This is the craziest rhetoric I’ve ever heard. People love hearing interests from a fanatics perspective. If you have an almost unhealthy interest in something, test the waters. See how much the recipient is interested in hearing you talk about this, and if they are, go all out. I’ve learned so many interesting and niche things I never would have by engaging with people with hyper fixated interests.
The smell of weed has always been abhorrent to me. A true blooded alcoholic reeks like shit too, but most casual drinkers, or even alcoholics that care enough to still have good hygiene, don’t smell nearly as bad to me.
I think it gets better, but it is a bit of a slow burn. It’s just a comedy that’s a satire on religion and systemic oppression, that uses an angel and a devil being friends to convey that.
I enjoyed it, but I wasn’t glued to the screen. I think it’s absolutey worth the watch, but it did take an episode or two to gain my interest.
With all the hormones and whatnot inside. Dopamine, adrenaline, melatonin, whatever. Also, there’s this Hunter S. Thompson bit on the… pineal gland?...
We don’t actually promote higher levels of dopamine as far as I know. Dopamine agonists work by mimicing what dopamine does to your nervous system. It doesn’t actually produce any more. Also you can be given dopamine intravenously. It is mostly used to raise blood pressure in newborns. But you are right. For other uses, its smarter to mimic it, because of how short it lasts.
We do, however, promote a higher concentration of serotonin with SSRIs. We do that by blocking natural inhibitors that destroy serotonin after being used. This way we can use them more before they die off.
Hey there! It’s your favorite (and only) /c/internetfuneral moderator here. I just wanted to share my current thoughts about this community as a whole and get some steam off while I’m at it. All my comments can be summarized in this comment I’ve made in a deleted posts:...
Maybe it’s a boss fight, or the conclusion of an amazing cutscene. Maybe it’s the moment a game ‘clicked’ with you, or the moment you and the game combined for a moment you’ll never forget.
Life is Strange for a good couple of things. Soundtrack, story, visuals. Most of all, it has a really impactful scene towards the end that ultimately makes you really revaluate what the story is about and how you feel towards it.
I’m using a stock Samsung Galaxy 8 phone right now (with Android 10) and I disabled the YouTube app. I was basically sick of its s***. Since then, I never sign in to the app/site, and so may aspects of using the site are much better now....
Base YouTube is a cancer experience. I used vanced back when it existed. The second they shut down, I stopped using mobile YouTube and just used it on Firefox PC with ad block. When I heard reVanced was a thing, I downloaded it and it’s essentially just like vanced.
I will never use YouTube without adblock unless they either change their monetization system, or ad system.
The Great Eye that Fills the Sky, Unblinking, Visible from all of Time and Space, (you know the one) hasn’t even glanced my direction in the last couple of eons. It used to look directly at me at least once a foremoon, but slowly I’ve drawn the attention of The Eye less and less. I don’t know, it always unnerved me to be...
My son loves the adrenaline rush of getting scared, particularly with jump scares, however, I have a lot of difficulty finding a game or show which is appropriate for him. He is prone to nightmares, and more adult-oriented “kid horror” is too much (Poppy’s Playtime, Cartoon Cat?) And others like Siren Head. His peers...
Spoilers for THE major turning point in Shadowheart's storyI was with Shadowheart and Nightsong, and I failed my persuasion roll to get her to spare Nightsong. When that happened, I told her that I would fight her before I let her kill the Nightsong. She flew in to a rage and was ready to throw down with me, and then suddenly I...
Yeah, seems like it bugged. I had to do the same, and we fought and he body was there. There’s no cutscene or anything when you kill a companion, but they shouldnt just disappear.
I want to make it entirely clear that I agree with you. I just want to bring this up for insight and perhaps understanding.
Reddit has a pretty bad incel problem. Incels are very similar to online Nazis. Out in the open they try to speak in code and find other incels, and in their own communities they get nasty and start being vile. Now this isn’t always the case, and incels are much more brazen than nazis, but the premise is similar.
Once is want to find other incels. And they do so by using dog whistles. One of which is ‘females’. Of course this is a common word and its ridiculous to just ban anyone using this word. This mod went way overboard. But if you’ve been around enough of these ‘quiet’ toxic groups and had to mod, you might have acted rash as well.
I wouldnt mind the first kind if they didnt have a playbook to defute every single one of your points in a manipulative way. I really don’t give a shit what you support as long as it doesn’t directly involve hate or oppression, and as long as you don’t try to shove it down others throats or try to insult people with opposing views every chance you get.
I imagine a lot of people over im hexbear are chill. I hope so at least. However, every encounter ive had with them, feels like the conservatives over on reddit. They try to ‘own’ you with loaded talking points, and bad faith arguements.
The cop said that their policy is to not serve uniformed military, not the bakery. The bakery claims it has nothing to do with being a uniformed officer or military personal, they just dont allow firearms in the building.
