90% of “vegetarian versions” of dishes are just the dish without meat. 9% of the remainder are the dish with black beans and/or mushrooms

The question mark denotes confusion or flabbergastedness. Nutella contains milk, so it’s explicitly not vegan

The secret is that meat on its own is garbage. Instead of using plants to make meat taste good (teriyaki, buffalo sauce, nearly a dozen herbs and spices, etc.), you can just use those plants to make plants taste good

Edit: removed implied support for Hamas. Both militaries should burn. Hope for a quick end to the conflict for the sake of the civilians affected.

I add words to my online vocabulary first, and when I’m comfortable slipping shit like bet and yeet and based into my comments I start slipping them into my real vocab

Charisma, particularly (but not necessarily) with regard to the opposite sex

As usual, the best dictionary has an entry on it! It isn’t exactly the same as my definition, but I’m not some prescriptivist who’s gonna say it’s wrong

workout regularly. Then you can act like it’s cause the gains instead of getting old.

I know it’s “because” and not a misspelling of “causing,” but I’m delighted by the idea of someone working out and getting ripped, who secretly thinks it’s the act of aging that’s making him strong, and that working out is just a placebo

A, by a goddamn long shot. If google mistakenly thinks I’ve advocated for a crime against a massive corporation, they’ll remove my account and ban me from their services. If the government mistakenly thinks I’ve advocated for a crime against a massive corporation, they’ll arrest me and ruin my life. Microsoft doesn’t give a shit if you acquired the 1s and 0s that comprise a popular TV show without paying for them. The government will fine you more than the average person will make in their entire life.

It also depends on where you live. Facebook doesn’t care if you’re gay or trans, if anything that’s valuable monetizable data about you. Iran will straight up fucking kill you.

By far and away calling my friend’s mom retarded when I was a stupid little kid. He was on speaker. If I could pinpoint the exact moment where my life started going off-track, it was then and there. But boy was I upset that his mom wouldn’t let him play guild wars.

I’m sure she’s forgotten it, and he probably has too, but the moment replays in my head at least once a month.

At least it was a learning experience. Now I never say anything about anyone that I’m not willing to say to their face.

128: The Death of Eastern Forests. I’m listening to the hosts talk about CWD and other prion diseases right now, which is a really cool and not existentially horrifying

It me! I wish I could find a way to shut my id the hell up and take control of my body back from it. Feels like it’s holding me hostage sometimes. Here I am on Lemmy instead of getting anything done because my subconscious instinct to fuck off is more powerful than my conscious desire to get work done

Reddit’s /u/odin_the_wanderer described it as “the Timecube of linguistics,” and I think that’s a fantastic description of the unhinged ramblings I’ve just linked

My favorite conspiracy theory is that Basque is the only real language, and that every other language on earth was made up by Benedictine monks to prop up the story of the Tower of Babel

The funniest part of this comment to me is that it could be said unironically either by someone educated in college or on tiktok

I sometimes expect people to know “basic physics,” which is apparently a bit much to ask sometimes. I don’t mean having a firm grasp on what e=mc² actually means, I don’t even have that. I’m talking about a firm grasp on energy simply being the capacity to do work, and the basic fact that there is no free energy device.

No, you cannot charge an electric car while it’s driving by putting wind turbines on it. No, you cannot use gear ratios to achieve overunity. No, magnets can’t solve the problem either.

PS, if you firmly believe that crystals vibrate on higher frequencies (eta: and that vibration can somehow heal you or something), but can’t describe what frequency amethyst vibrates at in hertz, you are what Dunning and Kruger set out to study

starman2112,
@starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yes and no. The quartz in watches needs to be tuned to a specific frequency. They do this by either adding material or taking some away, just like a normal tuning fork. Here’s a video explaining it better than I possibly can, and it’s Steve Mould, so you know it’s worth the watch

starman2112,

I got curious, so I googled it. There’s a company that sells amethyst that claims it vibrates at 32,876 Hz. They do not describe anything about the physical characteristics of the particular rock they measured, which would have an impact on the frequency at which it vibrates.

Another source claims amethyst resonates with the Crown chakra, which has a frequency of 768 Hz. They do not explain how they derived this frequency. 32,876 is not a multiple of 768, and would not resonate with something that vibrates at that frequency.

Yet another source claims that amethyst vibrates at 963 Hz. It does not list any physical characteristics of the rock they measured, and this is not a multiple of either of the other numbers.

Credit to Beadworks Philadelphia for explaining that different objects have different resonant frequencies, even if they’re made of the same material! Unfortunately, that credit is revoked because they immediately claim that amethyst crystals can cure or treat medical conditions. Shame.

Fun fact, the Wikipedia page on hentai has a list of common genres, and also some uncensored images!

And yes, it is better if you don’t know! But can you really keep that link from turning purple?
