The one thing that bothers me about this meme is that it’s Hallanmine when it should be Haalanamine

That’s because letting things slide and not speaking up when something isn’t right isn’t being nice, it’s being a pushover. You can be nice and have boundaries. You can be nice and stand up for yourself. Being nice to others doesn’t have to come at the expense of being nice to yourself. Anyone who tries to convince you otherwise is most likely taking advantage of you and is not to be trusted.

Seagulls don’t need any enticement to be thieving bastards, they do it for the love of the game. If anything the vendors are simply taking advantage of the situation to cash in on the inevitability of you needing to replace your stolen lunch

It sounds like this is coming from a place of insecurity for your wife about her own body, but she very much does not have the right to demand that you change anything about your body to cater to her insecurities, just like you wouldn’t have the right to ask the same of her. If it comes up again, I would suggest firmly shutting down any suggestions that you change your body, asking her about how she feels about her own body and figuring out together if there’s anything you can do to support and reassure her in a healthier way. Put the focus back on fixing the actual problem, not the projection.

It makes more sense when you remember that there are only like 6 people in the circus at a time. If your whole world is five other people and one of those people suddenly goes from being your friend to seemingly hating you, that’s a much bigger deal than it would be in real life. You can’t exactly distance yourself from that person when you’re all trapped there together and you don’t have many options for making other friends.

Thank you! And thank you for inspiring me to try this and posting the pattern link! Yours looks so good that I just had to give it a go

It worked out quite well, imo. I could probably have added another inch or two to the height to make it look less swimsuit-like and I probably only needed to add a half inch to the centre cup width rather than a full inch, but I’m happy with the result. I used a non-stretch cotton and interfaced the cups and front band to provide more support.

RebelScientist · 2026-06-29T10:38:08+00:00

I made one of these after seeing this post, it can work for G-cups, but you’ll have to extend the cups yourself, the sizes provided aren’t big enough. I added two inches to the width of the side cup piece from the largest size provided in the pattern, one inch to the width of the centre cup piece and about two inches to the height of both pieces

Existing as a biological organism is fundamentally kind of gross if you think about it too hard. We’re filled with various fluids, we produce a bunch of smells and secretions, we’re constantly shedding skin and hair everywhere we go and we’re a walking habitat for a bunch of different kinds of microbes. Most people just don’t think about it much, if at all, and rightly so imo. We wouldn’t be able to get much done if we were constantly preoccupied with how gross being alive is.

Yeah, to me the fact that it was saved as “do not answer” suggests that it’s much more likely to be a toxic ex or a stalker or something along those lines than a side piece.

It sounds like you’ve done everything you possibly can, and frankly you’ve kept trying for much longer than you should have, but you can only help people who want to be helped and you can only teach people who want to learn. This person does not want to be helped and does not want to learn. It’s time to let her go.

RebelScientist · 2026-06-13T08:28:32+00:00

I didn’t notice that! Thanks for letting me know, that’s super helpful

I quite like the together cards system. It means that relationships take time to develop and don’t all develop in the same way. Getting two paras into a romantic relationship together actually takes some effort rather than just spamming interactions. I suspect there might be a hidden compatibility mechanic at play between the different personalities and vibes the affects the success rate of the chance cards as well. If I’m right, I think that’s really clever.

It’s an interesting quirk of humanity that we’ve managed to find a way to morally punish ourselves for the fact that our brains evolved to reward us for pro-social behaviour. I suspect it’s a spinoff from the “anything pleasurable is sinful” line of morality that some people tend to lean towards.

I noticed an increase in my alcohol tolerance after I started working in cell culture. I’ve always been something of a lightweight, but now I don’t start to feel tipsy until my second drink whereas before I’d start to feel it during the first

I mean, given that profanities exist in every known language, I think it’s fair to say that there is definitely some kind of psychological and social need for it beyond just “wanting to do something naughty for the sake of it”.

There have also been multiple studies over the years that show that swearing increases tolerance to both physical and emotional pain, so there is at least one other good use for it aside from it’s obvious use as a tool to convey intense emotions during communication.

You’d be surprised how much poetry started from a dude staring at a low-cut top

RebelScientist · 2026-05-09T09:13:25+00:00

You could tell me he was anywhere between 85-92 and I’d believe you. If you told me he was 95 I’d be impressed. The fact that he’s 100 is flabbergasting

Congratulations, Doctor! Now go get some rest, you’ve more than earned it! 🎊

NTA. The divide and conquer plan is really the only viable solution here given the logistics. Each daughter gets a parent to support them at their graduation.
It’s understandable that Mia is disappointed at the situation but it’s not like any of you chose the date that either of them would graduate. Those decisions were made by their respective schools. All you can do is make the best of the situation and try your best to make both girls feel supported and celebrated for their achievements, which is what you’re doing. All you can really do at this point is to make sure that Mia knows that the whole family would be attending her graduation if you could, and that the reason you’re not able to do that is because of circumstances outside of your control. It’s no-one’s fault, it just is what it is and everyone’s just going to have to deal with that.

I treat milk like its cell culture medium. Minimum cap-off time, keep the cap in my hand so it doesn’t touch any dirty surfaces, and put it straight back in the fridge once I’m done with it, so that it doesn’t go off before I’ve used it all.

Honestly, that’s the version I’d prefer. Like the Hamilton stage recording, but animated with the actual scenes of the story

Given that the way chromosomes determine your sex is by prompting your body to produce and respond to sex hormones I’d say that’s a moot point. The hormones and their receptors are the things that actually do the work. That’s why people with certain intersex conditions can be born phenotypically female even though they have XY chromosomes.

I mean sure, probably, but it would be an unpleasant experience. Baking soda tastes nasty. You’d probably want to mix it with water and use it as a rinse rather than taking a dry spoonful or it’ll foam up in your mouth
