I recently watched Whiplash for the first time, with a group of people who cracked jokes and talked over literally every single emotional high. When it ended they collectively rated it 6/10 because “there weren’t any likeable characters”.

I’m gay and housing is just as hard to find for me as it is for my straight friends. Housing in the United States is prohibitively expensive, even/especially for renters depending on the area. This comparison was flawed to begin with, but that’s not surprising considering it’s the argumentative equivalent of a “no u”. Die on a better hill.

“This post is about a movie from a year ago. Was the whole point to do some kind of weird roundabout "China bad" post?”

That’s the orignal comment we’re talking about. Where are you getting any of that shit out of this comment?

Where’s the “valid criticism of rainbow capitalism”? I think you’re projecting.

Ooh, answering questions with a question! He’s good.

Texas abortion laws already working as intended!

If you are a woman in Texas, you’re property. Any rights you have are only your’s until a man decides you shouldn’t have them anymore.

God forbid you’re also black, or hispanic, or asian, or gay, or...

I like the idea of defederating with instances like this. People gripe about creating rifts between users but like, are we really labeling the trolls calling everyone else trolls as “honest users”? lmao

They can have their own pissing contests in their own living rooms. It shouldn’t be our responsibility to field their fucken CCP sponsored bullshit in any random comment section because “it should be the user’s choice what content they see”. This is a cop out.

Defederate now, you can always refederate later when user filters are a little bit more fleshed out. As it stands you’re just encouraging their behavior by giving them a ticket to act with impunity, and they’re really loving the high horse.

lovely! what DAW do you use? Are those drums active synthesis or samples?

the way it swells is very appealing, you’ve got a good sense of pacing!

christ i was warned and it still caught me off guard. great job!

Oh darn, guess I gotta! hahaha

Funnily enough we have all the equipment for in house lost wax casting, including a homemade centrifuge (housed in a trashcan), and the ONE thing keeping that off the table currently is the fancy industrial furnace and it’s cheap, faulty thermostat. It’s one of the newest machines in the store and simultaneously the least functional.

We’ve got an engraver from the 40s, hand tools from the 30s, and a ring bender that I can’t get a date on, but it’s at least 100 years old. We’ve got jury-rigged setups that have outlived the man who hastily constructed them, meanwhile the BRAND NEW, PRODUCTION FURNACE is inoperable.

/rant lmao

All pre-1981, and yes it’ll turn you green hahah

The mechanics of it are rather interesting! It’s actually tiny bits of copper rubbing off and getting embedded in your skin, where the moisture causes them to quickly patina from orange, to brown, to green. The same thing happens when you do a lot of grinding or filing on copper; your hands get covered with bright copper dust, and then maybe an hour later they’re a sickly green.

Skin acidity has something to do with it as well, I know folks who have little to no reaction meanwhile half my finger is green when I wear these to bed.
