I had a pet house centipede for a few years in Durango. By which I mean, there was a large house centipede in my apartment that I named and would sometimes make direct eye contact with and point at the silverfish and yell "GET HIS ASS!" because the total ineffectiveness of that was amusing.

...until one day, she started approaching me while I was pointing out a silverfish, and found it. After a few weeks, she would come out from behind the cabinet and stare at me until I pointed out a silverfish. I don't think she understood the pointing because she was just sort of orbit me until she found it, but she definitely understood that that pose meant "there are snacks about".

We were friends for both years I lived there, and I made sure to take her to the apartment of a bug-loving friend before I left because I was worried the next occupant might kill her for being friendly.

Elder Scrolls is fascinating to me because the vast majority of the background information of the setting is very obviously written by people with an admirably clear-eyed understanding of how history is mainly just groups genociding the shit out of each other before constructing post-hoc rationalizations of why that was a cool and good thing to do, if they bother justifying anything beyond the level of Might Makes Right. And then the actual main quest plots are often operating at Sword Hero Cleanses The Undesirables levels of These Are The Bad Guys, Kill Them Because We Said So

[spiderace]

I mean this IS why Morrowind is the best. Dagoth Ur has done a Bad Thing but arguably because you, the Nerevarine, betrayed him, and so did the Tribunal. He is sympathetic and honorable in person. But he also brainwashed a bunch of people and turned some of them into ash monsters. Everything about it is ambiguous and uncomfortable.

That's on top of the expected 500 factions all trying to wipe each other out, most of them Dunmer. I think the Telvanni are the least racist, and the Telvanni uh. Um. Okay, maybe the Mages and Fighters.

energy policy would be much better if we still had a tradition of animal sacrifice I think. people would be way more chill about nuclear energy if they could see a large and proud bull being ritually sacrificed every month or so at the base of the cooling towers to keep the plant safe

[harry-trumans-dishwasher]

Strict Adherents of Gun Safety: Engineer, Spy, Sniper. If one of those three mercs is seen dropping their gun or even holding it weird, the other two will ruthlessly mock him for weeks.

Perfectly In-Character For: Scout, Pyro, Medic. Pyro and Medic are untrained with firearms and scout’s mother thought a high shelf was a safe enough place to keep loaded guns.

Secret Third Category: Heavy and Demoman refuse to believe their weapons, in their hands, could do *anything* accidentally. They will absentmindedly muzzle-flag you and give you a look if you get upset.

Super-Secret Fourth Category: The Soldier read a book on forklift safety and got it confused for gun safety. If he has to cross railroad tracks while holding a gun, he will do so at a slight diagonal angle.

my only advice is to BE CAREFUL posting about holiday traditions around europeans. you'll post something casual like "anyone else watch the old Grinch movie every year? what a classic" and a european will appear as if summoned and say some shit like "funny how USAmericans always CONVENIENTLY forget that Not Everyone On Earth is from The USA…….. no of COURSE we dont watch 'the grunch' or whatever the fuck that is…. our tradition is to attend a community showing of Glummdorf the Racial Stereotype"

[theknightlywolfe]

As a note, part of the imagery is also because he is cuffed with hands in front. And we have seen that imagery before in classical art. Aside from the safety aspect to others of cuffing someone's hands behind them, it is the pose you and I think of when we think of a caught criminal. Vs...

Also, his head is facing in a different direction than his body is pointing, another classic of classical composition styles.

So, yeah. To say nothing of colour and contrast and serene expression vs resting frowny face.

Change.org - Petition To Hire 1,000,000 People To Put Their Fingers In The Shoot Hole Of Peoples’ Guns So They Can’t Shoot Them

[mycatisnamedfrank]

It’s still gonna shoot… And they’re gonna lose a finger

[bidoof]

No. The finger blocks the bullet. We can do this

[domozillla-deactivated20181216]

This is a gun we’re talking about. The projectile is fired using an explosion, not by compressed air of a toy gun or the elastic forces of a sling shot. People would be lucky if they only lost their finger.

[bidoof]

The finger blocks it

[dildomuncher3000]

The finger won’t block it - the shaft is only there for keeping the bullet straight, all the propulsion happens behind the bullet. The bullet would rip through the finger, not that many would actually fit without the victim being a child, and beyond.

[bidoof]

The bullet would go forward a little and then hit the finger and stop it’s not that hard to understand

[fifty-percent-possessed-deactiv]

People are going to lose their hands. Go watch Mythbusters. They did an episode on this, the hand fucking exploded.

[hungwy]

No, the bullet would start to go but stop at the finger. Thats basic physics. Also hands dont explode normally they did something wrong.

[blipblerp]

Why the dingleknockers would you even consider sticking your finger in the barrel of a loaded gun?? the amount of force propelling the bullet at that close of range would shatter the finger at the very least; this is a petition for 1,000,000 people to loose the use of their hands. If a bullet explodes the back of a persons skull when they shoot it in their mouth it sure as hell will explode a finger.

[gorps]

No the finger would stop it

[indianworiorprincess-blog]

You guy who think the bullet would stop at the finger have never shot a gun and can volunteer to it their fingers in the barrel of my 9 mil and I’ll I’ll the trigger and see if it will stop the bullet. Dumdasses

@meatswitch @raptorific this is a US based site. US Americans are known for two things- obsession with guns and incredible stupidity. Had this been anyone else, I’d say they’re trying to fuck with us. But with US Americans, about 70% of them are dead serious about mangling their hands trying to stop a bullet.

[meatswitch-deactivated20231107]

I’ve had four years to think about it and now I think the finger would stop it

[gorps]

I just tested it with my buddy. It stops the bullet

[several-large-churros]

….Mythbusters WELDED A METAL SPIKE into the barrel of a gun to obstruct it, something heaps stronger than a human finger (and sealed the barrel better with the filler metal used to fuse the metal spike into place and prevent the explosive gases from escaping) but even that didn’t stop the bullet from doing damage.

[gorps]

It’s because they didn’t use a finger like I did

[naamahdarling]

Because of the Coriolis effect, in the southern hemisphere the bullets come out the other way. That’s why you have good gun laws, because people could get really hurt if the bullet didn’t come out the front so your finger could stop it.

yall know what fucking time it is

it’s literally alice’s restaurant day

[gallusrostromegalus]

Ok kids if you haven't heard this one before:

Alice's restaurant is an almost 30 minute song that is protesting the Vietnam war and the draft but that is peripheral to its main thing, which is telling the story of the Thanksgiving Day Garbage Massacre (Humorous Event)

My dad played it in the car when on a road trip when I was 7 and it permanently changed my brain chemistry and that's why I'm like this (also Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy but mostly this)

It is absolutely worth sitting down and really savoring it for 30 minutes. Just don't do it *immediately* after dinner because you will laugh so hard you will puke.

[loafed-beans-deactivated2020082]

[fedkaczynski]

What’s funny is that this actually happened. 

[allamericankindofguy-actual]

I’m unfamiliar with this story please elaborate

[fedkaczynski]

Finnish soldier gets separated from the rest of his unit but he’s the only one carrying the emergency amphetamines for the unit, takes too many and goes on a one man rampage for like 2 weeks straight giving the opposing Soviet soldiers nightmares for decades. Oh and he did it all on skis. 

[ethereal-insight-deactivated201]

Did he survive?

[loafed-beans-deactivated2020082]

Yes, during his methed up 2-3 week rampage he got injured by a land mine, travelled 400km on skis, and only ate pine buds and a Siberian Jay that he caught which he ate raw. When he made it back to Finnish lines he was taken to a hospital where it was found his heart rate was nearly 200 beats per minute and his weight had dropped to 43kg (94.7lbs).

[somethingusefulfromflorida]

Hobbes and Tigger would find some aspect of tigerhood to bond over, but Calvin would put Christopher Robin in the ground.

[gallusrostromegalus]

I've seen this post go around a few times and I have to respectfully disagree. Calvin and Christopher Robin are ADHD-Autism solidarity and share mutual interests in "elaborate daydream RP", "fucking around in the woods", "Precocious Rage at the injustices and tragedies of life", and (if we want to include that one particularly unhinged winnie-the-pooh baseball videogame in canon) "being the living incarnation of chaos"

They'd circle each other awkwardly and repeat bits of memorized social pastiches at each other like two furbies reacting to each other's noise before realizing the other is just as just as unhinged as they are, and then they'd be inseparable.

Like, Calvin will absolutely throw Christopher Robin into the creek at least once, but this is the way of profound childhood friendships.
