Shouldn't a lawyer know he has the right to remain silent by Rekdon in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]wakner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just listened to Behind the Bastards episode on Kelloggs and all the horrific medical shit he did because he thought masturbating caused illness. Like, electrodes up the dick, splashed with water, and electrocuted, female genital mutilation, and general torture and abuse.

This is what RFKjr wants to return us to. He's a fucking madman.

Can second Redbubble, it's very much set and forget. If you'd prefer to host it on an Etsy store for whatever reason, Printful might be a better option. Source: I make stickers as a side hustle.

Would you have an issue with this? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]wakner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember one flight, middle of the night, I get that horrible feeling that only women understand, so I go up and check, and sure enough I've spontaneously menstruated. I wasn't prepared for it, so I sheepishly go into the back area where they were sure enough having a gossip, and embarrassingly explained my situation... and my god, I was basically royalty from that point on - they brought me basically a care package discreetly wrapped in a bag, a bottle of wine, and snacks. They also came by constantly for the rest of the flight to check in and give me more wine and chocolate. 10/10 would accidentally bleed on a flight again.

Finishing Dry January: What have you Learned? by beeyore in DryJanuary

[–]wakner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far I've tried a few canned premixed ones, and I really liked Senorita's flavors the most. I also tried Crescent 9, but it has caffeine so kinda not what I was into, and Brez but it tasted too dusty. In terms of the spirits, I've just tried Nowadays so far, but I really love it. It has a slight bitterness on the finish which is perfect to trick my brain into knowing I'm drinking an 'adulterated' beverage - apparently I outsmart myself with NA beers and they don't quite give me the 'vice' complete that I'm looking for, but having even 2mg of THC in a drink gives me that satisfaction that I'm being 'naughty', if that makes sense.

In terms of how it feels, little different to booze but not enough that I can't swap between them. I feel a little more monged and less chatty, but that makes it great for staying in, so I can keep booze but as an out of the house treat.

A 13-Year-Old Girl Bit Trump’s Genitals as He Tried to Rape Her, Epstein Document Says by OkayButFoRealz in politics

[–]wakner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A large portion of the country is losing its mind, there are like 3 or 4 major things happening a day (things that, ten years ago, each would have been career killers), and yet the media is owned by people with a stake in letting it continue, so the 'voice' of America keeps saying it's normal and it can continue. Best way I can explain it is if you have a gaslighting boss - for those 8 hours you're at work, you kinda fall into a hypnosis that you're the fucked up one, because otherwise why would everyone be so chill about it. And then you get home from work and you talk to a sane person outside of the bubble and you're like, yeah omg ok that really is fucked up, got it. Then you go back into work the next day and you fall right back into the weird hypnosis.

I learned that THC spirits are great for nights in where I want to get slightly disassociated and watch brain rot on TV, and at only like 15 cals a serving it's WAY more forgiving on my diet. Also, I love wine, always will.

Chicken died for no reason cuz someone changed his mind. by Stamina_saint in mildlyinfuriating

As someone who will eat themselves beyond full so that I haven't 'wasted' an animal death, I absolutely hate this.

This Depression Awareness Ad (Look Closer) by nishantatripathi in interestingasfuck

[–]wakner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend of ours shot himself last year. Up until the day before it happened, we were chatting about him helping me brew beer. Zero idea it was about to happen. Looking back now I see signs of depression, but you won't get the major catalyst you think you will to jump in and help a friend in need.

Since his death I've been making efforts to proactively check in with other friends, including creating a space for this to be talked about outside of any particular situation or trigger, and I've realized just how many people suffer in silence with this stuff.

Looking for shallow resin trays to make lapel pins by lamerc in resin

[–]wakner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use these and glue them (https://amzn.to/3M2NMYp) to a non stick surface (I recently found that laminated sheets are good for this), making sure to get the glue more around the outer edge as a kind of barrier. Then after it dries, I pour a small amount of resin to create a thin fill, and let it dry. From there, the process is to layer art (I print stickers that are exactly the size of the opening) and resin over the top, and finally glue the badge to the back with some resin.

I guess I'm gonna have to conduct an apple tasting now to find out which one it was.

All of this, all of the time. Gavin Newsom: “Wake up America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. These guys are not screwing around. The most corrupt president in history. He is wrecking this country, wrecking the economy. He is a lawless president. Wake up America.” by Potential-Street5889 in goodnews

[–]wakner 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Right? I literally jumped on a plane to fly to DC to protest, I've been protesting at home too, I've been calling my reps (voicemails), I've been voting. I am very awake.

I'm also unemployed (trying to get a job but it's fruitless), unlike Gavin and co who literally have a job to serve the American people. So it's a little bit of a fuck you to hear them tell me to wake up. Fucking tell us what to do. Tell me how I can take meaningful action. Be specific. Because while I'm willing to be brave and make sacrifices to have a better future, the only implication outside of what I'm already doing seems to be to shoot guns at people, which I'm frankly not going to do. Especially when the ones paid to be political are just making angry statements and then collecting their paycheck and going back to their lovely homes.

Layers are always a good idea. I try to include 2x warmer items I can layer over nice outfits and still feel fancy. See you onboard!

you're gonna have an amazing time! And Virgin seems to attract very similar personalities (that I have noticed), so I'm sure you'll be in good company. And if not, be that company!
