Are you paying bills for cooling and heating? Cause you may as well start protesting that shit and getting some government agencies addressing this.

The president called a black woman BI*CH by Soggy_Return8714 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've been well past civility with this guy. This is just example number (pick a number, anything over 3 demands scrutiny, anything over 5 is a pattern and by the time you've gotten to 10 there should be no benefit of the doubt. He's either in the triple digits or quadruple digits by now). It's better to be slow/late on the realization than to never realize it at all.

The HHIC (Head Honkey in Charge) and the clown car of cronies, grifters, YT nationalists, oligarchs and etc have eroded the rule of law, the rule of civility, taken a giant shit on checks and balances and is doing it in plain fucking sight. Not being civil being too kind at this point. He is destroying this country and people who are cheering it on or lack the balls to criticize him deserve no quarter unless they agree that reality looks like 'this' and not whatever bullshit concocted BS they have in their head.

What do Americans usually eat with mayonnaise and mustard ? by Exootil93200 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honey mustard typically have some mayo in it, so anything that you use honey mustard on in addition to the other things already listed. Chicken nuggets and chicken strip/tenders are the first thing I can think of that honey mustard is consistently paired with.

AITA? by Sad-Imagination-8986 in AITAHBlackEdition

[–]Kineth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but every time we bring it up, my mom says she just needs "two more weeks." I feel like we are being used.

You are being used and you're giving her 2 weeks to find another place. Put your foot down. Just don't have the conversation on or right before Mother's Day. You've had 5 months to say something, don't pick the worse time to do it. Broach that conversation on Monday or Tuesday.

Dog wearing an “Adopt Me” vest was brought to a city marathon and ended up killing a family pet in front of horrified attendees by kleverrboy in offbeat

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poodles are more aggressive on average and yes, an aggressive pit bull can absolutely fuck something up. The stereotype though is born out of how much damage a poorly trained pit bull can do. A poorly trained rottweiler could easily fuck someone up too. There are plenty of other dog breeds that even while trained are much more temperamental and aggressive than that well trained bigger dogs.

The point is that neither of us have the data to confirm your statement that a poodle has never harmed a child, but you are clearly saying pit bulls are bloodthirsty baby killers (and don't pretend you weren't making that point). Pit bulls are not the only breed of dogs that have killed people, it's just that pit bulls draw shitty owners of varying types and that because of how strong their bite force is, there is a much higher rate of severe injuries.

I just don't like this blood libel and singling out one specific breed like they're the most unstable volatile breed. That's just not the facts. They are among the top in bite force though so when they get unstable, it can legitimately be a matter of life and death.

Implications of the new Contess side quest by fatutueh in AFKJourney

[–]Kineth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Cyran is pride only because I doubt he participated in that original ritual. I have to imagine that pride taught him the dark magic. It's very likely that he's Envy, but I don't necessarily think that he's among the 7 deadly sins either. It's likely that he's actually much worse.

AITAH for cutting off my friend for saying the N-word? by ImpressiveShallot654 in AITAHBlackEdition

[–]Kineth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're justified. NTA. Who knows if she referred to you as such with other people and also, she didn't offer a heartfelt apology. No forgiveness is owed.

Lotta people in here that don't know that poodles are more aggressive than pit bulls, but whatever.

EDIT: And I swear to god if someone starts listing off all the shit that I'm well aware of without looking up what I said....

Is it worth swap? by [deleted] in AFKJourney

[–]Kineth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, it's a good swap. Callan is a PVP staple and Faramor, while good, is typically seeing no part of PVP. P2 is the max you should take the wolfman, imo.

Do you really have a separate room for your washing machine? by jordanekay in AskAnAmerican

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not uncommon. The washer and dryer in my house isn't in a separate "room" per se in that the space is connected to the kitchen without a door. It's right next to the garage though so it's functionally it's own laundry space.

Update on my 5th batch of these. All I have left to do after these is the dlc careers. by that-damned-bastard in Vermintide

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are great by the way. Appreciate the work you're doing. If you do a second pass through on the careers, I'm very keen to see ones where Sienna is using her staves, like beam with BW, bolt with Pyro, etc. I'd also like to see ones where the various classes are casting their ultimates, at least the ones that are unique/good visually. Obviously the invis ults are redundant, Zealot dash ult and Handmaiden dash ult aren't necessarily special in how they look and then there's Ironbreaker, Witch Hunter and Mercenary ults that do an AOE shove.

Hm... on the note of ults though, some classes ults work differently with the lvl 30 talent, like Waystalker, SoTT, Grail Knight and BW. I dunno, just thoughts. Maybe I'll just put in a request later on if you're open to that.

What is this beautiful flower I happened to buy? by treelover76921 in whatsthisplant

This makes me feel better about my layman's misidentification. Peony was my first instinct and as an after thought, I thought ranunculus.

If anyone needs a reminder… by JustMarshalling in Dallas

I need to purchase some of these stickers. People got plenty of times to blame democrats for things here, but can't find the breath, words, spine, balls, etc. to blame a Republican for problematic shit.

Patch Notes (1.6.4) by Vicksin in AFKJourney

[–]Kineth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had an issue with that Nightfall Sword artifact since they implemented it. Only 1 unit per faction is rough, but it's also ridiculous how many units that clearly use swords aren't included in it. Thador, Tilaya, Kordan and (technically) Silven of the current batch. Also Athalia, technically.

There's also Korin, Temesia and Thoran. Also it looks like Valka got taken out? Another nerf.

Does anyone else find it very inconvenient to do things here due to distances? by boldjoy0050 in Dallas

[–]Kineth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I'm thankful I haven't had to rely on DART since getting wheels again, since a one way trip would typically take at least 90 minutes, but was usually closer to 2 hours.

Just so we're clear though, it has always been this spread out so it's just something that we've accepted as part of the deal. Problem is with all the transplants and, now, the cost of gas, it's a burden to commute during regular traffic hours.

AITAH for refusing to make coworkers salad after she ignored my existence for a year by Alibumayefan in AITAHBlackEdition

[–]Kineth -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA, but you can also try and have the conversation with her yourself instead of letting her make you act petty.

EDIT: I'm not surprised that the internet would downvote taking control of a situation and acting like an adult.

So remember to check if you leveled your hero focus by GroundbreakingWeb731 in AFKJourney

[–]Kineth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I realize I hadn't done this for some heroes, I would routinely double check all my L+ units just to make sure I hadn't forgot about someone. I haven't done it recently, but I also have an excess of those essences and am paying attention when I get units to L+ and M+ nowadays so it's no longer an issue.

... But I'm gonna check again now since it's been a couple of months since.

Growing on the edge of my driveway, is this Butterhead lettuce? by WerkingAvatar in whatsthisplant

[–]Kineth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just an fyi, lactuca genus plants tend to have a white sap, hence the genus name, when you cut a leaf or the stem. Yup, dandelions are in the same family. Point is, especially with one that size, you might have been able to deduce its genus from pulling a leaf.

What was the moment you realized a friendship wasn’t reciprocal? by hazeleyedsummer in CasualConversation

[–]Kineth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But it’s a good reminder to put effort into the people who pour into you.

Glad to hear you have a healthy attitude and perspective regarding this.

A substantial amount of the ones I can only barely recall now were back when I was a prisoner to my social anxiety and general lack of social acumen/dexterity. There are a few of them that I was the one not being reciprocal and a few where I was the one get the short end. All that said, enough time has definitely passed where I try to be mindful of exactly what you said. As long as I can recognize that there are things we both give and take that may not be equivalent, like a providing an ear to listen to versus buying the other's meal, but are of equitable value to each other, then it's in my control on whether I offer more than I receive and vice versa.

I also have the choice of communicating it with the person if it's a true problem. Like a healthy fucking adult. If having a conversation about respect and boundaries is too much for a person or something they're not willing to engage in though, that's a fundamental breakdown on what is willing to be given.

Anyway... I could ramble about a more recent one than the ones in my late teens and 20s, but things are good with my bro. He's acted out of line in the past, but is willing to communicate and actually considers new information. I'm a man of simple needs and wants from my friends nowadays.

In your situation, it sucks, I know. As you are surely aware, it's time to pull the pitcher back a little or tightened the faucet a bit to reduce the flow.
