  • Years ago I loved the List of Weapons That Don't Exist But Should , but they removed some of my favs, like the alternative acid balloon, and gorillas on PCP.

    The whole site kinda gives off Real Ultimate Power vibes a little bit.

  • "recently confirmed in a comic" doesn't really matter; because that's exactly how things get retconned in.

    I mean, you're right, but not because of the comic.

  • Strawberry shortcake for every meal

  • I can't believe that, as a preteen, I thought she was "too manly"Because a) no she wasn't, she was a straight knockout and b) that's sexist AF wtf preteen me.

  • Oh god, I blame Nosferatu for most of the terrible vampire tropes.

  • I wouldn't worry about cosleeping affecting their development.The only things you have to worry about is you both getting enough sleep, and any shame or embarrassment they have about cosleeping.

  • I think we're more likely to go fully wireless before there is enough progress in material science to make phones too slim for USB-C while also being sturdy enough for everyday use of the average person.

  • Anti-intellectualism is causing both

  • What do you think healing looks like, if not that? 😌

  • 80s babies too

  • USB-c has a bunch of futureproofing in it, like a bunch of pins that aren't used yet. And even without those pins, is supports usb4v2, which has 4 lanes of PCIe 4, and they keep doubling the speed every minor release of usb. If we get to a point where those other pins are needed in the next decade, I'll be surprised.

    So unless there is something physically problematic with the connector, like after all this time we suddenly realize that the design causes failure in some common scenario, or material science leaps ahead and the port becomes too large for consumer devices, then it's probably good that they're not making a new standard.

  • Probably a week as a kid, when camping. But I'd swim every day which kinda caps the grossness to an extent.

    Also before puberty I'd go days between baths.

  • not quite

    I nearly exclusively use Lemmy over Reddit, mastadon over xitter and Facebook, pixelfed over Instagram, ("nearly" because I still have the accounts, in case someone needs to contact me there). Although Lemmy is the only one I use frequently.

    I still use YouTube and tiktok instead of peertube and loops though. They're just not big enough to host the content I'm interested in.

  • Sports in general need to make it illegal to dive to draw an undeserved penalty (or actually enforce the existing rules)OrThey need to decrease the penalty for fighting so it doesn't result in an ejection.

    One or the other.

  • It depends on how passionate about their religion and how the aspects of that passion affects people around them.

    I'm a former/non-practicing Christian, and I consider myself agnostic or atheist now.

    I married someone with a religion from an entirely different family of religions than Christianity, originating in an entirely different part of the world. The way their religion really affects me day-to-day is that there are certain ingredients we don't keep in the home for cooking. Really not a big deal.

    But I can see dating a zealot (from a different religion or not) could pose problems

  • In line with OP's post:

    Fox: someone who is exceptionally attractive.

  • Lots of things get you slapped now that wouldn't a couple decades ago.But honestly probably should have gotten you slapped.

    Chick is a very belittling term for a woman.

  • The spirit of the internet was dead long before that.

    It definitely desecrated the corpse, though.

  • I feel like Werner Herzog would have some kind of depressing commentary about this
