You can use it to pay a medieval plague doctor that will give you leech therapy. They will need to place the leeches at the base of your cylinder as well as any free hanging olive shaped objects attached to the cylinder to shrink it so your homemade fleshlight falls off-I mean so the m&m tube- I mean the Manny the mammoth toy falls off your dick-I mean ohhhh you touch my tra-la-la

At this point, the show is based on the 1st novella only.

I just finished a re-read and I didn’t get a sense that secunits had an agender appearance, this was after Martha Wells asked online to find out where a bunch of people got the idea that Murderbot was femme-androgynous so it was top of mind to look for in the books.

My general head cannon for the discrepancies especially with the additions is that the books are written by Murderbot as a record and it has admitted to being an unreliable narrator including glossing over things that it’s not interested in or doesn’t understand the value of. The show is more of a third-person perspective so it’s entirely possible some of what we are seeing was those moments that Murderbot didn’t see fit to include.

I can temp ban you from !books@lemmy.world if you really want.

Too lazy this morning to make this into the appropriate meme. Sorry, you’ll have to use your imagination.

Married 5 years? Not sure what to get? Try a set new set of knives. A set of knives: the traditional way to say “we’re still doing this.” Display a new set of knives in the block on the counter. Touch them. Feel their weight. You will certainly not regret giving a new set of knives.

I still have some printer-compatible overhead transparency sheets I bought over 20 years ago in with our specialty printer paper.

If you whittled a device to clean stuck items from your teeth out of a penis bone and gave it to someone as a surprise gift, would that make it an Unsolicited Dick Pic?

The lull after the spike could just as likely show a drop off in bot accounts active during the US election. But that’s immaterial because growth is not the same as success.

As long as it’s got an active returning user base that gets value from the product and is able to curate their own experience, it’s able to sustain itself based on the money it has/gains, people are building new tools to make it more engaging, and it’s not being taken over by undesirable actors so that active user base starts to look at another solution, and sites increasingly see Bluesky as a driver of traffic to their websites, it think that would qualify it as a objective success.

If you have a different metric, please feel free to share it.

Is this a necromancy guide?

Based on the chart that they are referencing, while the monthly uniques is lower than the spike, it’s still higher than the previous plateau.

Spikes are moments in time and less important than a sustained use which still shows growth.

I don’t expect other people to understand this but I do expect you to understand this. We started this journey together.

When you’re sliding into first and you feel something burst…

Daddy did say, “Stay away from Juliet”…

This is all half remembered from Reddit…

If I recall correctly there was an old subreddit 195 that was named for the address numbers of some dorm or other housing a college campus to share memes and stuff with each other. It was left of center but eventually devolved out of control and started to get more mean. 196 was created as an offshoot to migrate to after 195 became a cesspit, part of the rules of 196 was you had to post a picture before leaving (maybe?). It was taken over by leftists after a while and swung more towards a ml/tankie bent.

Seems a little Rude, Barb to hoard your rhubarb.

My voice is my passport, verify me.

Not quite the same, but my favorite:

This is why I’ve started reading one book, listening to a different audio book in my right earbud and streaming someone doing a YouTube read a loud in the other Earbud. Burning through that TBR…
