Something with mental health workload I believe. His wife is running the channel now which is okay but its different. I really hope he’s doing well but understandable that any youtuber could get burned out, especially with the subject matter he was covering.

Beau of the Fifth Column introduced me to this quote, not sure if he started it.

- Comment on Pizza is a tomato pie. 5 weeks ago:
Oh that makes more sense, yeah. However, I’m not sure theres 100% an unbroken line but Ancient Greeks had the word pitta, meaning flatbread and *bheid- is the Proto-Indo-European root meaning to split or to bite that it comes from. So it seems potential time travelers asking for pizza by name stand a decent chance of getting the point across right back into the neolithic.

Emojis were a mistake.
- Comment on Pizza is a tomato pie. 5 weeks ago:
Technically even 2500BC in ancient Sumer they had flatbreads and the ability to bake them with toppings, I think potentially you’re underestimating the age of the pizza by an order of magnitude.
- Comment on "Refrigerate after opening and store in the refrigerator door." Why the door for this mayo? 5 weeks ago:
Opening the door regularly helps agitate and keep the mayonaise from overly congealing.

- Comment on YSK about Psyllium husk 1 month ago:
consistency like toothpaste squeezing out of a tube
This seems way too soft, like isn’t it supposed to firm up a bit before you poop it out? Like, if I wipe 3 times and I still have soft poop behind the sphincter that ain’t right. Ideally I’m thinking like ripe peeled banana or a little harder, you know? Actually drop a few logs rather than the soft-serv shape from the emoji. Maybe this is 80s-90s thinking though, from when dog poop was white.
- Comment on How come hypothetically if I make meth in my home. Knowing full well it could explode and take out my neighbors houses, why am I not charged with attempted murder? 1 month ago:
I thought it was more noxious fumes from meth production that were the main hazard, rather than explosivity.

I downvoted corn all day but this I support
- Comment on Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium" 1 month ago:
Same, the algorithm seems to do recommendations a little better too but that might be my imagination.
- Comment on Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium" 1 month ago:
I pay for premium to get rid of ads. Not convinced that adblockers will be a permanent and privacy friendly option but havent really explored it. But anything faster than maybe 2.35x is unintelligible, and not worth usint due to sound “tearing” issues (youtube lets you adjust it in 0.05x increments)
- Comment on Corn or something idk 1 month ago:
Biblehub has a Greek text option and full translation of words if you want to dive in. Most of the ideas I picked up from Dr. Ammon Hillman who has a couple of books out from several years ago, you can find quite a few interviews with him online and he livestreams at least weekly. Quite a fertile field of study, the differences in Bible texts between English/Latin and the original Greek.
- Comment on Corn or something idk 1 month ago:
The modern translation is a fairytale but if you get into the original Greek bible texts and supporting and opposing texts from Greco-Roman civilization it paints a very interesting picture of the corruption of the ancient world into the situation we call Western Civilization today. Hopeful eras where humanity improved like the Renaissance and the American Revolutionary War were in large part due to study and reemergence of pre-Christian pagan ideas from Greek antiquity.
- Comment on Corn or something idk 1 month ago:
Considering how in the original Greek text of the New Testament the Apostles were all described as being between 10 and 19 years of age hanging out with 30-something year old Jesus, and how Jesus’ crucifixion was a result of him being caught in the middle of the night in the Garden of Gesthemane (Mark 14:51-52) with a naked boy, yeah I’d say they have a complicated relationship with gay molestation of the underage.
Certainly not the mainstream view taught in church but classical philologist Dr. Ammon Hillman has the receipts.
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 1 month ago:
True enough. Hey if we try hard enough maybe gen Z can reevaluate it - let’s include Gen Jones and the Xennials and Zillenials
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 1 month ago:
I mean let’s count - boomers, gen x, millenials, gen z is only 4 generations later. Generation gamma or delta can decide if it’s a redeemable symbol and I cant imagine they’ll care all that much what their great (great) grandparents generation thought about it.
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 1 month ago:
1 occasionally the user base freaks the fuck out and starts spamming the same thing, like this. I don’t like Nazis, but that also means I don’t want literally everything on my funny picture site to be about keeping them out. 2 increasingly all the popular stuff isn’t memes at all, but shitting on trump and musk.
Doesnt sound all that different from here especially on #1, case in point beans, jeans and more recently corn for some reason
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 1 month ago:
My neighbor uses Imgur as his main social media. I take that with a grain of salt though since he’s a millenial who only used flip phones til 2022, there are dozens like him, dozens!

I believe 7 generations is the gold standard

This is a big reason I hope/hoped Lemmy/Piefed/Fediverse sees widespread adoption in the future. It’s basically the same userbase and memes in every community, with some small exceptions.

I think this is the answer. I’ve seen similarly conspicuous altruism from Juggalos.
- Comment on One in four unconcerned by sexual deepfakes created without consent, survey finds 2 months ago:
I think the argument will eventually end up in the uncanny valley, like obviously it’s legal to draw a shitty little cartoon of someone engaged in sex but as it becomes closer to photorealism it becomes illegal? Is photoshopping someone’s head onto a porn star illegal? I mainly dont like laws like this because it bring politicians that are ignorant about AI into legislating it on the basis of it being about scandalous sex related stuff, generally to sell more surveillance.
- Comment on If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save? 2 months ago:
Nah just destroy them all, maybe I can get my friends to learn Bridge with me. If not, Canasta will suffice.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 2 months ago:
Nope, you’re thinking of the Lost Generation, nope Silents were called that because like Gen X, they were fewer in number than the post-war Boomers, and becuase they were generally known for being cautious and thrifty, having grown up in the shadow of WWII but too young to fight in it.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 2 months ago:
I think it’s more about easy portability than discretion.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 2 months ago:
Not sure if you’re implying it but the Silent generation was sandwiched between the Greatest and the Boomers.
