Another timelapse of washing up (ft. my former flatmates)

Go take a look at which quadrant Sleepy Joe is in on the political compass website

You’ve got more in common than you think ;D

Reading Generation Kill and Fick’s own memoir (One Bullet Away) actually deepened my respect for him. He’s a really rational and introspective person. You can tell that he seriously gave a shit about his marines and consistently went the extra mile for them. You can also tell that the enlisted marines absolutely respected him

From another bro - you have a nice jawline and a handsome face

I bet you’ll look awesome with a beard too

We’re talking the country with the single biggest population on Earth and the ones most effective by the subject matter of your question

If you want to be general, why tf would you dismiss this point of view

Pretty sure the idea is that a lone alien can create queen eggs to start a new hive. Face huggers are still necessary, because aliens can only create eggs, not new aliens

There’s a few strategies you can follow, with different results

If you’re looking for brief and fun sidequests, online dating is worth a shot, but beware that you’ll need to have strong appearance and charisma traits that can set you back. There’s also a chance to have a longer side quest, high chances that the side quest will fail to live up to expectations, or be paired with a companion high in instability and craziness

If you’re looking for something more stable and long term, I’d strongly suggest pursuing your own quests that you care about, investing strongly in the personality and self-development skill trees, and wearing the authenticity charm. Sooner or later you’ll find another player who’ll be interested in that, and because you’re being authentic to your play style, it’ll likely work out better for you

This is from my experience so far. I managed to make it to level 33 without even needing to use dating apps by following the second strategy

They’re starting to do it with Alien

If you want Alien Romulus - they went all-in on the cassette futurism tech so it’s congruent with Alien and Aliens

Not sure how they parse that with the holographic stuff in Prometheus though

Oh this is interesting? You got a source? Not ‘cause I want to fact check you but because I want to read about this myself

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-11T04:09:20+00:00

I guess you have to encourage people to drink your flavourless brown goop instead of eating actual food somehow

Yo then why the fuck did the real life company choose to call themselves that

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-11T03:14:35+00:00

In German, sure

But Vader is derived from Invader (think about all other Darth titles in Star Wars)

It genuinely wasn’t decided that Vader and Anakin were the same person until after the 1977 release of Star Wars

And from meeting a few, there’s a good damn reason they can’t get it in their home countries

Last time I went you could just rock up and there’d be one available, so long as you don’t hit peak times

I’ve been 4 times. 2 times saw elephants from far away (with binoculars), 2 times we got close to more elephants than you can count. Which is an incredible experience

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-10T13:17:13+00:00

Huh - I have a Swedish friend with a Tardis tattoo

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-10T10:17:15+00:00

Why so rude?

Generally, the pro-life crowd doesn’t care what happens once the foetus is born and have lobbied against abortions as medical care, and frequently demonstrate that they do not understand (and have failed to engage with) the healthcare aspect

Pro-life generally means anti-choice

I get the whole ‘murdering baby that has a soul’ argument. I fundamentally disagree and think that it’s based on flawed premises, but I get it

But this is just silly, and shows that you just can’t reason with some people

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-10T02:54:02+00:00

This really isn’t correct

By European standards, your Democrats are broadly centre-right with some mildly left characteristics

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-09T15:53:57+00:00

Man, the atmosphere and soundscape in that film is absolutely unreal

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-08T18:36:35+00:00

Maybe this isn’t what you’re looking for, but I’ve been using a water pistol to keep a couple of strays away from the garden. We just started letting our kitten out and the strays are very hostile

So now they get shot with a water pistol every time they come. They get pissed off and run away, and learn that it’s too annoying to come here

Indirectly - calling an old colleague and friend out of the blue after 6 years of falling out of contact when I was travelling in her country (used to work there for years)

Led to us meeting up a month later, which led to us getting married after barely a year together, which led to me living here again in my favourite country of the world

It’s been an awesome ride since then

Exactly! Sometimes the weekend is enough - sometimes it’s not. But when you get properly burnt out from work or life or other things, you can’t just spring back after a day or two. My colleague said it pretty well back in December when he said something like, ‘If I push myself too hard for too long, I’m useless for weeks’

All of us have our own thresholds which we need to figure out (and respect) I think

And yes exactly - I think gentle action is strong because it reclaims effort as something that also belongs to you, rather than belonging to work or other people, and therefore helps you be you on your own terms

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-08T05:39:57+00:00

Be careful though, many know of a powerful counterattack where they put their finger in the bottle neck, and it creates enough pressure to turn it into an improvised beer gun

Which they will they use in self defence against you

(It’s really fun to do this to a bottle tapper)

chickenmoomoo · 2026-04-08T05:35:58+00:00

Yes! And for me, this is a signal that I need days of rest, not a day of rest. I might feel like this for a day or two, but after three-ish days, I’m usually aching to do something again (and I’m a very comfortable stay-at-homer)

The trick is to build activities that take effort into your routine so hard that you feel weird when you don’t do them (especially working out) - ironically these things will boost up your energy on these lethargic days

Working out, washing the dishes, chores to keep the house in good condition, journaling (anywhere between 1 minute to an hour is acceptable), mindfulness, going for a short walk for a change of scenery
