I've made so many mistakes in my life that all seem so easily avoidable when I think about them now.
Lost opportunities, loves, experiences, money (easier said than done).

I find it strange that while people are getting fatter and bigger (as well as some more muscular) that the clothing sizes are shrinking.
My body shape and composition hasn't changed that drastically over the past 5-10 years. I'm lean fit, maybe I've gotten a bit more ripped but no extreme difference.
However I noticed when in the past I used to wear a M or L t-shirt size I now have to buy XL or even XXL because M or L are so tight.
At first I thought the brands are trying to cheap out but then it's the same price for all of the sizes usually.
I noticed this across so many brands, even alternative ones.

- I have noticed this with cycling kit. I regularly wear XL kit bought 3 years ago, and tried on new kit in XL and absolutely no chance, XXL at minimum.BuddhaHat
- I noticed this too. I used to wear M t-shirts in a comfy way and now I have to buy L to have the same effect. I have 4 Kg more than 5 years ago but still...oey_oey
- Chinese XL size ¯\_(ツ)_/¯OBBTKN
- I have 2 shirts from same brand. one M Chest 104-112cm. One L chest104-112cm.
size labels are inaccurate. always check measurement.pango - I'm just getting swole ;)necromation
- same.
also same as pangosofas - Isn't it the opposite? Go to a vintage shore, a 70's shirt is sized L but comparable to a size S today. To make fat people feel better about themselves.shapesalad
- Perhaps now there's a change in sizing to encourage you lard asses to lose some weight.shapesalad
- It’s WALL-E IRL bro. Round, jelly-like folks with screens/technology making all of their decisions.ideaist
- I too have shifted from a M - L. Mostly for arm / torso length.ideaist
- Huh, I've gone from all L to half L, half M now. Much more ripped than I've been in decades (a tad thinner, though)formed
- Do black people fit in the same sizes?palimpsest
- OK, I read that wrong. It said "while people" not "white people". :spastic:palimpsest
- It's because they're running out of fabric. #wakeupyuekit
- Fabric is a social construct.palimpsest
- same price, less fabric, more profit.
or asian standards are winning and nobody cares to relabel that shit in the west.uan - Has anyone considered that everything in the whole world except NBQ00 is in reality getting smaller?shapesalad
- He’s cultivating mass!scarabin
- I've gone from a size 46 to 47/48 in shoe size. My feet definitely haven't grown...Jrdntnnr

We got back late-ish on Saturday so we decided to get take out - my partner gunning for pizza from a local place, as always, I thought I'd treat myself to a burger, ordered via Uber.
I've since had NINE emails from them (ok, one was a receipt for the order) with the latest titled "It's been too long since your last order"!
It wasn't even a good burger - like, at all. Fuck you, 'SoBe'. Eeughft, dry, overcooked catfood shite. That'll learn me (it won't).

My company just hired a 26 year old person to handle press. I looked up her instagram and she's got 40k followers and has 500 photos, 99% of them are of herself, making faces and showing cleavage. And she's obese.

When Blender renders an image in Cycles, before the 'denoise' part - why not have AI denoise it? Surely that would yield significantly optimal results.
- I've just been reducing the max samples to 30-40 for much faster renders. Still looks ok. Defo some AI denoiser would be good on finished rendersPhanLo

Tomorrow I will work on my art project. The one with the apple pie. Remember? You probably thought, I was only joking, but I am really doing it.
I kind of fear of not being able to succeed in generating the images which I can imagine, simply not being good enough and not having the skills. But if I don't try it, I will never find out.
Weather forecast is excellent. Only down-sides: My model has a swollen leg due to a stitch from a bee (looks a bit nasty as it is quite large) and the location put a tent on a lawn where I wanted to shoot.
- Photoshop will fix this "down-sides"OBBTKN
- Good luck, and remember to share it, if possible ;)OBBTKN
- Will share for sure. Hope I won’t get QBN roasted though. It’s my first ever film project and I am working alone.SimonFFM
- Yo Simon, go out an smash it for you, no one else! good luck friend.robthelad
- I will be nice, I promise.********
- Dress the model up as a beekeeper, make it the theme of the photoshootdrgs
- lol drgs, it's a film project. Anyway, make her a very, very naughty beekeeper********
- You’re good enough and you have the skills. Even if you don’t get 100% there everyone will still think you did and it will be amazing.monospaced
- Thank you, guys! Just baked one pie today as it has to cool down.SimonFFM

I'm done burning my bbq. I'm roasting a chicken using some metal sheets and refractory bricks to cover the holes.
Tomorrow I've to go to a blacksmith friend to hack it, LOL

@SimonFFM - I was thinking of you the other day (steady!) - I was trying to teach my daughter to cycle in the park and there was a 'mid-thirty something' tall guy learning to skateboard with his generously indulgent partner somehow entirely restraining what I would've assumed would be an overwhelming desire to drop to the floor laughing.
He looked like an '80s middle class kid with their first skateboard - one of those weird-shaped ones that I don't think real skaters ever used, and wearing a full battle armour of kneepads, shinpads, elbowpads and helmet, none of which matched his otherwise very polite attire.
I passed at one point and overheard his partner offering to gently push him along a bit as he was struggling to achieve anything otherwise. It was very sweet. If anything, I'm kind of in awe about how little he gave a fuck.

- : >milfhunter
- No it doesn't need a face, but I put eyes on the walnut because it looked like a lion. I have a different shape now, see next post.stewart
- I see the struggle. There's a very thin line between nutmeg / brain / nutmeg / nut. Nice job!maquito
- I like this one.pango
- stewart5
This is the walnut now.
No more cute lion.
- I would add a clit to the book spine to make it look more organic.
But don't listen to me. It's great!palimpsest - it's very well done.
Congrats!maquito - I once started an exercise to make bbq (asado) icons: chorizo, meat, ribs, charcoal, steak, etc. Never finished.maquito
- The center needs more length for me. Bringing the top middle curve up 4 notches/squares should do it.robthelad
- Actually looking at my own walnuts, you got it spot on.robthelad
- It's a spot on walnut... But somehow I'm not a fan of the gap. Also I can't believe Im thinking that.pango
- once you see the fanny, you can't unsee it.shapesalad
- Yeah I've drawn a lot of muffs yesterday before it became a lion and now a walnut. Me and my wife had a good laugh about it.stewart
- Next time post it without telling us what it is, and let us guessdrgs
- butterfly? cauliflower? in all fairness, a walnut is damn hard to pull off. Good job!Krassy
- I agree with @palim, it needs an upper clit. A +clit, as it were. The walnut has a bit of a turtle head on top, right? Maybe a fupa? Since we're co-relating?canoe
- Does it need to be suitable for children?SlashPeckham
- I would add a clit to the book spine to make it look more organic.

Furloughed from my job during the pandemic. Worried about what could happen, I watched and read doom and gloom while massively diving into the bottle.
At the end, I was drinking 1.75L of vodka every 2 days.
June 1, 2020 I quit cold turkey. 3 years later, my liver gave me a high five when I woke up this morning. lol
- Good work buddy. I've been there, but not with vodka. Hope the light is still shining bright for you thanks for sharing.Ianbolton
- Crikey, that was like 30+ Units a day?
Well done! Going Cold Turkey must've been a fucker :\Nairn - was it grey goose or burnett's? because that mattersimbecile
- Cheers dude!milfhunter
- What's a liver high five like?pango
- Congrats!! A change for better, sureOBBTKN
- Congrats! Got any tips?scarabin
- Well done. Personally I have never bought vodka before, or tried it beside vodka orange or something.shapesalad
- wtf shape really never drink vodka? So weirdmonospaced
- Thanks all :) Yeah, cold turkey was tough, got lucky no bad withdrawals besides a few sleepless nights. It was New Amsterdam vodka lol.Akagiyama
- No real tips, I did it because I was going back to work and if I didn't stop I'd probably be dead in a few months and I had my dad to take care of.Akagiyama
- A liver high-five is kinda stinky, wet and sloppy. So, like dating catpower.Akagiyama
- Light still shining :) Next up, trying to un-fat my ass. Food is my next vice to tackle after quitting smoking and the bottle.Akagiyama
- Congrats! I have a very similar story. 18mo sober. Cold turkey. Went to ER for withdrawals. Not a good time, but glad it's over.BonSeff
- vodka is too easy - case in point - high five on the sobriety check in!canoe

Our house is infested with ants again but this time it's different.
In the past they would form paths to food areas to gather stuff.now they hang around in groups of 5 or 6.
They bring their heads together like they are having a meeting and form a circle, in places that they have not much chance for food. Like couches or empty shelves of the kitchen.
What are they talking about? or planning?
2-3 weeks ago the house was full of flying ones. Queens I suppose? So many, but I couldn't find where they came from.
We don't poison them and we tried all the natural methods. Something esoteric going on.
- Robotic micro drones with AI? We’re fucked_niko
- muhahaha ants don't live where i live. >:)pango
- I kill 'em w/ ant bait
we got the fuckers that biteYakuZoku - Poison them ffs. Terro isn’t toxic to people anyway.monospaced
- Moved on top of an anti hill a few years back. First year was bad until we figured it out. Spray perimeter foundation with permethrin in spring. No more ants.monNom
- We use something from Bayer. It's called "Matón" in Spain. Zero problems with ants in 20 years.OBBTKN
- This one hack will solve all your ant problems: get a pet anteater.shapesalad

- We have our entire yard sprayed with permethrin. I guarantee, no more ants :)
It's great.ETM - Permethrin is classified by the EPA as a likely human carcinogen when ingested.shapesalad
- The excretion of permethrin in breastmilk is unknown, and it is recommended that breastfeeding be temporarily discontinuedshapesalad
- They soak clothing in permethrin in the America. Can't be that bad, right?
https://en.wikipedia…
Apparently it's highly toxic to cats.monNom - I wouldn't soak my whole yard in it, but a perimeter right on the foundation wall seems effective with little opportunity for accidental contact.monNom
- Sprinkle diatomaceous earth around doorways and drain pipes and such.i_monk
- Listen to whatthefunk. Put a few Terros around, and they will take the poison back to the hive. D-earth also gets dragged back and kills them all.garbage

“The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation' — this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats.”
When you read the entire quote, you see it applies much more to the religious right’s attack on homosexuality in the name of “god”, not the defense of those attacks.
Yes Gnash, you are an idiot for attempting to use a quote out of context.
“Crusade” and “righteous” should have been contextual clues, plus the general fact that agnostic Aldous was against the church.
Alas, you intentionally chose bigot instead of ally.
Idiot.
