If eating liver is good for the liver, does that mean eating chicken breast will give you (man) boobies?
- Actually, yes, if there are too many hormones in it.Nairn
- ^+moldero
- @Nairn owned these notes quickly and efficiently. Breast is the worst part of the chicken BUT white moms love it (no bones).
No bone = no flavour.

It's 1830.

Fuck Winter. So dark.

Yaay.Nairn - I thought you were referring to years and thinking "Nairn couldn't be that old...or"grafician

- Can you spell the hours right ffs, is that your problem or a country thing ?i_was
- Apparently it's your problem.
Enjoy!Nairn - Nairn, me son. You have a golden ticket: your partner is Italian. Move there, and be rid of shit winters forever!Continuity
- We've had this convo - if it were up to me, I'd've long since been outta here! Also, where she lives is MUCH colder than in LDN when Winter gets dirty.Nairn
- I remember Ldn in winter, spent winter 2010/11 there. Grotty. Never again.Continuity
- meh, it's fine. it's not interesting, it's not snowy, it's not cold, it's just a bit grimmer than usual. At least it's not bone-chillingly freezing.Nairn

There're still people under the rubbles
some dead, some still alive.
Imagine someone creates a post after 9/11 and says "well didn't you deserve this America?" and other retards upvote it and say things like "well Bush was like ..."If banning heartless, brainless retards is a thing here, as we have seen recently deathboy getting banned for his stupid joke, then ban these racist dimwits too.
What did those people who lost their homes, lives or their kids, had to do with Erdogan or a Tunisian drug addict?
If you're trying to teach someone something, who are you trying to teach to asshole?We're talking about about racism in the USA all the time but this place is infested with racist pigs from Europe who are a happy to hear about an incident like this deep inside.
You know who they are, some are German, Austrian, Danish ...And thats religion thread is nothing but a honeypot for them to blurt our their dirty fantasies. Is there one religious person writing in that thread? It's just a bunch of jerks keep empowering each others' nastiness.
Its is very ironic that the religion thread is a deep dive exposure to how boneheaded atheists can be.
What does this thread do in a design forum anyway?
- Atheists are not an issue ffs. Grow up.monospaced
- Since when is not believing in supernatural entities boneheaded? It could be argued that believers are the real issue, killing and shit.monospaced
- well I dont see any religious person preaching hatred here other the atheists. Know your place.Beeswax
- Atheists don’t preach anything.monospaced
- I haven’t see any atheists promote hate here. Not a single one.monospaced
- As someone not muslim, i got his reference. Whether i put much stock in it or not is another matter. He is free to say such things.Nairn
- Sorry, I don't much like your religion either, particularly its need to censor. Doesn't mean I don't like or respect you as a human.Nairn
- I dont care what you think about any religion. Justifying a disaster with your fanaticsm is sick.Beeswax
- justifying the murder of innocents or the terrorisation of a country, because of some shoulder chip about visualisations of your prophet is sick.Nairn
- Fanaticism???monospaced
- I agree that was a stupid post. But don't quite get what is has to do with atheism.
Assuming that atheism is the basis of the opinion expressed in the postd_gitale - is not far from the assumption made in the postd_gitale
- I sincerely apologise.shapesalad
- I wished not to dismiss the pain and suffering in Turkey or make light of it. I was merely proposing a thought, but you’re right. Not design related.shapesalad
- All I'll say about: "What did those people who lost their homes, lives or their kids, had to do with Erdogan"_niko
- is that he's in charge, he's responsible for not securing the buildings, making sure they were up to code, instead he's focusing on adventurism._niko
- 20 buildings collapsed in Turkey and not 1 in Greece, why? Smyrna/Izmir is on one of the most active earthquake zones, why are shoddy buildings still being buil_niko
- built? why are older unsafe buildings allowed to be occupied? if the buck doesn't stop with Erdogan who does it stop with?_niko
- but yeah not sure what the earthquake had to do with a religion thread._niko
- I was thinking more about how deeply religious people, at least historically, viewed natural disasters as acts of god.shapesalad
- And the terrorist attack in Nice was seemingly done in the name of a god, and was pondering if other deeply religious would be terrorists view it as a replyshapesalad
- from god, the earthquake that is. But as pointed out it could easily be viewed as god saying it wasn’t enough and encourage more terrorism.shapesalad
- However as noted, what’s that got to do with design. And so I will try my level best to keep my thoughts to myself and stick to design topics on here.shapesalad
- I am not religious but spot on beeswaxkingsteven
- Qbn violence activated ™Hayoth
- What are any of the other threads doing on a design forum? It's all fair game until it touches on a topic you care about.
Our very own muslim Karen!palimpsest - Nobody is getting banned because you got offended.palimpsest
- "Is there one religious person writing in that thread?"
Hopefully not man, you seem to be very touchy regarding religion, muslim ?i_was - Lots of racist fuck around here, especially @nairn who also he's an animal hater, many people have left because of that.i_was
- What did those people who lost their homes, lives or their kids, had to do with Erdogan or a Tunisian drug addict? i guess a lot f them voted for him.neverscared
- wut? u blame the europeans for racist while u have a total lunatic which u dont find anywhere in europe on that scale, get perspective dude.neverscared
- so designer are not allowed to discuss politics or whats your point?neverscared
- also your constant mention of the terrorist being a drug addict seems to come off a little like that would be an excuse, which is not , actually its even worseneverscared
- if that is the case.neverscared
- The audacity of this bitch asking for accounts to be terminated because they offend their religion while Samuel Paty's death is still fresh in our minds.palimpsest
- from now on if i see even a half ass jewish joke i am going to freak out and ask for people to be banned. easy @beezrenderedred
- i am half jew and schwitzy boys was a funny comment on holocaust survivors showing their tattoos, but maybe i should've asked for a ban?renderedred
- B, you have as much right to bitch and cry as the rest of the community. But if you think you can ask for a fellow member to be deleted...palimpsest

All RL BS aside, just finished watching the Mr Bungle live set. Absolutely fucking brilliant watching a bunch of rabid 50+ year old dudes killing it. The Puscifer show was equally impressive, more artsy and weird but enjoyable none the less. Watch it while it's up. Best 15$ you'll spend this month
- Listened to the new Puscifer album today and I love the ‘synth’ feel. Gonna try and catch the show now.Morning_star

Is "son_dey" the same guy as "son"? Similar African occult like imagery in every other thread.

Or did he contact drgs asking for it? How do we know it’s not just drgs?scarabin - Oh for fucks sake
Certification gives nothing, green users are not limited in any way, no one needs to be certified to do anything, you incurable blockheadsdrgs - Certification means that user is a trusted source so everything they post should be taken at face value regardless of our opinions on the matter.palimpsest

Boo. I've just done the Covid Antibody test and .. it's come up negative. Oh well.
- I took the test apart after to see what's inside. Quite impressively simple, for what it does - essentially, just a thin chromotographic (?) strip.Nairn

- Here's a pic of the thing after i took it apart (it had blood all over it too), along with some of the things
https://imgz.org/ipb…Nairn - Yellow thing is stabby blood-letting thing, bottle is a dilutant of some kind. main thing did have a clever strip inside, with bars (like pregnancy tests)Nairn

Gf and I just escorted a girl back home.
I spotted her being followed by a sleazy young guy slowly driving a scooter on the sidewalk a few meters behind her, and waiting as she entered a Chinese take-out.We walked in there, she confirmed he had talked dirty to her minutes before on the street, and she seemed relieved she wouldn't have to be confronted by him again.
That guy looked like nothing inherently threatening, random short chubby early 20s guy, harassing girls at night and possibly waiting for one to say the wrong thing or look the wrong way.
It's not much but enough to make me sad that this is a lot of girls' daily life.
- that's good karma, you did the right thinggrafician
- damnit it I read GF and I took escort girl back home lol got my hopes up!
but good on you none the less!_niko - ^ samepango

why does US use metrics to measure their bullets?
- Inches are bigger than centimetres.Nairn
- bullets are in millimeterspango
- thats what i thought too. use inches and get bigger bullets!pango
- wouldn't they like bigger bullets?pango
- Millimeters are more powerful than fractions of whole numbersGnash
- Oh, d'oh.
Millimetres are more than inches.
Like, many more.Nairn - Why does the UK use inches to measure their cocks?scarabin
- You can fit more millimeters than inches in a bullet, therefore increasing their power. And like Gnash said you are packing the whole power of the millimeterpalimpsest
- instead of a fraction of the inch.palimpsest
- ExactlyGnash
- @scarabin to honour our cousins who still use imperial. When you look at a dick you can't help but think of Americans.MrT

- @imbecile
I've always heard it called a nine milliliter not a zero point nine centimeter or nine tenths of a centimeter. Milliliter is the way to go.palimpsest - my posts illustrate most bullets in US are sold contrary to the original post. 9mm is the only common metric bullet used in the nomenclatureimbecile
- So it's a Colt point forty-five [centimeters] and not a Colt forty-five [millimeters]?palimpsest
- or a Colt forty-five tenths [inches]?palimpsest

How do I get more courage?
I'm too flexible and accommodating with offers.
I have a friend who always asks for raises and more time off and gets it.
But I want to be nice and accept reasonable offers.
How do I learn to be a jerk and always ask for more?
In the past, asking for crazy amounts has gotten me no job. I'd rather take less than nothing.
- Have an alternative. If you have other options in you back pocket, even if you don't reveal them, it will come through in your confidence and demeanor.monNom
- It's not about being a jerk. It's about having more people who want to work with you than you have time to do the work.monNom
- Don't change your demeanor towards kindness...when giving, ask for something in return and expect nothing less.utopian

Neighbour got kicked out of their house yesterday. Yikes! She was a personal trainer, so obvs lost all work, and has a 12 yr old son! I feel so bad for them.
Now we have an issue, she had 4 cats that lived on her balcony. We had issues as they would shit in our small garden, and on Sat we found out they'd been in the house and shat in the pot plants!! (took forever to find out what the fukken smell was!!)
But now she has left the cats behind (which I get - her stuff was out on the street, she couldn't exactly worry about trying to herd cats)
We put food out and the poor things gobbled it up in seconds, they must have been so hungry!!! Don't know what to do now, whoever moves in next will no doubt not want 4 cats. I think we gonna try at least get them caught and spayed
- keep them. Until she can take them back?shapesalad

As for the cats, I'll make sure they're ok whether spaying them and keeping them fed but stray, or finding a no-kill shelterProjectile - they were never inside cats anyway, so wouldn't need to actually take them in. Also they're super cute so maybe adoption's an optionProjectile

Found the mouse that'd been nibbling food at the back of my desk last week. Little fucker was in my bin - guessing it couldn't resist the smell of the empty crisp packet of [fucking amazing] Chorizo crisps I had in there. Not sure it was lucky I found it - I only noticed it was there as I happened to be digging around the bottom, looking for a piece I'd discarded to check I'd replaced it. Given that I did find the mouse, I captured it and took it for a wee walk and release it along a canalside. It was only seconds after I released it (well, it made a heroic leap from the container I had it in) i thought "Shit - poor little fucker's spent days building up a reserve of food for winter and I've just taken it away from all that".
Perhaps it would've been better it' been left to its chances at the bottom of the bin for the next few days and then gotten thrown out into the bins outside? Sorry, little guy.
- No shortage of food outside for the little guy, the mouse will be fine, don't worry!spl33nidoru

- Yeet that fuck directly into a river. They carry disease and will lay eggs in your mouth while you sleep at nightscarabin
- but it was so cute and now i keep thinking how i've taken it away from its family and it's cutting me up inside. it's so far from home, lost and scared.Nairn
- it's nighttime now. it'll be trying to settle into safety somehow, somewhere, thinking about its family left behind.
i've done a terrible thing.Nairn - i should have just killed it and then put poison down to finish off the family.

I really struggle saying the word 'unfathomable'.
In my mind there are apparently a few more syllables strung together by some haphazardly placed n's, m's, and couple spare vowels for good measure.
Also, when I see the word and say it correctly, I feel like I'm saying a different, but phonetically similar word, albeit after a well-anesthetized root canal procedure.

Another job interview turned rejection. Its like running into a brick wall when you routinely go 2-3 rounds deep and then they say they are going with someone else. Then you have to get yourself amped for the next one. This is some BS.
- Say you have other options lined up and cut the process, don't go too deep 2-3 rounds without a firm confirmation you are their preferred candidategrafician
- look for key words like "we just want to know you better" or "our process usually lasts X months, but..."grafician
- look on linked in for similar jobs in your area and see how many candidates apply, if many, then the market is flooded and companies take their pickgrafician
- but if there are more similar jobs in your area with less candidates, it means the companies are stressed they don't find the right candidate so more win for ugrafician
- also don't just apply to local jobs, it's all about remote work from now on, apply to overseas similar positions, if you can afford the salarygrafician
