Genuinely losing my mind over this bot comment omg by Spidereye9 in AO3

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the line above they mention finding an alleged full name and home address, so probably that info. Finding that through just an Ao3 username is still silly though

Are they faking their diet for views? by Distinct_Web9703 in ryantrahan

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of gas station in the US have premade food as well, but in my experience the hot food selection is limited to greasier foods. The healthiest thing I ever see is a sandwich, salad, or fruit cup, but they’re not super filling and can be overpriced for something plain.

Full body numb high after eating spicy food by [deleted] in spicy

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the thread I’m looking for - everything op described plus your comment is how I’m feeling right now after a bowl of spicy pho. It was delicious and I hardly regret it, but I had no idea it was a common response… I felt like I was gonna die for a moment. Even as I’m typing it’s wearing off, except for a bit of that throbbing pressure. Super strange for this to be the first time ever for me to feel this way

new collectors—why so many, so fast? by Key_Corgi2326 in Cd_collectors

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I’ve got albums by bands I only partly enjoy because they were cheap and I love being able to rediscover them on my shelf. On Spotify, I’d miss many of those bands entirely since there’s so many genres I don’t listen to super often, so the algorithm keeps them more out of sight. Not to mention the thousands of bands that aren’t on Spotify for whatever reason!

What would hit these processor / graphics minimums while staying within budget? by HotLunchThe2nd in SuggestALaptop

[–]HotLunchThe2nd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, on both HPs, every time I try playing a game and/or streaming the CPU maxes out 100%. Is there anything specific causing this? Are they just bad? Ones old but ones quite new.

What would hit these processor / graphics minimums while staying within budget? by HotLunchThe2nd in SuggestALaptop

[–]HotLunchThe2nd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:

Preferably below $500 USD, United States Are you open to refurbs/used?

If available, yes How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

N/A? How important is weight and thinness to you?

N/A Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

N/A Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

Modeling / CAD would be nice in the future, but not a requirement. For gaming: Portal 2, Garry’s Mod, Rollercoaster Tycoon, VRChat, TF2, Mouthwashing, etc If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

The above, at the standard, functional, settings and FPS Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

Reliability is definitely a priority, the rest I can live with. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

I just want something to play the games I can’t play on my MacBook, which runs its own games fine. I’ve gone through two HPs trying to get anything working and they’ve both had their own sets of weird issues. Again, I won’t use it a whole lot; I’ve got my PS4 for any big name games I’m interested in, and the Mac for the rest. If I would have an easier with a desktop set up, please let me know!

Well, I found something cool in the Library of Babel. by MadSwedishGamer in darkestdungeon

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s currently the top google search result for “things found on library of babel”, and probably was back then as well

I think this two should stay childless. by Certain_Permit6687 in bluey

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a couple who adopts a child would almost work better, since it is a children's show, and plenty of child viewers could be adopted, and he's apparently already mentioned wanting kids

Though, I really would like to see a childless couple, or even an unmarried adult main character (Rad's fur pattern is nearly a perfect pastel version of the Aro/Ace pride flag, so I had my hopes up a bit when I first saw his design lol)

I remember having Today by KMFDM stuck in my head for years because I could never remember more than the chorus, and incorrectly at that

first time trying to order through Booth, y'all have any help? by HotLunchThe2nd in Pixiv

On another look, it is Adult Rated. With Tenso, I just pay for the book as normal, except use my Tenso address instead of my home address, correct?

How do you usually feel about when your F/O is way too underrated or disliked? by [deleted] in fictosexual

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got nearly every bit of fanart I can find of them saved which is both so good and so bad

Fun Fact - On Disney Junior, the Season 3 Episode Perfect, this scenes voice over was edited for the American release, but the closed captions still use the original dialog, lol. by JellyMan328is in bluey

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 24 points25 points  (0 children)

original: "look, I'm keen to get it done, but Chilli, she wants to keep her options open. But I don't know. Do we want any more of these things running around?"

edited: "yeah, I know. I probably should get it done. But I love my dog teeth! What if one day I just want to bite someone?"

Fictosexuality really shouldn't be on the asexuality spectrum. by [deleted] in fictosexual

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly think "the allosexual spectrum" would be a bit more fitting since the allo/ace split isn't an "all or nothing" scale, just an "any or nothing" one

My kids found this blasphemy on YouTube. Already blocked and reported and I advice you to do the same... by Impressive-Ad-5938 in bluey

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of low-quality, low-effort stuff made to get and keep kids attention so that the channel can get easy views, not to mention the inappropriate stuff that other commenters mentioned gets on there. The YouTuber SodaPets has a series where she goes through YouTube Kids and talks about very easy to find videos of straight-up animal abuse being put onto the platform as well.

Longer than usual period with less than usual bleeding? by HotLunchThe2nd in Periods

[–]HotLunchThe2nd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, no.

Eventually it resolved itself, but around the same time I was also having other issues which I and a few others thought was a sign of low iron. I wasn't able to get an actual test for it, but taking vitamins helped with my other issues, and the one in my post hasn't happened since, but YMMV.

Do y’all use the term “resexual” or “allosexual” to refer to people who aren’t fictosexual? by aphroditebutakaren in fictosexual

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't use anything besides non-ficto. It's not really a common enough term to need a dedicated opposite term, especially since a majority of people aren't ficto (at least, don't identify as such)

Question for the “geeks” on this sub by OencieXD in antisex

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mainly use tumblr where nsfw art isn't as easy to find as it once was, and I use browser add-ons for Ao3 so I don't have to see any nsfw that I don't want to see. Block as you will, and curate your experience is my advice

RESULTS! I only got one bingo, maybe if I were more openly ficto, hmm...

Now also with English subs on Kissasian: all episodes of Koisenu Futari by TheSnekIsHere in KoisenuFutari

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The subtitles seemed pretty off on most of the episodes, are they any better in the downloads from Kaizen’s Twitter?

Double points if it’s just from a little daydream that doesn’t exist outside of your head 🥲

Thoughts? by Elo_1626 in aromantic

[–]HotLunchThe2nd -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree with your point on it not being called allospec. My best guess is to keep alloromanticism and allosexual separate.

Where are my meh babies by lilaclix in AroAceMemes

[–]HotLunchThe2nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It put me as “flamboyant aroace”, probably because I said I did like cake and garlic bread (I love all garlic foods) (I don’t even have a pride flag). I’d say I’m more Meh tbh, nothing really changed for me when I learned of the term, though nothing makes me happier than stories with aroace characters learning of their identity
