The GDR’s is exactly what I would expect out of German communism. “We have the two working classes: laborers and engineers”

The Shepherds Crown will get you, but it’s one of his best books

Yeah as someone who hoarded at a worse stage of her life and struggles with it still, the piles felt like safety and security, but they also felt overwhelming and unassailable. You have to deal with the mental health issues and nonjudgementally get the person to be ok with the cleaning bit by bit. To this day big cleans are mentally and emotionally exhausting for me, it’s just that I find messes to be also extremely stressful.

Onions, beans, cheddar, and of course the spaghetti. Gotta go with a 5 way

If it ain’t a five way why bother

Mustard, mayo, and all. The buns get soggy but are good in it. The side of fries is optional

I prefer an ale, or barring that a pilsner

Yeah but while booze makes board games better they’re still fun sober. Drinking games stop being fun when you’re older even if you drink.

Yeah, I thought everyone knew that. Is not knowing that why nobody makes friends anymore?

Because those jokes ensured the no information voter didn’t understand that there’s a difference between the normal thing of over promising and under delivering and trump’s constant spewing of blatant lies

Because it exposes devs of projects that may not want to be exposed such as ICE trackers. Furthermore it gives Google veto power over whst you can sideload

Honestly we need operating systems to be regulated to have the freedom to install any app you want without the company’s permission. Maybe not all of them, but any provided with a general computation device such as a computer or smartphone, and the freedom to replace operating systems on any device that isn’t highly specialized with immediate safety concerns (stuff like insulin pump systems and cars)

By numbers straight women, by numbers per capita gay men

As someone who’s done it for fun and dated people who’ve done it for money. Yeah I stick to amateurs for a reason. It’s great to pay sex workers, but amateurs have a certain vibe. It’s one where I know you’re having fun because that’s the only reason you’re doing this

Yeah, I have to get drug tested a lot in my career and have an Adderall prescription. Firstly only one employer has even attempted to drug test me themselves because what they need is to know anything I test positive for is prescribed. Secondly that one that bucked the wisdom of others (it was a job placement agency) fucked up royally by kicking me out as I tried telling them that legally since I can prove I have a prescription for it they can’t reject me for it (this is why most don’t want to know, it opens liabilities). In their parking lot I reported them to the EEOC who declined to sue, but told me I had a case and I was allowed to. No justice here though, I’d gotten a different job by then and didn’t care enough to sue for a job I never wanted

They’re definitely rare, far more rare than many of the similar things to them like their opposite (chimerism where multiple sets of DNA but one person) or fraternal twins. But there’s a lot of people and identical twins have advantages for child acting especially but acting in general. Then consider that likelihood of identical twins is a genetic trait and getting a break in acting is much easier if you have family in the industry.

Long story short, it’s rare enough that even if you know several twins you may not know any identicals, but common enough that it’s not weird for random actors to have an identical twin. It’s typically just a lucky thing though and they rarely cast around it except for children (labor laws)

The wife and I made a retro game console. But we mostly use it for kodi

Well there are Estados Unitidos, but those are in Mexico

Because I’ve been told by people of the other nations of these two continents that it bugs them and I had a nice and easy alternative

I’m an industrial engineer who was hanging out on lemmy and my IT guy was talking about his piracy server, and well I thought that a legitimately aquired media server might be nice, and that home assistant thing sounded cool so he gave me the form to get two used desktops for free from the company. And well now I’m still fucking around with them every once in a while in anticipation for when my space will warrant actually using them full time.

It also helps that my local bdsm community had had self hosters who talked about it for years.
