  Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was “Oh no, not again.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oh yes daddy credit please⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It makes perfect sense when viewed from “the credit companies work with lenders to ensure your credit only rises if you’re constantly in more and more debt but still paying it like an obedient little wage slave”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honey is acidic with a pH of around 4, so it technically corrodes metal if left for prolonged contact.

  I make knives and I really want to let one sit in honey for a week to see if it gives it an acid wash.

  I have other acids that work much quicker, but I’m having a bit of a giggle at making a pattern-welded steel butter knife and calling it my “Honey Knife”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because we have knives already in our kitchens, and they don’t take up extra space in a drawer that would otherwise go to another more useful utensil.

  Also my cheese slicers have all been cheap as shit and snap after a few months, and the nice heavy duty one I had with a replaceable wire got lost in the move earlier this year and they discontinued it and I’m sad.

  I mean, you’re wrong about the intro, but ENT still gets a HELL YEAH from me.

  (the intro is a jam, but it’s so out of place for me I can’t enjoy it while binging, I usually listen to it in the car a few times while watching the show)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forever young⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly I can go 3 days without playing Rimworld and I’ve completely forgotten what was happening, and half of my mods are unfamiliar again so I have to start over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forever young⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was ranked in the top 10 for pistol kills in modern warfare 3 for over a year and a half.

  Then I lost interest in fps games for a few months. Tried to come back and play with some friends, and completely sucked ass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is lemmy dying?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw a post asking the same thing the day I joined lemmy dot world with my first account.

  That was a couple years ago now. I think I’m on my third instance?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Psychological Warfare & Manipulation using flattery.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Smeagol/Gollum wasn’t quite a hobbit, according to Tolkien.

  So either way, no evil hobbits.

  Even Lobelia Sackville-Baggins.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is capitalism or consumerism at fault?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “are corporations whose sole purpose is to extract as much money from the masses as possible with no thoughts to anything else up to and including destroying the house it occupies in order to maximize profits to blame for the world around us? Or is it those dirty fucking people with all their bad gross nasty purchasing of the things the corporation shoves down their throats?”

  I’m sorry but did a CEO write this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it too late to post something spooky?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Having a grimy, fingered little brother is always fun.

  Look, he may be grimy, but kink shaming isn’t cool. He can be fingered whenever he feels like it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LEGO Star Trek Enterprise REVIEW⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol

  Lmao, even

  I ain’t buying that shit. I will happily buy two 3d printers, upgrade them, and print a giant coffee table sized version before I spend that much on such a small set.

  Aliens have to figure out our vaginas from scratch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Guilty ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  On one hand, I have adhd and depression, and my parents definitely have at least depression. So I’m used to messes everywhere up to and including not seeing the floor for a week or more at a time.

  On the other hand, I feel bad when someone gets in my car and I have to move one or two items off the seat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Guy Claiming That You Have TDS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  On one hand, I have a coworker who clearly angrily scraped his trump stickers off the tailgate, and on the other, I have a coworker who straight up held a nazi salute with an audible “heil” when he started talking about his favorite band, Rammstein.

  Now I don’t know anything about Rammstein and their political views in general, but I’ve known a few Germans in my time and they all held very strong (negative) views on the nazi regime.

  Most coworkers have stopped talking about politics and such in general during breaks though.

  You’re still more patient Than I.

  It’s great that they’re rational enough to change their views in the face of evidence, even if it takes more evidence than it usual.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ok, boomer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  bit my tongue to not torpedo our relationship

  I’m so glad my wife is basically no contact with her parents, because I never have to play nice with them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mali imposes $10,000 visa bond on US visitors in reciprocal move⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  American chiming in: good. It’s only fair, if we want to charge you, you should be allowed to charge us.

  If no other country will let us in (except maybe refugee status if it gets to that point I suppose), then MAYBE, just MAYBE, people will begin to make forceful demands of the government and actually change things instead of checks notes blaming “trans antifa blm terrorists” for everything and ultimately saying “there’s nothing we can do”.

  Remember kids: the people outnumber the government, all we have to do is literally nothing and we could cripple it entirely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does the GOP think “ANTIFA” is bad?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Former Christian here: it is a cult. Full stop. You are throwing your decisions around based on a belief that there’s some magical perfect happy place we all get to go.

  Starting from that alone means we have VASTLY different goals. So many Cultists believe no matter what they do they’re still going to paradise so fuck whatever happens here.

  The staunch angry denial without a hint of reflection on how religion has undeniably damaged the world is very telling about what OP is willing to accept. I recognized religion has failed the world even when I was still religious.

  No, I don’t know there’s nothing after we die, but I DO know there are things HERE AND NOW that need more ACTUAL FUCKING WORK and your prayers are worth the toilet paper I’ll print them on.

  And I am so fucking tired of “well they aren’t TRUE Christians because we don’t get taught that” any of the many, many, many, many, TOO FUCKING MANY TIMES when Christians, ÉN MASSE , do shitty things. No TRUE scottsman… My brother in education, you cannot keep saying your religion is peaceful when it rather spectacularly and historically is extremely violent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EU Chat Control didnt pass - proving the media got to alot of you⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is exactly the dumb shit take from y2k.

  I Still hear people go on about how “it was supposed to be this big thing and then nothing happened! Smart people are so dumb!”

  Yeah nothing happened because a lot of smart people worked very hard to fix the goddamn problem, you fucking shitwaffle.

  Here? “You dum dums got so worked up thinking it would pass and then it didn’t, so the freak out was for nothing!” yeah it didn’t pass because a lot of Europeans got very upset about their governments trying to spy on them harder than ever.

  I’m not European, so I can’t say how people talked about it openly on the metro with random strangers, but online? People were vocal and pissed. A PROPER government (lol can we have some of that functioning democracy please) listens to its people. This was them listening to the people.

  The people’s reaction was appropriate, and necessary. And shouldn’t be lessened just because “lol you guys got so propaganda’d and it was obviously never gonna happen and I knew cause I’m so smart” is quite the take on things.
