No. He was trying to kill you. Imo any amount of force and any target is justified in that kinda situation. Even if you managed to slice off his balls it’d be justified imo. Granted, if he disengages and you feel safe, then you should stop; I’m just saying that, in the moment, I’m not sure I would have felt safe enough to let him disengage.

Edit: the throat is far more vulnerable than the belly. Smaller target, but significantly easier to damage something in a fatal way.

Seems justified. If anything you practiced restraint by not killing him. If I was in your place I’m not sure I would have stopped because I’d be too scared that the wound wasn’t enough and that he might get up at any moment and start attacking me again.

Well… duh? A fairer comparison would be the cow vs jeep. A sea creature vs something designed for land isn’t that great of a comparison because water is thick enough that you’re going to need some kind of aerodynamic (fluodynamic?) adaptation to survive. Air is thin enough that evolution can sacrifice some aerodynamics for other traits.

Yes, but not that one. I always loved Floop’s castle in Spy Kids. I dunno if there’s a name for that style of architecture, but sculpted interiors and exteriors make me very happy.

Honestly, more people should embrace “theme park houses”. Make life interesting, yanno?

Holy fuck I forgot about that comment lmao.

“I will become back my money” is such a great phrase.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. (60’s Psychedelic rock, nearly all of the songs were hits, that’s how good it is)

Twin Fantasy by Car Seat Headrest (indie rock)

3D Country by Geese (country rock made by a punk band)

[the future academy of noise, rhythm and gardening presents…] The Dream by The Orb. (Ambient house? Can’t remember the exact genre, very ambient, sample heavy and “lush” but also dancable)

Keep It Unreal by Mr. Scruff (acid/nu-jazz I think?)

Frequencies From Planet Ten, Time Travelling Blues by Orange Goblin (two albums, stoner metal)

The Crazy World of Arthur Brown (by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown). (Psychedelic rock with rnb/soul-style vocals, also possibly one of the first narrative-based albums)

Ziltoid the Omniscient by Devin Townsend (prog-metal, one of the greatest albums of all time)

And if you want the heaviest album I’ve ever heard, try Snailking by Ufomammut. It’s… It’s something else. Basically a mix of doom and stoner metal but with sludge metal effects. Best way I think I can describe it is if Pink Floyd had been a doom metal band addicted to Lovecraft. It’s trippy in a lovecraftian kinda way.

Anyway, gonna cut myself off here.

Bro. I like the idea of introducing non-latin characters into the English alphabet, but holy shit that’s basically unreadable lmao.

Wait, is this real? The summary makes it sound like carbon monoxide, in small doses, is actually a good thing and necessary for our bodies. Is that true? Is it possible for someone to die from an internal CO build-up as a result of an overactive metabolism or something?

That’s great. But how long until I can play Balatro on my iPod Classic?

(I love that indie devs occasionally port their games to nonsensical or obsolete platforms)

Edit: I actually think Balatro would translate fairly well; assuming the iPod Classic has enough ram and CPU to run a visually stripped-down version. When I had an iPod Nano I played solitaire almost obsessively. The controls were a bit slow due to the limitations of using a clickwheel, but they actually worked really well.

On a side note: does anyone know if capacitive clickwheels still under patent, trademark or whatever was keeping other companies from using them? I loved the way the iPod clickwheel felt and it sucked that no one else had a 1:1 replication of it.

Yeah? They must loooove giving me that assignment then.

Department of Energy.

Are you me? It would have been so much easier if I’d come out like, 10yrs ago. At least I would have been on my parents insurance.

I’ll throw “stop being afraid of the furry community you fucking dumbass; they’re a hell of a lot nicer than your current “”“friends””“”.

Jerrrma

Please no. I think I’d have no choice but to firebomb the Vatican.

Edit: Catholic furries are fine, I don’t have anything against them so long as they’re not trying to proselytize or something; but I don’t want the Catholic church anywhere near me.

Thank god they didn’t go furry with any of their characters.

I don’t have much to add; I don’t watch a lot of anime and when I do it tends to be pirated downloaded. However,

High Guardian Spice is the biggest piece of trash to come out of anime in the last 10 years. It was marketed as anime for diverse groups, most notably highlighting their LGBTQ+ representation. Well, you know you messed up when even people in the LGBTQ+ community hate this show to death—like, no one likes this; this is terrible.

I looked it up and damn. Yeah. I don’t even need to watch an episode, the art style has the “we’re trying to pander as hard as we can” look to it. I dunno if it’s just that it looks like Steven Universe (which I’ve heard is a good show about inclusivity, albeit with a shitty fandom) or something else; but something about it screams “look at how gay and diverse we are! Give us money!”

If I’d seen this earlier then you woulda gotten some crazy (very NSFW) shit.

Why do you think it isn’t the other way around? I’m honestly kinda wondering if this is a case where at one point perhaps the US has Israel on a leash, but it seems like Israel now has the US on a leash.

BofA deez nuts

That’s true, but if the car is cheap plastic, then it might be fine.

(For those not familiar with gallium, it’s basically mercury but safe; so it’s a liquid at room temperature but a solid just below that, depending on where you live, without the risk of Mad Hatter’s disease)
