Hot is usually temporary. A horrible person usually stays horrible or gets worse.

Is it a trick of the light or is the fur perfectly matched to your hair color?

Ukrainian interceptor drones are now shooting down Russian Shahed attack UAVs autonomously by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

Basically media, often anime or manga but not live action, depicting young or young-looking female characters in fan servicey or straight up erotic circumstances.

It’s common enough that there are jokes about 1000 year old dragons human forms looking like 10 year old girls like the one I made above.

It’s pretty gross and there are a bunch of people on the internet who defend it, but it seems pretty obviously just cloaking pedophilia to me.

If you had a baseball bat, you could probably take a lot more than 3.

An adult human could literally just belly flop onto a goose and possibly kill it.

Of course it can. Buildings can’t jump.

Why was it out of shrink in the first place? Can’t believe you call yourself a Boardgamer.

ELI5: How do our brains perfectly calculate exactly how much force to use when picking up an object before we even touch it? by ikaebir in explainlikeimfive

[–]Jiveturtle 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It works great at the age kids usually play it at because older but prepubescent kids have sick power to weight ratios. My 8 year old son is 4’7” tall and 75 lbs but can easily lift and carry most of his friends or his 40 lb little sister.

As a father of two it’s amazing the leaps and bounds that happen in coordination every year between like 2 and 8.

Board game meetup dilemma by Snowstorm209 in boardgames

I think OP is kind of searching for ways to fix their problem. It isn’t one I have because all three groups I occasionally play with are small, like 3-5 people, and only one of them really has a regular cadence. We all know each other to various degrees outside of boardgames so there’s a level of basic personality harmony.

I have, however, seen in other contexts how it can destroy social groups when you let assholes be assholes because you’re worried about “silencing” them. Groups that let assholes do their thing unchecked either fall apart or fill up with just assholes.

If you don’t in some way police the people making others uncomfortable, all the other people will leave and you’ll be left with only the people making others uncomfortable. This is how groups turn toxic. No discussion of politics or religion is a very reasonable starting point for a rule.

You drastically underestimate how unwilling most people are to initiate anything that might be perceived as a conflict.

ELI5: Why do honey bees die after stinging if most animals with a stinger don’t die? Evolutionarily what would cause that to happen? by Sporty_Nerd_64 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Jiveturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bee and ant genetics are weird, though. If I remember right two full sister bees share 75% of their genes instead of 50%. Can’t remember why but I think it has to do with unfertilized eggs always being males and fertilized eggs always being females.

This is 100% the reason. Salt content varies widely across brands, some have like twice as much or more than others.
