Saw a thing once, maybe Mythbusters, that showed how beavers are attracted to the sound of running water and want to stop it. In the show, they got the beaver to dam a speaker by playing river/stream noises through it.

- Comment on I hate how anything without "world" in its name is just about the US 1 month ago:
I hear you and am guilty of it myself. I feel like it’s due to the anonymous nature of the internet. I think everyone immediately falls into the category of “peer” before putting a touch more thought into who the actual person (bot/ai) is that wrote the reply. Add that to the fact that most Americans see themselves (as a country) as the king of the world.
Maybe you can try typing with an accent, but I think that’d probably just be seen as a racist American.
- Comment on How come it seems for the past decades the Catholic Church has been plagued with sex crimes especially among young boys? How long has this been going on? Or did I just miss something up. 2 months ago:
That’s not just your country. That’s organized religion in every country.

It’s not legal to kill kids, but you can buy 'em a toy gun and then call the cops about suspicious activity in the area…
Can’t wait to see the first incident of a school cop killing a 2nd-grader who was bringing his toy to show-and-tell.

That answers my question, thank you.

Is the k-word (or close variant) integrated into the cultural language there in the same way the n-word is here?

I assume you are referring to supplying weapons to Israel, in which case, do you think Trump (who called Biden a ‘Palestinian’ as an insult during the debate) will be the better choice and stop supplying weapons to Israel?

And that moment lasted as long as the theoretical “now”.
(“Now” never happens because the moment your brain registers that “now” has happened, it’s already “then”)

Since when has not experiencing something, or even having any knowledge of something, prevented the internet from expressing their opinions about it?
- Comment on Shower thoughts are wasting water. 4 months ago:
So, when you take a shower, all you think is “scrub, scrub, scrub, scrub, rinse, rinse, rinse, rinse”?
When I shower, it’s all pretty automatic and muscle memory kinds of actions. My mind wanders all over the place, usually while listening to music /podcasts /audio books, but rarely do I think about the actual act of bathing.

Right!? Make this the election that was decided by porn!
May every porn site block every republican-lead district this election season with a full-page message stating that this is a direct result of republican policy. Then link to voting resources.

And that’s worse than being raped and beaten to death?
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 6 months ago:
It may ignore your reality, but the thing about experience is that it defines our realities, and the experiences of the women who responded make up reality as they see it. If they’ve had more negative experiences than positive ones, their reality is that the bear is a better option.
Based on so, so much of what I’ve heard/learned from my wife, female friends, co-workers, daughters, stories from numerous personalities from tv, film, and radio, MAGA, Andrew Fucking Tate, etc., I can’t say that I disagree with the choice.
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 6 months ago:
The known potential bad is better than the unknown potential bad. At least a bear won’t rape you before/while killing you.
IMO, the answer given exposes more about the life experiences of the women answerers, and the result seems to be that their experiences have been bad.

I wonder what percentage of these weird studies that make us ask “why are they spending money on that?” are being done by students working on theses and doctorates and whatnot, and what percentage are non-scholastic institutions asking for government funds to see if you can teach penguins to French kiss.

I read that part as being a mashup of two disparate things similar to the rest of the piece. The CD seems to be announcing things more frequently, and there are places where the highways have no speed limits, both of which are more straws on the camel of anxiety.
