“Suck my huge erect organ”

This is my favourite shower thought post so far.

God, I’ve felt such pain letting go of old computers that no longer function; with some, that had been with me for a long time, I went through significant effort to try to resuscitate them. Really makes me think that I’m not prepared for when our pet dogs go…

That’s fair.

Sure there’s that. I’m just trying to help you understand the viewpoint of some of the people that are heavy users of YouTube, and why there are currently no good alternatives, as you said “I really struggle trying to understand”.

I’m sure, like me, there are other people with their own alternative valid reasons for using YouTube for enormous amounts of time.

Just because some of the content on a platform is bad or not to our tastes, doesn’t mean it all is, and it certainly doesn’t mean that the users are wrong for using that platform in a way that suits them.

I do disagree with the publishing of content that is hateful or deliberately trying to misinform people, and I think YouTube has a lot of that, I’d obviously prefer it didn’t.

I use YouTube extensively (I mean, 2-5 hours a day) and 7 days a week for years now; I use it for language learning, there is really nothing better than normal people chatting (to the camera or between themselves) about regular daily stuff that I’m also interested in, to improve comprehension, I’d love to find any source as rich as YouTube. Peertube is hopeless, I tried and failed there due to a complete lack of content (though I do check in occasionally, I’d love if some of my subscribed YouTubers would start publishing on that platform… Though I don’t know if there are any monetary incentives for them to do that?).

Can I get an explanation of what it feels like to be happy and angry?

Hmm, are you not the most sleepy when you’re asleep? I’d expect a high plateau during bedtime.

The wizards series of the discworld books are by far my favourite, but for exactly the reason you’ve set out. (Similarly with the witches)

The dialogue between the faculty is so believable and so stupifyingly inane and political that it’s hard to say that anything is more probable.

Anyone actually interested in how magic works gets ignored and all that really matters is where the next good meal is coming from.

Just one of the countless reasons that Terry pratchett is a gem of an author.

Do it over a sink, hold both items one in each hand, pour with confidence.

I get what you’re saying, I’m struggling to understand why any pirate would ever want to fly a red flag.

Cone, surely? :)

What was the point of the red flags? Or… why would anyone choose to fly a red flag? I’m trying to understand why anyone would broadcast “if we come near you, you’re fucked”. It seems a bad hunting strategy.

Also, why didn’t merchant ships fly red flags to be less bothered by pirates?

As a person who grew up in Ireland since I was 5: this is funny to me
