Hope you’re doing well! Best wishes!

American healthcare sucks unless you’re rich

Babalugats , to mildlyinfuriating in I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07.

Not sure where based op, but a pizza counter top oven (5 minutes) is around €80 in Europe since inflation, but can still be found for around €60 in sales. I guess if there are similar ovens and similar prices that would mean if you find yourself getting pics more than 3 times a year from Dominos, then maybe buy one of those (e.g. Arieta 909 or G3ferrari) It would work out cheaper. Make the dough, buy the toppings put them all in the freezer. No smell other than the same smell from cooked pizza.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s not a smell I can handle. I stay in my office in the garage when pretty much any food is cooked or delivered and then have them leave the oven extraction fan on for 15-30 minutes. That usually brings the smell down to mildly unpleasant for about half an hour until I think I must get used to it.

Yes this was 1.0, 2.0 improved the tech by going under instead of over. Much more convenient single hand operation as well as pet protection.

I go over hand and my one handed TP game is on point.

Get good.

someguy3 , to science_memes in No red circle. Not sure this one checks out.

Coincidence? I think not!

WarmSoda OP ,

Kind of crazy how opportunistic astroids can be.

CableMonster , to memes in Also "parasite".

You guys should put in this much effort and hate to the government. Billionaires play very little role in my life, but the government is in every aspect, but for some reason we are focusing on them.

BobGnarley ,

For real lol just a nice diversion to distract everyone from the real problem.

Leviathan ,

The government is directly controlled by their individual billionaires.

CableMonster ,

I somewhat agree, but the influence on the government spans much more than billionaires. The powerful do control much of the government, but its also a bunch of assholes that abuse their power.

Routhinator ,
@Routhinator@startrek.website avatar

They are paid to abuse that power, by the billionaires. The billionaires also pay them to keep folks fighting over any topic that keeps the people away from realizing what they are up to. Usually most of the more ridiculous claims from folks at outlets like Fox come right before billionaires cram themselves a tax break into an omnibus bill or repeal some fundamental human right or cut critical parts of your social services and supports.

CableMonster ,

I agree but its more than just the billionaires. For instance where I live there are no billionaires and the government is still the biggest thorn in my side.

Leviathan ,

Where do you live?

CableMonster ,

Idaho. How about you?

Oh wow that was a close call, imagine if that hit the building, the insurance would definitely have gone up!

thefartographer ,

My premiums went up just looking at it!

callouscomic , to memes in This pisses me off so much

Also no helmets. Can’t cover the face even when wildly impractical.

CaptPretentious ,

You probably meant motorcycle helmets My mind immediately went to Avengers Endgame. Everyone removing their helmet everytime they had anything to say… Was an awful direction

LANIK2000 ,

I honestly don’t get it. Recently read a manga and they ACTUALLY WORE THEIR BLOODY HELMETS DURING BATTLE! It was glorious! Occasional a stray bullet destroys the helmet sadly…but for a large chunk of it all, they actually fucking wear them! You could still tell who is who by body proportions, dialog and context so that wasn’t really an issue. Also it’s hella dramatic to take off the helmet after battle or when trying to negotiate with someone. It just makes soo much more sense!

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Feels like the issue is to not cover the actor’s face because that’s where the perceived value are. Drawn media doesn’t have that issue, so they can do it in a creative way.

LANIK2000 ,

Honestly, I despise the feeling of recognizing an actor. All I can think about in that moment is the other movie’s character and it just breaks immersion while confusing my little ape brain.

Also they do the same in drawn media too. The anime adaptation for example features 0 helmets.

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Yeah, seeing RDJ on other role is so weird after being so recognisable as Ironman. It’s no wonder he wanna end the role to break off from typecasted, ironically at the time where MCU is at its peak.

Also what’s that manga? Seems interesting 👀

LANIK2000 ,

Youjo Senki. And the anime adaptation does not do it justice. It feels like a completely different story xD

GiveOver ,

And when they have sci-fi helmets they have bright lights shining at their face. Surely that would be annoying.

Better hope it was native or that lyric is very irresponsible.

You’re right. I doubt he checked the little plastic thing stuck in the soil with it.

Don’t worry, even if things end up a bit, too heavy we’ll all float on, alright!

How is that a lyric in a song I’ve heard a million times

WarmSoda OP ,

Be…cause it’s a song you heard a lot?
I’m just guessing tho

brbposting ,

But never really _ heard_ apparently

WarmSoda OP ,

Gotcha. Nice, that whole album is great. The albums before are arguably even better.

Sequentialsilence , to asklemmy in What is the right way to have your toilet paper?

According to the patent (US465588A) it should be over.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

If it’s under spiders can make a nest between the toilet paper and the wall so you’re wiping your ass or coochie with that.

Late2TheParty ,
@Late2TheParty@lemmy.world avatar

Well great. New fear unlocked.

bobs_monkey ,

I mean, you were given eyes for a reason. Also, how often do you go to the bathroom that warrants enough time for a spider to build a web??

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Do you not take vacations and work from home in your one bathroom place?

bobs_monkey ,

Uh, huh? I take some trips here and there, don’t work from home, but I’ve never had spiders make up a web between the tp and wall, and I live in the mountains where those dudes are everywhere.

card797 ,

You’ll get spiders in your coochie!

bobs_monkey ,
herrcaptain ,

It’s not quite the same, but … I swear, literally this morning while doing my business one of my bathroom spiders snuck under my slightly raised heel just to chill. If I’d put my foot down that’d be the end of that creature, but by luck I moved my foot instead to find a quarter-sized spider just hanging out where my bare foot had just been.

Side-note: This particular spider is called Hex because it’s missing two legs. I believe I found those legs right by the toilet a few weeks before I met my new pooping pal. I’ve always wondered how it lost them.

MajorMajormajormajor ,

one of my bathroom spiders

I’m sorry, what? You have multiple bathroom spiders?

herrcaptain ,

Yup! We live in a basement and have this deal with the spiders that they’ll be left alone as long as they stay off the furniture. For some reason we basically only see them in the bathroom but the occasional time they’ve been bad, they get exiled to the laundry room.Usually there are 3-5 out that we can see at any given time. Most are very tiny ones that chill in webs, but a few are hunters that are much more mobile. Those that stick around or do something notable get named after a while. Other than Hex there’s been …

Peeping Tom who lived in a web in front of the toilet and just watched you. Sometimes, usually after someone showered and there was condensation in the room, he’d take a little jaunt around his “porch”. He disappeared one day under mysterious circumstances. While hoping for his safe return I took the opportunity to clean around his home and accidentally sucked it up with a hand vacuum.

Marina, who was originally named Mario as I rescued her from the sink - the name was changed when I suspected her to be a girl due to her looking like a bigger version of a species we sometimes see. She was my fave as she was always up to something and was very active. We think she was huffing caulking as after we redid it she loved to sit on the new caulk, leading us to childishly say she was “addicted to caulk.” We were genuinely concerned about her addiction though as it seemed unhealthy. I once saw her awkwardly chase down a pill millipede. You wouldn’t think it possible for something a few mm across to look embarrassed, but I swear she did after she bit it in the ass and it ran off unphased. I think she was too tiny to pierce its exoskeleton. She’s recently disappeared and I’m legit sad and hoping she’s just off on one of her adventures.

I then recycled the name Mario for one who I had to quickly scoop out of the sink when I was running the water and hadn’t noticed because he was so tiny. I was proud of myself as, despite what you may think I’m slightly arachnophobic. (I was very arachnophobic before we started keeping them as free-range pets / housemates.)

Big Bertha, who lived in parts unknown but would often show up in the bathroom at night. She had a habit of temporarily stealing the webs of the resident spiders for a few hours before departing. Usually the other spider would fuck off and watch from a distance, but once I saw her in there just staring down the owner. To my knowledge, she never hurt them though.

It’s possible that Hex is actually Big Bertha, as he/she/it (I’m sure I’m misgendering the hell out of them all) has a similar personality.

Can you possibly tell that we cannot currently get pets due to our living situation? We’re making do with what the basement provides for companionship.

Are we really beholden to the past like that? Things change, and hopefully improve. I know most people say over but my argument for under is that it can do everything over can… But, due to the extra friction, I can also tear it one-handed by ripping fast and the roll won’t continue spinning.

dustyData , to insanepeoplefacebook in The "buildings exist, therefore history is a lie" person added an explanation. It really doesn't help.

It’s the idiot’s curse. A cage of their own making. To believe that because they’re incapable of understanding how it was done or they themselves lack the skill and imagination to figure how do it, therefore no one understands or can do it.

eskimofry ,

My own explanation is that their arrogance doesn’t allow them to even conceive how our ancestors could be engineers.

Edit:

Ironically, people like our ancestors survived… whereas a majority of humans today would perish if you pull the plug on electricity.

Tar_alcaran ,

History is built on a mountain of corpses. The default answer to “what would they do if something went wrong”, has almost always been “die horribly”.
