Rick Sanchez defined the subset of the multiverse where he is the smartest being in the universe as the “Central Finite Curve.”
That’s pretty narcissistic.

Only 4 inches? Look at mister monster cock over here.

FIVE MORE DAYS. Life before death, radiant.
I can only hope the changing mating habit is that they’ve all stopped mating. I hate those damn bugs.
They’re invasive where I live, and it seems like they don’t really have predators. And they’re so damn loud when they fly around inside your house. And they smell awful if you startle them or squish them. Only thing I can do is catch them in a cup and flush them down the toilet.


Doing stuff is important. But I have enough hobbies that I think I could stop working and not get bored.


Yep. My wife and I are in our thirties and have good whole life insurance policies that will supplement our retirement accounts nicely in our old age. I’ve been paying into mine for almost two decades (maybe longer, my parents started it for me and locked in good rates when I was young), my wife’s is newer. We also both have matching retirement accounts and are making sure we hit our matching totals each paycheck to draw as much from our employers as we can.
It’s not ideal, but with good planning (and stable income) you can still do well. Now, stable income is the important part. I’m a software developer, my wife works for a non-profit, so my income is generally a bit more stable than hers.
I recommend finding a financial advisor. Our life insurance guy is great and because he gets commission on the life insurance plans he doesn’t charge us for advisory services (and also doesn’t try to sell us on other stuff, he actually recommended we NOT move our old 401ks from other jobs over to him because we’d end up paying him more than we’d make, he recommended we roll them into our current employer plans).
Be careful giving away personal information on Lemmy. It’s wildly difficult to ensure stuff is deleted or removed in the Fediverse across multiple servers.
Yeah, you think you’re hot shit as a tiger and then here comes a Hellwasp…
I would be inclined to agree with, “a hotdog on a bun is a sandwich.”
Do you have a term like “hotdog” for a sausage of questionable origin in a bun? Or is it, like, sausageofquestionableorigininabun like other German compound words? 😁
A hotdog is not a sandwich.
If you serve bacon, lettuce, and tomato on a plate, you do not call that a sandwich.
But if you serve a hotdog without a bun, you still call it a hotdog.
QED.
He wasn’t to blame, though he easily could’ve been. That was death was the radiologist’s fault though, IIRC.


Parshendi, if they can be called a monster race.
Having completely different forms they take for specialization depending on task is fascinating. And I love the way rhythm is baked into their being so innately, how every Parshendi can hear the same rhythms and attune them to express or mask emotion.


I don’t assume they are perfect. But I do absolutely believe they are significantly better on privacy than any other major player in the smartphone space.
Even if you don’t pay any attention to their policies and programs, the mere fact that iPhones aren’t running an OS owned by an advertising company should be enough to demonstrate this.


“Begs the question” frustrates me. I know language changes, I know I shouldn’t be prescriptivist about this.
But it always strikes me as someone trying to sound smart and failing. They think it’s a fancy way of conveying something it didn’t mean (though now it does because people used it so much without knowing what it meant).
Just use “raises.”


Okay, so, I know it’s a trashy answer:
Domino’s Philly Cheesesteak pizza. Especially with jalapeños added.
I would RATHER have Lou Malnati’s, but I don’t live in Chicago. So my favorite readily available pizza is a national chain’s surprisingly delicious offering.
Fascinating, I’ve found better results with Apple Maps lately than Google Maps. Which blew my mind, because Apple Maps was a complete joke when it launched.
Turns out he’s also a climate change denier.
