What's your radical opinion?
  • My cheat for getting the shrimp meat out is to pinch the tail. It just slides right out.

  • without saying how old you are, how old are you?
  • 🎵 This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny. Good guys bad guys and explosions, as far as the eye can see. 🎵

  • Do lesbians like boobs as much as straight guys?
  • Pansexual woman chiming in; boobs are distractingly wonderful!. I'm more of a butt girl, but always appreciate nice boobs 😅

    Being a dominatrix, might help though. Nipple clamps, biting them, teasing them; it all adds to my pleasure.

  • Autocorrect Rule
  • Women are not a bad thing and I was just wondering what you think of this. ... OK ... I'm a woman, so this is interesting 😅

  • Mandalorian
  • I've been opting out of every single one, but some companies are assholes and make you send it in through a written letter (Meta) or worse, automatically accept it if you've even just used the app/site/product after they send an email to you regarding changes. The fact that massive corporations also say all matters must be resolved in small claims court and with mandatory arbitration with the company's arbitrator is incredibly illegal sounding. Fuck you AT&T. They were the company who fought for revoking arbitration rights in contracts. The Supreme Court decided it was legal.

  • Chat is this real
  • I really hope a politician bans those "Class Action Waiver" and "Revoking Right to Arbitration" riders that are getting put into everyone's Term and Conditions contracts. We should have the right to band together if a corporation fucks us over and this is ridiculous.

  • He's very confused
  • If you're homeless or low income, there are programs through DHS that will send you a free phone and plan. It's not a great phone, but they still give people the ability to apply for jobs online, contact hospitals/case workers/ shelters, and to be safe in case of an emergency. I'm not sure if other states have it, but Michigan and Colorado do

  • COVID still 'very much with us' with 20% of tests positive in Europe, WHO warns
  • I'm immunocompromised and still mask indoors. I haven't been sick at all since 2020 and it's awesome! Between 40-60% of people have some form of permanent brain damage and 70-80% have long covid problems from Covid. The damage to the body compounds every time a person gest re-infected, so the numbers are terrifyingly high.

    I have a postmortem science degree and it required 4 years of pre-med/pathology. With all that and what we know about the virus, I am honestly not sure I'll stop wearing a mask indoors until we find a cure or better vaccine. I can't stand that politicians are trying to ban masks, essentially sacrificing the elderly, disabled, and ill. A government making medical decisions, creating an environment where a person can't mask up, regardless of if they have cancer and want to stay safe; or if they're severely sick with something else but need to pick up medication at a pharmacy... it's dark. It's fucked up

  • What's the oldest technology you continue using?
  • Yes, but the quality is so crappy now. The same model of machine I have from 2008, is being sold today, but it's rickety and not as powerful as it once was. Singer bought the sewing division in 2004 and kept the quality for a bit, but it plunged down in a few years.

  • What's the oldest technology you continue using?
  • They do, but they're pathetic compared to their older counterparts

  • Killing your kid with lockjaw to own the libs.
  • I think you're putting this in a different connotation on it than I do. It's hard to convey emotions in text... maybe I need more profanity... it's fine if they're taking themselves out, but it's just fucking devastating that these assholes are hurting their kids when said adults are safe and were vaccinated.

  • What's the oldest technology you continue using?
  • Sewing machines. I'm a professional cosplayer and sewing/embroidering is a big part of that. My newest machine is from 2008. After that, they started adding in all these different electronic features, that are garbage. The machines both break easily and are limited to the technology/software of that time. You want a machine that can sew through leather and silk with the same grace, get an older machine. If you want something newer, avoid electronics or anything with a touchscreen.

    My Husqvarna Viking Emerald 118 is so strong that when sewing corsets, my needle commonly punches through the thick ZipTies, that I use for boning, like they were butter. It's a beast of a machine. If she ever breaks, I'm going to find a used one.

  • Killing your kid with lockjaw to own the libs.
  • It just sucks that innocent children are hurt (or worse) in the process

  • Jimmy Carter Says He’s Hanging On to Vote for Kamala Harris
  • This makes me happy. Hopefully it'll encourage more people to help with his charity work too.

  • White man tells Black journalists his Black opponent is not Black
  • It's crazy that people keep saying she prosecuted thousands upon thousands of black individuals with Marijuana charges. I swear people don't know how to Google and find out that she oversaw 1900 cases, (which was a total for her AND those under her) but only 45 went to prison for it... and those were extreme cases. I've used the LetMeGoogleThatForYou site more than I'd like to admit.

  • Is this just how it’s gonna be till Election Day?
  • The scammers always have a field day with elections because so many people are too politically charged to do research. By LAW, every US campaign has to have the actual name of the person who's sending texts and if it doesn't, you know it's a scam. If you have T-Mobile, you can forward the text to 7726 (SPAM) and they'll shut it down. Never ever respond to these. Don't even say "STOP" because then they'll know it's a number connected to a real human and not a business... a human they can scam.

  • Do you think the world would have been a better place if there were no religions?
  • Oh, I know the electricity stops and we shut down like a dead battery but too many humans think that something might happen to the "soul", and use the excuse that energy can neither be created or destroyed, just transferred. They want to believe in the near death experiences, and have 100% proof that there's no reincarnation or ghosts or afterlife

  • Do you think the world would have been a better place if there were no religions?
  • I'm a mortician/postmortem scientist, who used to run the WSU Funeral History Museum. Based on my research, I don't think humans could exist without some type of religion/code/customs. As long as there has been death, even in ancient/prehistoric times, humans have been doing specific procedures, to say goodbye to their fallen loved ones.

    There's writings in almost every culture that teach us about what these civilizations believed, and some are beautiful, while others are kindof terrifying, but it all wrapped around people trying to cope with death.

    Even if we found out complete proof for what actually happens when you die and after death, some people are still going to prefer their religion's ideas because it brings them more peace. Death seems to be the clinch pin for all religions, and I honestly don't think we'd have religion, if we didn't understand the concept of death. People just want something to believe in.

    Now, the garbage parts of religion are created by people seeking power, money, and control, and as long as there's those who desire to conquer others, religion will be made up and used as a scapegoat, as to why certain people deserve power.

  • Let's Go [Rule]
  • There's one of these, up my street, that started as a MAGA themed store, then they moved to more being Trump worshiping type products, then they promoted 2020 campaign stuff, then Let's Go Brandon, and back to 2024 campaign stuff. I don't even think they even like or support him, but are capitalizing on how his followers act in a fan-club manner and buy up all the merchandise.

  • Compost
  • What you've said is true. In my forensics class, we learned that police can actually use plants to find dead bodies, because you can see a noticeable oval of healthier plant growth. Older cemeteries flourish. There's a few stories from the Neolithic Era about planting crops on the deceased, both humans and animals, but it's mostly been erased from history. It wouldn't surprise me if it's happened during Famines or situations like the dust bowl where civilizations weren't rotating crops and depleted the soil.

  • I miss when she was this tiny!

    When I got her, she was so small that I had to cut a sock for her to wear as a sweater because nothing fit. She's an Aussalier; half mini Australian Shepherd and half King Charles Cavalier; and the most loving dog.

    I'm a cosplayer, so I make costumes for my service dog too!

    I love hand-making cosplays because it encompasses textile arts, armor crafting, 3D printing, painting, wig styling, jewelry making, etc. (ShelbyEileen)

    I’m ShelbyEileenCosplay and am really excited to see that textile arts are included in this instance! I’ve been sewing for 12 years and armor crafting for 10, and competing in cosplay contests for 10. It’s the most challenging and fulfilling hobby I’ve ever tried and I love it so much.
