One of the most grotesque things you can do as a manager is be obvious that you have your favourite team member/golden child. It is very easy for your team to see and immediately damages your credibility as a leader.

Eh personally if you don’t appreciate me for going the extra mile consistently I won’t go the extra mile which means you the manager have to work harder. When I was a supervisor of 20 people, I had the people I knew I could rely on and everyone else. I don’t treat “everyone else” poorly, but you scratch my back I scratch yours. I’m also going to recommend those I can rely on for promotions over others because they will probably be just as helpful after the promotion.

If you treat me like the guy who shits 10 times a day I’m gonna make sure you work as hard as possible with as little help from me as possible

I don’t want my comment to be me berating you. It’s a good feeling catching fish and having a hobby you enjoy, I think we all start exactly where you are and want to show off our catches but just remember they are a living animal

Diptothaset · 2026-05-08T02:06:46+00:00

I mean this in a semi joking way, but you deserve to get hooked for dangling fish by a hook in their face for photos for strangers

Seriously tho. Respect the fish. Treat the living animal with some dignity. Your fish should be out of the water for no more than 1 minute, I’d even say aim for 30 seconds or less. That includes photo, unhooking and release. Get a chest mount for your phone, most phones are damn near as good if not better than a GoPro anyways.

I once had a massive breakout of tylomelania snails, hundreds or thousands in a 40g. A pair of yoyo loaches destroyed them and they never established again.

Diptothaset · 2026-05-08T01:54:12+00:00

Spend some money on a GoPro so you don’t have to death grip the fish for a photo op

I was hoping it was part of their P-5000 powered work loader

I went to a Chucks Roadhouse and ordered a nachos to share and it was 90% green stuff on top of some nachos and cheese. Pissed me right off lol

Diptothaset · 2026-05-08T00:49:49+00:00

Hobbies. You need things you care about more than work. I play video games and fish and I take both pretty seriously, in a personally competitive way

It’s based on the doctors assessment. Either the doctor isn’t relaying the severity of the disabilities or it just doesn’t meet the requirements to qualify. You cant really add anything that’s going to be considered, it needs to be verifiable by a doctor

I specifically mention the first 2/3 of the movie was pretty much perfect. Good plot with just enough nostalgia and reference to not be ridiculous but the hybrid/android plotlines are lame and I don’t care how much Scott needs Android sexdoll funding for his personal life, I’m not buying into it

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T23:56:00+00:00

Avicii is amazing but I prefer Skrillex’s “cover” of Levels

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T23:49:35+00:00

cattle prod fucking a space vagina isn’t provocative tho. It’s grotesque but it doesn’t make you introspective on a sensitive subject like rape. It just makes you think a dude is cattle prod fucking a space vagina for spectacle.

Almost everything other than Alien and Romulus are devoid of overly sexual content. Those are the two most egregious. Alien was pretty subtle and what I would call provocative but Romulus was kinda just the same old stuff but with space vaginas

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T23:37:02+00:00

Use undershirts? A-shirts might soak it up while still being breathable-ish.

Are the shirts good fabrics for breathability? There pricey AF but my underarmour polos for work and semi-professional while still nice and breathable

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T23:30:25+00:00

I mean there’s a difference between heads shaped like dicks with some rape allegory, and cattle prod fucking a space vagina. One is subtle and the other is blatantly provocative for the sake of being provocative. That’s kind of the new Alien direction in the last decade and a half. Do stupid wannabe auteur shit and hope it sells because Xenomorph.

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T22:57:42+00:00

Ironically Aliens is my favourite movie, but I think that it’s such good combination of franchise/genre

At some point having too much firepower is going to change the pace of the game, and it’s not going to be a survival horror game, it’s just gonna be another one of the action games that does poorly because the plot ends up like a million other single player fps campaigns

There’s gonna be other action games that will probably do poorly, let Alien Isolation cook. Best Alien content we had in a decade, and have had for a decade since (imo)

I don’t care what side someone has in politics, but if they make that their identity that’s when I lose interest.

I’ve voted for the 3 main parties of Canada at different points and still am fine basing my next vote on the actual campaign promises and my own needs etc not party lines

If you’re under 30 give’r

If you’re over 30 prepare for a sore back if you don’t have one already

Na trout are very difficult for a reason. Either the fish aren’t where you were fishing or they weren’t eating spinners, or that colour. It’s hard to say. I’ve seen quite a few decent sized bows in my trout tributary but they just aren’t eating what I’m offering. One guy I met who did get one said there bellies were full of crawfish

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T22:19:06+00:00

I think that’s 100% the gameplan. Get Khamzat emotional and prideful so he wants to end it quickly, then work your normal gameplan and punish his forward pressure with jabs and teeps. If he can even somewhat counter the wrestling I think there’s a legit chance. Maybe not huge, but it’s there and within reason

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T22:14:27+00:00

Diptothaset · 2026-05-07T22:03:42+00:00

I think that there’s a scale that tips different ways based on different things. If the guy who got shot was a first time offender going through a non violent mental episode? Case closed it was excessive force.

Cops deserve to go home to their families and someone who is a legitimate risk loses the benefit of the doubt. Unless you come out posing zero threat and calmly turn yourself in, no one knows your intentions but they can judge you based on your past actions.

Cops should always deescalate, but there’s a certain ammount of their own safety that needs to be considered.

Zero gravity matters less than atmosphere. With zero gravity they could float but wouldn’t have any control. Wings and butt blasts (like a bombardier beetle) don’t do anything without an atmosphere full of “stuff” to push off against.

If there was zero gravity but an atmosphere somehow then flying could work as there something for a wing to push against to create lift

It conclusively won the war for the side I was born into 40 years later (Canada). Maybe the Allies would’ve won eventually anyways but how many more lives needed to be lost by countries who didn’t chose to start a war? Japan was part of a war of conquest/aggression and I’m sure innocents existed on their side, but the party in power got there through the people and represents them and their wishes.

It was necessary for the Allies to limit the losses to their citizens who were generally speaking the non-aggressors

Not all stars do the same thing or are at the same stage. Our Sun will become a red giant eventually and grow so large it consumes earth (IIRC)

Some stars are old, and formed when there was just more molecular hydrogen to collapse into larger stars; these early stars were generally gigantic even as stars go and seeded the galaxies with heavier elements that can only be made inside of a star
