Yeah the diamond hoe is my main tool for turtle egg harvesting. And that is a sentence I don’t think I could ever have imagined I would end up writing

It helps if you have a health issue that doesn’t affect your digestion too much. Severe intestinal issues might make it very difficult to eat plant-based diets, as plant-matter is pretty hard to digest and most plant-based proteins might be fully off the table as well.
Health issues can just fuck up everything you wouldn’t even think about, really. Hell, I’m trying to drink juice instead of water and eating a lot of salt on doctor’s orders, which is pretty much the opposite they’d usually tell you to do
- Comment on h8ers gonna h8 1 week ago:
I’d imagine “without land” was aimed more towards “can’t grow enough to be self-sufficient”. You can totally utilize even small places very well, but if you’re poor living in a tiny flat without much natural light it’s a pretty daunting task to grow enough anything to live off that. Just the electricity cost for the lamps might make it pretty hard depending where you live. I guess mushrooms instead of vegetables might work a bit better though
- Comment on My shitty frog effigy for cursing the tyrants, ultra-rich and genociders 1 week ago:
Oh, and if someone happens to be interested in the actual history, frog coffins were a real thing in Finnish folklore, though they were usually good luck charms. You’d bury them under the church floor, the closer the altar, the better. I also used juniper wood, which was considered the most pure and beautiful wood, so I’m taking creative liberties here! But the people of old are gone and forgotten, and so is their magic. I’d say magic is meant to change and grow as people do anyway, so if I can borrow even a bit from the old to create new, I think that’s enough to keep the spirit of it.
And a lot of the magic was indeed used for curses, so I’m keeping that tradition alive for sure - Comment on My shitty frog effigy for cursing the tyrants, ultra-rich and genociders 1 week ago:
The traditional way would require an actual frog corpse, so this was the most ethical way I could make it (and it’s not like I have plentiful access to frog corpses). If it helps, I made the frog look very mean on purpose
- Comment on My shitty frog effigy for cursing the tyrants, ultra-rich and genociders 1 week ago:
Here’s a quick translation of the spell I cast on it, it’s a curse of rotting. I left out the most secret part and I won’t reveal the actual ritual either, but the curse itself should tell what it contained. Next I’m going to bury the effigy in it’s coffin in the old graveyard after the sun sets, to finish the curse.
Now, do I believe in this stuff? Well, no. This is more of a play for me, to keep some magic in the world, and old traditions alive. Or maybe I’m lying, and just covering my tracks so nobody can blame me of anything. Who knows, the internet is full of weirdos. But hey we all have our ways to deal with all of this shit, some get drunk, others turn to witchcraft
Women oozing hate, rancid men,
half-wit enablers, genociders,
filthy rich acting like pigs, those that have raped even children,
every greedy fucker that’s robbing the eco-sphere;(I command) meat melt away, guts rot,
(become) full of pus heads mean and stupid,
gnaw those bones, bad cancer,
every one of you fascists, putrefy alive;in behalf of the weakest, I become hateful,
I curse with blood, I curse with iron,
I curse with spit and salt,
I cover (them) with ash too,
like this, cruelly in revenge I chastise the ones destroying(/shitting on) the world. - Comment on My shitty frog effigy for cursing the tyrants, ultra-rich and genociders 1 week ago:

It’s still been cheaper than the alternatives if you buy for multiple people, and has most of my native country’s artists at this point. I’d like to switch, but I’m worried the other services don’t offer enough finnish music, and just couple euros more is a lot of money when you are poor.
Of course you could say “don’t pay for these if you’re poor”, but it’s the only subscription I’m paying for, and I feel like abandoning every single thing that can still bring me joy is kinda asking for my depression peak so I’m back to trying to hang myself again.Though the moment I hear adds or the price increases again, I’ll obviously switch immediately

It reads just like something John Irving would write
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, why go through the trouble? My analysis on him as a nordic neighbor is that he’s just some random middle-class swedish guy, that got big and tried to live like he’s regular dude instead taking responsibility for such a big influence.
A lot of the controversy seems to stem from USAians thinking he’s one of them just because he’s seen as american white, not understanding that he comes from an entirely different culture. For example I didn’t personally even grasp what a voldemort-type of a thing “n-word” is across the ocean until he did the bridge idiocy, and I doubt he understood either. There exists nothing like that in nordic cultures, we can say pretty much anything and the “forbidden words” are more just “don’t call people that”. The history of racism here is very different
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
He’s read and reviewed all sorts of books, but as far as I know the only questionable one of those was the first Jordan Peterson thing (which he did criticize as well), so I don’t know how a single book he’s never talked about would flag him as anything. Sure, if he actively tried to preach what’s written in it or encourage people to read that stuff, but I agree that just owning some book is a pretty poor basis for accusations.
He has the platform, so if he’s a raging racist or antisemitist, why isn’t he using that for preaching those then?

Yeah, me and my partner have been together for over ten years. We’re both ace, so sex hasn’t been on the table from the start and we’re both fine with it. Though I’m aro too, so who the fuck even knows how this works - but hey it does, so who cares.
You really don’t need to follow some stupid norms about how relationships should be

And some stay up all night to watch the fire and be the guard when everyone else sleeps. And some see and remember the weather patterns and can tell when it’s a good weather and when the winter is going to come. And some look at the stars and the moon and can always remember and tell the directions where to go. And some know all the animal tracks and know all the animal sounds. And some smell and taste a lot better when things are funky, so nobody dies. And…

Also does anyone actually have info about in what context Hawking is mentioned in the files? That makes all the difference here, I’d imagine
- Comment on Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month 1 month ago:
It doesn’t have custom emoji support, which is one of the reasons Discord even got such a large userbase (a lot of people are paying for nitro only to get the general custom emoji support). Maybe some forks (or whatever the proper term is) do have that, but those seem to be hard to find and even harder to convince anyone to use

Cucumber is very bitter. Smells and tastes like some sort of chemicals. Same for watermelon, it just doesn’t smell as bad
- Comment on Top of the world, ma 1 month ago:
Just let people live their life how they want to
I’d rather have them not climb the damn mountain though. It’s become a sort of tourist trap -thing (literally), there’s people selling commercial climbings and all. It’s extremely wasteful and them littering the place with all their trash (like extra oxygen tanks) and then with their corpses is disgusting and kind of insulting considering Sagarmatha has some religious significance to locals as well

The optimal “daylight” is about 5700-5800K. It’s not blue then, but pure white.
(I know this because that’s the optimal for parrots. They also have to have UV lights as an extra though, they need that for health and to see their full spectrum)
- Comment on If tomato is a fruit then lasagna is a fruit tart. 2 months ago:
It’s a pretty common food all around the nordics, yeah. It’s usually made for all sorts of celebrations from birthdays to funerals. People describe these things as delicious, so even if you think it’s a cursed concept, you should probably give it a taste it if you ever can. And that cream-thing is not mayo, it’s usually sourcream or some mix of it
