  • From my memory, the timing seemed to align with Facebook. Moving from anonymous chatrooms to proper Social Media with a/s/l information and more already populated.

    Even worse though, she doesn’t know any of the early memes. Hampster Dance, Badger Badger Badger, Peanut Butter Jelly Time, Leeeeroy Jenkins. Salad Fingers. How does a young, gothic lass get through her teen years without Salad Fingers?


  • Yeah, but hiring is a big series of assumptions. Resumes and interviews only give you so much confidence on how a person will actually do in the job.

    Speaking for myself, I want to hire quickly. I get 10 resumes for 1 spot, I’m not going to agonize over whether the PhD is having a mid-life change and really wants the fast food job, or if they are going to split in a month, or hell, if they have some addiction or personal problem that prevents them from holding a job that matches their qualifications. If there’s a candidate that meets the reqs and seems like a fit, I’m moving right along with them.

    If the PhD is convincing in an interview that they’re really just looking for a switch, sure, but I’m not going to waste a lot of time and energy waiting to be convinced when there are other candidates with a more expected profile also vying for the job.

    Coffee in the morning. Switching to working from home, I started drinking way too much coffee but I’m back down to one cup a day typically. More than the excessive caffeine, I started noticing my teeth getting more sensitive, which I think was due to having coffee sitting on the enamel so much more. So one cup, drink it within 30 min, then brush my teeth.

    Bubbly water or tea the rest of the day if I feel like something other than water.



  • Before people get excited, search penal code 377. OP is misrepresenting it and slapping a rainbow over it.

    377 is a anti-homosexuality law. Protections for men who have been raped are still needed, but are a separate issue from 377.

    Here is the text of 377:

    Unnatural offences: Whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal, shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine. Explanation: Penetration is sufficient to constitute the carnal intercourse necessary to the offence described in this section.



  • “She’s hot, but really ought to keep it on the DL for me to enjoy and no one else to see because think of the children”.

    What a weird little humble brag while also putting down your girlfriend and blaming her for broader society’s behavior. If she’s not lying, advocating for unhealthy habits or trends, encouraging parasocial relationships, or spreading misinformation, she’s not the problem.

    They’d get less plasma. Putting the non-plasma portion back in what enables people to donate/sell plasma a couple times a week versus ~monthly or less if donating whole blood.

    Also, we finally have the vampire bat population under control. We can’t be feeding them that much blood, their strength will return and we’ll be right back to the dark vampiric ages.
