Yeah but I've got ideas I have more to contribute with like my biggest project on fedi is !DIYMentalHealth@lemmy.dbzer0.com which is an effort to create a slightly more structured mental health support space that gives people specific tools and education to get by when they can't afford a professional.

The biggest thing holding me back right now is that I think the space would really benefit from a bot. I tend to be kind of flaky and lose focus and I have all the posts written but often forget to actually post them once a week. I think if I could do that plus an automatic weekly check in thread I might be able to kickstart some better engagement.

I'm currently keeping people alive by force in the hopes that the blanket exists somewhere and they'll find it someday. It would take a lot of weight off my soul to add more certainty to that statement.

I tried to make one literally called not-Amazon but pretty much everybody had an opinion on how I was doing it wrong and I just didn't have enough emotional bandwidth to deal with it. Would be happy to be a secondary mod if somebody else has the energy to deal with those people.

My cat has an automatic feeder and still tries to dig me out of my blankets sometimes. One time I was trying to sleep and she kept rubbing on my face so I pulled my blankets over my head and wrapped them around with a tiny breathing hole for my mouth and nose. So she started shoving her paw in the hole to dig me out. So for those that think the cat just wants food, she HAD food. She just also wanted to rub her face all over my face.

my patented charcuterie lunch box:

  • jerky
  • cubed Colby Jack cheese
  • mixed nuts (I like cashews and almonds but you could probably do something cheaper like peanuts)
  • dried fruit (I like cranberries and apricots but again you might find something else is cheaper)
  • ritz or similar store brand crackers stored separately from the other items.

I buy the ingredients in bulk and pack them in small Tupperwares. they're great to graze with at work.

I liked the bit in the 3001 space Odyssey (the one where they unfreeze Frank and his lack of a foreskin gets him ghosted)

"Nowadays everyone's either a deist or a theist. The theists believe there's at least one god and the deists believe there's less than or exactly one god."

OK it was what I expected.

TLDR; the "horse" part of this wasn't really the problem other than that it's easier to purchase an unhinged quantity at a veterinary supply store. If he was reconstituting to the proper strength (being sober would have helped with that) the electrolytes themselves wouldn't have been an issue (and honestly are actually beneficial when imbibing).

I figured it had to be, iirc from reading veterinary metabolic panel normal ranges most of us placental mammals have roughly the same electrolyte balances. Afaik it goes back to whether you have a common ancestor only before or also after leaving the ocean and that your balance is reflective of the ocean's balance at that time.

It sounds like there were a few trace minerals that might have built up if he'd kept drinking it in it's intended strength chronically but the core issue was him drinking essentially a straight salt slurry.

Yeah I was gonna mention the menstrual cup thing. The fact that they perceive the vagina as a purely receptive sleeve also suggests that they've rarely if ever had a woman orgasm on their dick. Hubs reports varying perceptibility between different episodes but that the muscular contraction is often robust.

ooc how normal is it to allow a child / younger sibling to win a game? My parents always said you shouldn't do that because that's not how the real world works then my siblings told me I was dumb for not being able to win and that this is why no one wanted to play with me (I was the youngest). When I grew up and heard stories of people letting their kid or little sibling win a game I thought that was wild but I don't actually know what the true incidence is. It's one of those things where I wonder if I'm oversensitive or if that was truly abnormal. My older sister also used to tell me I was a psychopath a lot while growing up but I'm starting to think she might have been projecting.

I'm making a spreadsheet to decide where to move and I have wages for my field stacked against CoL index from several different sources each, plus which places will accept my license with minimal paperwork. Next I'm thinking average temperature / humidity, but I'm interested in stuff like favorable union laws and such but don't know what those numbers are called or which ones are actually trustworthy / useful.

Pretty sure this is about to start some shit, so my apologies to the mods; it's for science!

bastardcircus: Ok, God, | am fucking wheezing, I got trained to work with mice today since I'll need them for sore experiments and the guy who trained me was like, “Yeah ok so if there’s a day where you just absolutely cannot get your mice to cooperate you can always do this™ and picks up this cone-shaped bag and just put the mouse face-first into it and shows it to me and I lose my shit because deadass it was a piping-bag of mouse. Like, the whole mouse was pressed into this cone, fur and ears and feet all pressed up against the plastic, tail sticking up absurdly out of the top of the thing. It was so unimaginably fucking funny but like the mouse was perfectly ok with it, there’s a hole for air at the bottom so she could breathe and all but it was genuinely the most absurd thing I have witnessed in months
