  • Fair enough. Those were bad examples. Explain this one, under "thinking":

    How do you stop thinking about someone?

    To stop thinking about someone look for closure. Other methods may include finding someone else to think about, thinking of their negative traits, staying busy, and most importantly, respecting yourself. In the end, remember that it will all pass, and while there might not be a short term plan, patience and initiative will go a long way.

    I've never met an architect before, so maybe you can give me a plausible reason they'd need to know about closure.

    Here's an entry from "looking":

    What does “Here’s looking at you, kid” mean?

    The phrase “Here’s looking at you, kid” is fondly remembered from Rick’s famous line from the film Casablanca. The phrase means that he/she is happy the other person is there, and that the other person looks attractive.

    Or how about this one under "comic books & video games"?

    Are comic books better than movies?

    Comic books are typically better than movies due to a variety of reasons that include cost and time, the personal vision of the author and artists, as well as their experimental and bold nature. Comics also deeply care about their viewers as well as create an engaging and active process.

    I just can't imagine how a designer would use this.

  • Why do architects and designers need a description of what carrying boxes is? Why do they need tips on senior mobility? It's weird.

  • I'm gonna go ahead and disagree and say that you do need professional help.

    I'm not trying to minimize your experiences, and I'm not saying you're wrong about any other particular point. But a lot of times we can't see the big picture of a situation while we're in it, and your post here is saying a lot.

    Please find a professional to talk to. It won't hurt you, and it could help.

  • He's got a few other good takes. Like he supports term limits for members of congress.

    Honestly it just shows that he's willing to stand up against the fascist party when he disagrees with it. Which means he really genuinely agrees with all the fascism. He's not an opportunist. He's a fascist for the love of the game.

  • You can argue that the very first one was an honest attempt.

    I would argue against that. Vehemently.

  • From Mouse Guard, by David Petersen. I just read this one last night.

  • Ok, but did we try rolling the mantis in salt?

  • I was finally ready to clean out my closet and get rid of all my old movies and games. But now...

  • I'm not sure if this has been pointed out yet, but there was a leak a few days ago that said Trump was staging a fake PR blow up at the event. Like he'd discussed with his team that he was going to go on an unhinged rant and storm off like it was everyone else's fault, because somehow he thinks that that makes him look like the adult in the room.

    At the time I read speculation that this had been leaked by his own team in order to prevent it from happening, because it's obviously such a stupid idea to everyone but him.

    He skipped every other White House correspondents' dinner, and he was only going to attend this one in order to stage a fake PR moment.

    Obviously that's not proof, but add it to the pile of circumstantial evidence.

  • Was my link not clickable? It looks clickable on my browser.

  • I think they're only 2D.

  • Don't bite the pubes.

  • But they'd have written it in alienese. That's why I say dolphins - without a formal writing system of their own, they'd naturally default to a human one for the purpose of studying humans.

  • I've been enjoying this on Xbox but kept wishing I'd gotten it for Switch instead. I'll probably pick it up again!

  • dimensions.com

    It's the weirdest shit I've ever seen. Before I get into it, I want to point out that I've been using this site for years, since before LLMs were a thing, so this is definitely not generated by AI.

    It's just like, generic outline drawings of things. Objects, people, places, everything.

    So sometimes I like to draw, and I need a model to work from for the pose and the proportions, and this site has a ton of them. Child kicking a ball? Yes. Adult man sitting on a bench? Several options to choose from. Woman carrying a box? Three different poses.

    Pointing, pushing, protesting, thinking, vacuuming, raising one's hand to summon a waiter in a restaurant, it's all there.

    I'm sure there's some kind of industrial use for it, like for diagrams or blueprints or something, but then we get to the descriptions. Like on the page for people carrying boxes, it says:

    People lift boxes either in their personal lives or at work. People lift boxes to move residences. Mailmen or delivery truck drivers lift boxes everyday as part of their job. Some jobs may require their applicants to be able to lift a certain weight of box. When lifting boxes, it is important to lift with your knees instead of your back to prevent back injury.

    Then there's always three questions, which they provide answers to. For carrying, those questions are:

    What is a carry on bag?

    What is carrying capacity?

    How much can a horse carry?

    Why? Whom is that for?

    Under the pictures of elderly people it asks things like "What are the best exercises for maintaining mobility in seniors?" and "How can seniors adapt their homes for safety and accessibility?"

    Is this for dolphins? Did a dolphin learn to read English, and they want to understand human society?

    I'm struggling to find the weirdest examples, because honestly it's the breadth as well as the depth. Someone clearly put a ton of work into this, and I love it, but I don't understand it.

  • It's so good. It's actually even better without the Muppets talking, but obviously that's part of the video's charm.

  • I used to only buy name brand snacks. I like the consistency, and I can afford it, so I'd spend the extra few cents. And honestly I just didn't even pay attention to the price.

    But $6 for a bag of Cheetos? I can still afford that, but I won't because fuck them. I'm buying store brand for life now. If they put the price lower than it was before and fire someone for being so disrespectful to their customers, I'll give them another shot, but that's not going to happen.

  • No, but I'm very familiar with the mid-quel tv series, Lion Guard. It was my 6-year-old daughter's first real info dump. She'll go on about the lore for an hour, explaining about Scar's return, the Roar, and why Kion doesn't show up in Lion King 2.
