- Comment on Why do so many hand dryers not dry hands? Am I doing something wrong? 1 week ago:
I have taken to doing the hand-washing gestures I learned during the pandemic. Helps dry my hands quite well. Funnily enough, I think I lost the habit of washing my hands that way, now going for a quicker method. Don’t even know when that happened

Yeah, I did notice Hydrogen where Helium ought to be. Other than that, though, the rest seems okay far as I know of the periodic table (meaning anything till about Uranium, in order)

- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:
Well, maybe not eternity, but that sure is a whołe lot of time for someone who’ll be around for probably less than 100 years (not sure why 100 is the number I think of when I think of an age limit to life. Is this a common occurrance, folks? Or just me? I mean, I do know some people go past it, but still…)
- Comment on YSK that only by being yourself will you find people who like the real you. No one can beat you at being you, but you’ll only ever be second best at pretending to be someone else. 4 weeks ago:

That’s precisely the scary part. A nothingness, for all of eternity. It ends, never to continue. I do not know what it is like. Just… not seeing. Not hearing. None of the senses, and no thoughts either. No consciousness.
I wouldn’t be scared after dead, cuz I’dn’t have the consciousness for that. However, being alive, I can. I can fear the eternal nothingness of inexistence
I think this may or may not have some connection to a post from that monkey in the brain guy who also has a TED Talk (Tim Something?). I recall seeing a post of his about life or something. Talked about how short our lives are in the grand scheme of things. Had even an image with days or weeks or months of life, like a progress bar
On the other hand, reading that people actually close to death don’t worry as much as people imagining being close to death, iirc, may have had a positive impact in my fear. Though I recalln’t well
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:
Idk, sounds kinda scary. Idk what it was like before, because I lacked consciousness to experience it. And the idea that it all ends, back to nothingness forever. We live a few years. Pretty much nothing, if we consider the forever before, and the forever after our existence.
It’s something I recall fearing as a kid, due to the scary unknown. Glad to have enjoyed a decade of bliss. Too bad the fear has come back to haunt me. It’s not constant, though. Sometimes it comes, outta nowhere. Real strong. Not fun. But I don’t live day to day in fear.

Just like The Butterfly Effect ending we watched in class!

Claridryl may not be right for everyone. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist. Some patients experience side effects, including dry mouth, dizziness, double vision, reflexive memory, aggression, and fatigue. Do not use if you suffer from high blood pressue or neurological dysfunction. Call your doctor if you experience an inability to concentrate, stiff muscles, sores, or trouble walking. Do not take Claridryl before bed or immediately upon waking up. Insomnia has been reported with Claridryl and drugs like it. In some cases, the insomnia can become permanent and lead to stroke or death. Other risks include headaches, seizures, trouble swallowing, impared motor skills, extreme paranoia, loss of time, muscle twitches and spasms…

I just find it kinda weird and annoying how y’all can turn unrelated topics into US news and politics. As someone who has never set foot there, I know way more than I need to about it because of how widespread your news and politics are, and how much it comes my way even when unrelated to the topic at hand.

And that’s not just a win for companies. The fact that my metadata is out there is great for me as a user. Like with targeted ads – I get tons of coupons from cool restaurants.

When you log into YouTube, a patented recog device does read your anus to confirm your identity. Its CCDs convert light into text-based codes, which represent your unique fingerprint of anal terrain.

- Comment on Google just broke *all* third-party web clients, including yt-dlp; a full JS implementation is now required. 4 weeks ago:
Well, I sure hope this doesn’t come to be. I don’t wanna use their official website, the 3rd party tools are great! But YouTube has become an essential part of my everyday life…
And yes, I have looked into alternatives. They lack what YouTube got, which is the creators I already like (pretty much all of them exclusive to YouTube). Best I could get is copycats. You might be able to find something similar, but not the same (unless you like tech, I guess. If all you consume is tech, you won’t lack options (especially if you don’t care for specific creators))

Fun pop song made by a team of songwriters? Cool.
Solo singer-songwriter writing from their heart and hatred for women & LGBT? GTFO
If it is fun, it is fun. If I like it, I like. Don’t care for details. So long as it’s not hurtful or offensive, I don’t GAFOS
