Some people evidently do not hear a voice in their head. It generally blows the minds of people who do, but minds are so varied its possible we’re misunderstanding each other when discussing voices in head. Similar to the question if two people see red, but only know it’s red because someone taught them, can we be absolutely sure we both experience the exact same “red”?

If your mental white balance is off, everything would vary in the same amount, but if you could b9th project the image you see somehow into another mind it would look different.

I got beat regularly, and my stepfather at the time used to do stuff like make me wait in the basement for 30 mins, then he’d slowly walk down the stairs with his belt unbuckled so we could hear the jingling in each step, then he’d tell us some scriptures and say this hurt him more than us.

Then if you cried right away it was faking, but if you held on too long it was you being rebellious and stubborn, so my brother and I learned to start faking our cries after the 6th or 7th hit.

I told that to friends as an adult as what I thought was a kinda funny story, and they properly realized I was abused in a somewhat sadistic way and pointed it out to me.

They weren’t calling me out for having a different environment, they were correcting my incorrect belief that it was normal or acceptable.

People are doing the same for you. You made it out safely, but giving unstable teens access to guns is definitely a risk that probably shouldn’t be taken. Survivor bias isn’t an excuse to say it’s fine.

Occam’s razor. Which is more likely: Punkie made a mistake in wording when describing the situation, or the security team, who is very likely completely unaware of Punkie and Julie’s relationship plus as noted later has no idea who Julie is made up out of thin air that Punkie convinced a stranger on the phone that one of their junior staff convinced said strangers daughter to run away?

A bit confused, are you reacting to sadistic? That word doesn’t mean evil, it means enjoying giving pain to others. There are murders that aren’t as sadistic, as they could try to poison someone in sleep etc, giving no pain.

The wording is suggesting they very much enjoyed the process of committing the murder, making it more painful on purpose.

I got hit in the eye (long story short, my cousin learned to throw cards like Gambit and nailed me straight in the eye).

I was seeing flashes so went to an eye doctor, and they warned me of retinal detachment. Aside from the flashes, a sudden increase in floaters is another warning sign.

Well, it did say harmless. Mosquitoes cause more than 700000 deaths per year.

I’ve met a bunch. Usually takes a while to find out they’re vegan. Aside from maybe having something in their cubicle, I’ve never found em to be preachy or anything. Honestly I’ve only experienced harsh vegan kickback online.

While I didn’t downvote nor did it bother me much, making jokes on topics that enrage or trigger people is bound to have at least some negative reaction. This is about a woman arrested and almost sent to prison because something that has a percentage of always occurring happened to her, and terrible people want to punish her. It’s scary.

Ahmad Arbery case scared me because I’m black, live in GA (literally lived in White GA at the time, down the street from a lumbermill with Confederate and MAGA flags), and do like exploring, especially if walking. I had seen people with Confederate flags on trucks giving me what appeared to be hard looks (but who knows, maybe just resting bitchface).

I know some people use humor around hard topics to cope, but it can easily feel like our quite concrete fears are being joked away dismissively.

I can imagine me using the force but I still can’t levitate my phone.

I’ve used it for pulled chicken for a soup. I believe the instructions said boil, but I pressure cook/steam it for a few mins then add it into the muchbmore flavorful soup. Though I just as often just use canned chicken breast instead.

Only thing I’ve ever done that for, since I love chicken to have a browned somewhat firm to crunchy crust, depending on which cut it is.

They(the ones who liked crusades and auch) probably want Bethlehem taken back from the “heathens” and returned properly to “gods chosen people” or something.

Someone is into OP or whoever is in gold, at least for now. Even if you don’t find it cool, flatter to keep conversation and interest. It could be genuine as in finding interest in anything your crush is into interesting, or be just practical.

Also, people are attractive/interesting when they speak about stuff they’re passionate about. Lots of people will listen to you blab on about something they know nothing about or care nothing about if you interest them in your delivery.

At least a few months back Alex Jones was bragging about finally converting Rogan to his side. He’d been telling his audience for years he’s been working on getting Rogan to take his stance.

For some reason my post wouldn’t post. Anyway, here’s a video demonstration youtu.be/W4DnuQOtA8E

It uses balloons filled with water and air and small firecracker explosions to show how different the pressures on your body would be (especially organs like lungs, digestive tissue, which would have air/gasses in them).

I can still see it… maybe an instance thing?

It was messy, but I still loved it. Them my body spontaneously became allergic to eggs. A tragic loss to my taste buds, especially since a lot of the Asian foods I love like to include eggs (Ramen, fried rice, Omurice, Kimbap, oyakodon, etc etc).

Look up the Cadaver Synod. He’s smoking historical facts.

Ireland too iirc, as it became an Alex Jones talking point for a while that someone in Ireland said they needed 4 million immigrants to prevent similar issues. The person was just using that as a measure, and iirc it’s quite a while in the past so not sure if it’s the same today.

This might be a niche reference but… “4 stars, go home and tell your mother you’re brilliant.”

I’m in my 40s and wasn’t aware of his comedy career.

I work in IT and don’t want to have to use annoying long passwords, so I’ve been team mfa for at least a decade now. I had physical code devices for SWOTR and FFXIV until I got a software one for the latter. I don’t play the former much but I still have a working physical key somewhere.

In fact, I’m more annoyed when a service still uses texting your phone and no option to use a mfa app.

An American Tale for me and my closest(in age) siblings. Bonus because while my older brother and I were American born, we moved out of the country when I was 2, and my younger sister was born outside the states. We saw the movie first overseas, then often when we came back to the US (7 for me).

Calebcity and Prozd skits often go straight in also.

You know tons of “Dems” have tons of criticisms for Obama and Biden?

Also you both sides people ignore that one side is mostly incompetent while the other literally wants to actively harm minorities, LGBTQ+, immigrants etc. Biden has been getting a ton of shit for his Israel/Palestine response as well as his union issues. In addition, some of his stances in the past.

Even comedic songs mocking that Biden was literally the only choice.

Nah, if jealous they’d try it themselves. Nah, this is the guy who does a mediocre job, then thinks the people who actually do it well are just doing it to make him look bad.

You sure we aren’t talking about Andromeda?

I wouldn’t hit you for a slur. I will write you off as a asshole. As for the South Park thing, the reveal is specifically calling put what you said about it sounding the same. Let’s preface this by saying I don’t watch much South Park, really just small clips like these to get context.

Additional context is understanding South Park likes to bring up social issues in offensive ways, which some find funny and others find distasteful. I’m pretty sure when it started it was just a joke, though one to make fun of shows with one black character. The retcon to me just feels like an evolution of the joke as humor, sensitivities, and acknowledgement of these issues grew. Plus hopefully the writers matured (as mentioned, I really only see popular clips so not sure).

To me, the way the Tolkien thing played out felt like it was similar to ManBearPig. The latter is technically a self own; they mocked climate change in the past and are now saying it’s true and they were wrong.

Is the apology genuine? I couldn’t say, I don’t know them. I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt though.

Now it might just be my bias, but I feel O’Brien was taunting trolling, while the hard-right guy was posturing. Of the two, I expect the hard-right guy to be more of the unstable child in the situation, but also agree probably not willing to actually fight. With O’Brien or however it’s spelled, I feel like getting that reaction was his win… but again probably a lot of personal bias.

Substitute Hitler for a religious figure. Yes, I know, religious figures at least have mythology surrounding them to explain why they’re still relevant. Anyone could just make that up about Hitler too though.

Chiquita. Banana republics. Check them death tolls.

I killed my Cyberpunk game trying to mod it. I just changed the installation directory, re-download, and loaded from cloud save when I got sick of trying to fix it. It’s so easy to recover from stuff like that nowadays.

This one got me into Star Ocean (2) back on ps1, and I think it’s been my favorite/most impactful. Might just be because of it being the first one.

chatokun ,

Same. I’m sure I’ve posted about my location, my job, my race, my history, my real first name, general details of my family makeup etc. I also have a pretty unique name so searching just my first and last name will find stuff about me anyway. I’m even listed by name in books (I was young and dumb and answered some questions about work life).

Unfortunately they often kill siblings (not that the death of parents wasn’t unfortunate, but at least they have some culpability).

I’m under the impression that those countries are more convenient for the company, either having locations or it being more convenient to arrange pay or something, based on the inclusion of American rather than an ethnic background.

Edit also it says nationality rather than Heritage, so it’s pointing to what country you have citizenship with.

My ADHD brain can’t focus well on cleaning unless I get that weird hyperfocus on it. Last time I got it it lasted a couple days and I got a Lotta things done. It was nice.

They have milk. They just sweat it instead. I learned about it in a documentary about what two kids are doing during their 104 days of summer vacation.

Sorta the concept behind Twisted Translations, previously known as Google Translate Sings. Though they are intentionally getting a bad result by feeding the Translations through several languages before coming back to English.

Woman buying pot from NYC deli maced, dragged by hair, kicked in head by cashier who mistook her for trans (www.nydailynews.com)

A Staten Island woman buying pot from a local deli got into a misunderstanding with the cashier — who ended up macing her, dragging​ her outside by her hair, kicking her in the head and mistakenly calling her trans.

chatokun ,

They’ve also been stoking the “Black women look trans” narrative for a while, especially focused on Michelle Obama. I listen to Knowldge Fight so I’ve heard so many disgusting Alex Jones clips of him calling her Mike.
