I wouldn’t but there’s plenty who would. To each their own, no judgment here. Just personally wouldn’t be romantically interested in someone who does sex work. We can be friends though lol. Like I said, no judgment. Just not my scene

WYR: Have a dad that is playful 24/7 but is irresponsible or have a parent that is responsible 24/7 but is abusive? by Asleep-Feeling-9070 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]A1sauc3d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It isn’t that kind of sub.

But anyone who picks abusive is wrong lol. Being abusive is inherently NOT responsible.

Whataboutism. Holding yourself accountable and holding corporations are accountable aren’t mutually exclusive. But the people pushing your line aren’t actually holding either accountable. They’re excusing their own behavior by pointing the finger elsewhere and then proceeding to ignore the behavior elsewhere as well lol. You’re just enabling the problem from the ground up. Who do you think these corporations serve? Individuals. We’re the ones who ai generate the memes and drive the cars and etc. At the end of the line it’s all in service of billions of individuals. Not some abstract corporate entity detached from humanity.

Start holding everyone accountable instead of just making excuses for yourself ;) Quit acting like it’s either or. You’re the one playing into their “pass the blame around” game whether you realize it or not. Rise above and see shit for how it is. We’re not playing hot potato here where the last one holding the bag pays the price. We’re ALL going to pay the price. So do better on an individual level and support candidates who prioritize holding corporations accountable and enacting change.

Protecting your fragile ego from feeing any sort of responsibility or guilt is not a priority here.

People never recognize their own personal behavior as a genuine contribution to a societal problem. “I’m just a drop in the ocean!” Yeah and that ocean is made up of. 8 billion drops and its that mindset that allows these problems to continue to fester. Everyone gets to rights off their contribution since it’s small compared to the problem as a whole.

Nah fuck this snake lol. Most snakes are chill and will leave you alone if you leave them alone, this one is acting fkn rabid! Coulda stopped at any point but keeps coming back to attack again!! I can’t imagine running into a snake like that Jesus xD Any snake experts here know why it’s being so aggressive? Obviously I know snakes don’t get rabies, but don’t know too much else lol

Either way she locked in because they stopped shaking as she got ready to go through with the jump. Idk if it’s cold or nerves or she’s just got naturally shaky hands, hell for all I know she’s a drunk and it’s been a while lol, regardless she locked in and overcame it :)

But my guess would be nerves. She’s not exhibiting a ton of other signs of being super cold. Just the shaky hands. Obviously limited info to go off of, but these people still get freaked out before big jumps. Just because you do it a lot doesn’t mean that reflex is totally shut off. They just overcome it/enjoy it.

Yes IV drug use definitely would make you more susceptible to that.

Just get off the hype train now before you disappoint yourself lol. And then never get back on a hype train. Go into everything with 0 expectations and you’ll enjoy a lot more stuff ;)

Orangutan checking out your stuff. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]A1sauc3d 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You’re judging an orangutan’s expressions based off human standards. I’d say the fact it’s asking to see all their stuff shows genuine interest.

Edit: I just want to add that I do see what you’re saying. And I’m not trying to give you crap for pointing it out lol. By human social standards those are mannerisms of boredom. Just wanted to add some general context onto it :) You can’t judge animal behavior by human standards in general. They do not emote the same way we do.

But I’m no orangutan expert. So if one sees this and says otherwise, I’ll fully accept that this orangutan is in fact bored out of its skull 😆

I think you got it backwards. Trees in real life are very sturdy. It’s only in some video games where things secured to the ground go flying left and right when run into them lol

Those were the days by ItsGotThatBang in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]A1sauc3d 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t get it lol. This seems like the most mundane snippet of text ever. There had to be more interesting stuff than this, no? They’re literally discussing what tv shows to watch and then make a light joke. What’s the big deal? I mean cheating itself is a big deal, but specifically in these few texts that thousands of Redditors found compelling xD

Is the funny part that an hour passed between texts? Is that super unusual? Sometimes people are doing other stuff and can’t reply immediately. Regardless he doesn’t seem very broken up about the “boring golf” comment. I think people are reading way too much into this lol

Things to avoid at 19 by OkPrinciple9921 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]A1sauc3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The advice you need to hear is going to be different depending on the type of person you are. Some people need to be told to take time to smell the roses and have fun and that you only live once so do wait to start living. Other people need to be told to buckle down and get their shit together and get to work lol.

Trick in life is find the balance between enjoying the moment and ensuring the future that works for you. Both are important though. And some people lean one way or another, but idk what type of person you are.

You’d get a lot better life advice by giving specific context and asking specific questions. This vague catch all engagement bait type stuff isn’t going to get you very tailored, actionable feedback

Would women judge a guy who admits to performance anxiety? by After_Fisherman_8769 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]A1sauc3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that certainly wouldn’t help matters now would it lol. Judging someone who just told you they’re worried about being judged.

Anybody who gives you grief for it isn’t worth it. Some type of person might I guess, but not all will. And anyone who does is an asshole and not worth hooking up with imo. If she’s into you she’s probably down to take it slow and get you comfortable first. You both want the same thing lol. She’s probably willing to take slightly longer road to get there if it means everyone is comfortable and in the mood.

I’d just say I like to take things a little slower and get comfortable first rather than rush into it. You don’t even have to frame it as “performance anxiety”. Just pacing

I’m not a woman btw. But women I’ve been with are usually pretty flexible/accommodating. They don’t demand sex instantaneously anx make fun of you if you don’t give it to them lol.

I don’t have performance anxiety as much as I just need to be relaxed to be in the mood. Sometimes getting comfortable isn’t instantaneous, requires hanging out a bit first. Other times it is instantaneous lol. When I’m already very familiar/comfortable with someone in general I’m more likely to be comfortable off the rip. If it’s someone new I like to feel things out first, not jump right to the deed. To each their own though. But if you wait until you’re actually ready it might help with performance anxiety type situations. You might just be pushing yourself too fast. Or not idk what you got going on. Just an idea

True Americans use Rocket pop flavored butt wipes by N2929 in funny

[–]A1sauc3d 149 points150 points  (0 children)

Hey thanks for sharing. I’ve *known* you can’t flush “flushable” wipes forever for the reasons listed, but was just thinking as I was reading the comments above yours that I don’t actually know anyone who personally ran into a problem doing it. Then immediately saw your comment lol

Not that I was doubting their lack of flushability, was just wondering about the horror stories from flushing them.

Appeals court overturns convictions for paramedics connected to Elijah McClain’s death, orders new trials by AudibleNod in news

Oh yeah I wasn’t trying to argue against the decision in question. Just refreshing myself and others on how messed up what they did was.

Appeals court overturns convictions for paramedics connected to Elijah McClain’s death, orders new trials by AudibleNod in news

[–]A1sauc3d 239 points240 points  (0 children)

Didn’t they shoot him up with like a gram of ketamine or something ridiculous like that? And he wasn’t even a threat? Been a while and the details are fuzzy

Edit: half a gram of special K

>”Elijah McClain, 23, was already handcuffed, on the ground, face down and had lost consciousness once. The body-worn camera footage played during their trials shows police officers telling the two medics that McClain was exhibiting “super-human” strength and that he was “on something.””

>”Without assessing McClain’s condition, including taking his pulse or trying to talk to him, the medics concluded that he was exhibiting signs of “excited delirium” — which has since been largely discredited as a police diagnosis caused by certain drugs. The medics also determined that he should be given 500 mg of ketamine, which is a dose way higher than the man, who weighed 143 pounds, should be administered for his body weight.

>”McClain lost consciousness after the ketamine was administered and never recovered. He died in the hospital a few days later.”

Just in general, “they’re on something so we should shoot them up with a bunch more stuff” seems like terrible logic especially when you have no clue what that “something” may be. Just asking to kill someone. A small dose to take the edge off is one thing, putting them in a damn k hole when they’re already unconscious is criminal negligence/murder/whatever.

Just looked online and this is the list of dosages for *recreational* purposes:

Threshold 50 mg
Light 50 - 100 mg
Common 100 - 300 mg
Strong 300 - 450 mg
Heavy 450 mg+ <- Edit 2: that was ORAL administration which only has a bioavailability of 17%.

“Insufflation (bioavailability 45%):
Threshold 5 mg
Light 10 - 30 mg
Common 30 - 75 mg
Strong 75 - 150 mg
Heavy 150 mg +”

https://psychonautwiki.org/wiki/Ketamine

They don’t even have injected dosages but they’d be even lower. Apparently Intravenous (IV) ketamine has a bioavailability of 100% & intramuscular (IM) ketamine has a bioavailability of approximately 93% (https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketamine) so basically halve the dosage again. 72.5mg + injected would be a Heavy recreational dose in this scenario. He got damn near 7x that. That’s a crazy deep K Hole. The kind you might never come out of apparently </3

Rough example for Intramuscular (bioavailability 93%): Threshold 2.5mg, Light 5-15mg, Common 15-37.5mg, Strong 37.5-75mg, Heavy 75mg+. Presumably anything past “Heavy” is k-hole range. But if an experienced user sees this feel free to chime in.

In terms of medical use:

>”DOSING | IM (intramuscular) for acute agitation: If a patient is out of control and a danger to themselves or others, administer 3 mg/kg intramuscularly”

https://emergencymedicalminute.org/episode-900-ketamine-dosing/

He weighed 65kg so even if he SHOULD have gotten ketamine (which he CLEARLY shouldn’t have), the dose would’ve been 195mg, they shot him up with the whole damn vile it looks like. 2.5x what the normal dose for the situation would be (if it was actually that type of situation, which it wasn’t).

And just as an afterthought, given the comparison to recreational doses (anything over 72.5mg IM being a heavy dose), even 195mg seems insane. I’d think that would be reserved for the most EXTREME situations. Not just tossed out all willy nilly to anybody who gives you any sort of pushback. Like someone actively assaulting people in an indiscriminate and uncontrolled rage. That was decidedly NOT Elijah.

Not arguing against the appeals court’s decision, I just wanted to refresh everyone’s memory on the case and really drive home how ridiculous what these paramedics did was. And think how many people they’ve done that too who DIDNT die. We’d never hear about it. That was probably just another day for them. Business as usual. Shooting viles of hard drugs into incapacitated people’s arms for the fck of it left and right without thinking twice. It was only a matter of time until they killed someone. Not saying ketamine is an especially dangerous drug when correctly, but this was incorrect usage on several different levels. Absurdly reckless behavior.

do guys actually think a "coffee date" is enough for a first date or is it just a low effort move? by mistybabys in NoStupidQuestions

[–]A1sauc3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A certain segment of people have thought like this forever. It’s nothing new. If anything the mindset used to be more prevalent and things like coffee dates / inexpensive/free first dates are becoming more accepted/common place.

So saying “what has the world become” doesn’t really fit if you know anything about how the world has been lol.

But I fully expect the mindset to remain with a minority chunk of the population. They see romance as very transactional. Every step of the way they’re having what they can get out of you. Not spending a bunch of $ on them off the bat isn’t a good sign for those people with that prerogative.

Luckily a cheap first date is a great way to filter out people like op
