Ooh poggers

Lets do it together
Want me to beat it up?

but im at the coffee shop now and im getting stuff done
coffee shops are the best
just realized feathers for red get ehre today
i have a lot of work to do though so i guess ill be staying up late lmfao
feathers for what?
red’s massive collar, i didnt havve enough to finish the back
elden ring 1st main boss
ty
btw if you wanna talk about elden ring #video-games might be a good place
good job though!!
wait like the red wolf of radagon?
raise your hands if everytime you take a break you go "...i could be working"
cause me
thats me
The sheer amount of times people said to me my way of doing something won't work and it worked better than theirs has contributed greatly to my superiority complex
Einstein: nooo thats not how things work
Bohr: haha quantum goes brr
it's my birthday 😈
happy birthday
what about the times when it didnt though
Happy birfdays!
Yaaaas
What do we do for celebration
make a giant sword?
not today but maybe tomorrow
Im coming
I never said to myself that I'm gonna succeed only that I'm gonna try so any outcome is within my expected range of results failure is a part of the creative process
I just try in another way there are always more ways to try
Does anybody else find it weird there are so little political assassinations
probably
there're enough political executions though
no political assassinations lately, just severe cases of "jumped out of a 10th floor window"
That or polonium tea
Or novichok
But I mean like that's russia and like china north korea various authoritarian countries
Those are orchestrated by the government I meant like the alexander II or kennedy ones
Shinzo abe one is the only one I know in last decades
Also I just had the best worldbuilding idea ever: in an interspecies galactic war secret agents try to get to the homeworlds of opposing species to study the poisons and venoms to create bio weapons that work on that species because using pow's for experiments has been banned in that galaxy but not bio weapons
People who make it to high office do so in no small part because they've made themselves sufficiently challenging to assassinate. The stakes that world leaders play for mean that its really hard for someone to make it to to the world power stage without foiling a few attempts.
Assassination by means of direct warfare, major player to major player, is frequently a lose lose situation because it stops being who has the best army and starts being who has the best assassins/bodyguards.
it levels the playing field
Assassination by means of terrorism is challenging precisely because these people have survived the gauntlet to make it to the world power stage
E.G. why was thatcher not assassinated
Turns out that people who will drink wine from an unknown source don't make it to power
Archduke Franz Ferdinand 1914 Austria-Hungary
Mahatma Gandhi 1948 India
Leon Trotsky 1940 Mexico
Salvador Allende 1973 Chile
Martin Luther King Jr. 1968 United States
Olof Palme 1986 Sweden
Anwar Sadat 1981 Egypt
Yitzhak Rabin 1995 Israel
Juvénal Habyarimana 1994 Rwanda
Zoran Djindjic 2003 Serbia
Benazir Bhutto 2007 Pakistan
Boris Nemtsov 2015 Russia
All of my geopolitics I learned from Charles Stross's Laundry Files
@muted smelt where did you get that list?
Shinzo Abe 2022 Japan
I asked ai to make a quick one
further proving that you shouldn't trust AI just quite yet 😛
Alexander II 1881 Russia
John F Kennedy 1963
Darya Dugina 2022 Russia
Found the list
This is a list of assassinations which took place on the continent of Europe.
For the purposes of this article, an assassination is defined as the deliberate, premeditated murder of a prominent figure, often for religious or political reasons.
Russia Italy and France have the most assassinations, that's interesting
Oh there's a world one nvm
This is a list of assassinations, sorted by location.
For the purposes of this article, an assassination is defined as the deliberate, premeditated murder of a prominent figure, often for religious, political or monetary reasons.
i’m sure there’s no famous austrian hungarian assassination that could’ve done anything important on that list!
I wonder if there is a list of attempted assassinations
maybe he shouldn’t have christian’ified so much norse myth https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/991190078380584971/1090362692486844426/3A822368-2113-474E-8425-35FEE8B7B0AB.jpg
always
wait, he got assassinated?? who would have thought
yeah i didn’t know either!

the coffee shop today is out of chai so they’re making a surprise smoothie

i enjoy being a regular here lmao
this is amazing actually
dang 
How is everyone?
pretty good
Is there a name for this uh... texture, or pattern or whatever its called https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/512790960816783363/1089890241822871674/IMG_20230327_203209.jpg
you know that moment you suddenly remember than cringy memory from high school
I'm not fine 
Its okay everyones cringe at school
Well... uh... it was the circumstances
and not me
I'm always cringe 
just the circumstances back then was cringier than me
rib stitch probably https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_knitting_stitches
i hate seed stitch so much
Folks I hope you are having a good day today
Once again I am busied by work these days. And adulthood in general
At some point in history if we don't achieve an utopia in like a thousand years you'll be able to just dig a metre deep hole basically anywhere in europe and you'll find at least 1 munition
I don't know which I hate more
the rain or the complete unreliability of my weather app
at least the rain doesnt lie to you
they do in Indo
Once a rain only lasted for 15 minutes
and gone
thats not lying
once it's sunny and raining at the same time
you shouldve predicted that

Yesterday i got rain for 5 minutes kek. There goes my excuse for not going grocery
Colorado is like that a lot. I got snowed on when it was well above freezing and sunny out(it was blowing in from over the mountains)
yikes
my cat is meowing at me
she should figure out to open her own food can
theyre too hard sorry cat
funn
My cat would be like "none of that canned junk" and only eat fish
Have to boil for em. Spoiled brats
if you're cooking for your own, might as well 
i opened it and she does not seem greatful
smh cat
im still thinking about that susprise smoothie i need that recipe wtf
it was so good
there was coconut milk in it
i know that
and then probably orange anad i think strawberry
my cat is now eating CAKJE
always knew she was a monarchist
Let them eat cake
which one 
conversation i had with my dad today
"what podcast are you listening to"
"oh its about the french revolution"
"which revolution"
"the second one- where they overthrew the monarchy. wait, no thats the first one they overthrew, no it's the third one then, not to be confused with the one that might happen in like a week"
Everyone was poor and starving and they were protesting on the streets. Then sheltered and clueless queen marie antoinette says if they dont have bread then let them eat cake.
Thats just a legend as theres no evidence she said that
theres also a legend she washed her face with a concoction made out of pidgeons
but apparently they mixed up grapes with pidgeons since they sound similar in some language
Lol today i learned ^
"if you are homeless, just buy a home"
Interesting!
I like to think marie antoinette was smarter than the cake quote suggests.
She was an austrian outsider and many people criticized her.
Her mother was one of the best diplomats of the time and she frequently exchanged letters witg and likely getting advice from an expert.
The quote was used to incite anger and she was an easy target
She came to france when 14, by french revolution she's around 30s
I have arrived
Hello!
I betting it's more chaotically gayer
probably not wrong
Just had a very amazing awesome dream I want to go back to it and stay in it forever
(It was a world with magic and I had friends and was pretty)
Also from minor things it had an actually good mobile video game
Two even one was a spin off of the other tho
And the one that wasn't a spin off was a sequel/remake of another very old one also mobile and it was also in the dream but it wasn't that good
Also in one segment for some reason homelander was there?
Except he wasn't really evil
In that segment of the dream for some reason me and some other cool characters were in like a pool or sea and were mermaids
Also in another segment I was wandering around in some fields with like caves or something like that and some mage challenged me to a battle and we had a summoner battle I don't remember who won
Sad I only remember like 10% of the dream
It all really happened, in alternate timelines 
I really really really want to be in that timeline instead of this one
you are in that timeline
at least some facet of you
would you take that timeline away from that you?
I mean I'm ready to enter as not me
As not that me at least
We are different, it would create issues if I just warp in in that body, so I can warp in as another character
We're supposed to get a new fridge sometime today
I foolishly took all the food out of our fridge right at the delivery window
Just eat everything problem solved!
After writing some short stories in my spare time
I have concluded that I'm not cut out to write a book

Inside of you are two wolves: One that desperately wants folks to read your stuff, and the other that's way too embarrassed to show your writing to anyone.
I show mine to my friend who got me to write short stories AND also an english teacher
Also miko 
Hey thats me!
If you keep writing that might change! Though, all that matters is you enjoy doing it
i’d want to do a non fiction book actually
Ooh, what would you write about
I just heard new zealand and many other countries would refuse visas for autistic people, yeah I dont think Im getting an official diagnosis document now
New Zealand yes
I haven't checked yet if Australia actively refuses people on the grounds of... Autism
Refusing on the grounds of being on the autistic spectrum is wild as hell
probably cosplay or fashion or something along those lines
Sounds cool!
sounds like a violation of human rights to me
After a quick search it seems they reject any expensive medical needs. I guess they had many people moving in for the welfare benefits or something
Its def not right though
totally tbh
def agreed
Me - can't start watching any show
Also me - watches 15 hour long videos on war economics in one day
hello
This game is getting me tired I need help
3rd bos roman empire guy with rhino
always kills me
what to do
I have total play time of 10.9 hours and still not able to get those guys
It made me so frustrating that I don't want to play
💀Roman Empire guy
💀with rhino😭
Do go to #h1-for-new-players
am I counted as new
yes I don't know most of the stuff but 10.9 hours 37 attempts
just wonderin
Oh I see its a chat
not a guide
Until like 50 hours at least probably
I have over 250 hours and haven't finished it completely but I did get the first ending
But also I am bad
I have no idea honestly how many hours in average to complete
There are multiple endings? whattt 250 hours for this game aloneee
what are you saying bruv
Well I haven't been playing to achieve all the endings as fast as possible I mostly been playing just to play
As I do with all roguelikes
I have more hours in other games
330 in terraria and 674 in geometry dash
yes
To just to play hades is amazing ngl It's simple
kill the bull first, then the other guy
The lava spine and the three devil sisters
I did the vice versa just a moment ago
ok, so you succeeded?
Bull killed me but I almost killed him he got me by uck
no.....
xd
next time I will kill that bloddy bull
when Theseus (the human) calls upon the gods, it's harder for me if Asterius (the bull) is still alive
For me I also target asterius first but for another reason, cuz he doesn't have a shield and easier to take
thanks for the advice
I must have a break
tried 3 times in this last hour
250 hours wow
hats off to you
I still play with god mode💀
I should replay bastion and see if I can 100% it
cheeseburgers are really good and also cheeseburgers contain many types of ingredients but my favorite ingredient is cheese
god you're so right
flomf
Me: "My credit score is being punished because I only have one credit card"
brother: "Well, you could get a no fee credit card and increase your accounts, maybe one that has a good rewards program?"
Me: "I wonder if I could get a metal credit card, I want a metal credit card, screw rewards programs"
they even have weight in grams
do you think my bank will let me make my own tungsten credit card?
they should
on the one hand, I want an 18.5g card, on the other hand, its Spensive and it'd kinda make me look like a tool
Want heavy card? Tape stuff onto it!
I don't want a heavy card I want a dense one with fun acoustical properties
let your annoying ADHD student that got constantly called out for making noises when you were inadvertently stimmming out!
I'll try
I was just having the JUICIEST Beowulf Aphro run w Artemis legendary (beat tiny vermin in under a minute)
THEN I ACCIDENTALLY TOLD MY CAST
JUST BEFORE HADES IN ONE OF THE TUNNELS
I walked into that fight with 4 death defiances and just let that old geezer beat the living daylights out of me
There was no damage that man could do to me that I had not done to myself emotionally in those 5 minutes
Funny that in Russian chess is called "checkmates"
I feel like a metal card would just bend
tungsten brick
plastic cards will also bend if you bend them far enough. as long as you don't reach the stress of plastic deformation you're golden
what's a gshock
they're still around?
of course
they are timeless
wait wrong word to use for a watch
Kinda want this one
Purple with black is nice
This one's a throwback model, they give you an old school strap additionally like in the 90's
DW5600 THS-1 something
con todayyyy
time is a precious thread in the fabric of the universe it deserves its own tool of measurement
Si
I dropped my bike off for service and I feel so constrained now
for consolation the Irish soda bread I purchased is tasty
lol so Oliver Sykes' latest pieces in his clothing brand are all named after Death songs, this made me happy
True. I guess it depends on the alloy too. I just feel cards wear out enough and wallets are messy enough that a metal card for me would bend quick lol
how many hours to finish this game for average gamer?
which game?
hades 1
that's a great question for #h1-for-new-players
made it the con it is very very crowded
\o/
now im getting lunch at the mall across from it because con food is very overpriced 👍
Very fun so far i got the stickers i wanted
@bronze lintel i think putting a Japanese spell on food would be a great business investment 
im at the cosplay cafe at the con and the waitress (cosplaying as power) had me say something in Japanese and do a little heart gesture and its actually great so i believe the magic works now
Yes
Cosplay the anime girls!
i just lost miserably at jenga against power so you have to be good at jenga as well fluffy
Power like, chainsaw man?
Yup!
Cool!

I overseasoned my egg
Oh...that works too
I was about to suggest turning yourself in for crimes against food
can I claim for insanity?
Yes

The conversations between you two are


this is the hades discord???
huh?
like what discord are you talking about

I don't think you should lie down while taking shower
Bath tub 
sure cant wait for my school to handout my 50 euro allowance
im gonna get like 2 shirts lel
Eda would definitely adopt power
First April should be banned the other days are confusing enough
right?
It's already setting dark here and I woke up couple hours ago
Shotout to youtubers that upload normal videos on april 1st 🙏
Update: it's now dark
my face is once again blue
but i cannot find my eyeliner
so i sit in the floor in solitude
Poem drop?
Nevermind i return to dramatic poetry
although my makeup is on
the eyelash glue is gone
and so i sit without elf ears
🥲
We all grieve the absence of elf ears
I now have found them and im sewing up the skirt
Lollipop update too
Replaced the battery and attached it witrh black tape this time and then added a bow
looks good!
I love how koa is a constant in all my photos
i have gone back and forth on wearing jester for monthsbut im really glad im doing it tbh!
dog is silly 10/10
Wouldn't it be nice if Russian Federation as a part of reparations for the war gave the historical region of Ingria autonomy :3
And UN or NATO or whatever would guarantee fair democracy and stuff :3 Ingria as a country would be epic and based and cultured and would really took off quickly
Saint Petersburg would become a capital once more
also wow I gotta study late russian empire and early ussr gotta be the most bonkers period in russian history
like from february revolution till january next year there was russian republic? I didn't know that
it was definitely the largest country to ever exist less than a year
and until 1923 there was a lot of different shards of russian empire and a lot of power instability
like was there even a civil war in history in a nation that big
nevermind mongols had a lot of infighting
there also was apparently an english civil war but I think it didn't affect the rest of the empire but I'm not sure idk anything about british history
yo wikipedia has a neat separate emoji for capital punishment in lists
we should all together as humanity make a long series of shows for all of humanity's history
animated because actors don't look exactly as the historical figures
that's a lot of works for animators though like literally centuries
maybe it'll be possible if ai becomes very very good
or if we invent superheroes and infuse animators with powers of the flash
mongol empire was big for like half a century tho
ohhh it was before british empire was a thing nevermind then
mfw mongols put restrictions on jews 💀 everyone really dislike jews huh, although they didn't target jews specifically, they also targeted muslims, the wiki doesn't mention christianity tho, not sure if wiki just doesn't mention it or they just cared about muslims and jews for some reason
quite funny that both russian and british empires appeared in early 18th century and disappeared in early 20th century
Omg i can add kt to the bingo card
what bingo card
the theoretical bingo card of groups who discriminated against jews
that's a big bingo card
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_antisemitism the first record is 740 BCE 💀
This timeline of antisemitism chronicles events in the history of antisemitism, hostile actions or discrimination against Jews as members of a religious and/or ethnic group. It includes events in Jewish history and the history of antisemitic thought, actions which were undertaken in order to counter antisemitism or alleviate its effects, and eve...
also I don't understand how do some people recognize jewish people I never noticed any distinctive uniting features on like actors or acquaintances that people have told me are jewish
Its simple, either they know from like, you openly practicing your religion or they don't and they just believe it about you anyways because it turns out bigotry doesn't come from a smart place
makes sence
I only know that there's a caricature stereotype of jews having long noses but that's not true for all people that I've seen and that have either told me they are jewish or that someone else told me they are jewish
There is a jewish ethnicity whos members sometime share traits but thats only so useful
Does this server have VC?
No, this server’s too large; wouldn’t be manageable
Looks painful
I've decided my dream job is to design the successor for JAS 39 Gripen
Because I think sweden having it's own unique jets is very cool and awesome and based and I want in
day 2 over!! very very fun
Most interesting next gen fighter is probably FCAS. Theyre making swarming drones!
my dog is trying to become a cat
she's trying to purr when we cuddle but it comes out as a very strange noise
like she's choking
ah right I messed them up again
fcas looks like f22 but cuter
i really want more inverted wing next gen fighters
iirc the only reason its not widely implemented is because of materials being not good enough
also it's cool that potentially in my lifetime i could see 8th gen fighters that would be bonkers
wait fcas is 6 gen? so theyre kinda going from 4 straight to 6?
i wonder if rotating detonation engines can be used in jets or only rockets I dont know enough about them yet
how did the soviet union manage to fit so many programs in the late 80s so they all could fail and be cancelled because of soviet union falling apart
probably didnt expect it to fall apart
but so much
bla bla bla "no no my empire will last forever i swear mine totally will so we gotta do all these programs"
it didnt make that much stuff in the previous decades
im not a historian
it was a theory lmao
but anyway
going to bed now
had such a fun day! tomorrow is Red day
i willl be listening to taylor swift red taylors version
Desperation in global arms race and internally competing leaders in uncertain environment (like perestroika) trying to one up each other
That Red youve been working on?👀
I still struggle to grasp the concept of perestroika
Actually speaking of struggling
I really stink at thrift shopping and I need to learn how to do it going forwards
Damn that's good
Putting it simply, ussr economy was poor because state owns all the things. And there were corrupt officers pocketing stuff.
So president decided to implement perestroika. They allow private businesses to grow big, less govt ownership. More transparency etc.
It was very chaotic and end up soviet quitting being soviet
I see
And this president wasn't Gorbachev?
No idea how to spell his name
Going to bed my friends 🫡
I need this jacket,
I know its cobbled together
but I'd settle for the neck/hood clasp
old military gear is probably your best bet
I just said, out loud, “i should make sure i dont forget the feather collar! it’s important”
GUESS WHAT I IMMEDIATELY DID 😭
i went back and got it though so we good

hi!

Ughhhh okay maybe I should buy overpriced vintage on depop 
I bought this cute looking shirt that was advertised as corporate goth (so office friendly.) only for it to be cropped I'm

nice!!
high-waisted pants? 
I'm thinking that too. I'll look into it but I still feel like selling off this shirt 🤪
I'm slepi
No you not
hooray?
Hooray!
when will this false feeling of slepiness end?

Someone here has gotta explain why i ended up on Massachusetts instagram
I hate adults that are kinda "higher in social hierarchy" than me or something it's like every time I say anything or make any action they roll a dice and if it lands on 1 they get angry
Im not even joking this is like the 8th video 💀
i liked it bc its funny am i actually from Massachusetts is this my villian origin story
Maybe someone somehow told them you're from there
Can I make a joke about your username?
Ok
“Hello, God? It’s me, Margaret!”
ok
Sorry. Out of context movie reference
ok
banger book
Lmao yuh
AM I?????
Well you don't have to be from there for someone to tell someone you're from there
You may never know
Mfw just learned there was an explosion assassination yesterday just 1km from me
Some government agency people were opening a metal door a floor down just now
Apparently there's some government something behind the door like a storage maybe and it got stuck or something idk
And they had a very big circular saw very awesome saw but it's soo loud and the burnt metal stinks so bad
This is what should be in games instead of the usual long chainsaw
That one cuts wood this one cuts metal
Today it was supposed to be sign language class
I found it on internet apparently it's a gasoline powered angle grinder
My portuguese teacher didnt come to school
The paraplegic guy she called to help her show us sign language came to school for nothing
Thats terrible
Stay safe
I don't really go outside so unless there's a huge explosion in a nearby apartment I'm gonna be alright
I wonder how much tnt equivalent is needed to completely go through a 1m thick wall of concrete with rebar
Do you actually have 1m thick walls
If you're referring to us, we aren't americans 
Anyway, 1m is like, 10 times the thickness of brick walls so those infants must be built different
I checked and I was mistaken, only 70cm
That's inbetween apartments tho the ones between rooms are built later and they're only like 30cm
The ones at my school were 1m not here I guess
I'm trying to find anything on how much explosive force is needed to penetrate 70cm of reinforced concrete and apparently a bunker buster configuration of the anti tank system panzerfaust 3 can only penetrate 24cm 
It can penetrate 70cm of armor so why aren't tanks made of concrete instead?
Then again these walls were built in 1840 iirc so probably the concrete was weaker then and it probably became weaker over time
Are they solid concrete or do they have like, a breezeway?
this is 500g tnt
I'm not exactly sure but they don't sound hollow if I know on them very hard
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214914722002148 here's a cool paper on embedded tests of up to 200g tnt
ugh
why are you getting me on watch lists by asking so many questions
here's 350mm RC walls vs a 64kg TNT https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/516763813790482464/1092436573263499264/image.png?width=824&height=575
Honestly, given the propensity of engineers to want to blow stuff up and the interest of defense to build sufficient defenses from explosions I was expecting to find a much more well collected list of things
like a table in an engineering handbook: "If your enemy is using m shells build walls t thick"
so probably twice the thickness would be 130 kg
But also it's probably not just a simple progression
Like 150 kg probably to sufficiently destroy 700mm
That's more than I expected tbh
I mean there's also a difference between "Destroy" and "Sufficiently damage to [kill everyone inside/knock the building down]
But also I realized that maybe it's not reinforced concrete and now I'm trying to find out from what they built houses in 1840s I mean like this specific house
At least it's easier to look for that stuff when you live in saint petersburg because most houses are very documented because various important people lived here and various famous architects build the houses
that actually would explain why the walls are a 70cm thick
thems some thick walls to be making out of poured concrete
Maybe they're brick walls or like very very well pressed together wood walls or something
Cinderblocks is very very soft ngl
but yeah, that building in the pictures is so destroyed that I can't sufficiently express it in words in this server, 64kg is probably overkill even if they were double the thickness
it only looks like it wasn't destroyed because it didn't have any weight in/on it
The explosion was very close to the wall tho
aye, but its still a Huge amount of TNT
Anyone within close proximity would be demolished by debris like half of the concrete is just gone in the pic
what's this about?
I was too distracted researching things to really process it
There was an explosion assassination yesterday in my city around 1km from me
"Pro-Putin propagandist blown up in cafe explosion after being 'given model of himself packed with TNT'"
Geezums
There isn't footage of the explosion happening except from outside
It might be a little too late for you, but if I can offer some general sage advice: Don't go looking for those videos, they'll mess you up good n proper
The internet was a wild place in the late aughts
Well I'm only looking at the local news telegram channel they probably won't upload like gore and stuff
Oh wow the uhh I forgot the word the person accused was already arrested
I've obtained a 0.5L bottle of sriracha
I've finally found information about the walls of this house
It is in fact brick
Brick should be easier to blow up than reinforced concrete probably
Also fun facts about the house I live in that I found while searching for what are it's walls: the person that it was rebuilt for was a stabskapitän and had a street in this city named after him and had 6 kids from a ballerina who was a student of Didelot
Where do you go to find that
So Didelot to me is the teacher of the lover of the first owner of the house I live in
Well first I just googled the address of my house and there's like an article or two about it and it says when it was built for who etc and then I googled the person who it was built for the stabskapitän and there is a wikipedia article well not about him but about his family and that it's a landmark building I got it from the same place where I got the walls material from I found a site that has not all but many buildings in saint petersburg registered and it lists legal things about them like carrying wall material and landmark status and when it was built etc
Ahh nice
And the house first was built in 1779 but in 1840 it was completely rebuilt so it's kinda the theseus ship problem
Like is it the same house if all the parts were replaced
My cells are constantly being replaced. I am ship of theseus
Mechanized infantry sounds so cool but it's a lie they're not mechanized they just have vehicles so sad mechanized infantry sounds like they are all in cool huge exoskeletons
Read that visual novel i told you for your version of mechanized infantry 
I ship of Theseus and Asterius
Good ship
im going to go make a grill cheese sandwich to mourn the lost of bread in 2 days
Passover is a wonderful time for melodramatics
@fluid sorrel We should prolly move in here
It's getting way off topic for Hades 2 heh
Good luck with the stream! I peep in the self-promotion channel occasionally and I'll keep an eye out for yours
me too
Do you know what caused it? Or did you just feel like it was time for a break
I have an idea, but its pretty personaly so I'll just go with I felt like I should
well
part of it was Insomnia
that much I'll say
I made hashbrowns and they didntr really work but it was tasty
A proper sleep schedule is so nice.. i've shrugged at the concept for a long time
Did me wonders
mhmm I love hashbrowns
I've had Insomnia for pretty much my whole life to the point I ended up nocturnal, which I find easier
I do prefer night time as well, it's just that I cannot
Also insomnia is.. not something easily handled afaik
But I hope you find the help you need to get through it, if possible
Oh it sucks
came a point where I was having at least 1 all nighter a month
the novelty wore off quickly
Oh man, that's rough..
yeah
Longest I went without sleep... 58.5 hours
Oh man, I cannot imagine how that would feel like
Most I did was 40 but that was on purpose hah
honestly? it doesn't really feel like anything, which is strange
obviously you're tired
but
the 24 hours ish window is the worst
just feels like you want to be sick but you can't
like
There's no real way to describe it
just
drained
Yea, I get that, sluggish
its as if your body is running on instinct
I just get tingly after a while
Crazy how important sleep is
Gotta defrag the brain daily lol
Its been so long since my longest time up I don't remember it
I did a lot of 24 hour events and 4 day weekends with 4 hour naps every once in a while
Oh I remember everything
up until I would blackout anyway
yeah, but the last time stayed up well beyond the morning light was before 2012
I'm 34
the last time I stayed up well beyond morning light was two days ago
Morning light rn gonna try to fall asleep before it's well beyond it tho
Okay does anyone here have any tips on working slower at work
Maybe I should research whatever slow living is
force yourself to take breaks. do something like, after finishing x amount of tasks, i'll take a break for x amount of time. or just set an alarm that after like an hour or such you have to take a break.
Thanks!!
i use pomofocus which works pretty well for me!
it cycles between 25 minute intervals, 5 minute breaks, 25 minute interval, 15 minute break, repeat
Do we say « they had the most power » or « they had the more power » ? It’s for a school work
they had the most power
Thanks
np
You would use "more" if it was compared to something else. "They had more power than anyone else in the room."
yeah usually there isnt a "the" before more
so 'they had the most power' vs 'they had more power than'
oh yeah does anyone know any alternatives to linktree?
was gonna use it to organize my cosplay socials but turns it supports nfts 💀
maybe linkfire?
you could also make your own lil website with neocities or another more sophisticated website maker if you dont want the neocities url
just spit balling
hmmmm
might try squarespace or something
etiquette question: would you appreciate your roommate texting the apartment group text that there's a cool sunset goin' on outside or...
Just woke up, if I slept for two more hours I would sleep a whole round 24 hours
I would appreciate that yes
I had like five full dreams
One of them was me being either teleported or waking up from a coma or whatever in like 2040s or something
Don't really remember what was happening there I remember it was pretty cool and interesting and that the first thing I did is check for what new happened in my areas of interest in the time I wasn't there
totally i would
Does anyone know what's going on with Carrd?
Not sure if they're doing NFTs as well
oh yeah i could use carrd probably
idk might just cave and use linktree for the simplicity
gonnna see what i can do website wise with wix or squarespace since i wouldnt mind putting a portfolio there
When roasting coffee green beans, there's a phase called first crack. It is when the coffee's moisture inside the beans evaporate and build up pressure. Eventually cracking the outside layer from its build up and the beans exploded. This usually happens when the coffee reaches around 180 to 190C. Protocol for roaster is to get a whiff of the aroma in this phase to get a sense of development for the coffee beans.
Basically, I wanted to smell the beans and one of them exploded under my nose 
at 190C
If they're all in the apartment I'd say go for it
I personally use Carrd and I like it
It's very 2014 tumblr
NFT free https://rentry.co/
oh huh nice
The cool kids on twitter use it, if that persuades/dissuades you
I'm too lazy to switch over from carrd
as someone who hates twitter it is conflicting
Fluffy when I'm back from my work I need to share a coffee experience that I had with you
Ayyy sure
squarespace seems nice enough so far tbh
perhaps the sponserships were right
ugh its expensive though i feel like it was free at one point
at least a very basic site
hey all. I got an invite to this server after a friend showed me there were mods made so blind players could play. I've been enjoying the game so far (only 4 hours in) and find it very challenging but exciting. Thanks Super Giant Games for creating Hades with such good sound design. It really does show
how do I get the alpha player role? Do I provide screenshots from when I bought the game?
for Hades
i dont think that exists
Sigma player role when
i think psi is the most aesthetic greek letter
Lambda fans rise up
Mfw I'm not allowed to have even blunt weapons by federal law
I love my sriracha bottle it's so big
based
i like the fancy e i forgot the name
i would greatly appreciate that
Walk around with an axe. If police ask you, say youre reenacting raskolnikov for a study 
I ended up charging my team lead with a $24AU coffee yesterday.
I thought the 24 next to the coffee blend was the blend batch number.
It was a small coffee.
ah
I can see why it's 24 AUD
gesha is one of the most expensive variety out there
I had no idea 🥲
I'll look into it then
$71AU?!
but generally, personally, 24 AUD is not too expensive
😳
Tbh that's the kind of price I'm expecting for the average cup of coffee in the 2030s
lmao
so here's why it's expensive. Putting aside the gesha variety itself, the processing is what makes it even higher. Anaerobic process, you put the coffee cherry in a barrel of water, put yeast, close it up, and let it ferment. idk about thermoshock, haven't seen any processor that use that. Problem being, even if they're the same farm and seeds, fermentation would instead degrade the green coffee beans.
so you're looking around... 10-15% waste from that process
I think an axe can't actually be categorized as a weapon
Because cold weapons have to have various conditions under which they are cold weapons
For knives it's like over 9 cm length thickness under something like 6 mm iirc etc
yes, there are variety of process that essentially ferment the beans. The most common ones are Washed (which is not so fermented but also the cheapest), Honey (partial fermentation), and Natural.
Anaerobic jargon are relatively new and in booming
Mfw there isn't a word for быт in english how am I supposed to describe something used in day to day life with one word
was it worth it though
explain it in long convluted sentences and ill see if i can think of anything
So some of the conditions for something to be categorized as a cold weapon are that it either cannot be used in everyday life or has some parts that sufficiently obstruct it's use in everyday life
'Household' maybe
yes
Did you get to taste some
Well it's like a part of social and physical activities or life or a person like housekeeping or basic necessities like eating it's like things that are normal and needed for living
commonplace, household
Commonplace is probably closest
I roasted one the other day 
it was....
nerve wrecking
Worth the price?
yes
But like buying a cow isn't commonplace but is быт
Do you have an opposite word
No
And also for an example an aristocrat has a lesser degree of быт present in life rather than a peasant
Oh I have an idea
Perhaps in some way an opposite to быт can be anything industrial
Like office work is not быт but field work at your own property is not
like.. rural??
Chores 
bucolic is a fun word people should use bucolic more
More like, private
Urban people still have быт even they never ever go outside for the city
Also anything you don't do yourself or not for yourself and people you live with cannot be быт
bucolic /bjuːˈkɒlɪk/ adjective relating to the pleasant aspects of the countryside and country life.
That is cool
it is right!
Is 'mundane' close enough
Well, one word isn't enough to describe it i guess.
"Everyday life of common folk"
Well again, if a helicopter out of nowhere crashed on your barn and you are fixing it that's not mundane but still быт
And going to work if you don't work for yourself is mundane but not быт
In most cases of use it is probably close tho
It seems the word is used to contrast social classes
Can't wait to live alone and feel safe and confident about existing
An aristocrat with lots of servants would have a miniscule amount of быт in life if at all
While a peasant's life is almost completely быт
So kinda yeah
Then again, a servant of said aristocrat if living in the house of said aristocrat would also have a very small amount of быт
Because the things you do not for yourself are not быт
Its an interesting concept for sure
Tfw my patriotism is high but my country existed in history for a year a century ago
😔
Oh maybe my blend was honey fermented then
Hmmmm
haha with how much cleaning and preparation we did it’s hard to forget
Happy passover!
i am very tired and have a lot of work to do sadly! gonna have sedar small and outside too for covid safety reasons so there wasn't much cleaning or preparing this year
thanks though! happy passover to you too :)
I just got back home, but I slept through most of the seder lol
Got up just in time to eat though
Lmao fair
Why are you talking to yourself
no no, thats me in purple smh
not the same
red/pink is a better color anyway
salmon colored
ah man i just realized i have to bring my own snacks to the coffee shop now :(( usually id get carrot cake or a brownie or cookie or something but. yknow.
favorite building styles go!
personally for me i like tudor and victorian revival :3
Guess it's time to... pass over them

I just woke up
Whatever the gargoyle style is
Um Queenslander house style. Federation houses maybe
The more crazy the better
And of course traditional Filipino style housing
gothic?
Okay gothic x2
I'm just gonna make this clear. Honey process doesn't mean they doused the green coffee beans in honey. Instead, they pull out the green coffee bean out of its cherry but keep the mucilage on the green coffee beans. The term honey process used is because the mucilage looks like honey 
Lmfaooo well let's just say that I know about mead and went off the assumption from there.
boop
beep
Eep!

Glad we had people there
Very fun
I am now allowed to be melodramtic
I WILL NEVER HAVE BREAD AGAIN IN MY LIFE
why?
PASSOVER
i don't know much about it. you eat a lot of bread during it?
for 8 DAYS i am DENIED the leavened bread and shall ONLY eat the flat MATZAH of my ancestors
no the opposite
no bread :((
Its not quite flat bread
More just
Cracker? Kinda?
Ill get a picture soon
also i love maroons double o so much so kinda worth
Roti good
you are mocking me smh my h eda d
head
fluffy i need ideas of snacks to go with coffee cause usually id get a muffin or cake or a cookie and yknow
This flat bread seems thicker than usual
The flat bread I usually buy is the one that is about 1 mm thick
well tbh "flat bread" encompases sooo many types of bread that it's easy to have sth different where you live
True
I also may be mistranslating flat bread
Like is it лаваш or лепëшки who knows
even лаваш has variations
I mean both have many many many variants
like, кавказский лаваш is much thicker and it's still called лаваш in russian
anything that's not too oily should be fine
лаваш there's like armenian one which I regularly eat and there's the way thicker one I'm not sure what it's called
Although maybe it's not just the armenian one that's thin but idk everywhere it was always named armenian
Square
👍
Not georgian? Caucasian would be very wide term wouldn't it
like there's georgia armenia ossetia adygea from cultural regions in caucasus I remember off the top of my head
I've never encountered lavash called caucasian
A culture try not to have fasting in some form challenge(impossible)
we have an actual day of fasting too
no food on yom kippur bc we sucked so much we gotta make it up to god
is matzah good? it looks pretty tasty :0
In russia there are like 4 different lents in the orthodox christianity but despite I think like 60% of the population considering themself belonging to christianity the amount of the people that are religious enough to change their eating habits for some time in the year is way way smaller
im really hungry rn dont mind me hehe
Is it dry btw
its good but gets old real fast
ah
(does not speak russian)
Хлебцы is bread in diminutive
Popular in some groups of people
It is flat crisp dry bread basically
ah
They're usually pretty pressed together too like I mean uhh
also how does one convince their friends to read macbeth through badly with them
damn it sorry we're cursed now
Dense was is it the word
if m*cb3th was on twitter they would censor his name
i want everyone to think about this
he would be cancelled
matzah not super dense i think
Life advice from al capone
Not all хлебцы is dense there are like a million types of them
huh
The rye ones are always the best ngl
idk you tell me. i'm not russian, i just saw there's some лаваш called caucasian lavash when i was looking for lavash in web search, and it was much much thicker than usual lavash
Well when I lived in caucasus in the shops the different types of lavash were called lavash and lavash xd to differentiate between them you just say can I have the thick one or can I have the thin one or you just point to it
yeah, also it should be mentioned that something called after an ethnicity/nationality/place doesn't necessarily mean it's called the same way by said people or in other places
In the chain stores like the brand ones the big ones the thin one is armenian lavash and the thick one is not sold there usually usually only the private bakeries or the small stores that buy from private bakeries sell them
wtf custom domains are actually pretty cheap
i could get sapphicsirens.com for 12$ a year
highkey might do it since im working on my website
The armenian lavash is most likely not called armenian in armenia too the names of food by nationality of origin only appear when that food appears outside that region
i will make it pretty later 🙏
Damn that's cheap
google domains baby
nobody steal that or i will add another s to the end and be vaugely annoyed
I will definitely make a website for myself one day but thankfully there's no rush to register it before someone else does because I always can make up different cool words that never existed before
Snake saying it be like
Ssssssapppppphhhhicssssirenssss
my insta has two s's for this reaspon
The fact that the ph in english is not universally replaced by f annoys me greatly like what is the reason to use two letters for the same sound there is a specific letter for
And instead of ph being used for it's normal purpose in english it's normal purpose is instead fulfilled by pkh
What if I want to make the sound пкх what am I supposed to write then, p'k'kh?
btw
.gay is a valid domain
i found that very funny
sapphicsirens.gay
gay.gay
i have the humor of a 4 year old
yes
also also something that pisses me off
why is em dash not on my keyboard
i love em dash 3 smh
everytime i want to use it in google docs i have to go into special characters and search for it
Press windows key + period
It's in there somewhere
I worry about ë it may disappear from keyboards
still annoying
i would like button
how can i write in these condiitons
autohotkey and english international for the win
You could probably tie it to some key
i've set up the weird czech letters to letter combos
why
no I mean why do you need them
because i live in CZ :)
and work for a CZ company
so do you not have CZ keyboard?
and would like to maybe learn to speak... but hard ;_;
i don't want to have to switch between three layouts
i use ENG INTL + БГР already
easier to set up shortcuts that work on ENG INTL
how does one set it uo
you'd need a script/macro program
