Slugma has room to evolve and grow and also has lava powers. Alakazam has gotten to the end of its road and has no room for growth, and also doesn’t have a lava body.

Don’t help Glut, just help Spaw get revenge.

It works like holy water, if at least 51% of a glob of jam is Satan jam, the whole glob becomes Satan jam

Wow this is awesome thank you, throwing this shitty measuring tool in the trash

2 miles btw, phew

Got me on Google maps making measuring tools out of notebook paper because it won’t give me “as the crow flies” numbers from my house to the nearest golf courses

looking for a new pope

they laugh and say “it’s a good papabile sir”

Personally the moment someone starts pouring gasoline on me, my instinct is that they will in fact “do it” and I’m gonna run for my life.

I know everyone is different and some people will make pretty morbid jokes and empty threats but I think that “while covered in flammable liquids” is not the time to escalate.

Black bean burger with (sorry to be a millennial) avocado. With a crispy patty (from all the flour and the oil heavy pan fry, I know it’s not good for me anymore at this point, I don’t care) is a thing I regularly crave.

Lmao harm reduction candidate

Throwing my #1 Dad mug in the garbage because I won’t drink out of a lie.

Hopefully the next time they think about murdering someone they’ll pause to consider this.

Sorry if it was unclear, but I was trying to express that with the edit, not criticizing this ban at all.

It was an extremely sus thread.

EDIT: like I didn’t know all of those details, but the thread he posted right before all of the comm bans was super weird and concerning

EDIT: I think I accidentally cropped it but there’s one more that I think precipitated it:

IIRC, he was asking about getting personal information from people in the thread from this one.

I’m so bad at parries but it feels so good when I manage to get one. Expedition counterattack rules.

Democrats will do literally anything other than demand that the genocide end.

Are you making a baseless criticism of a man who has been tortured for most of his childhood and his entire adult life?

What if he hates the people who tortured him, then what, he deserves it?

I don’t really want to do a line by line conversation but I don’t really feel like my comment is being read in good faith here. It feels like you’re ascribing stances to me that I didn’t take including ones that I explicitly rejected in my original comment because I know that what I’m saying is somewhat heterodox on this site and I wanted to ensure that I didn’t get misread.

Yeah commuting does suck, I also miss having more free time at home because sometimes it’s slow at work and instead of just browsing hexbear I can do housework when I’m at home and then I don’t have to do that during personal hours.

Personally, even outside of work, the friends that I’m most likely to interact with, not counting family members, are people I met through work.

My work isn’t hard but I have to pay attention to way too many different programs to make taking my laptop on its own to a third location viable as an every day thing.

Plus coffee shops aren’t free and parks expose you to the weather. I’m not sure what etc even would be here.

And neither of those locations actually position you to socialize with peers.

Also I in my role, while I’m not dealing with anyone’s SSN or anything I frequently enough with people’s personal data that it would be inappropriate to let just whoever at the coffee shop view over my shoulder.

Home or the office are the only real options.

As someone who works in an office and isn’t in charge of anyone, I’ll say that I strongly disagree with the idea that there are no legitimate reasons to prefer being in office.

I get cabin fever pretty badly if I don’t have a reason to get out. Finding motivation to do that can be difficult when I don’t actually have somewhere to be. I also do enjoy chatting to my coworkers. As an adult fostering friendships outside of work and family is incredibly difficult, and I imagine you know that?

Regardless I’d still work from home if permitted, due to COVID, but the idea that wanting to have a second location that you regularly spend time in is “dumb” is wrong I think.

To reiterate, I absolutely prefer work from home at this point, even though it’s undeniably worse for my mental well-being, due to the threat in office work poses to my physical well-being, but it’s absolutely a tradeoff.

Also, I just want to say I hope RTO kills Paradox because I’m still bitter that they killed off the Chronicles of Darkness TTRPGs.

Badass
