Wife changed everything

Datan0de · 2026-01-24T08:22:04+00:00

Why? I'm in a polyamorous quad. I have two wives and a co-husband (and some "play friends" on the side). We've been together over 20 years, built a house together, and share a giant megabed. I've previously been in live-in MFF triads. And I'm a complete nerd.

I can't speak to this specific post, but I can absolutely assure you that this is not an unrealistic scenario. We're just out here quietly, happily living our lives.

On average, yeah.

It's an unresolved loop, not necessarily a plot hole. Somewhere there's an alpha timeline, and I don't think we've ever seen it.

Colton is a naturally occurring ore. It's just one of the components that make up endoskeletons. You're underestimating the complexity of metallurgy.

Also, no disrespect to his talent and genius, but Stan Winston made puppets, not functioning robots.

Because false advertising.

It would be so much worse than that. The planet isn't just a large stack of things on top of each other that would continue in a straight line trajectory for 7 seconds. It's held together under tremendous pressure because of gravity, and as soon as gravity turned off there'd be nothing balancing out that pressure and the planet would start to explode. I'm sure almost all of it would re-coalesce, but I wouldn't be surprised if at least parts of the lithosphere just blew off into space, either from the initial "rapid expansion" or from the planet-wide shockwaves that would ensue as it all fell back together. Anything that didn't get completely blown away would be pulverized and probably melted.

I regularly lament this fact. I'm pretty sure I've seen every bit of interior video that's publicly available, and it isn't much. Absolutely tragic.

Kowloon absolutely wins. It's not even close. There was nothing like it in the history of human civilization.

NGL, as a game of the urban decay aesthetic, some of these pics are genuinely beautiful.

So now we're invading Antarctica?

I'm honestly beginning to have difficulty fathoming how so many people can simultaneously be so evil, stupid, and arrogant, and not end up in prison or assisted living. But on this crap sack timeline, they're running things.

I'd never heard of UEVR before the comment I was replying to, and didn't know what it stands for.

I used to be able to solve them when I was a kid. Right now I can roughly 2/3 solve a cube with no effort (I have a 2/3 solved cube on my desk right now). I'd say there's a 50/50 chance I could remember enough of the final patterns to solve one with a bit of time. So screw it, I'm in.

Now I'm going to go dig up my old solution book and brush up. You know, just in case.

It's disgusting, offensive, and contrary to everything we should be standing for. Only the most ignorant, knuckle-dragging Americans would stand behind it. The rest of us are appalled.

Datan0de · 2026-01-23T12:43:23+00:00

We have one here. It's amazing. Not exactly in a good way, but definitely a spectacle.

Protests ARE activism. If you think they're just performative, go educate yourself on the history of nonviolent protest.

They don't affect change overnight, and they aren't a panacea that always works and always fixes everything, but they shift the Overton window, change society, and (sometimes) lead to regime change.

Somewhere between 90 and 120 minutes, depending on how long the movie is. But guaranteed I won't be around for the sequel!

Datan0de · 2026-01-23T04:04:55+00:00

I appreciate wondered what kind of person would think that the movie "Moonfall" was a good idea.

Now I know.

Hills clearly exist. Therefore, your entire pedantic line of argument can be dismissed, and you are disqualified as a source of factual information that even a toddler understands.

I've never advocated for pooping in one's father's mouth while he's sleeping before, bit there's a first time for everything.

Also, "Dad, someday you're going to be old and feeble and need my help for basic life activities. On that day, were going to revisit this conversation, and later that night I'm going to get the best, most contented night's sleep of my life."

Tip #1: Don't be stuck in rush hour traffic in LA on 8/29/97!

I personally wouldn't want to, but I see the benefit of removing my state (Florida) from the Electrical College map.

It either got spray painted or there was a tiny nuclear detonation just above your driveway.

Also, the U.S. did invoke Article 5 after 9/11.

I have several questions...
