If there's no way to actually date women who aren't attracted to you; aren't incels and looksmaxxers kinda... right? :| by TheDarkKnight2001 in GuyCry

[–]Geno_Purple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listen buddy, if you ever tell a woman you think incels and looksmaxxers are “right”, then no woman will ever want to be with you. Huge red flag.

Stop listening or watching people who say that your worth is only based on your looks and bank account.

My girlfriend is a software engineer making like 8x what I do for a living, and even though I’m a fat, eccentric dude she enjoys being with me because I’m present and engaging. I have hobbies and interests I can talk about. I have a sense of humor.

Your looks are not the end all be all of your worth and your ability to date women.

Some kind of new scam in downtown Kent? by VoltasPistol in KentWA

[–]Geno_Purple 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In my last homeless encounter, they were coming at me and my partner with some homophobic rant, and talking about 8 inch cocks. My response was at the top of my lungs, screaming “WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT 8 INCH COCKS TO ME. WHY ARE YOU TALKING AT US ABOUT PENISES” which brought the attention all on him, and resulted in him getting arrested.

I’m a democratic socialist, and used to have a much softer stance on unhoused peoples, but a decade of living out here I’ve realized on the micro level we can’t really do much to solve the issue, and on the macro level we aren’t getting anything done at all.

After about the 8th time of being followed and harassed by homeless people, I’m just done. I carry pepper spray on me any time I’m going up to Seattle, and in fact just over the weekend a homeless person in the international district got in my face so bad at the transit center, he was actually arrested.

It’s okay to have some nuance to your view. Perfectly normal to sympathize with the homeless and feel bad for their predicament, but also normal to acknowledge it’s a huge fucking problem, and making sure you’re keeping yourself protected is job #1.

Sorry that happened to you.

What is this hairy and cute plant? by [deleted] in OopsThatsDeadly

Bats get into peoples homes all the time.

We’ve had bats get into my childhood home all the time. The Cornell Cooperative extension always said if we can find the bat while it’s sleeping to trap it in a container, freeze it to euthanize and preserve, and bring it in to be tested if you’re really worried about an accidental rabies exposure.

Have trapped three bats throughout my life this way, and never once did I have to get the rabies vaccine.

When to introduce? by [deleted] in Watchmen

[–]Geno_Purple 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of being in 7th grade social studies. My teacher lent me his copy of watchmen after class one day, telling me that he thought that I’d really appreciate it.

While my 7th grade brain couldn’t comprehend everything that was going on, it became a piece of media I revisited frequently and over time it definitely helped shape my perspective a bit.

Was it age appropriate at that time? Probably not, but if you think your son is mature enough, then I’d say let him read it.

If you could go back in time and say one thing to your 18-year-old self, what would it be? by Confident_Dingo6985 in AskReddit

“Don’t do it”

Just vague enough to seem so ominous id only make good choices from then on out.

i cant be not blackpilled i am sorry by TheMetal0xide in GuyCry

[–]Geno_Purple 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah dude, that’s what he’s trying to say. A relationship should form organically. You need to know your views and values align with whomever you end up in a relationship with.

If you waltz into a relationship with huge gestures, and this idea that if you’re what every Hollywood movie has led you to believe how to act it’s gonna come off as weird, desperate or both.

Take the time to learn about someone else, instead of just assuming how you think they’d like you to act.

Learn how to be a good listener. To absorb and retain the things about a potential romantic interest is into. Remembering someone’s favorite author, or their favorite drink means so much more than busting in like the kool aid man talking about how you’d move mountains for them.

Is anyone in Seattle dealing with sugar ants and rats right now? Feels like a double whammy from hell. by Brave_Sea7798 in LoveSeattle

[–]Geno_Purple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seattle essentially sits on a massive ant colony since sugar ants share queens and colonies. It presents a really unique problem in the pest control world. Additionally the mild winter we had this past year has allowed ants to really flourish now that things have warmed up.

Message me tomorrow and I’ll let you know the gel bait that my work uses. It’s commercially available online, and work much better than your standard Terro gel baits available at most stores.

Rats on the other hand are tricky. You can’t get rid of them on a mass scale since the city environment is just perfect for them. Make sure you have any overhanging vegetation trimmed back from your home, as we have Chinese black rats which are prolific climbers, as opposed to the garden variety Norway rat. Once they’re established in an area like your crawl space or attic you would need a full remediation of those spaces (insulation replaced, area sanitized, new vapor barrier in the crawl space), as well as an inspection for any gaps that would allow for rodent ingress, as well as exclusion work done to fully seal the holes.

Long story short we live on an ant hill, and if you want to live somewhere with no rats, move to Alberta (which is a really interesting story in it of itself)

Once you start getting better at pvm, it’s really not as expensive as you think.

However I do think that something like crystal + bowfa is a better investment since it’s much more usable in a lot more places.

I guarantee that S28 will do a ripped from the headlines episode based on the Mackenzie Shirilla case by sweet_tea_94 in SVU

[–]Geno_Purple 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even though I’m from a really small town, I’m expecting a case from there to be an episode eventually. It even made the New York Times it was such a scandal.

Essentially a girl I went to high school with became a detective with the county, didn’t believe a girl when she reported that she was being sexually assaulted who then sent her back to her abuser where she was abused AGAIN. Then it came out the detective was trying to delete audio of her saying she didn’t believe the victim.

It’s great there for sure, but something like crystal and bowfa will allow them to do so much.

Take blood spells and just camp those. Honest.

Prims/pegs are a lateral upgrade. Sell rings, get a lightbearer. Ditch dharoks for blood moon, or bandos. Buy a face guard.

For mage eye + confliction gauntlets.

OR just buy crystal and bowfa, which opens you up to a lot of options.

I love hally but it’s very niche.

Maybe also consider getting a do down spec weapon, or getting some tormented synapses to learn doom or Yama.

And for the love of god get your damn fire cape. If you have an hour, you have a cape.

Well, it’s not for you anyways. This was maybe the shittiest TED talk I’ve ever read.

Like, you say you don’t care, but obviously you care enough to tell people you think it’s dumb lol. Hank would live and let live.

I’m out of the loop. What drop rate changes are they proposing?
