To record the Republic's events - it's like trying to sing wax or believe water. You do what you can. The third paragraph buds eyes. The date is fundamentally wrong. The full-stops bite. You do what you can.

how to make friends online

I used to be able to do that really easily, but not any more

cant tell if its because of the internet structure changing (fewer forums etc) or if i’m just not as fun or nice as I used to be (and I dont know how to go back)

interesting how when ppl mention they tricked ppl into eating v*gan food under the assumption it was normal food people are fine with it/happy but if you trick a v*gan into eating meat you’re a terrible person and it starts WW3

I mean, it’s stupid but the tricking a vegan into eating meat can cause them abdominal pain and possible puking if they’ve been a vegan for long.

And likewise, a lot of vegan substitutes contain nuts and soy, two of the most common food allergies (or can trigger other problems such as migraines or digestive problems in some people depending on other conditions they may have).

If it’s a long-term thing that’s another factor. If you live with someone and you’re secretly putting soy or dairy in their food when they’re not expecting it in an attempt to “help” them, that can cause long-term health problems (e.g. interfere with digestion or hormonal treatments). And if they’re not aware they’re eating it, that can make it difficult to diagnose what the problem is when they do notice.

Basically, yeah, people may be fine, but you can’t know that before you start. I agree that you shouldn’t tell people that you’re giving them one type of food, but secretly giving them another. Whether out of laziness, or as a kind of “take that” at them. You just never know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, here’s why this is the best meme of the 2010’s

This meme is an internet staple that managed to be versatile, unproblematic, inclusive, and best of all one of the greatest examples of a shitpost. The humour was not in the grandeur, not in the references, not in the junxapositioning of labled words, nor in the relatability of it all. The humour is in the simplicity, the artistic composition of the original image, the three course meal of fashion that was served by the subject, and of course, the iconic pose that changed the way we see one’s hands clasped together with one’s feet shoulder-width apart.

This meme is a reflection of the average: middle class life in the ‘burbs; taking pictures at everyday landmarks such as the uneven sidewalk by your house or the tree you almost crashed into when you just got your learners permit; wearing your favourite matching top and bottom in a picture to show off the 18k gold plated wristwatch and loafers your nana got you for your birthday; the grandest joys in the most average of things.

In a way, I think deep down, we all know that Luciano did not actually have to do it to em, but we, as a society, are better off because he did

The Mary Ellen Carter - Stan Rogers

And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again
Rise again, rise again Though your heart it be broken or life about to end No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend Like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again

Spotted garden eel (Heteroconger hassi)

Spotted garden eels burrow into the sandy sea bottom to make their home. They eat tiny planktonic animals that float by them in the water current. Spotted garden eels live in the warm parts of the Pacific Ocean and the Red Sea in colonies on the sandy flats and slopes that border coral reefs at depths of 7- 45 m. They can also be found in areas dense with seagrass; this makes it easy for them to blend in with their surroundings.They grow to 40 cm in length and have a body diameter of 1.3 cm.
