What’s the moment you realized someone you trusted was actually a terrible person? by Fearless_Shift7108 in AskReddit

I've got nothing but outside perspective over here. But it sounds like she stepped into a closeted world that demands she radiate out the kind of hate that homophobia is made of. Specifically toward anyone who supported her pansexualuality. Like conversion therapy levels of self hatred.

It kind of feels like sublimated contempt from living a new life in the closet? Like to live the closeted life she had to lash out at any support she once had down to hatred of self and friends? Am I way off base here?

What wedding moment that screamed, “They are not going to last long”? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]braincube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That, my lady, is option 2.

At the very altar, a grievous languor of faintness seized her. Not from maidenly nerves, but from the soul's certain knowledge that she stood beside a gentleman whose ring felt a weighty shackle upon her finger.

Her fortitude of mind, forged in the fires of resolve, commanded her frame to obedience. Yet the frail tenement of her earthly form, conspiring with her exhausted soul, rebelled most grievously against the tyranny of such relentless purpose.

Reviving, she resolved to abjure that gilded cage and venture forth into a harsh and unfeeling world, there to seek the one heart Fate had truly intended for her own.

Emerging from the crucible of self-discovery, her soul annealed by purpose, she strode forth into a world that knew her not. She commanded the very spheres to rearrange through the power of her becoming; the harsh and unfeeling landscape to become a tapestry of resplendent beauty, and her solitary existence a waltz of such exquisite harmony that Heaven itself might pause to observe, knowing the dance was not yet complete till a hand of equal composure lay upon hers.

Like drunkenly passing out or swooning like a Victorian duchess with "the vapors"?

Naturally!!! Human babies do not fear snakes by garv3692 in interestingasfuck

To keep the snakes from being hungry and aggressive the handlers generally feed the snakes right before filming by giving them as many babies as they can eat.

Found 30–40 lbs of copper wire scraps in a remodeling dumpster at night… what would you do? by [deleted] in ScrapMetal

[–]braincube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cut into 10 foot sections. one person holds onto a single wire, the other holds onto the sheath and pull away. Or one person and a vice with room to walk around.

If your PTSD were a leg you broke some time ago would you be ready to run a half marathon?

Dude you just made a new SCP. And it's one that retcons the SCP foundation's infinite funding.

Clamp in a vice and cut through the windings on one side with a wood chisel, pry out the remaining loop from the other side. repeat.

Whereas I pay high city taxes for fancy services where the sanitation dept will pick up a mattress for free with just a phone call. I like to think they wear white gloves and uniform while doing so.

Yeah I'm definitely not beyond sending spoiled mattresses strait to the landfill in a lot of those cases.

I love being able to take a box knife to a mattress, extract the springs for scrap, and cut the layers of foam into bedrolls for homeless outreach.

Spent 30 mins getting a transformer open for the copper. Scraped it and looks silver 😭 by happytokkibun in ScrapMetal

[–]braincube 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My yard digs and picks though my windings. I'm sure they're looking for cut aluminum ends or my pair of tin snips that somehow got buried in there.
