My mom similarly background checks my partners and friends. It’s pretty annoying. I try to spare as many as I can by feeding identifying details as slowly as I can.

I recently moved out of my apartment into a new place and when I reached out to friends to help me move some larger pieces of furniture, I suddenly found myself in the middle of a scheduling conundrum where people were telling me what time and day they were individually free. I was trying to coordinate with them to see when was best for them. Then it hit me, I was asking for a favor not planning a party. It then became very easy for me to just consider most of them busy. I moved 90% of it by myself. I got one friend to help me move 2 pieces of furniture that I could not physically disassemble and that was that. That friend gets a reward for the help and I’m still a little bitter that everyone else was too busy.
Asking for help moving will show you really how far some people will go for you.


I really dislike self insert because I’m not a big fan of myself in general lol. The only time I try to make a character even vaguely look like myself is when I’m playing with online friends who don’t actually know what I look like. Irl friends in multiplayer games either get to see my best Picasso impression or whatever joke is dinking around in the ol brain tank in the moment. But for people who may never see me in person, that’s when I try to make a character look like me. Any single player game where I create a character, I want to be as far away from my own reality as possible so I often randomize until I have something interesting and modify from there or I spend hours making someone I have never seen before in my life but could conceivably exist.


Yes some people enjoy minimalism but most of the time you only see minimalism like this in real estate. The goal of minimalism in real estate is to allow you to see a blank canvas. There are two schools of thought. You can show a potential buyer what you think is a good use of the space to give them an idea of what to do with it. Or you can show them next to nothing and allow them to fill in the blanks with the furnishings and decor they would be bringing with them into the home. I much prefer the latter when looking at a space to move into. I couldn’t live in such a sterile place but I can much better visualize where all my shit is going.


I pulled the cloud modem out of my car. It drives just fine without a connection to the internet or cell towers.

Honestly it would just be leftist cannibalism. Lefties telling other lefties they aren’t left enough.
Hey you, reading this message, you aren’t left enough. Be more left.
ZFS head correcting you to “dataset”
Just saying, telling everyone they smell like shit is not an excellent way to make friends. But you do you.
I’m sorry you feel that way. But that attitude might be why you have poor social relationships.
If everywhere you go smells like shit, check your shoes.
It was me, I spent generational wealth on buying as much merch and albums and concert tickets as I could from Nickelback. Nickelback is awesome!
dont worry guys, I’ll take the hit on this one


Transphobia, homophobia, gamergate agitator, alt-right dog whistler, Billionaire. Take your pick.
No this is like wearing a bra specifically to hold your nipples and not the breasts. The bra does this already. The right pair of underwear also already do this for your balls.


That’s a safety ring. They’re silicone rings you were around machinery. You can still wear a representative wedding band but it won’t deglove you if you catch it on a blade or if it snags during a fall. Climbers wear them too.
Since when does a static IP address cost less than a streaming service? Domains sure. But a static is like $20-30 a month. I use dynamic DNS for any services that need to access the WAN side of my firewall (very very few) and I use tailscale for all things on my local network I need to access from outside. I would never let my media server or NAS touch the WAN.


Hurr durr murica fat an dum. Very creative and original thought you just had.


Bullshit. Your entire comment history is just hatred and insults toward Americans. Zero room for understanding. No real suggestion from how you talk about them that you’ve even tried. You don’t want to make change. You want a punching bag. You love that the US is coming apart at the seams. Nearly 5% of the global population and you just want them to burn as a society. 350 million people and you have it in your head that not a single one of them is even fighting. People protest every damn day but you’re upset because you want to see blood.
You’re a sick person. Front row seats for the gladiator show, angry that we’re fighting missiles with words.
There’s a bit more to it than that and I mostly agree with what you’re saying but I was in a bind and people who I’ve dropped everything to help in short notice, did not reciprocate. That’s all.
