Well… you haven’t met Kyle. When he lets one rip… everybody in the room teleports outta there. dude should ask his doctor about lactose intolerance…

Honestly… even before the meltdown, content was mostly crap.

For kbin/lemmy to be useful; it needs to be its own thing. Emulating crap is just crappier crap.

the only content on reddit is bots reposting shit… and Spez playing the sad trombone.

wait… you can do that?
Can I learn this power?! how does one learn this power?

macgyver always carried a few slices… in case he needed an industrial sealant…

But we like the dark.
Darkness, for dark deeds.

Two slices, you say?

First video game I remember playing? Short Order on NES (with the pad.) That was followed shortly by monopoly- also NES.

First game I beat? was dad’s copy of Zelda (NES,) Which… I wasn’t supposed to be playing. I got caught when I saw my dad was struggling with the water temple.
“Dad…dad DAD. you go here. get that. Do this. And then do this that and this.”
“Oh. Cool. wait. how do you know this?”
“Oh i beat it last week.”
<awkward pause>
“you better pay attention. that’s the boss.”
“We’re not telling mom about this.”

please tell me there’s a highschool football team in that minivan?

BDSM parlor.

context is important. in a waiting area or lounge, they should be okay with it- especially if it’s the kind of place you’ll be waiting for hours.

visiting your inlaws? people are weird.

Eh. yeah. Kind of. Apparently NuCanon is that the Sith split from the Jedi “thousands of years ago.” the point I was trying to make is that it’s a question of degrees- medieval catholicism would have viewed protestants as heretics (and did all sorts of ugly things to them.); where the really dangerous ones were branded as satan-worshipers and… actively disposed of.

That said, the Sith definitely became their own little social club, and made sure everyone knew that they were distinct from the dark jedi.

Kaspersky. Back when the russians started getting weird with things, and kaspersky… got dubious… I canceled my subscription and switched to a different AV. when it was about to expire, they sent a ‘we’ll automatically renew’. So I tried to log in- my credentials were invalid- I use a PW manager, so no. It wasn’t a bad password-
the password reset option wouldn’t work (literally wouldn’t send the validation link.)
Called their CS who told me that subscriptions were handled by a 3rd party in the US- Digital River.
Digital river said I should cancel it on their website.
got DR and Kaspersky’s CS on the same phone call. they finally complied and canceled the subscription.
A year later… “Your subsctiption will automatically renew!”

called them again. sent a letter. thought that was that until I saw they billed me anyhow.
tried to call them. they were giving me the run around.

Called the bank. to report fraud.
They were useless until I told them my next call would be FBI’s financial crimes people. Suddenly, that charge back became super easy.

Sith are different from Dark Jedi, yes. for IRL analogs, the Jedi Order is like the catholic church around Luther’s time. The Sith are satanists, Dark Jedi are like Protestants.

Dark Jedi still perceive the Force under the paradigm of the Jedi, they just choose to embrace the Dark Side.

the third type of Jedi- Gray Jedi probably existed inside the Order itself- people like Jinn and Revan.

truck nutz. like. not new (which might be a gag. I did zip tie some onto a friends car once. But, uh, it was a prius, and they were dragging on the gorund.)

honestly, Badgers are strong enough on their own.

Together? world domination, baby.

But yea dating just sucks in general. Fuck that.

I’ve had so many people telling me horror stories from internet dating that I’ve just stayed away. Ironically, I’ve had at least one relationship that while it ended… (lets just say it ran it’s course,) it wasn’t horrible. We kind of fell into it, though, as friends then more.

The current relationship started more intentionally so- but it still started as “I like you as a friend, maybe more, lets see where it goes,” kind of thing.

Well fast forward a week, I keep texting her to set something up, but she’s not responding. I think she’s ghosted me. I mean, that’s fine, but if you don’t want to date me anymore, then just let me know. I will respect your decision.

well… about that. it might not be, but it also might just be that’s her general way of breaking things off. There’s a truly shocking number of guys that don’t respond well to rejection and get all crazy. It may not be a you-thing, just a past experiences thing. She has no way of knowing, really, how you will behave until it happens.
