youtube getting more agressive blocking users after 3 videos
Sharing this: don't know why this works, but my dad found refreshing the cache in UBlock makes this thing finally shut the fuck up.

Serious answer: eggs have a protective barrier around them, so sperm actually need to group in bunches to break the barrier, and a single lone sperm is incredibly unlikely to do well on its own. As such the ones that have a higher chance of success are actually the ones that are last and get in after the barrier's been weakened.

What's the best ice breaker exercise for the class that a professor used on your first day of class?
My highschool chem teacher's first words were. "Ice breakers are so boring, let's go blow stuff up!" And then imediately showed us what happened when you drop a cube of pure sodium on water.
Best fucking class I ever had.

Hell correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't one of the most infamous examples of this that the government refuses to admit the unit 731 existed?

It gets really good after the first 31 episodes
Me with Bojack. I straight up tell most folks to skip the first 5 episodes and start with 1-6. The jump in quality the show does when it gets to "The Telescope" is staggering, it doesn't feel like the same show.

Be yourself and be true to who you are. Don't let neurotypical conditioning define your identity.

Personally I find this form of thinking far more dangerous: I come from a country in which being "mentally disabled" would literally mean me being unable to function in polite society, and being a "retard" is something pretty common, even with adults. The fact I was undiagnosed autistic until I left saved me. Sure you don't function like everyone else, and yeah, it's hard - trust me -, but to say you're broken is basically undermining everyone else that has the same condition as you.

Unironically love mist for extremely hot fuck off days where you run it for less than 10 secs and it cools you off fast.

Dude I wish. Didn't know what candy cigs were til I was on my 20s, and I learned that the chocolater sells fake chocolate joins. You bet your ass i was pretending to smoke that shit.

Nope. If you look it up there's serveral instances of rock pigeons making "nests" like this, it's legitimately just a thing they do specifically.

Kentucky school district cancels classes less than two weeks into year due to Covid, flu and strep

Probably missing the point, but RN I'm stuck with a horrid ass flu that makes my entire muscles sore, couldn't sleep yesterday because of cold sweats, and just all in all feel like garbage, and you could not imagine the relief I felt when tested it turned out to not be COVID (And yes, I am up to date with the COVID vaccines).

This is actually a philosophical problem. I think it's the parable of pacifism, if I remember right? Basically, the advocacy for total pacifism and acceptance of all groups doesn't work if one group is specifically advocating for the death of the others because then there's a net loss.
So yes. No nazis. Period.

Honestly, the first thing that I thought about was what if the sign had a slur word. Sure freedom of speech means say what you wanna say, that doesn't mean people aren't gonna sock you in the face.

I mean shit dude, sometimes these people literally have no one else to go to. There was a super scary example of it on a Chuggaconroy video where a comment was like "thanks for the memories and for making my days a bit better" and everyone figured it out, and like every single comment - including the creator - told him not to and they succeeded. But still it was fucking insane to see on a YouTube video.

Couples, what secret language do you use to tell each other details that the company you're in doesn't understand or notice?
Might just be cus we're both neurodivergent, but we have a lot of non verbal cues, though he's nowhere near as showy as I am.
Whenever I end up overstimmed and go non-verbal, I tug at his shirt gently, or paw at him. From then it's simple ASL. For him, he genuinely just has simple phrasing or wordings that are kind of "key words" between us. The both of us are high functioning in our 20s, this is just kind of how it ended up and we're both super not subtle about it. It's great.
Edit: we literally do pigeon noises at each other at random. One of us says coo and the other goes roo. It's literally just a "thing" between us and it started because of us watching pigeons together and it stuck.

What does the fear of being judged by others hold you back from doing that you would otherwise do?
Bone gnawing for me. And I genuinely mean that, I find gnawing on a piece of bone insanely calming for me, but it makes literally everyone I talk to insanely uncomfortable. I love gnawing on bbq ribs, chicken wing bones, pork chop bones, T bones. I love bone marrow and trying to dig for it. Family says it's bad etiquette, though my partner doesn't mind.

Like I get there are several reasons people remain. It just feels kinda weird to listen to a podcaster or youtuber go off on twittter, yet they still use twitter exclusively.
Really, I'm still on Twitter because I follow a lot of my favorite artists there, and they sure don't have Mastodon.
