I just don’t pretend 😅 Most people will get it if you’re honest and those who won’t, aren’t very good people to keep around.

It is a fair point, being obese and poor can definitely be a a horrific feedback loop to get out of.

In developed countries anyways, you don’t really see it in places where food is scarce, of course.

I’m more fascinated by the countertop. Although thin and probably composite rather than natural stone, it’s still stone and that can get really expensive. It might honestly get more expensive to do this and fix it later than just do it right from the getgo.

Tough, but fair.

Or just write it on a dive bar’s bathroom stall wall just above the glory hole. Would still be less filthy than a Twitter account.

Here’s a springboard article, if you want to do your own research.

The woman, based on whom the term was coined (the psychiatrist never even talked to her) wrote an autobiography “I became Stockholm Syndrome”.

There’s also the works of Allan Wade, a Canadian psychologist, who has talked to the victims throughout his career.

Basically when you’re at the whims of an armed lunatic, you might cozy up to them in order to appease them. The victims were also really afraid of the police coming in and shooting them. Which is pretty justified, considering the police couldn’t even identify the perpetrator before conceding on his demands and bringing in his prison buddy.

The guy with a gun, whom they’ve been talking to for days and has not hurt them in the slightest looked much less dangerous than the impending doom of the police barging in and shooting the wrong person.

Stockholm syndrome was made up to cover for police incompetence

Oh god, that reminded me of this statue. It has a LOT going on. So many questions. Perhaps they’re better left unanswered.

Go figure

Technically molecules consist of ions, not atoms. Though now that I look it up, they’re used more or less interchangeably in English in this context.

Gets pretty deep the more you think about it. There are 0 hydrogen atoms in a molecule of water. Does that mean the sun is a negative star?

What I’m saying is, life has no meaning.

I love how every single source emphasizes it’s “single-planet”, just because it’s by Hello Games.

Cause fantasy games with dragons are famously known to all contain interstellar travel.

Be careful, we might have some citrus-stealing whores in this community

Oh my god, he’s dead? Thank you, this made my day.

Shame it took so long.

I love how just a year ago, he was the one to call out FTX.

People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones and all that…

The whole industry seems like a criminal plot at this point.

Cordyceps is definitely used to make soups. But I believe that’s mainly C. militaris, not sinensis.

A kilo of chanterelle mushrooms sells for under 40 euros at an online grocery (more expensive than brick and mortar) around here. So that’s less than 20 euros for a pound.

It’s also pretty questionable whether using fresh weight is really fair for some of the mushrooms.

Weirdly enough, Cordyceps sinensis cultivation has recently had a breakthrough and I believe they’re moving towards commercial production (caterpillars and all), so the price might go down.

Ex-fucking-cuse me?
