That guy is a monster, when tomatoes are that small you pop the whole thing in your mouth and hide the explosion.
Which is so much better than injectables, which ARE torture. They get injected with a tranq first so they don't show signs of struggle or pain when the actual death shot is given.
Eh, depends on how the boss is.
Like, I drop f-bombs in front of one of my bosses, but would never in front of the other.
People are being banned off the internet for misinformation and being replaced by AI bots who spout... misinformation.
Sorry, what's the long pig? Other humans?
I'm almost 40 and I officially don't like Facebook. Why anyone still uses it is beyond me, it's just don't a good experience anymore.
Tbf though, I've backed off most social platforms.
Meh. Its slow, and the politics are more extreme. I've spent a good portion filtering most politics that I can out of my feed.
It's alright here. There's enough to keep me off reddit and not enough to keep me on my phone constantly.
I like my job. It's not a hobby, but it also ensures I don't burn out in my hobbies, which happened when I initially tried to make a hobby my job.
So proud to be present and involved in history's first lemmy app war. I'll be telling my grandchildren about this some day.
Sugaring.
I'll never understand why people continue to wax when sugar is an option. Wax is heated up to an extreme degree, which is why people can get burned. It sticks to your skin and rips off the top layer, which is why infections are common amd why its so goddamn painful. Wax requires multiple single-use paper strips, which is waistful.
Sugar never gets that hot so you'll never get burned. It only sticks to your hair, not your skin, so infection risk is much lower and it's not nearly as painful. No paper strips required, and only one glob of sugar is used.
Overall, all around, sugaring is far superior to waxing.
Sikhism.
> Sikhism rejects claims that any particular religious tradition has a monopoly on Absolute truth. Sikhism emphasizes simran (ਸਿਮਰਨ, meditation and remembrance of the teachings of Gurus), which can be expressed musically through kirtan, or internally through naam japna ('meditation on His name') as a means to feel God's presence. It teaches followers to transform the "Five Thieves" (i.e. lust, rage, greed, attachment, and ego).
All sounds pretty cool, but I have always liked that it's one if the few that outright rejects any religion's monopoly on Absolute Truth.

It really should be contextual. Every family is different, and each familial relationship is different.
I've heard him say children don't owe their parents money just because they're their parents, and I'd agree with that statement. The parents are the ones who decide to have the baby, how to raise them, etc, so i think it's wrong if parents think they're entitled to their children's money.
But that doesn't mean a child should never help their parents out financially. Morally, if you love your parents and can swing it, I think the right thing to do is help your parents if they need it. But there's a big difference between asking a child to help and feeling entitled to a child's help.
