Satan is true ruler of earth @haughty mist
Nice
Well olympian Satan is Prometheus
I guess
Lucifer - the one who brings light
And Prometheus brought light
And both were kicked out by sky daddy
By the most popular version
detective
Lucifer from God's shows
for your enjoyment
okay so I found 2 Lodge cast iron skillets rusted and abandoned
I got them, scruff and what not
now for the seasoning. i love little projects like this
where does one find abandoned cast iron skillets
Abandoned michelin star kitchen?
yes 
but seriously, i cleaned out the storage of my apartment. i think they belong to the previous tenant
then congrats on the free cast iron skillets that's a nice find
thank you! second coat of seasoning done, just waiting for them to cooldown
fried eggs for breakfast!
i love crispy fried eggs
got some hoagie from the store today, also
it does make me a bit happy
tfw your usual spot is taken 
Windows 11 continues to be the worst ui I've ever worked on
They keep removing staple features and making things just slightly annoying
hello
Sad. Spot for what?
Seat
but the gear in notepad spins when you click on it
worth imo
yeah but seat for what 
general election of course
To sit 
hey does anyone have the crying laughing emote with the bugging out eyes
if i'm remembering it correctly
?
really close. but like the kind in the clean cartoon style of the other discord emotes. very much ty tho
Hi there! I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to find out the current status of the Hades Vinyl. I've tried to email support to get a status update and the last email states the shipping window as March 2022. I haven't seen any new info posted via twitter so I'm not sure where else to inquire
horrifying
i have this one 
yes! that's it thank you my friend
so would you mind if i used it? it's from a private server it says
When was the last time you reached out to them?
March 8th
humber best emotion
You could probably send a follow-up at this point then—if you don't hear back after a week or so, definitely swing by again
Yeah, I just feel bad about pestering them
It's been long enough that it shouldn't be a bother ^.^
i didnt make it and its in 2 different servers im in, i have no idea who actually did make it but i think you can go ahead and use it
anone have some tips for a full clearf
i cant get hades
i get him to half hp on his 2nd form and die
#h1-discussion, and the best thing you can do is keep trying, and maybe trying out different builds than whatever you're currently using
But if you're gonna ask for builds then #h1-builds-and-combat
ah yes, tweezers for the whole family
is this something server appropriate?
weezer
ooooh ok thank you everyone
If I see 4 things on a blue background my brain goes insane
ok i remember that album now, i get the joke. everything's coming back to me lmao.
that was a good album
okay so remember when I asked if it was worth joining tiktok for the sake of some illustrator/photoshop tutorials
pinterest is now recommending some good tiktok tutorials so I can safely dodge the weirdo posts on tiktok 💖
hashtag love wins
i think it can also be avoided by just really being careful on who you follow and not following large amounts of people. i do it on tumblr at twitter and i have pretty calm experiences both places generally even though like you can have insane times
I've heard tiktok algo is a lot more pushy on videos from people you don't follow. Not to mention all the security issues the app has in the first place
which one is the channel where i can talk about will smith slapping chris rock?
Anyone watch the show “Lost”?
here
I feel sorry for people who called that battery or assault
like. Go get some life experience and come back
can someone explain to me why this is such big news?? cnn was reporting on it today as “breaking news” right after the latest on the ukraine war. (???)
At least in the US it absolutely is battery and assault (according to the letter of the law anyways)

it is as simple as celebrities doing a big oopsie on camera
it's news because they are celebrities
i personally find it amusing
in a sea of bad news, a little celebrity oopsie is okay to be called "news", at least imo
Does that mean anyone who gets in a physical fight can charge the other for assault
oh it’s a great video so far
It's trans visibility day
wait but ive been able to see trans people this whole time
Likewise.
dont give me that look 
damn bro my trial of invisibility has ended?
yes sir, report to the nearest store for your visibility ink
(or mam, or anyone in between)
i like sir personally
tbh calling myself trans has always been complicated because im enby so brain doesnt really.. register
i like it tbh but i also? dont?
I think trans is just everything not cis
yeah it's really an umbrella term
I'm sure I'm trans but I'm unsure what kind
for me personally i've found more freedom is just doing the general nonbinary as a label than worrying about specifics, since i've found my identify very watery and fluid and it's changed a lot as i've grown older. i also am in a place in life where i don't really care how people perceive me so avoiding a specific label helps me with that.
so i just vibe
yeah i can relate but some tiny part of my brain keeps going like “do.. you want a label..”
there's def nothing wrong with a label
it's something that really works for some label, especially binary trans people
tbh i havent been able to find a different label
and i literally have a giant non binary flag behind me (this thing is massive)
aw heck yeah
a few times now when I've talked to someone at a store or food place, I'm not sure if they're saying "ma'am" or "man", and that always give me serotonin
YES same it's my favorite
generally when people see me they read me as a lesbian but when they talk to me they read me as a gay man and it's very funny
For me I know I'm very not masc, anything past that is a big lol idk
I'm convinced that school is trying to prevent people from becoming smart
Honestly in a lot of cases it's the government meddling that is preventing schools from actually teaching relevent stuff
also resources
Yeah, by meddling i mean in both law wise, monetary/resource wise
oh yeah right
I go to waldord school and it's better than governmental school but it gets less waldorf every grade
And there's almost no informatics
But it would be thousand times better if there was no russian language and literature classes they're by the worst teacher she gives more homework than all other teachers combined
How can you even ruin literature so bad
And teachers are mostly conservative
And old
Except german language teacher
And eurythmics
Hey there! I wanted to see if anyone who plays Bastion wanted to join in on an r/place project. Wasn't sure which mod to contact so putting it here. Let me know if I can post a bit about it in #bastion!
Speaking of tdov
Currently undergoing tests to see how my health is before they put me on testosterone
We're also figuring out birth control stuff, which is interesting
oh hell yeah congrats! what method were you thinking for t?
Gel, not sure what dosage. I don't feel comfortable with administering shots at home. Might talk about the pellet with my doctor, too, but I think it might have more testosterone than what I'm comfortable with
There's so many methods now! There's even an underarm roll-on, from what I've heard
yeah i think the gel is like the really new common one, i think more insurance are covering it now, most insurances used to only cover injections
my friend just got on the gel too
Gonna need to figure out which insurance I get once I get a proper job 🤪
May I offer you a picture of my cat in this exciting time?
an baby
it'sa babeh
synchronized loafing
best kind of sport
used the pot i usually use to boil fish for my cat, only this time i made instant noodles for myself. whole time my cat's like "not cool, dude"
lucky cat to get boiled fish
refuses to eat kibbles or wetfood. we named him Posh
haha spoiled boy
le posh
what lovely friends we have here
Mine said "I can do that too!"
such talent!
Hehe, today's heardle is a good one :)
I'm excited about changing my name legally
.
Hey everyone me and a friend are trying to get people to create something in r/place for hades.
We are trying to create the skull in the top right I made a post about it on the hadesgame subreddit
Haven’t played any other super giant games but it is good to see they at least have something.
There isn’t that many simple things to do pixel art of in hades so it is kinda difficult but it is worth a shot.
I've seen Bouldy mentioned... I think that may be easier to make
Doing my best to protect it
Yeah I feel like bouldy is hard to recognize in pixel art. We are considering switching to Charon's Obol
Charon's Obol could work
bastion fans vs poland
who will win
That's not Poland that's Bulgaria
these flags are the worst
Or help us protect our tiny squirt
I can try to help with that too
We are drawing Charon’s Obol at 60, 325. There is a post on the sub about it.
I was personally helping to keep Lea and Basil alive :p






bnnuy
nice turtle
elden ring players would say "likely dog"
Well, not to a rabbit
Actually, seeing the fanbase, yes to a rabbit
it does look like a rabbit tho
it is clearly a frog
Frog doesn't have fur though
Why wouldn't it have fur?
Okay actually imagining furry frog triggers my fear of it 
Nah not really
I'm just scared of frogs in general 
so you guys wanna work on something for /r/place before its too late?
ive been thinking of dusa
i think i couldn't care less
Same
i think it's pretty over
dark soul looking ass
hey if someone says they fear something let's not post it
me alive
that's always good
why


R I P The voice of mrs potatohead! she died today
let us occupy this channel, just the two of us
why not?
wtf
i'm curious if i can get banned for that
Probably not
if you're following the rules as stated in #readme-first no
"Some language may be more offensive to others than it is to you; if you are called on your language, take the feedback."
so basically it means we can speak any language we want, right?
this means slurs, insulting someone, being toxic, NOT using a different language like Russian
physics and chemistry memes are so funny for no reason
i ended up on that side of tik tok again
Science memes are the best
Yes
anyone wanna help me with drawing the handsome man from my pfp in r/place
who is it
There's a few of us in the subreddit trying to draw the skull from the steam Icon at (395, 1946)
r/Place is live, lets make some hades artwork
Ayooo I’m down
Not going well I presume?
Sad indeed
I want to be Link
But unmale
Or Opal from legend of korra
Does anybody else have a character who you see as your "perfect self"?
Envy is indeed a whole gender by themselves
uh lemme think of one
ingo from pokemon is a character that i get gender envy from lol
i guess his brother too since theyre twins
hello 😄
If I didn't enjoy wearing oversized jackets and being fluffy as much as I do I would probably be trying to look more like Envy lmao
That's your pfp right?
No my pfp is his brother, Emmet
Yeah dw abt it they aren't even like story important
Honestly is there a single rogue-like game where keyboard and mouse is better?
Slay the Spire? :P I believe it's playable with Gamepad but I probably wouldn't recommend
ik this belongs in #video-games but just a quick answer: Darkest Dungeon, FTL, Risk of Rain 2, Slay the Spire, XCOM
honestly, katara from ATLA
i admire her a lot
well theres a lot of characters i get gender envy from yeah
for example
she
ah oop im on mobile the gif isnt saved
she
My gender envy would probably be Alice Cullen from the Twilight movie
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/878887868892844072/960392380744347678/IMG_1610.jpg
Always liked how her hair looks, and how it would look weird on me 
Haven't watched twilight but she's very pretty now one of my gender envies as well
Garment details for any fellow hunters, as best as I can recall them! Ivory flared-sleeve cardigan is by Anthropologie, Knitted & Knotted, & was called the Limehouse cardigan. Alice's waistcoat is indeed blue, not grey, but it's the right brand, H&M, look out for the satiny collar and 7 fiddly buttons. The frilly white shirt I have is by Scarlet...
this youtuber is nb and did an alice cullen video recently!
Oooh
kinda late but I'd say Python from FE15
FE2 Python doesn't count because that's not a character
hail friends! any r/place news?
i halped a bit with the ol' transistor but i also watched it disappear 😦
it might be possible to coordinate stuff with the pride banners but idk how to communicate with them, i just wanna see something supergiant on it and i've yet to find one again xD
me and my friends made a tiny smiley face in the blue corner and thats enough r/place for me
just like a tin of cheese or cheese on something?
cheese
sometimes you just want some cheese
cheese
cheese
This is Dante slander that he will not accept
baby
Dante looks disappointed yet expected the slander
It's only second day of school after holidays and I already have a bad headache
That's how school works
School be like:
Trade offer
I receive: almost all your time and your mental and physical health
You receive: tons of absolutely useless knowledge, a handful of useful knowledge, stupid teachers that don't even try to teach you, expect you to treat them as royalty, don't treat you like a human being and say "you're already an adult" every day since first grade
sounds good to me
god i am not looking forward to college planning 
apparently wanting to get into a prestigious university means devoting every second of your life to school
not wrong, but that doesn't end with school. its getting you ready for when you have to deal with people like that at work (clients, customers bosses)
but hey stanford itll look good on resume’s
the nice thing about planning to go to stanford is if i dont get into stanford i can get into a bunch of very nice schools
Id prefer the orange cat ngl because at least the little guy isn’t shy
And he actually does something
coming in very late to just say i wouldn't say it's right to say what you learn in high school isn't important, since a lot of it is. a lot of it is critical thinking and logic solving skills which are very, very important. just a combination of how they're taught and the massive workload makes it frustrating enough to make them feel useless. which is not going to be some life changing thing to read but i think, personally, that if i could have viewed the things i learned as less of "this is useless and i'll never use it" and more as life "can i take anything from this" it would have been a less miserable experience, but there are some teachers who make that really hard and teach things badly enough that it seems impossible to find anything to learn at all at all, so it's kind of rough all around.
Tell that to employers :/
?
honestly i agree but it kind of stops at
a point
i dont think knowing the square root of 781040 will help me with critical thinking 
“I graduated in high school but didn’t take college, but I’m extremely good at critical thinking and I’ve been praised by my past jobs, i have an IQ of 140 too, here’s a bunch of test results in that range”
“But you didn’t go to college so screw you lmao”
Basically the world today
oh yeah definitely
half of the reason i want to get into stanford or nyu or colombia is simply because it opens up a l o t of doors for me
probably going to major in law or bio or something
that's very true, high school does try to push you as far as they can, which gets to a point where you're not gaining much from what's happening
mhm
You could be Einstein and learn a new language from watching tv but if you don’t have a degree, good bye job interview
a lot of places need grad degrees too
Oh great
That’s even more screwed
though it depends on your field
It’s just “have money” by this point
Many people literally die in debt at the age of like 80
like software engineers don't need master's
ive had so much conflict on majors/what tf i want to do recently
because on one hand screw america and that is a lot of school to do
I’ve heard from many people about the horrors of college debt
and on the other i think id really enjoy and being able to actually make some change would be nice
if you do instate + community college you can shave a lot off of that debt, + financial aid + scholarships
still not a fun time but it can be managable
yeah
if i dont end up majoring in law i will probably move to Switzerland after college
specifically the french speaking areas because im learning french lmao
ima go play league and ask league players for dating advice


I'll make an album
music or imgur?
If you can make songs out of your convo with league people, I'd give you an applause

Community college doesn’t look as impressive on a cv as a private one
Which is where the dilemma lies at
do it all on a kazoo
After a few rounds, I am now confident that the album would 100% be NSFW

I need to gather more though, as of right now they are mostly what you expected.
it's true, but you can still do a lot with it. unless you're going into a hypercompetitive field, it'll probably be alright. what's more likely going to matter more is what kind of internships and extracurriculars and references you get during undergrad. and even do that's not something that has to be figured out the moment you get there.
just know what risk you're getting into
Graduate unemployment, or educated unemployment, is unemployment among people with an academic degree.
not unemployment, but under-employment. that page says law majors are 55% underemployed
that could mean 'flipping burgers'
networking and attending events and volunteering is quite important
another day without using sin cos or tan 🙏
In math classes I spend 0% time thinking and 100% time writing down things that are written on the blackboard
another day of not having lube for my bike suspension 😢
as a math major, i like to treat math like a puzzle. i like puzzles so it works for me.
i understand some people might not find it amusing in the same way.
Every time I do maths I want to just stand up and leave the class or my desk
I just treat it as inhumane psychological torture
haha, ig
once you get advanced enough in math, it's ... poetic (no really, some ideas are brilliant and elegant)
but if you are stuck doing algebra of calculations it's mind numbing for sure
also im in a research group waiting for people. if no one shows up in 15 mins im legally allowed to leave right?
I’m too busy trying to pull my hair out to realise that
can i nerd out for a moment? one of the most interesting thing i learnt is ... how to count
For me math is fun but writing is not
like are there more positive numbers than positive even numbers?
No
Opposite for me
They're infinite
are there more numbers between 0 and 1 (including irrational numbers) than integers?
How
wait do you mean writing like writing stories or just writing in general
yes, there are an equal amount of positive and positive even numbers.
but there are more numbers between 0 and 1 than integers.
one infinity is literally larger than the other
isn't that nuts?
But infinity is infinite
How it can be larger
It can be faster or lighter maybe but larger?
ik, that's why its fascinating
There's probably a logical explanation for this
I've watched veritasium video the one with infinite hotel
yeah it's the same idea
if you want to fit numbers between 0 and 1 to each rooms labeled integers, you run out of rooms
But if we treat infinity as something that can be larger or smaller we need another infinity
Infinitier infinity
we do
there is a conjecture about the "size" of inifinity
if you solve it you would become instantly famous
My brain treats infinity as something that expands infinitely so that's probably what I'd call faster infinity
we call it "countable" and "uncountable"
As in I’m having more fun just writing instead of trying to understand algebra and calculus
That would be fun
To each their own I guess
integers are "countable", you have a 1, 2, 3, infinity etc. you can't list all of them but at least you have a system to "count" them
uncountable means that there is no way to "list" them. for example, it's impossible to list numbers between 0 and 1 and assign them first number, second, third, etc.
Because they can be infinitely small
And integers are like particles
They're whole
intuitively you are right
but here's catch, do you know fractions?
And between zero and one there's two halves three thirds four fours and so on
like 1/2, 3/4, 123/456, etc.
there are as many fractions as there are integers
and fractions can also get infinitely small :)
Maybe, I don't really know how everything is called in English
Yeah
the numbers like 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
the numbers like 1, 1/2, 1/3, ... 2, 2/3, 2/5, ... 12/15, 12/16, etc (all the fractions)
the two collections have the same amount of numbers in them
fractions are "countable"
Wait is there some special term for a list(line? strain?) of numbers that are squared?
i don't think so?
Like something of four is one squared plus two squared plus three squared plus four squared
Yes
Sum of squares of integers
All integers is just all integers
And numbers of numbers between zero and one is sum of squares of integers minus one
But 1/3 equals 0.(3), there are infinite 3s after the period
so is 3/3 = 1 or 3/3 = 0.999999999(infinite)
yes, those two numbers are equal, just different ways to represent the same thing :D
Hmmmm 5.(0) is more than 5 or no
also you made me look it up and apparently there is a wiki article on exactly this lol
i learn something everday
(i came across that problem from a certain scene where an apocalypse cultist is using it to prove the end is near)
no in a visual novel xD
oh <3
it was an interesting read as the said cultist character is well-read and good at rhetorics
1 * 0 = 0
2 * 0 = 0
1 * 0 = 2 * 0
then divide both sides by zero and
1 = 2??????
that sounds dangerously communist 
that sounds safely communist
I don't get it for some reason
its because in communism everyone has to be the same lol
everyone is equal, some more equal than others.
wanting everyone to be equal is a nice thought actually. just that countries that claim they are "communist" never actually get it right
most egalitarian societies are gasp in Europe?
karl marx would cringe at these communist countries
Oh, right
i havent. it's one of those dystopia stories i assume
I read it back in high school, was somewhat interesting
Actually, it's a utopian representation.
Depending on whom you ask.
just remove the protagnosits and we have utopia!
I mean, most dystopias are utopias that didn't work
Fahrenheit 451 is an example of that
The only feasible utopia is becoming machines.
clearly the takeaway is if those protags could just set aside their petty needs for individuality or self expression all would be ok!
Utopia that worked is Alice Adventures
I don't know how famous it's outside of Russia tho
And there's other planets and civilizations so humanity is prosperous and perfect communism but in contrast to less or more civilized aliens
Or utopias that didn't work and were only utopian for a small bunch of people like ww2
I can't believe that there is a utopia that "works" because if there were, it'd have a lot more study and discussion surrounding it from numerous specialists and savants, I'd imagine.
It really isn't focused at how good of a place earth has become it's more about fun adventures in space and not in space
Ah, that makes sense I suppose.
And all the physical work, production and all the stuff that requires low qualification is fully robotized so every human can focus on self improvement and simple resources are almost infinite so there's no currency
Like you can get ice cream just from a machine on the street
But not more than 5 per day because healthcare
Boredom is your next issue then, and with no change, chaos or competition, it gets spicy. Unless you drug everyone and distract them continuously.
Scientific research or something on other planets is what everyone are doing
But what if I just want to turn people into dinosaurs?
Then you research it and find someone who want to be a dinosaur
Good, I can research art, gummy bears and ancient civilisations.
And if someone is mentally ill well there's nothing they can't cure
Yeah, exactly
Antlantis exists in this world btw
It's, of course, aliens
🤦♂️
And Alisa found them in one book and then she also went to their home planet to return them home but uhh things happened
well what if someone has different health needs
lump
lump
lump
lump
birb
spring has come to northern hemisphere
lumps activated
i think utopias either work in space age, with ability of endless research and expansion (Star trek goes here as well)
or in very small communities, where literally everybody know each other
I'm feeling super blocked for some writing I have to do re a grant
Does anyone have a prompt for a short bit of writing I can do?
I can be anything
Then their health needs will be registered in the system, those machines recognize your dna anyway
The two most recent characters you've created (or two random characters) cross paths while walking in the woods. Except they had reason to believe that no one else would be in the woods that day.
"The silence grates on mine ears. Come, let us banter"
The priest, kneeling still beside the King upon his steed. "As you wish, your majesty. Then may this humble priest impose a question?"
The King nods "Have at it"
"What manner of King would you be? For what purpose have you claimed our land? Where will you lead us?"
that's it for writing prompt, but in my version what happens next is
||after exchanging ideals priest stabs the king||
A priest dies and goes to his version of heaven but also meets a head of how he thought heretic organization and everything is not exactly how perfect he thought it would be
Thanks!
No problem, I always have a huge amount of ideas and happy that they have a chance to be used
im never going to be able to choose a dog for service dog training THEYRE ALL TOO CUTE H E L P
ooh do you have any pictures of them?
i’m looking online rn i’ll get the screenshots i took!
here’s a couple of them
this is mocha
and then this big happy boy
i filtered it by bigger dogs (medium/large) and younger dogs (puppy/young)
im sure whichever i get is gonna be super helpful and also adorable
omg they're all adorable
out of the places i’ve looked at mocha and may are most interesting to me rn
though we’ll see in a couple of months when i actually have the funds to get them trained
or maybe i’ll fundraise really quickly who knows
Dogs :)
I have a shiba inu but that’s probably not good for service training
Seeing that they’re known to be proud and temperamental
And also are too small sometimes
aw!
i have a hound/pit mix but he’s missing a leg so not really great for service training. sadly he’d have to be separated from the service dog, at leas while its in training and everything
He’s “on break”
Which probably just means slacking off when Meg’s too busy preparing for you
And also he’s become a nice guy and likes Bouldy now
suffering? have you seen him? the guy is ribbed. Nothing says peak performance more than fit body!
He has to be fit otherwise bouldy rolling over him would hurt even more
Imagine a skeletal frame
And also he’s fit from pushing bouldy as well
teacher couldn't make it to class today, he had a flight to catch. Instead he uploaded a 95 minute video of the empty classroom to yuja
Amazing
Preparing for death on this trip of mine. Or so it feels like.
This genuinely sounds like something my English professor would do
how come this server has no vc channels
very very large server that would be very very difficult to moderate
as a vc channel anyway
Could you not limit the number of folks in the channels?
need someone to monitor for rule breaking 24/7 i guess. no problemo!
just got a tattoo of the hades logo, but i can’t post a picture of it :(
post it to a private discord or imgur
then copy link
i’m on mobile
np! and thats very nice
thank you, my artist said to me that i can pick something small for the extra space in this sleeve so i went with the hades logo
That's awesome
I want that and a Pochita tattoo
Looks good!
thanks guys 
the three cheers for sweet revenge tattoo 👀
Okay im hopping off hades and i need help deciding what to play next. AC: brotherhood, or slay the spire?
Those two are very different but ACB is one of the best games IMO. Also, 👉 #video-games
is the gun the last unlockable weapon
if so i have every unlock
unlockable weapon i mean
no where near max talents and whatnot
i think my favorite weapon is the spear tbh
getting a backstab from facing an enemy with the special feels so good
@slender harbor this section is the general non-video game section of the discord, you'd get more response in #h1-for-new-players or #h1-story-discussion :)
ah i didnt see those channels. ok.
is that muse tattoo above it as well
yes it is. upper arm is muse and green day, forearm is my chemical romance, i dont know how but they found me, and the brobecks
I love em, obviously the hades one is dope but the band ones are just too wicked. might copy your tattoo for my next one 👀
👀
I'm gonna get a tattoo someday
Something satanic and maybe some original symbolics if I start writing eventually
what do you do to distract yourself from feelings you don't want to feel?
serious or not so serious?
Watch meme videos
Or anime
serious answer : not processing your feelings is harmful
a bit of distraction can be okay though, as long as you do eventually take the time to process
I know but that's in long term and in the moment it hurts too much
ah, of course. worth noting, something that commonly happens is that a person learns that expressing emotions may be risky, so they just don't, because it seems safer that way. it forms a habit.
eventually it'll be hard for them to feel anything and lose the will to do anything. depression. this state is very hard to recover from.
lol im already kinda there. but on the bright side i scheduled a triage tomorrow.
kinda there too myself! hang in there comrade
I express minimum emotions since ten years old
What's a triage?
it's a screening. usually before therapy you need to do a screening
sleep and get a better mind set
unfortunately much easier said than done
It is
Can someone explain scientology to me please I don't understand how exactly it works and why it has such a negative effect
It's an actual genuine cult
elaborate pls I don't really know how a cult look
Basically a cult is psychological abuse but pretending to be a religion. I think this one also has the goal of scamming you out of your money
._. That's what Christianity is, at least in my country
And how I see most religions
Yo same
There’s no higher being out there or life goal except for money and pleasure
The former is the goal used to reach the latter
Be it from food, entertainment or whatever else, happiness and pleasure is my number 1 goal, because hedonism is a great ideology
Idk some forms of buddhism are maybe good I gotta learn more about it and there's satanism but that's already not really a religion probably
buddhism and satanism are more like philosophies
religion is about worship. philosophies are more like "way of life"
So I've met my mom's boyfriend
well, we can't really say that
I prefer just taking the "I don't know" stance. I have no idea if there's a higher being or not because there is no real way of confirming or denying it
is her husband fine with it?
They've divorced several years ago
Because he was cheating that's probably the main reason
But like literally a month ago she was telling him that she still loves him and never cheated on him

If I could get an achievement for meeting my mom's boyfriend and my dad's girlfriend(she exists too I saw pics of her) what would it be called like?
there is a joke online, or at least i seem to have heard it, where you ask a mom's boyrfriend or husband if they have met the other
Thermometer: shows I have a high temperature
My mom: you don't have a temperature the thermometer is wrong I know better because I'm a mother
that's literally what she said
Love at second strike
Imagine how funny it would be if parents divorced then married new people then divorced with the new people but then the new people marry to each other and kids stay the same
Parent circulation
@proud flicker I know this is an old discussion, but i wanted to add to it. It helps to think of this using set theory. Both are infinite sets but the positive integers set contains positive even integers set. So…
A = { 1,2,3,4,5…}
B = { 2,4,6,8…}
B c A. (B is a subset of A)
There are twice as much positive integers as there are positive even integers
yes, but ||A|| = ||B||
the number of members in A is the same as B
Yes
When comparing infinites it seems you can only really compare rates
In this case B goes to infinity at a faster rate than A
odd numbers are also infinite
so...
subtracting an infinite amount of numbers from an infinite amount of numbers can still leave you with an infinite amount of numbers
but one of those infinities is bigger than the others
pretty odd, huh?

I just had a dream
And
I can't remember almost anything
Except the color of lipstick I had
It was dark gray and just a little bit purplish
that is very specific
then again I had a dream where I was making a korean noodle shin ramyun
Exactly, and that's weird
maybe it's the key to the truth
now all I need is to find the right lock then
Find the lock for the key
The question for the answer
tired! but good. looking up soup recipes. how are you?
corn and potato chowder
i had a recipe awhile ago i really liked but i've lost it so i'm looking for it again
it was great, it was like 2 or 3 servers, and everything i'm finding is like 6 to 8 😵💫
i can only eat so much soup
i am a forklift certified individual who has lost their forklift license
i totally need to order a new one. sad
is it fun to drive a forklift because it looks pretty cool to do so
it's a lil tricky! once you begin to get into the swing of things, it does
that's very cool! i wish you luck in becoming recertified
hi 
hello
watched someone switch between 2 drastically different English accents and idek why I got so much whiplash when I can do the exact same thing
now I'm wondering if this is how others felt when I do it
as someone that was stuck with Southern American accent for 2 weeks after binged watching Preacher.... the whiplash was real 
Hello friends
Uh
I require someone to vent to
Trigger warnings will come to you in dms
hiii you can vent
to me!!
just make sure you preface your vent with the triggers so i know what's up
I don't understand how and why people who aren't pansexual or asexual divide attraction to other people by their gender
The same way that pan people like myself don't. It's not necessarily a conscious choice, it's a matter of what triggers the "oooh" portion of the brain
yeah that's....how it works
pretty sure people don't wake up one day and just decide they're going to more attracted to one or the other
I woke up one day and decided I wasn't going to be attracted to anyone. The day I was born.
That's not what I don't understand, I don't understand how male female non-binary someone else are perceived differently in some people's brain, I don't see any difference between them they're all just people
I can understand that lack of understanding, it is how many people see things though
I'm not the best person to explain it haha
Now that I've thought about I also don't see any difference between teacher and a student for example
Agh I just went out of the shower now my body doesn't want to work
I’m confused by your initial question/confusion. Are you confused at how, for example, gay people are only attracted to their own gender? Or something else?
maybe it doesn’t have an explanation and it just is - same way that people who don’t have a preference don’t have one. but I feel that this line of questioning is not necessarily a good one
Cake analogy!
Some people like chocolate cake, can't stand vanilla
Some people are the opposite
Some like both, to varying degrees
And some don't want either
We use this one a lot to explain asexuality, I figure it works well enough for this?
Opinions on true love?
Probably yes
Then with cake analogy I'll explain my confusion: for me there's only one cake
I can understand that. I'm in the position where I see all of the different cakes and like them equally (which some people call omni instead of pan but I like being a pan)
i'd say yes in the that you can find someone very deeply to love and that's like, the person you really want to be with for the rest of your life. or people, if that's your thing. but like you're really willing to put in the effort to make a relationship to work. like my grandparents were together for over 50 years before my granddad passed and they were very happy together. but i don't think it works like in the movie kind of way where you meet for three seconds and decide "yes this is The One." i think you'd really have to know someone before being a true love kind of thing.
idk women pretty
its not that i really prefer vanilla cake but i just dont really think about chocolate cake yknow
like i dont see vanilla cake and consciously decide “ah yes i love vanilla and will now eat it”
I used to think I was bi before finding out im ace
I saw someone say well 0 attraction times 2 is still 0 so idk??? And thats when it clicked lmao
Fyi aces can still have preferences on the gender they are romantically attracted to
hahaha it‘s always this pipeline, isn‘t it
ive been considering if im aro for a bit actually but i think a relationship just sounds too stressful ngl
i am that example people use to devalue aromanticism haha
the “but maybe you just dont want a relationship :((((“
You could be demi-romantic if you develop romantic attraction only later on in a relationship, but still valid
labels aren't set in stone, really. maybe you feel like aro now, and later you're like no, that's not quite right. things are mutable; many people change their labels many times over their life. and it doesn't make the label you had before less valid, or anyone else's label less valid. i've known multiple aro and/or ace people who later decided those labels weren't right for them, for a variety of reasons. but it doesn't mean their time using those labels didn't have meaning or that other people using those labels just haven't "found the right person." and maybe you'll find aro is actually the right label. how you define yourself is a personal choice and can change sometimes and sometimes it doesn't and if anyone takes issue with it, well, that's really a them problem.
ok that's long tl;dr: you can change or not change your identity to fit with what feels right at any time, that doesn't affect the validity of anyone else's identity, just vibe
I think I haven't experienced sexual attraction to anybody, only like aesthetic attraction(I'm not sure what it's called) and sometimes very rarely romantic attraction mostly to personality though
Vibe is the meaning of life imo
(aesthetic attraction is right i think)
This why I really like the queer label
Just incredibly fluid and chaotic
yeah same. it's just what am i? don't worry about it i'm just vibing
you know that is very eloquently put
well thank you!
That's aegosexual label wise.
And that's part of the asexual spectrum
uh I'm pretty sure you're misusing terms here on accident
I'd put the actual explanation for what aegosexual means but its nsfw so 
Aegosexual as a tldr is aesthestic attraction
Nope, you're right, I've almist always assosiated aesthestic attraction to it
So i don't actually know the correct term in retrospect
I had to look things up again, and yeah my memory turns out to be garbage lol
This why I really like the queer label
Just incredibly fluid and chaotic
u get it!! i just say queer bc it comes with an inherent understanding of not cis. and i know a lot of people dont like the word bc of its use as a slur but... realistically what hasnt been used as a slur against us? but at the end of the day i realized i didnt care to apply multiple labels to myself to fit in or put my feelings into neat boxes so now i just use queer
Queer be a very good encompassing label.
The main reason i like to use labels is it kinda conceptualises the goals of where I want to end up if that makes any sense.
Forgive my ignorance but does queer carry a negative connotation?
it has been in the past, and sometimes currently, used as a slur. though it varies; it was gay and certain other words when i was growing up and i really rarely heard queer but for a friend of mine queer was really commonly used versus other terms.
Yes, however it's being/been reclaimed by the same community the word was used as a slur for
yeah but a lot of people that dont like it argue that its use as a slur is too harmful and they dont feel comfortable reclaiming it, which is like. if thats what you personally feel, then fine. but some people try to insist it cant be reclaimed at all. you dont get to tell other lgbt+ people that they cant reclaim and use queer if thats what they identify with just bc youre personally uncomfortable with it lmao you dont get to tell others that the people using queer as a slur are more correct in their usage of the word than the people who reclaim it
say, qq can someone help me with a color
what's this one? can't tell if its more blue or purple
#5d5294
looks more purple to me
Same
WAIT ME TOO
I was talking to my bi friend in uni that I'm probably bi and she went "nah you're likely ace" and I looked that up and discovered that sexual attraction is a Physical Thing and not just "they have nice abs, I want that too"
I thought I was pan a month ago
Then had almost same thing except I looked up myself
the "yeah I've liked more than one gender" to "wait it's not just thinking they're cool?!" pipeline
this is how deep I was: it took me till my mid 20s and reading it up online to realize that Take Me to Church isn't singing about dating someone in a satanic cult
i went on the acearo to pan/bi pipeline
the 2 way street

I laughed a bit too much at this
a fine addition to my collection
my thoughts exactly lmaooo
he's just preparing for the scribe's trials

I've slept for 12 hours and I still want to sleep, why
Cats sleep all day
I want to be a cat
i'll write a complaint to my local supermarket for the lack of personality labeling
Now I want to know how mine personality type chicken tastes like
Although
I don't eat chicken
So apple?
Hey would anyone be willing to take a survey? Its for a school project and completely confidential. Any responses will be a big help
Heres the link
bad recipe everyone knows the best chickens are capricorns
I made taro milk tea this afternoon
It's great
Sweet a bit savory
I should've prob add some salt
Cause damn it was so sweet my head hurts 
Hello :D
Salt? In tea? That's with milk?
this is beyond my understanding
yea it might sound weird to the uninitiated. Salt does the best job in terms of balancing flavours. You dilute the salt and only use just a few drops, so you don't really use a whole lot.
I do this to coffee if I brew it bad the coffee sucks
Wdym salt just makes sweetness more contrast
In my experience
A lot of people salt porridge but it's already sweet and it just tastes weird
Because salt with something sweet tastes weird
But with porridge it's just bad like why
You gotta pass the trial of fire for some things.
yep
Including Tea Milk.
I didn't pass good God.
Yet I can stomach half a liter of Jagermeister easily.
It might work, might not, I'm gonna try tho 
Good luck cause you totally need it
Salt on watermelon makes it sweeter
I cook every other day and balancing the flavors is the fun part (never did measure seasonings, habit lol)
Like curry, add a bunch of umami(soy sauce, fish sauce, etc). Too salty, add sugar. Sometimes feel adventurous, maybe add a bit of lemon. Sometimes coconut milk. Cocoa powder good too
Seasoning triangle. salt, sweet, acid
Even sweet foods/drinks need to keep this in mind
"Siri, how do you write without writing"
-Me, wanting to write, but also not
I can't barely translate my thoughts into words, let alone words to speech ;-;
Mom asked me the inevitable question again; would you get married by the end of this year? 
Context: man in his early 30s, not dating anyone currently
"I'm married to myself, mom" 
i’m only 24 and my mom be asking me the same question
That’s normal
That’s not normal
Not "would you get married by the end of this year" but many forms of "have you found yourself a fiance" and "how many kids will you have" this kinda stuff
RIP
Majority of people here are very conservative and want everyone to have a lot of kids
Tell anyone over 30 "I'll never marry" and they'll say "everyone does and so will you, you'll find a good husband/wife and have a lot of kids"
And government supports that because more people means more brainless worker material that'll hate anything tv says to hate and love anything tv says to love
At my place, kids usually got asked that kind of questions by adults as well but it’s usually just trolling tbh
At your place, they sound serious 
Dear brain,
I'm glad you listened to my wish and woke me up earlier.
I am wondering why it has to be 4 AM.
Why?
Sincerely, me 
you only got one shot
my response was good but it could have been better lul
I'm 0.000928725702 nautical miles but I feel very tall
hi... ehm.... is this the right channel to send lots of cat pics?
yep
I mean, lots
I have 40 cats
oh wait I cant upload cat pics here... sad
I will upload all of them to a drive and share it
link embeds work, you can upload elsewhere and link here. but yeah if you have a lot of pics thats not feasible bc the bot usually catches links posted in rapid succession
speaking of cats https://twitter.com/memesiwish/status/1515275718212538368
i'd recommend uploading that to an album somewhere. 40 cats is.... a bit much, even if the bot didn't catch it.
yeah ofc, I will upload it on a folder and then just send the link of the folder
oh yeah that'd work
aww cuties
loving the volfred icon
thank u thank u
i originally had miss bertrude but discord just didn't do her justice 😔
Just finished Pyre a few minutes ago and I’ll be honest, still tearing up a bit
Also what timing huh?
yaaay pyre is cool!
It’s SO cool
That is genuinely one of the only games I’ve gotten fired up about other than idk
Bastion with all idols in Jawsons Bog lmao
Also good morning EST fellas
Our three-year-old found jelly beans in his Easter basket this morning, and exclaimed, "I don't want my house to go away, soooo, let's not eat those beans in this basket."
We eventually worked out that he'd seen a commercial recently where a girl ate some jelly beans and her entire house exploded around her into giant fruit. 😅
HAHA aww that’s really adorable ☺️
I hope he was able to enjoy his jellybeans without his house exploding hehe
Isn’t that interesting too though? How our minds just pick stuff like that up and internalize it at that age? Fascinating
Oh yeah! It's amazing what he'll remember and bring up again weeks or months later.
He still requests "Shovel" sometimes (his name for Build That Wall from the Bastion soundtrack)
Yeah, wow that's amazing
I see he's taken sides early HAHA
That's really cool though, wow
I hope y'all have had a happy easter and just a good day in general :)
You, too, whatever you celebrate! 💕
Thank you! It's been great celebrating sleep in till way too late day lmaooo
My favorite holiday!
meanwhile i slept in late because i spent all day helping prepare for passover im so tired guys
Just ordered some Onitsuka Tiger shoes because I barely have any shoes for summer
Ough, sounds busy. Hope you can get some good rest soon :)
NIIIIICE
We convinced the child to try a jelly bean, he was legit a bit nervous, poor kid 😅
He's quite happy now, though - keeps telling us that "beans don't make your house disappear, you know" in a very knowledgeable way
Yes thank you for that reassurance, dear one 💕
aww that's cute
Gosh I hope so
some of those flavors are definitely unnatural
puke flavored 🤮
I guess it's cyclical so they make them but I'd rather not get into the specifics of puke flavored jellybeans...
i was thinking more of one like chocolate and licorice...
lets pretend
I didn't say anything
and stick to those...
:)
I'm with you on that one
my tolerance for sweet stuff is pretty low lmao
also, sorry for the brief interruption but does anyone here by chance have a pretty decent knowledge of C#?
I gotchu, python is a good place to start honestly
Any reason you have C# as your target?
One of my job perspectives is programmist
a practitioner of programancy?!
PROGRAMANCERS UNITE
Also, that’s SICK
Go for it dawg
i had c# class a decade ago and havent used it since
Although I’d say python isnt necessarily easy (although it’s probably the simplest syntax to follow)
It’s got it’s own quirks so if you can manage those you can honestly pick up C# or whatever language you want pretty easily imo
Aw man, how come?
just not very into programming, is all
I gotchu, I gotchu
Also, if you get stuck with anything you’re working on I’d be willing to help out. I’m not like the expert or anything by any means but I might be able to help here and there if need be
how do you all deal with intrusive thoughts ?
i like to blast music when i have them
and focus real hard on the elements of the song playing
that also helps since i make music too lol
do you have your own methods?
talk to myself about what I'm doing
"hooptidoo let's see, yep that's some coffee beans. Let's weight them out. 13g, that's cool. 15 is nice but 13g is the redacted. AAAND grind."
some people would stare at me weird
sleep
reminders that they're intrusive and not a reflection of you things like shouting slurs or hurting animals, this aren't something you would actually do. or if like "if this thought/actions happens, then this will happen, then this..." when it starts you say "that hasn't happened yet so i don't need to worry about it."
The human mind's a huge weapon, crazy isn't it
All other weapons are just consequences of human mind
It was mostly about my own mortality death related
ahhh
the classic mortality thought
everyone had it don't worry
honestly I'm more scared about others' deaths than mine
i never experienced a close one's death before and it scares me from time to time as well
about my own mortality, i sometimes feel like life is pointless when i think about the fact that i will die one day and wont feel/know anything
man i should become a religious person
I don't care about my or other's deaths
I don't wanna say too much since I'm not an expert or anything (take this with a ton of salt) but have you thought about why you have those thoughts?
also would recommend seeing a counselor or something if its really messing with you
also yes, they certainly aren't the most accurate reflection of you. More of a reflection of things in the past that you internalized for whatever reason. If it's too much to think about, this is not a bad idea
is that because you think there is an afterlife which makes "death" unimportant or you actually do not care? lol
No like genuinely don't care, idk why
do obsessive thoughts count as intrusive?
i got u
do you want to be obsessed?
i kinda don't but kinda am
then i would count it intrusive for your case
mostly i have to forcefully stuff some counterthoughts, like about how to prevent something bad
i also have an obsession so i may have some clue about your experience and it can get really unhealthy
or about how i'll get to local psychiatrist and get a new recipe for escitalopramum
and other minor and major compulsions
probably one day i should write a diary about whole mess in my head so any specialist would be able to understand better
also they say it helps
that sounds like a good idea
unless this thing will persuade me that it'll have some terrible consequences for somebody i care for
have you tried meditating?
not really
