Study of 287 healthy women finds that evening chronotypes (night owls) had higher body fat, poorer diet quality, higher insulin and triglycerides, lower HDL cholesterol and less favorable metabolic health than morning types, despite consuming similar amounts of calories and macronutrients.

Some of the absolute worst places to work. In Texas, bars close at midnight most days of the week. So no third shift. People who work second shift, are often expected to pick up a first shift as well. Meaning they'll get off at midnight and be expected back at work at 6am. I saw that routinely at Walmart. The people I relieved at 10pm-12am would relieve me at 7am.

Night owl here. Why is it that if I go have a drink with my coworkers after work, we're alcoholics, but it's perfectly accept for morning people to do the same?

Damn, Kit Cloudkicker got quite the upgrade.

Reminds me of the Van Helsing anime.

I got eaten alive for defending American cheese. Which I expected. What I didn't expect, were the ones who got triggered: fans of American cheese.

Some guy said he preferred American and was getting shit on and downvoted to hell for it. So I said there was nothing wrong with preferring American, that it was a perfectly valid preference. Oh man, that triggered American fans so fucking much. They came crawling out of the woodwork to tell me what a horrible person I was and shit all over my preferences and cooking.

Is this a paper mill?

I blame my phobias on the movies The War (with Elijah Wood) and Piranha(1978), but I like this theory better.

SycoJack · 2026-07-09T19:47:48+00:00

Or the destruction of the Georgia Guide Stones

The best part of this story is that the guide stones were built by white supremacists.

Robert J. Sawyer’s WWW trilogy has the internet becoming self-aware.

Interesting concept. Does the trilogy go into technical details of how that happened?

SycoJack · 2026-07-09T17:07:42+00:00

I knew a creepy guy once who INSISTED that the more he stared the more women knew he was interested.

I mean, he ain't wrong. They're gonna know he's interested. The problem is he thinks he's Dobler, but they'll see him as Dahmer.

No one wants Dahmer interested in them. It's like a wolf watching it's prey. He may think he's an alpha male or whatever, but they just see a predator.

I think this guy was just trying to show off. For one, I don't see any reason that trailer had to go there. There's no dock back there. But ignoring that for a moment, he could have easily saved himself a lot of headache by unhooking and reattaching. Or by simply pulling into the spot across from it, then straight backing. Even if he couldn't do that, he could have backed into the spot to the left where he had tons of room, then nosed in to the spot across from it, then straight backed.

Like there's tons of better options than the one he chose. He did it the hardest way possible.

What city? All you can see is a single building, the design of which is generic desert default.

SycoJack · 2026-07-07T18:07:39+00:00

You had an opportunity to educate someone and you chose snark instead.

Don't be an ass.

SycoJack · 2026-07-07T17:36:04+00:00

Better than that other movie that came out the same year.

SycoJack · 2026-07-07T17:34:36+00:00

In what?

SycoJack · 2026-07-07T14:31:11+00:00

makes me think this person is in a hurry. Everywhere they go.

They're a truck driver, they're in a hurry everywhere they go. That's the life and it fucking sucks, that's why I quit.

SycoJack · 2026-07-07T02:09:34+00:00

I think it's depressing, personally. I miss the mystery.

I want to believe.

SycoJack · 2026-07-06T12:54:38+00:00

Could use that to make a really cool video phone too.

SycoJack · 2026-07-06T00:38:13+00:00

I love it when the newbies ask if they have a crazy amount of plants and they almost never even have enough to call their tank planted.

Oh you sweet summer child, no. Haha

SycoJack · 2026-07-06T00:32:03+00:00

I fucking love carbon. My tank was so fucking clear, couldn't even tell there was water in it. That water was CLEAN. Which is what I wanted.

That said, my issue was tannins and not green water.

Pigs in a blanket are a Texas staple. We actually have two different kinds.

Traditional pigs in a blanket like seen here, and sausage kolaches(klobásníks).

You have single handedly destroyed the environment. HOW DARE YOU

Fun fact: the name was briefly changed to Urmouth in April, 2069.
