You already know who i am.

I definitely have BO, but I can’t smell my own, typically. however, I also just don’t find the smell of sweat/BO particularly offensive.
I’ve started using not an antiperspirant, but a substance that acts like a deodorant, because my partner is VERY sensitive to smells and mine apparently sets her off pretty badly.
I’m from NZ. I was very surprised to learn that our gun laws were quite lax up until the relatively recent mosque shooting in Christchurch - the assault-style weapon the shooter used was quite legal, including the special modifications he had made to make it better for killing people.
in the wake of that tragedy, things have gotten a lot stricter, though I’m afraid I can’t provide specifics - while I love guns, my collections are confined to the virtual, and I really have no interest in owning one IRL.
op hasn’t provided any pictures, they might just be being matter of fact, eschewing false modesty?
“i love my pet so much, I want them to be with me forever, bereft of everything I loved about them”
I’ve never understood taxidermy. I keep some pictures of one of my dead cats in the wall/as a wallpaper on my phone, and it still is sometimes upsetting to see him and remember that he’s gone.
AI has now taken over, not because it is super intelligent, but rather because humanity is so dumb.
I wonder if the verb Google will stay with us when its origin is lost in history
I’ve seen lots of people who say they’re from China, but they all look just like Japanese people, can I really just take them at their word?
Bethesda owns ID these days
that’s an interesting definition, and one that appeals to me especially as a fan of “harmless” theft (taking something that the owner will never notice is gone, nor be inconvenienced by the lack of)

I think having some form of “I agree with this” or similar helps to make you feel engaged with the content (for better or worse).
I think perhaps the actual person responsible for the post or comment shouldn’t be able to see the results, though, otherwise it just becomes another ego building thing, and you see people strategising explicitly to build karma like on reddit. instead, the author should see a rating, like “slight approval” “mixed feelings” “strong dissent”, etc.
Oh i had forgotten that! Thanks for reminding me!
I recall reading something - maybe it was from xkcd? - about how close to a supernova you’d have to be for the neutrino radiation alone to deliver a lethal dose. I think the conclusion was about 1au away, probably well inside the radius of the star that was exploding.
Since i believe supernovae are one of the few significant sources of neutrinos, to have to be so close to the source that you would have long since died of other causes before you could absorb significant energy from neutrinos speaks to how little they actually interact with matter.
What is actually used to capture neutrino images? Isn’t their whole thing that they basically don’t interact with matter almost at all?

Jung’s work is too derivative. If you want to be taken seriously, coach it in terms of Freud’s theories.
