Yes, you’re right. This is mostly a joke based on the OP meme. It’s not so serious.

Slightly off topic, but im in school for massage therapy, and just took my midterm exam which involves giving massage to classmates while the teacher watches. During practice, we check in with questions like “is the pressure okay?” And the response is either “its great” “it’s too much” or “I’d like more pressure”. During the exam, I overheard other students saying “I’d like more pressure” and I couldn’t help thinking to myself - unless someone is hurting you and you need them to lighten up, the only thing you should be saying right now while the proctor is grading is “that’s perfect pressure!” Like c’mon now, do your peers a solid and say it’s good if it’s good, worry about the feedback details during practice time.

A little before that, i think? Maybe since The Crusades?

Hi, im an insufferable cannabis and science nerd, chiming in:

Your reaction to edibles is based on the amount of cytochrome p450 enzyme that you have in your liver. When you combust cannabis, the thc is converted to delta9thc which is what gets you high. It’s why you cook weed before you eat it. When you eat weed and process it through your liver, it then converts to hydroxy11thc, by means of enzymes, and you digest it, which is why it takes longer to feel high from edibles and why it feels different from smoking.

Everyone has different levels of enzyme. Some people will not get high from edibles. Some people will get high from 5mg. I eat about 300mg before I can feel anything other than sleepy. I drank a 1000mg “canna-lean” syrup once, that’s the highest I’ve ever been, it was fun, but I didn’t lose my faculties.

I’m not saying tolerance doesn’t play a part, but there are other factors. Also if you’re primarily vaping, THATS what you should take a break from. Our cannabinoid receptors did not evolve alongside such highly concentrated thc products, they aren’t used to getting slammed with 85%+ thc, it’s used to like 10-12% found naturally in landrace strains. You’re system is burned out. The biggest scam in the legal industry is the way they market “30% thc!” as a good thing. The big number sells more weed, so that’s all the businesses care about, but cannabinoids and terpenes and INDIVIDUAL BODY CHEMISTRY have way more to do with how you’re gonna feel that high. I prefer a 13-17% thc content that is balanced with thcv, cbg, etc, but the market doesn’t care about providing you a good product, they just want your money.

Anyway, that was a whole lot of unsolicited information, here’s a source about the enzyme ⬇️ have a great day, stay lifted ♡

That’s how I feel about astrology. A horoscope is just a prompt for self reflection. But it’s fun when something feels woo woo or predictive or relatable because… its fun, idk. Its spooOoOoOoKy, it’s fun, it’s cute. Star charts are a skill you have to learn, it’s a hobby, it makes your brain work.

Yeah, I already deleted my account, I’m not gonna make a new one just cuz they’re “distancing” themselves, tf that even mean, they already did the bad thing.

The law in my state defines ageism as discriminating against people over forty.

Fun fact! I complained at a job once because I was up for promotion and instead they hired a 22 year old with no experience vs my 11 years experience in the field and my boss accused me, a 35 year old, of ageism against this 22 year old person.

Funner fact! It wasn’t actually ageism on my part but sexism on their part, because I happen to be a 35 year old woman and they chose to hire a 22 year old boy to be my boss. Then they asked me to train him. Then they fired me.

It was very fun to read, but I never would have looked it up. Thank you!

Great suggestions from others about the coconut milk. I think your idea to add citrus is great. I just want to chime in because I have made acidifide milk in a pinch when I didn’t have buttermilk by putting a tablespoon of vinegar in a cup of milk, so that might work in the coconut milk to achieve the buttermilk effect. You might want the citrus for flavor, I’m just posing an alternative.

Have fun and good luck!

This has nothing to do with the original concept/internet meme of “girl dinner”, this is just salad and fries. Girl dinner is like… six olives and an entire sleeve of crackers with peanut butter directly out of the jar. Girl dinner is three slices of cheddar cheese, and an entire bag of baby carrots with hummus. If you have the emotional capacity to cook fries and mix a salad, that is not girl dinner, thats just dinner. This is capitalism using buzzwords without understanding what they’re saying and I’m irrationally annoyed by this one in particular because I fucking love Girl Dinner.

That is all. Hope your next meal is delicious and fulfilling xoxo

You might need a new therapist, which is okay. I haven’t been to therapy in over a decade, but when I used to go, I used to do things like this, and my therapist would interrupt and say “it sounds like you’re deflecting, do you think there’s a reason for that?” and try to get me to go in a different direction.

Just some unsolicited advice, have a good day xo

Hot take: I want us all to be assigned chromosomes at birth for medical reasons, and then just have it not be a thing that gets talked about outside of medical situations. I read somewhere (and I’m saying this without a source for now) that as we advance genetic science, it’s turning out that a much larger percentage of people are intersex, or at least some variation of chromosomes other than xx or xy. So like, get that test at birth and then have your chromosomes as a part of your medical file so a Dr knows how to treat your body. Like blood type. And then, trans-ness is such a small percentage of people that most xx’s will still want to be little girls and most xy’s will still want to be little boys, but the pressure to fit in a box will start to fade, and the idea that there even is a binary will just go away, because its already not true. No more “its a boy, it’s a girl” bullshit, just “we had a healthy baby! They will develop into a kind and honest person one day, because we will raise them that way. We will be happy if they are an Olympic figure skater, or an archeologist, or a janitor, as long as they are happy and safe!”

Connecticut is the best tho

That’s what I was thinking, these sentences could just be combined. “I played with my friend’s toy in their colon.”

This thread so far has been about extra judicial killing, but can vigilantism encompass less drastic actions? Do you think it is fair to say that the reaction on Reddit/Lemmy every time “the rapist Brock Allen Turner” is mentioned falls under the third type of vigilantism, in the sense that he recieved a light consequence compared to the acts he was proved to have committed? Is the social backlash and the (imo deserved) chorus of “oh the rapist?” in response to his name a form of societal vigilantism?

I appreciate your thoughtful and nuanced post in this volatile thread. Your last sentence immediately made me think of that guy that raped a girl behind a dumpster and then got let off because a judge thought consequences might damage his future. I don’t think anyone should kill him, but I’m happy he doesn’t get any peace on the internet, and i wish he was in jail.

Oh i hate that, do you want me to come over and beat him up? Wanna come have a sleep over? We can bake cookies and watch tv and you can meet my cats.

xoxo I’m not kidding ♡

I don’t think he’s funny and I actually think he’s kind of a weenie and I don’t like him very much as a person, but I actively watched his return episode and now I let his show run in the background to boost viewership.

Don’t really know how else to participate in the revolution, I’m pretty useless, but if I can contribute to trump having a tempertantrum, that’s wonderful !

I do not have the means to donate to things that I care about. Most weeks, the difference between overdrafting my bank account or not is literally a few cents. I donate the $3.10 every time the pop up shows up on Wikipedia. I’m sure there are other organizations that need the money more, but I think Wikipedia is SO important, and so far has remained earnest in their behavior. Proud of you for donating what you could, glad I could help a little bit too.

Be well, friend

I’m actually so excited for the apocalypse because all the people that want to get raptured will go away and everyone left behind can finally start fixing the planet and being kind to one and other
