It’s difficult to follow. It’s like they are drunkenly telling their side of the story to someone who already knows what happened.

Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

2·4 days agoWhat the fuck were you doing while your friends were terrorizing a lifelong friend? Warning: you’ll sound like an asshole no matter what the answer is. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Is it like that? I remember this being an issue in the 1970s. Even crappy old places that I lived in as a student had balancers. I think they’ve been required here since the…90s?
This took me a minute. I can’t remember the last time I was someplace that didn’t have a balancing valve.
I never really thought about it, but 19th century novels etc just refer to “excellent” or “exceedingly keen” memory. Like it was part of the memory recall continuum. Eidetic and photographic make it a category difference, like it’s a different thing than the regular memory continuum.

2·1 month agoSo it does! Honestly I kinda tuned it out because I thought it was stupid.
I think that may be true? I only know Leary from that Asshole song, and alive alive oh from Molly Malone.
I’m not sure we ever found out. The best guess was that it was tied to the Haj and the OP was a shy pooper.
We sometimes play a game around here where we’ll turn off the volume during a commercial and try to guess what they’re advertising. It’s harder than you might imagine for unfamiliar ads.
Came here to say this, but now I don’t have to.
I think ads are super effective for some demographics. Children are probably the best target market. Teenagers, particularly those who seek external validation or align to external norms are a sweet spot. Old guys like me? No effect whatsoever.
Not a Tankie! 🥳
I still have no idea what a Tankie is. As far as I can tell it only exists here on Lemmy and I might be one.
Hermann Ebbinghaus has entered the chat. He studied this sort of thing with nonsense syllables. You have to work at it, but yes most people can learn and repeat hundreds of them.
Gwen Jacobs fought for the right to go shirtless.
Not anymore.
