fwiw, sea slugs are usually poisonous (and colorful)

Yeah, photon frontend for lemmy is great in that regard. I can see a collection of threads of all the crossposts altogether in one page. Lovely! (except when the number of comments was too high everywhere haha!)

Agreed. Thou it doesn’t really reply to OP question about “asking for permission”. The advice given here is more in line with the netiquette of crossposts overall, and shows one special case where a crosspost could be undesired (not by its poster but by all users.)

Other than this, I don’t think there’s anything wrong about using the feature as it is. I actually find OP question quite “absurd”, like for me the answer is obviously not wrong.. just use the feature in the software (lemmy)

FYI, what some people do is divide the picture in small squares, count a few of those squares and then take the average and multiply by the number of squares.

I like that reasoning. If I had any toxic male friends saying shit like this I might use it, thanks!

“years ago”? you should try it again.

I am not really answering your question, but I had this crush on a girl because she was 10/10 on looks and also seemingly innocent as a young kid. In the end, she was really immature on intelligence and emotionally. I wouldn’t date someone like her again.

I say I am not answering your question because you only provide an example of a fact she didn’t know. My answer is more general, this kind of thing you saw on her is something that the person I am describing could have done, easily. To me, personally, taking the whole bigger picture, with more examples like yours, plus some context, and given my previous experience, this is a red flag and make me just walk away from them…

So, to answer your question, give it a few more tries. Look how do they react when corrected (if they laugh then is quite cool and fun moment.) but if they feel “insulted” then there’s lack of emotional maturity too… that’s my red flag.

While we are at it, let me share my secret: carrots as a snack (together with sports). Of course, this is not an exact recipe for success but it did work in my case and I’ve been surprised by it. I started training kickboxing again this summer, and I lost 4 kg in the first weeks, as expected. Because “we loose all the liquids”, or so I’m told. Anyway, I was weighting myself in the scale every now and then but I always kept the same weight. Then, suddenly, one day I was off another extra 7 kg… I was amazed. I haven’t weighted myself in a month. I couldn’t believe it (except that I already felt I was thinner, when touching my belly; and faster during the sport..) So, the a few days later I was talking to my mother and I told her how I’ve been coming from work, eat a carrot or two, and go straight to my training session. And that’s when it hit me… it was a matter of replacing cookies, fruit, or anything else I’ve been doing with carrots. Their crunchy really satiated me, so that after the sport I would eat a normal meal and not a bigger one (which I belive has been partially my problem so far too).

not an explanation but since we are talking about the greatness of corn, let me share this little fact: according to mesoamerican civilization (or, at leas the Mayas’ genesis) humans were made out of corn :)

PS. I couldn’t find a cleaner, high res. version and pictoline.com (listed there at the source) only has it in spanish. To make things even worse, there are many edited versions that replace nazis with other ideologies :/ f* the volatility of the internet… Oh. gotta search the internet archive… yeah, nope… not there either. Anyone can find a better version or knows the original source to this? else shall we try upscaling this JPG?
