But if it shorts out as soon as it gets wet, it’ll never get to the proper depths..

Uh huh.

And how does that compare to people who actually get the right amount of sleep every single day?

This is just reducing the damage of chronic sleep deprivation, it doesn’t negate the damage. The sleep deprivation is still very harmful even if “catching up” makes it slightly less bad.

Let’s normalize proper sleep, and make this chronic deprivation as much of a bizarre outlier as it should be in the modern world.

I found so many adorable little short games that are nonetheless amazing fun. Tinykin, cat quest, troll hunters, stray… none of those are over 10 hours, even if you achievement hunt. Maybe stray, since you have to beat it more than once.

Like they don’t have to be super long to be super good. And sometimes you only have the energy to play my little pony (actually fun and super quick because it’s made for small kids, and sometimes you just want something that takes 2 hours to get 100% on because that’s the mood..)

I normally prefer super long exploration games, but those get old. Especially when they are all filler content like run here run there kill 5 things then go back to the same place 6 more times for dumb little quests you could have done all at once if they just gave them to you… I like 100%, but man they often make that so very tedious.

There’s a lan/vr arcade near me, has like 40 super high end gaming rigs.. they only get busy when there’s a big event like a non-local tournament or something. We also have multiple pinball/arcade bars, and most of them also have some retro consoles set up. One of the 4-man arcade machines at one of the places even has something like a retropi installed in it and you can pick between hundreds of games up to GameCube era, but nobody really ever plays those either. (The pinball is the draw).

Can’t see this doing a lot better, at least not in places with options.

Virtually none of it bordering on actually none of it, including the so-called biodegradable plastics. Those typically have to be composted in very specific industrial composting conditions to function any differently than normal plastic.

Ok I do get that this is meant to be funny. All the same:

I’ve never really thought about how much easier murder would be in space..

The chances of someone actually finding the body if you jettison.. slim to nil. That’s a tiny bitty person-package in a huge vast emptiness. And I bet people go missing all the time for various reasons, especially in hubs like space stations.. people go missing all the time in normal terrestrial cities, after all.

Plus most of your environment is metal, so no foot prints or dirt on your shoes, hair and such would blow around making it kinda worthless, etc.. heck if you can just avoid any sort of struggle, and find a way to hide the person until you get to the airlock with some other stuff in need of jettison, you’d be all but guaranteed to not be caught.

Are there any episodes/movies of anything that explore this more? I can’t think of any, and I’m a bit curious about that when shows like Dexter were super popular..

So how long before these folks realize that TST is going to do shit like this every time so they probably should just fucking stop trying to shove their religion down our throats…?

Like, this isn’t new, TST have been doing shit like this for decades and the religious wrong still haven’t figured it out?

Pathetic. And such a waste of time, effort, and energy.

I have a greenworks push mower and I can clearly hear the birds while I’m mowing.

It’s not the most powerful thing, but it does the job really quietly.

You can get them in pink and white too! As an extra fuck you over the normal yellow which can happen on their own.

Make seed bombs of pink dandelions and launch them before a storm.

Side note; I want pink dandelions but I’m sure my neighbors would hate me… but I also have an asshole neighbor and I’ve totally thought about seeding his property with them and letting them spread to mine…. I won’t do it, because cameras, but I want to so much.

Nah, that only works in super close-knit, small town communities.

I don’t know any of my neighbor’s last names and I’ve lived here for 12 years. I’m in a semi-small town. I know my direct neighbors first names, and that’s about it, because anything more is unnecessary.

If I got something sent to a random name at my address, I’d treat it the same way as junk mail addressed to me; recycled without a second thought. I still get stuff for 3 other former residents, including pension stuff, despite being here over a decade so..

Do they expect him to be fully gay, even when it’s right there in the word bi-sexual..? Like his options are majority women, minority men. (self-admitting bisexual and gay men are a minority, even if -and I do mean if; this is not a statement of fact- actually most people are more fluid than they’d otherwise believe or admit, if they were raised to be just chill with whatever) especially for having a family..? That’s just statistics.

Apparently nobody who voted here has watched it, and thus missed the reference.. and implications.

Buzz buzz, :p
