No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•As an asexual girl who still wants a male partner, would “scheduled sex” be a dealbreaker for men?
7·2 months agoI just want to point out that for many of us, sex ends up kinda scheduled anyway. When my wife and I started dating, we were both against scheduled sex and kept things organic. Now that we’re 40 and work 40 hours a week, fridays and sundays are generally the only days we have enough time and energy to do it. It isn’t exactly scheduled, but functionally I see no difference. The only times we’ve deviated from that in the last few years is when we’re on vacation.

General Memes & Private Chuckle@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Let the rain fall down on me
6·2 months agoWhenever I’m showering with my wife I spread em like this, collect as much water as I can, and then I turn around and splash her with it. Its great fun, especially if you squeeze in a stupid quip about covering them in nut juice afterwards!
This was my grandma. She married a Quebecois man who was ESL and raised his french kids from a previous marriage all while refusing to ever utter a single syllable in their language. You could ask her anything in french and she would clearly understand and respond in english. She spent sixty years living with and loving french speakers but she never slipped, not even a bonjour. She also refused to ever say why. We waited until my grandfather passed to bury her ashes because we were certain if we left her alone at the family plot in rural Quebec she would find a way to make us regret it.

Games@sh.itjust.works•When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game?English
5·3 months agoBaby Steps has made me laugh a lot this past month. But my last laugh in gaming was on saturday when I started the new Katamari game and the very first thing I made was given the title Miso Flavour Uranus.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Let's get real: What's your favourite Dinosaur? And why?
1·3 months agoCeratosaurus! Its basically a t-rex and triceratops mixed together.
It sure is. I can’t resist collecting the really stupid ones. Here’s a better look

Yeah Lae’zel doesn’t attack or kill solely based on race. Every character in the game is racist to some extent, I have always drawn the line at violence. Lae’zel also grows a lot and tones down the rhetoric depending on how you play. If you have sex with her and expose the evils of the Gith queen, she clearly sees the error of her ways. Now I admit I haven’t tried this so maybe someone here can enlighten me, but it feels like the same wouldn’t be true if I started as a gith and tried to fuck Shadowheart.
I guess it just boils down to the fact that I strongly believe rascists who only talk hate can be redeemed and talked out of it, while violent ones usually can’t.
You have convinced me to give her a chance next time so thank you for that. Lae’zel will stay in her cage on my fifth playthrough this winter.
She can be fixed? I’ve never let her live very long. I’m always so annoyed by her bigotry by the time the choice comes up that I happily let her die and have Withers make me a better cleric if I need it. I guess next playthrough I’ll leave Lae’zel in her cage so I can give Shadowheart a fair chance.

news@lemmings.world•Coldplay fans boo as Chris Martin urges crowd to ‘send love’ to Charlie Kirk’s familyEnglish
711·4 months agoHe was pro gun violence and anti empathy. It goes against everything he believed and stood for to send love. These jackasses pretending to care are just masturbating their own ego to make themselves come off as some paragon in divided times. Kirk died for what he believed in while doing what he loved. We should all be glad he did. Even those foolish enough to listen to him and support him should be able to see that.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•He has been fired for plagiarism and promoting falsehoods. Today, the White House embraces him. Meet online influencer Benny Johnson. English
23·5 months agoSadly I knew when the Daily Zeitgeist kept repeating the hilarious clip of him saying “My infant nearly died in a drug fire after mass shootings” that the next time I saw his name he’d be getting rewarded by the fascists for his insane lies.

unions@sh.itjust.works•Air Canada flight attendants defy government, employee rep rips up back to work orderEnglish
14·5 months agoGood on them! The labour minister should be forced to stay out this completely as she used to work for Air Canada. I would say its blatant corruption, but the last Liberal government did the same thing to other striking unions so really this is just a continuation of Liberals disregarding worker’s rights.
The flight attendant’s CBA is a decade old. Imagine if your workplace still treated and paid you like covid or Trumps presidency never happened. Between that and being forced to work for free while preparing for a flight, it is no surprise they’re striking. They deserve an incredible deal after everything they’ve sacrificed.
SirDankbud@lemmy.catoSide of the Road@lemmy.today•Watched this beast ride his unicycle up a steep hill
27·5 months agoUnicyclist here. It is all leg power, but this guy is exerting himself far less than you think. There are no gears at all, geared unicycles are extremely rare and almost impossible to ride. Makes riding uphill feel barely any harder than flat land unless you’re doing a slope much steeper than what’s pictured.
Whenever I was using a wheel 28 inches or bigger, I beat my friends on bikes going uphill and had way more energy than them at the top. But they always beat me on the other side because I had to pedal the whole way down.

Dogs@lemmy.world•Research from the University of Auckland and UC San Diego found that dogs displayed clear jealous behavior when their owners petted realistic dog-like toysEnglish
17·7 months agoI realized this a couple months ago when my puppy began responding to my cat’s name far better than her own. Here’s an example of her showing me I could maybe pet her and rub the cat’s belly at the same time. She came and laid there immediately after I began petting the cat.

Love me some David Graeber. I keep this link handy in case anyone wants to introduce themselves to his ideas or anarchism in general. https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/david-graeber-are-you-an-anarchist-the-answer-may-surprise-you

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you think early humans survived without water bottles? Did they just live next to water sources all the time?
42·7 months agoYou know the smell dirt makes when its wet? It’s called petrichor and humans can smell it better than sharks smell blood in the water. It is detectable by the human nose at 0.4 parts per BILLION. This gave early humans a huge advantage in finding water when needed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrichor
My wife came home from getting hers still in tears from the pain. I offered to go with, but the doctor made her believe it was nothing. Not content in simply hurting my wife, they set the string so it cut my fucking frenulum the next time we had sex! Took us nine months to find and book a competent gyno to fix her razor vag.
The worst part is my wife got the IUD because it was recommended by the gyno after she had a tubal ligation. It was not there to prevent pregnancy. They claimed it would make her period easier, the opposite was true. All that trauma and pain for nothing.
