There’s a protest scheduled for today in Fresno. I’d be there right now if I had gas money or a ride. Only learned about it on Thursday; didn’t have time to plan anything. 😮‍💨

Besides the dumbass tariffs imposed by the US on everyone, including an island that only has penguins?

English, Spanish, Japanese.

Please, and thank you.

Por favor y gracias. (Pour fah-vore ee grassy ahs)

Kudasai, arigato. (Or if you wanna be extra polite: onegaishimasu, arigato gozaimasu) (Ku-dah sigh, are-ee gato/own ee guy mosh, are-ee gato go sigh moss)

I know “please” in German, but not thank you. Bitte.

At some point, it stopped being common to explain the dangers of interacting with people you don’t know online. It used to be common sense that you don’t post images or videos to the Internet because they can be used to identify and find you IRL. Now people straight up post their fucking address and phone number on their Facebook page, while simultaneously afraid of someone knowing their IP address. 🤦‍♂️

I mean… It kinda already is? Wikipedia and other sources of knowledge are free to use. Many porn sites are not.

Niether.

Lemmy is the frontman for Mötorhead.

Can’t wait for the open scorpion test of Elden Ring 2.

“Nobody even realized he was dead until the furpile dispersed.”

If it was CSI, though:

“Hold up. So because he dressed like a deer, the hunter that shot him faces zero consequences? The fuck?”

My experience may be a little different than most; the ship I was on, for the time I was on it, was not actually in service yet. I boarded in Bremerhaven 2 weeks before construction would be finished and it started making its way to Hawaii. I fell down some stairs carrying some shit on our way across the Atlantic like 2 days before we got to NYC and I was going to be out of commission for 2 months, so they let me go. The only passengers we had were some bigwigs from the company.

As for fringe benefits and perks? I was averaging 16 hour days and you don’t get days off so I didn’t have the energy to do much other than sleep by the time my shift was over. But you only work 5-6 months periods, you get room and board, and since you’re not really spending anything you earn, by the time you get off to go back home, you’d have a pretty nice sum in your bank account. I had 1 month of paid training and was only on the ship for about 3 weeks, and when I got off in NYC, I had almost $10k.

Give her to the centaurs.

Stomach cramps when I am not at home.

Crewman on a cruiseship. I was basically room service/janitorial. The guy who lost his hand was one of the kitchen people for one of the several restaurants onboard.

Litterbox! 😃

Just 3; English, Spanish and Japanese.

1-10 was actually like the first or second lesson I had in Japanese, along with phrases related to telling time or paying for things.

I can fit a friggin’ tablet in my pockets. But I am also tall and wide and have big pants.

Just a couple weeks ago, I got a call from a number I didn’t recognize that wasn’t screened for some reason, accidentally answered it because my hand was sweaty and it registered a tap on the accept button and not the damn cancel button… It was a random real person trying to inform their family member about another family member’s death.

The most awkward wrong number I’ve ever received. Like, who the hell still dials the number everytime they call someone instead of just having it saved in contacts?

Just because porn made you aware of your homosexuality, does not mean it was the cause of it.

I saw a dude lose a hand because they ignored everything about passing through the water tight doors when they were moving.

This made me realize I have never had sex with anything on… No TV, no movies, not even music.

Is that weird?
