Some places only allow crossbows if you have a disability that keeps you from using a bow.

What a great reminder to turn off all those trackers. Thanks Lemmy!

Well said.

I hope everyone who paid money for the book asks for a refund. If folks use ai in their work, it should be flagged as such so the consumer can make an educated decision on whether to purchase.

Knives that don't suck. Also getting chickens. I love them so much, great pets and they lay eggs :)

Just in case some folks don't know... some breeds are designed for this. My buddy's Pyrenees will do anything to stay outside in the snow and not come in as often as possible.

That ending was surprisingly sad.

Not true at all, honestly kind of fear mongering. Mushrooms like morels are extremely hard to mistake unless you resist all forms of obvious Id.

It's often fixable if caught soon enough. Basically the affected creature gets ripped a new asshole under anasthesia.

Not very exciting, but loved hanging out on beaches on the west coast. This one went from a dock to a nice sandy beach that was bordered by a clay cliff. Well, a friend and I roll up and run quite a distance (ah, youthful energy!) exploring along the clay cliffs when the waves get weirdly big and loud. I guess the tide was actually coming in, not going out, and the cliffs weren't climbable. Only way safely out was off the beach and back to the dock. The stretch we were on wasn't even accesible at high tide, totally underwater. My friend was a big fella, but he tucked it in and ran with me like Ive never seen him run before. We were fine, but I remember feeling that realization strike.

Woman here, can confirm. Worked as an aircraft mechanic for a year and a truck driver for another, you will encounter the scum of the earth. So glad to be back to working with civilized humans.

People whine that women wont enter the trades, theres a reason they dont want to and its not because the work is too hard.

Im surprised how many people here hate self checkout. I am much faster at scanning and bagging my own items than most cashiers. I almost never get errors, and if I do I know what to do to clear them typically. I always look at self check first, and then human lines second. Plus, none if that "how's your day? Want to apply for a store credit card?" talk from a bored looking cashier.

Sounds like you're cooking it wrong. It feels disrespectful, but a lot of the people criticizing this probably rub their hands together and say, "yummy!" when they pull a burger out of a bag without thinking of the calf/cow it once was.

Sometimes the lining of their stomach is too irritated to stop throwing up. Strong anti nausea meds, a look around via Xray or otherwise to make sure there isn't anything that needs to be surgically removed, and tons of intravenous fluids can fix them right up. Scary and costly, but Callie will likely be ok. Sending good vibes to yall!

I am not the person you responded to. I just wanted to say that I stopped and thought, "wow, that stuff probably DOESNT decompose, huh?" as I scrolled. Thoughts of misogyny or wondering how old the poster must have been never crossed my mind, so I was surprised to see some of these comments. I guess it's nice it's such a talking point.

Im glad you posted a detailed response on why you posted it either way, just in case anyone else was curious.

They arent hurting anyone... yet.

But they definitely stand behind the principles of those who did in the past, and presumably can be expected to in the future. All because of some beliefs about race. Some of these folks long for the days of Emmett Till to return, to be able to do the unspeakable and get away free as a bird.

They basically stand for a belief already covered in the blood of innocents. There is a reason they protest with faces covered, so no one knows who they are and what they stand for when they take the costume off and go back to real life.

Just sucks the ai learned it by stealing. Valid take though, I guess. It feels a lot like saying, "factory farming is great for me. All I care about is meat that tastes decent. That's it."

How do people have money to just afford replacing things like this? Or is this a sacrificial chair for the cat? Is all their furniture like this? I have so many questions.

I had a very Christian coworker who already had a daughter and who was part of the maga pipeline. He didn't hide his disappointment when he told me the gender of he and his wife's next child had been revealed as another girl. Sent a shudder up my spine how he paused and said it in a sad tone, the way you would if you were a teenager expecting a Mustang for your birthday and instead having your parents roll up in a Saturn for you. What kind of world do we live in where folks are disappointed that their next kid will be female? It's dumb society has been crafted this way, stupid af.

Youre getting down votes, but to some extent this is true. Social media in particular has a markedly bad effect on especially developing youth.
