The Dark Lord ☑️

Except with Matter, all of those other standards are buying into the universal standard.

Maybe they meant rubles. I think I may find that value in my couch.

I hate that that’s the case.

I’ve been trying to lose weight, so I chopped off my leg just below the knee. I’m several pounds down, and I didn’t have to stop eating even a calorie. It’s amazing.

The only issue is that now I don’t have a leg and exercise may be difficult….

He called them out for cultural appropriation, and people online started sending them threats. He clarified to everyone that although he’s not aligned with the company, people need to back down. Threats are obviously inappropriate.

Why stop there? Have every President, Senator, and Member of Congress investigated at all times. Whether we think they’re corrupt or not.

Therapy appointments

Right, and that leads to issues with men seeking help. Men don’t get needed therapy at the same rate, and our suicide rates are way higher. So I guess one can answer your original question with: women can get help without as much social stigma.

Note to anyone reading: It’s not weak to see a physical therapist, so it’s not weak to see a mental one. You see a therapist to be strong, regardless of the which part of your body (muscles or brain) you’re training. You also don’t need to be having an issue in order to get therapy. Sometimes it’s just nice to talk through everyday things, and learn ways to cope with small things.

Misery 2

fawning celebration of its subject

That’s all I needed to hear to know that it’s bad.

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who does a tune up of your bike because he knows how busy you’ve been and just wants to help.

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who invites you over for dinner and then sends you home with the leftovers.

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who has an old, but still pretty great TV you can have if you want it.

White to black, because people say that white and black aren’t colours.

But I just say “FFFFFFuck y000000u!”

Everyone’s talking about the tech, but I’ll talk about the user base. When you make a post or comment on Reddit, it often feels like you get lost in some black hole of other posts or comments. No one sees your comment because there are 1000 other comments on the same post.

At Lemmy, there are fewer users and fewer comments, but your comments actually get seen. People upvote. I weirdly get way more upvotes at Lemmy than I did at Reddit, in spite of the smaller user base here. Because of that, I’m way more active here than I was on Reddit.

Hahhaha. Totally missed that. I just assumed it was a joke.

Makes sense.

1. Create a massive rocket
2. Burn a massive amount of rocket fuel to get it into space
3. Surround the comet ice in enough artificially made heat resistant materials so it doesn’t burn up in the atmosphere
4. Use more rocket fuel to angle the giant ball of ice so it doesn’t burn up on re-entry
5. Burn some more fuel to slow down its descent once inside the atmosphere so it doesn’t crash into the earth, ending all life in the immediate area
6. Drop the ball of unsalted ice in the ocean

DON’T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME!

Octopus is obviously the correct answer. They’re smart, they can fit through a hole the size of a quarter, they can camouflage, and they can shoot ink. They’re the superheroes of the animal world already.

Gotta make a 45

To quote Rob McElhenney on getting fit:

"I’m gonna break it down for you, because it’s actually quite simple, and anybody can do this. Anybody on the planet can do this. First thing’s first: if you have job—like a 9-5 job—quit that. Do you like food? Forget about that. Because you’re never going to enjoy anything you eat. Alcohol? Sorry. That’s out. So what you need to do—you have a chef, right? like a personal chef?—make sure the chef makes you a lot of chicken breast. And make sure you keep your caloric intake at a certain level. And as you go to your physician 2-3 times a week—just to monitor all your testosterone levels—because testosterone is important to building muscle. You’re good friends with the trainer from Magic Mike? So you want to give Arin a call. And you want to make sure he’s at your house and takes you to the gym at least twice a day, because you’re gonna want to do your muscle-building in the morning and then your cardio in the afternoon. Now, do you have a family? Like a significant other or kids? Yeah, forget about them. You’re not going to have time to deal with them. So that’s really all you have to do. And make sure you have a studio pay for the entire thing, because it could become exceptionally expensive. So, I think if you just do all those things, then you too can have an absolutely unrealistic body type, such as me.”

Fair enough, but it’s also important to note that 15-30% of gym goers are using them. If you don’t look like the top guy at the gym, there might be a reason, and you might be among the fittest clean gainers there.

That super ripped dude at the gym is on steroids too, so it’s unfair to compare oneself to him.
