I mean otters rape baby seals to death and animals regularly eat each other alive slowly but I get the point.

Out of all of our senses, smell is the one that triggers memory the quickest. The olfactory nerves in your nose are extremely sensitive and have a direct line to the long term memory part of the brain

You can’t park there mate

Recently became sous chef at the kitchen I work in. Constantly felt like I wasn’t good enough and so I’ve been putting more responsibility on myself to make sure things are done correctly.

Yesterday I coordinated our mother’s day buffet and it went perfectly. No hiccups, no running out of items. Even got acknowledged by my chef for doing such a good job. Felt pretty great.

This whole thing just reminds me of Fahrenheit 451.

The main character Guy Montague was being chased by the police but they couldn’t find him so they shot down an innocent person that they labeled the suspect so the populace wouldn’t see the police as incompetent.

People always bring up 1984 but they need to read and bring up Fahrenheit 451.

“Unexpectedly”

Garlic bread and sausage gravy.

Please just trust me and try it. It’s actually really fucking good.

I’m just bringing up the double standard. You’re correct in your assumption that I don’t want ANY genitals being mutilated.

But it’s not patriarchal that circumcision is normalized for aesthetical reasons. Women circumcise their sons because they don’t like uncut penises. I’ve NEVER heard a man say anything like that outside of not wanting their child to feel different because other boys are all circumcised. Women do it for aesthetics. Men do it because of a fear of being different. There’s a difference.

It shouldn’t be done at all but the idea that uncut penises look gross is inherently a woman thing.

It’s ironic because the whole reason I’m even here on lemmy is because I was permabanned from reddit for telling someone to crawl back in their hole because they were defending circumcision while claiming female genital mutilation was abhorrent. As if mutilating a penis is perfectly fine but don’t dare mutilate a vulva.

I know this isn’t the main topic here but it just reminds me that body shaming men is okay but body shaming women isn’t. Especially when it comes to sex organs.

Gestures at the current state of America

Mix of both.

I got perma banned for telling someone to crawl back into their hole because they were defending female genital mutilation while saying circumcision was perfectly fine because uncut penises “looked nasty”.

But I can still access all of reddit. I just can’t comment or upvote/downvote anything. And the nsfw instance of lemmy is a shit show of having to constantly block the same content over and over because there’s eleventy billion versions of the same community.

These comments are wild. My parents and my ex’s parents let us do this and it turned out horrible for everyone. The fact that people are okay with this is crazy to me.

Yes kids are gonna have sex with or without the parents knowing but letting them stay the night isn’t the way to go. Let them keep their doors closed or whatever but no way in hell I’m letting my daughter have a boy stay the night.

Yeah every concert/event I’ve ever been to the men willingly let women use men’s bathrooms because the women’s bathroom line is 4 times longer than the men’s.

I was recently talking to my boss about some storms that were coming through. I said there were tornado watches in place. He said “Yeah but how common are tornadoes in ohio?”. I replied “I’ve driven through two in the past 3 years.”

I think he finally understood climate change meant weather change.

The irony of that is after I threw it I screamed “You have one fucking job! BE a dvd player!”

Had a dvd player that would skip all the time even if it was a brand new dvd. Got pissed off and threw it at the wall. Girlfriend plugged it back in a couple hours later and it never skipped again.

Because good natured people don’t want conflict so they avoid it.

Bad natured people actively seek conflict and engage with it whenever possible.

Evil never sleeps. Peace does.

Pretty much. Only a more broad scale.

I can’t say it without getting my comment removed for inciting violence.

Have you never heard of an accent before?
