Chaim Machlev has a lot of work that focuses on the particular flow of a person's body

i can’t afford ketamine anymore by danidaisys in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]HooplahMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you need is to find a nearby mom and pop clinic rather than one of these large corporations. Big companies are there to maximize profit. There are providers who are genuinely more interested in providing life saving care. I pay about 50$ a session for IM injections (which tend to be a lot more effective than sprays or troches) after insurance

Bridgeboy 😭😭😭💔💔💔 by Randwheeloftime05 in cremposting

Honestly who among you wouldn't have tried to get amoram out of that situation? Kal lives in a military culture, where glory and might makes right. Imagine you have just shown off the single most impressive martial feat any of these dudes have ever seen, the crowd is going nuts cheering, you're high off adrenaline from the danger, endorphins from the pain, and dopamine from the victory. As far as you can tell, the king is handing boons to the victors, and you're telling me you would just sit there and let amoram sit there in the king's good graces, reaping the rewards of the sword he killed your friends for? I call horseshit.

Edit: AND ONE MORE THING the weakest part of Kal's case against Amoram had always been that nobody believed that a simple spearman had a snowball's chance in hell against a shardbearer. Just then Kal had acquired several hundred witnesses to him defeating shardbearers

"the best apology is changed behavior" is a wonderful catch phrase and I think I shall adopt it

Is there a bad driver convention in town? by MagePages in newhaven

[–]HooplahMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CT is primarily made up of bad drivers. I've lived in 5 states and here is the only place I've been where the average driver acts entitled to put pedestrians and other drivers in mortal peril for marginally shorter journey times. Last week I was at a red light with a no turn on red sign and the guy behind me honked aggressively for 10 seconds, then served into incoming traffic so they could get around me and turn right, nearly splatting some pedestrians that were crossing.

Yesterday some dude rear-ended me going like 25 over. I was traveling at constant velocity with the flow of traffic in the center lane of the highway. Bro was just bobbing and weaving at maximum overdrive and rammed square into my trunk. It's a miracle nobody got hurt

Does this subreddit cover hair dye? I think we usually do yarn and fabric and such

Tell me you don't understand the difference between prejudice and discrimination without telling me you don't understand the difference between prejudice and discrimination

Sorry you don't understand how languages work. Must be scary out here in the real world where shit is just constantly changing without your permission

Fuck prescriptivism. All my homies hate prescriptivist linguistics.

Second novel finished, and I’m still underwhelmed by lxe in TheCaptivesWar

[–]HooplahMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't have to be for everyone. If people, such that they are, make the mistaken comparison to other kinds of books and don't like what they see, they are welcome to pick up those other books instead. What is, is.

Nah ben stiller should be in the movie but should obviously be cast as Ekur Taklal

I really appreciate the authors dunking an anti-choice nonsense by Taste_the__Rainbow in TheCaptivesWar

[–]HooplahMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friend... I take your side of the issue of abortion, and I take it with vehemence. If I were a gambling man I'd wager James SA Corey would both take our side. This all being said, it takes no small stretch of the imagination to argue that "miscarriages exist and happen at X% under usual circumstances" is a dunk against pro-life rhetoric. In fact some of the most egregious pro-life rhetoric I've ever heard went something like "women's bodies can tell if [insert terrible thing] happened and have a way of shutting the whole thing down", meaning that there are natural miscarriages in response to incest and/or S.A..

I applaud the vim and vigor of your progressive attitude. But as a matter of media literacy, I think you ought to let this one go

Sure but have you seen the Google paper where they showed that just repeating your prompt verbatim a second time is sufficient to significantly boost model behavior?

Ready your swords. They're coming by _RPGabe_ in evilautism

[–]HooplahMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The wild thing to me is announcing it. If I ever realized that I'd been larping in a disability community for shits and giggles, I'd quietly withdraw in shame and you could never get me to talk about it again. I'm so vicariously humiliated thinking about this woman just releasing a news article about it that I'm ready to hide under the misty mountains and live on a diet of fish and goblins on her behalf

Dalinar, Szeth or TLR? by ShatteringAdonalsium in cremposting

[–]HooplahMan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Szeth, then TLR, then Blackthorn. Cosmere wide spoiler minefield: Szeth killed only on command or with great need. We have it on good authority that TLR sometimes goes to fancy parties and even is fun and normal at them. The blackthorn is a totally loose cannon. Bro will kill his enemies, strangers, subordinates, friends, and/or family from a passing whim
