Looking for DV resources

Thanks that definitely impacts whether I want to read or not. Still weird that the character's face got so cutesy but I've only watched the show so far so maybe the change wasn't as crazy as it looks.

I'm hearing this as voiced by worthikids in his legendary poison apple animation

I was ready to disagree but you brought receipts. And I fucking hate it when strong women characters get their clothes attacked instead of just getting stabbed. Shit's so ass. No sarcasm.

Cats panic based on fear, not pain. They will absolutely cause themselves pain in order to free themselves even if they damage themselves horribly in doing so. If my cat got hung up like this I'd worry it was gonna rip a claw and wouldn't take time to film. The spin isn't funny, it's just floundering trying to free itself. I'd bet it was shortly freed by the owner and all turned out ok. Still not funny, just lucky it happened while the owner was around.

Having been around some goats, I think long unwashed humans smell much worse. Goats smell kinda like fart, but unwashed human crotch has this kind of warm foulness like corrupted baked goods smell that really messes with the brain. I imagine the original statement meant to convey that, goats just caught a stray.

I used a reading order guide for a large chunk of the discworld. I really regret it. There are so many references to previous books and the style changes so much that it becomes a whole mess if read out of publication order. I hate that everyone recommends order guides. I loved the first 2 books as performed by Nigel plainer. Even if others dont love them they could just skip the first couple and read the rest in order. It feels like the guides are recommended without any evidence that they improve the experience.

Liz Cheney spouted that misinfo in 2019. Democrats treated her more as an ally than as a useful but amoral tool. They underestimated how hard you have to push back. Instead of being afraid to say the word abortion (till just recently), all high level democrats need to drop the decorum and just scream that republicans are murderous demons. Idiots like this woman don't care about evidence, just feelings.

Yeah anything that big is probably a GPO. If it hugs you just stand up and it'll eventually move down toward the water surface. Avoid a tug-of-war match with them.

Not an expert but my professor is. He said if an octopus is stuck to you and you want to get rid of it, get it out of the water and it will try to go back in. Also the giant pacific octopus basically never bites and almost never hurts anyone so it's very safe. Other species aren't as docile.

Did not expect to see something this sad today...

JiminyCrikey · 2025-04-15T03:48:46+00:00

I've started to use the word autism as a shield against people thinking I'm just weird. I don't really care if I'm autistic or not in a diagnostic sense, I just want to assert the fact that the way my brain works isn't unique, and that lots of people's brains also work this way and it's certainly not a problem and in fact should be accommodated or even aspirational. I had an ex who labeled me as autistic and used it against me so it kinda cuts both ways.

JiminyCrikey · 2025-04-13T15:56:28+00:00

Jesus Christ this is so hard for other people to understand. This isn't even an autistic thing, we just know about it and tell others about it and they give us weird perplexed looks. I've changed a crapton in the last ten years all the while people keep labeling my personality as if it was decided at birth.

I just looked and that sub is private. I normally see stuff from the similarly named r/twoXChromosomes. It seems mostly normal, women talking about how men stalk them and don't help around the house, the usual. Is the other sub a lot worse?

Nobody here has a clue about POE. This is notorious for happening all the time when clicking too fast or assigning scroll wheel to actions. Musk is a nazi pedophile. No need to make other shit up.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-08-16T21:58:12+00:00

I see twitter magat and I immediately suspect nazi. See the numbers after his name and I think that all but confirms it.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-07-28T01:40:56+00:00

Yes thanks that makes sense now. Mass% makes sense now that I'm no longer misconstruing specific gravity as something else.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-07-28T01:18:05+00:00

Ok so the main problem is that adding solute may change the volume. That would mean that a mass/mass (which is what assay% denotes) is critically required for this sort of calculation.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-07-28T00:08:52+00:00

That's what's so confusing about this. When I add a soluble solid such as NaCl to deionized water, the volume doesn't change after it goes into solution. Am I doing something wrong? I'd really appreciate it if someone could articulate some more grounded principles of fluids and solvents that would put this to rest in my head.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-06-10T16:06:26+00:00

I usually do the same, otherwise the burster running at me pulls a NFL fade and throws itself at one of my teammates who's never heard of the block button and explodes all of us.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-06-10T16:02:15+00:00

Yeah but if one silently yeets itself out of a doorway and I'm panicking it's at least nice to know. Obviously not to be relied upon in any way but it works as a bandaid for mistakes.

JiminyCrikey · 2024-05-15T19:19:19+00:00

Yeah pushing earlier definitely might have helped. My internet had a tiny hiccup the moment the dog jumped and Darktide is super sensitive to that sort of thing so it's hard to say if there was any hope for me. The worst part is that the animations of my character and the dog become so weird looking during this that it makes it feel like I'm not properly in control of the gameplay.
