the nurse warned me after my surgery that I may experience bowel problems from the medication, so she told me to eat a lot of fiber… and my spouse and I just looked at each other smirking and I literally said out loud “I’m fiberpilled”
Nurse: you should make sure to eat a lot of fiber.
this is by far the funniest jigsaw_quotes post i genuinely cannot stop thinking about the sight of like, jigsaw opening his wallet in the checkout line at the Death Trap Lowe’s and he has like two pennies and a dime in there. and he just sighs
… all the tentacles complete — but no, the front one is not right! Some surgery required. Out comes the hacksaw, but only to the wire armature so the arm can be shaped into the correct curves. Then like Dr. Frankenstein I fasten it back together with staples and recover with more resin putty.
And now is time to sand …
and sand and sand and sand until it is time for the little sucker cups … M2, M2.5, M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, M10, M12 white nylon washers
I pulled out my collection of plastic seals and off we went for days of cupping —15 days spent modeling the contours of each of the 663 suction cups
The Blessed Virgin had to be sanded very delicately to give it back some of its immaculateness.
The happiness of some is the dust of others.
Take advantage of this white octopus, it seems that it is very rare to come across one. Shortly after I did my little experiments with paintings —
A few days to finish the color, but because it will have to go through a few coats of a special glossy glossy varnish, which makes the viscosity so good… mmm yum. Given the size of the room I could not apply it in one go. The drying takes between 24 and 48 hours, so it will probably take me a week to complete the application of this varnish-resin.
If your head is spinning too much, don’t look at this indecent image.

“I grew up in a Christian Western society. My perspective on life has been a result of my environment and background. The playful interaction of society’s many icons, physical transformations, and the resulting improbable combinations, have culminated in my vision of a woman’s role and place in our society. This inner questioning of a woman’s role, has led me to use one of the most sacred icons in my work, namely, the Virgin Mary. Initially, I begin with damaged statues, either donated or discovered in garage sales, which I then restore and transform. I surely do not mean to shock those who believe but rather to move those who see.” —

mojang really needs to fix the aquatic mobs’ underwater pathfinding because holy shit it is still so bad
Just out of curiosity how is it bad?
frog wants to go onto giant lilypad. tries to go through a block to do it even though a) theres an empty space right next to it specifically for that purpose and b) theres smaller lilypads around it which it can climb onto instead
axolotl getting stuck on amethyst clusters, i assume because it sees the space occupied by the cluster as free, so the AI gets stuck trying to get there even though it cant. these axolotl have been stuck here for literally weeks like this without moving btw. there’s also a dripstone stalactites outside the entrance of the geode that they get stuck on as well, i assume for the same reasons.
also, i had dolphins in this lake as well. theyve all slowly died, i guess because of the lilypads. they get stuck under them and cant go up for air and end up drowning, when they could just… move out under them and resurface. but the underwater pathfinding is stupid so they wont do that
The thing with dolphins is actually worse than you think, their AI straight up just turns off whenever they’re not being rendered so anytime you move away from them while they’re fully submerged they’ll just drown no matter what.
A TV series about the early Roman emperors, except:
It’s a comedy.
It starts with Julius Caesar (who keeps correcting the narrator that he’s a dictator, not an emperor, as if it makes any difference).
The narrator skips over military campaigns like the Gallic War and Claudius’ conquest of Britain in favor of “Haha check out Augustus’ shitty poetry” and “Caesar once tried to overthrow the republic with a wardrobe malfunction.”
You can tell the narrator gets bored of certain emperors because he keeps going off on tangents about Julius and Augustus after they’re supposed to be dead.
The characters get frustrated because they’re trying to act out a serious drama but nooo the narrator would rather gossip and it’s only 50% in chronological order.
Some of the characters start pointing out things the narrator says that are physically impossible, don’t make logical sense, or which their enemies made up.
Tiberius storms out partway through his episode and the rest of the narrative has him played by a sock puppet voiced by Caligula doing a falsetto.
Caligula attempts to sic the Praetorian guards on the narrator for making up filthy lies about him. Like, he’s still a huge dick, just not in the way the narrator claims.
Claudius just wants to teach the audience cool facts about the Etruscans but the narrator talks over him.
Nero is actually a Korean boy band singer who keeps trying to explain to people he’s a musician, not the emperor, and isn’t sure what he’s doing in ancient Rome. No one listens.
Galba is played by Rob Halford, the “stately homo of heavy metal.”
Galba, Otho and Vitellius have to share an episode, and even then the narrator half-asses it and leaves with 10 minutes of runtime to fill, at which point the characters (including the dead ones) break into the production studio and reveal the narrator is Suetonius.
Just a quick not friendly reminder: someone who has apologized for past mistakes, made amends for past actions, and clearly no longer holds past beliefs, is a far better person than one who digs up old dirt and uses a person’s past that no longer exists against them.
This is a resubmission of a previous poll i have submitted, but i wanted to resubmit it to give out clearer percentages. Sorry if your religion is not mentioned here !!!!!!!!!!!!! :(
This post gets notes every Ides of March even though it’s not a depiction of Julius Caesar’s assassination, it’s a depiction of the emperor Caligula’s assassination, who was killed on January 24th, 41 AD.
Is this about how ppl born in the late 20th century have a unique and fluid experience of navigating barriers to information access and its our responsibility to teach the younger folks how to tinker with technology to avoid being spoonfed everything we experience in order to have critical skills that keep us informed, autonomous, and able to hold power despite looming threats of authoritarianism or……….???
physics professors are really going through it- every day, I think about my quantum physics professor who once went on a rant about how there’s too many types of mustard these days followed by the words “well, at least quantum physics is less complicated than the mustard aisle” followed by one of the most cursed derivations I have ever seen

Did you know that to this day most image recognition software in computers will throw a fit and collapse inwards on itself if you just tilt the image by 45?
The fact that this is the default response of the vertebrate brain to confusion but crashes synthetic brains says something about us.
I’m not sure what it say but it says something.
@the-arcade-doctor does JOTA tilt his head or no? This is very important to me
here’s my one whole discourse post for pride month. you fucks will never ever ever wean off the radfem shit if you keep trying to give “cis men are evil” nuance. no, it’s not bad because they could be closeted or questioning, it’s bad because gender essentialism is a fucking brain poison and it makes you stupid
this is “not all men” cloaked in progressive-sounding vocabulary
imagine if doorways grew back like scabbed over with fresh drywall and you had to keep carving them back out with a jabsaw to keep the doorway clear etc
Imagine if the membranes recoiled in pain every time you did this. Imagine if over time, some doorways became accustomed sensation. Imagine that very rarely, some even seemed to enjoy it.
*sleepover host voice* imagine if you two went to sleep
Oh for gods sake kids it’s like piercing an ear - that’s why you put a doorframe in - you don’t hang a door in drywall, you gremlins. You frame the door. It’s like those gauges that people put in their ears - the hole stays. It won’t scab over with a doorframe in it. You’ve lived around doors you whole life, you little clowns. Lights out
i think some of you guys are insane 👍 it’s actually possible for a 16 year old to be online friends with someone in their 20s. source: teenagers are actually people who can talk to other people about shared interests.
21 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 that 18 year old is literally your college classmate. you are the same age. You Are The Same Age
like, the moral panic about age gaps in dating is one thing but this reddit thread was literally about Being Online Friends. you can be online friends with a teenager. they are actually people you can talk to. i promise.
it’s very easy to not be a creepy adult when talking to a minor. step one: don’t act creepy. that’s it. that’s all you need to do.
When I was sixteen, I and my boyfriend (eighteen) and his little brother (fourteen) all belonged to the same gaming group, which had been started by his father’s friend Steve. We played twice a week with a bunch of people twice and even three times our age, and we learned that adults weren’t aliens, they were people with their own feelings and fears and they weren’t always right about everything.
Those years at Steve’s table were incredibly important to my development as a person. And we had something in common: the game.
My predictions for who the two new hermits will be:
Skizzleman and TheMythicalSausage - this one’s pretty much the safest guess. They’ve both worked with multiple hermits before
SmallishBeans and LDShadowLady - This one’s another obvious one. I think their dynamic would make the server even more chaotic
Stampylongnose and Squaishey - These two are much less likely to join, but I’d be interested to see what they’d do on the Hermitcraft server
GoodTimesWithScar and Mumbo Jumbo - It’s a pretty safe decision to add them as new members, considering they’re already on the server
HBomb94 and CoughingBaby94 - HBomb is already friends with multiple hermits, and these two are basically a package deal
Iilluminaughtii and James Somerton - It’s not like they have anything better to do
Two additional, smaller Grians - They can follow Regular-Sized Grian around and crack jokes
Two random dudes who have never played Minecraft before - It would be nice to give the smaller creators a spotlight
Every member of Quackity SMP fused into two giant flesh abominations - This could be an exciting way to bring the whole mcyt fandom together like never before
Doctor Dre and Snoop Dogg - Name a more iconic duo. I’ll wait
Nebraska Man and Piltdown Man - Don’t let the fact that they’re well-known archaeological hoaxes fool you, these two are accomplished builders and redstoners, and they’d fit in well with the current server members
Ometecuhtli and Omecihuatl - It would be interesting to see what fun new dynamics two primordial Aztec creation deities bring to the server
The human personification of existential dread and fear of the inevitable passing of time and Martyn InTheLittleWood - both are familiar faces in the Hermitcraft community, and it’s only a matter of time before they properly become hermits
If Taylor Swift used her power for good she would be such a great stochastic terrorist. She would post on Instagram “Hey guys, Tay here. Just wanted to say that whoever delivers me the head of Ron DeSantis on a platter will get free Eras Tour tickets. #ShadeNeverMadeAnybodyLessGay.” It would be at her doorstep in two hours.
Seriously though, all the speculation about new members is super fun but we should all remember to give a warm welcome to whoever ends up joining, even if it’s not the person you were hoping for
Let’s not let any potential disappointment overshadow the new people’s arrival
Friendly reminder as we head into tax season (for US Americans), that the major tax preparation companies are fully prepared to lie and mislead you into paying for their tax preparation software when you might qualify for free software through the IRS.
Don’t fall for their bullshit. Visit IRS Free File and see what services are available to you. The requirements vary depending on your household status and income, but if you make less than $79,000/year (which is nearly everyone I know), you probably qualify for something.
i check twitter to see if any of the hermits have said anything about who’s on the s10 whitelist. Xisuma has tweeted. I laugh so loud I startle my cat.
NOBODY should EVER take this base64 string (aHR0cHM6Ly9tZWdhLm56L2ZvbGRlci9NQTB4aElZSSNQX3BqNl82SkxkaFdCcl9odllqSm13) and put it into the converter at https://www.base64decode.org/ to get all the major adobe programs for free! that would be a crime!

This is like one of those romance novels where people bond over accidentally writing each other emails but better.
Like Pride and Prejudice but instead of the love interest getting dissed for his toxicity and then reforming, it’s just two people bonding over dissing a dead toxic asshole.
hey uhhh but fr the concept of fallen angels existing but risen demons being an impossibility is kind of a great summary of sin in christianity
holy shit
no, no, come back here and tell me how stupid it is to talk about how the power dynamics inherent to christianity are built upon the rhetoric that failure is unavoidable and there is never enough you can do to make up for it
Refaat Alareer, an academic and lecturer at the Islamic University of Gaza, was martyred along with his family in a targeted assassination carried out by the Israeli occupation on December 7th, 2023. We must continue to stand against this genocide.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health released a report on Thursday, including the names of more than seven thousand Palestinians who were martyred in the Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip.
