This is an example of the terrifying extreme storms scientists have been expecting

No one at NOAA was looking specifically for Beryl.

I wonder if he lets Harlan refer to him as “boy.”

This is actually funny if done in a Foghorn Leghorn voice.

Which is particularly acute in the case of Argentina.

I’ve done the same and feel the same way. I’m still active on Reddit because I want to be an active part of helping people who have questions. I don’t feel the larger Lemmy community wants that so much as to complain about things. I certainly have things to complain about in life, but I don’t feel it’s healthy for me to engage with spaces that are going to cause more issues than they resolve.

And you would be … 🤣

I do kid. I enjoy that we have the options to dive into the deep end elsewhere or just hang out in a space where bullshit is quickly quashed. I’m here for discussion and to be active in ensuring this is a place I never find myself regretting joining.

Is it what everyone wants? Of course not, but that was never the intent of Beehaw to my knowledge. I’m glad you’re happy here and hope you continue to feel that way. And, you know what? Fuck anyone who tells you not to be happy with what you have. This is not Beehaw- or Lemmy-specific, this is life. Never let anyone else bring you down for what you’re comfortable with.

Has there ever been a left-wing austerity programme? This is anti-labour bullshit every fucking time.

A bit late to the party, but the FDA panel is a recommendation body, not the FDA itself. FDA can overrule this, but as I said, that’s a fraught choice.

A year ago was a weird time, given we were dealing with the Reddit fallout that wildly inflated engagement, with people trying to get a feel for the platform (both Lemmy in general and Beehaw).

I tend to use !chat for things that aren’t articles. Not that that has to happen, it’s just how the communities I’m active in have evolved.

Egregious clickbait hed. I don’t care the source, “than you might think” works psychologically on, well, more levels than you might think.

Throughout this election, and honestly, past it wouldn’t be bad, wherever you are in the world, this phrase should be a red flag that you’ve run headlong into bullshit.

That aside, Nature, are you OK? Journal articles tend to have as theses shit that isn’t somehow both obvious and vacuously true then not backed up by the passive voice, the gold standard for scientific literature. “The beaker was observed …”

Bold statement of American values, Nikki. Surely, this will improve international respect for the U.S.

Dehumanization is a central pillar of several playbooks. None ends well.

Appreciate the sourcing. As with so many things, the original is better.

Colour me confused. I was inviting conversation about it because I found it interesting and felt conflicted about whether I agreed.

Fucking amazing. First burn, work goes well. I’m actually happy in my own skin after decades of crippling depression.

This is such an amazingly beautiful offer that I’m not sure how to respond. Thank you for bringing the burn spirit into the real world … I’m still working on integrating my experience and know I won’t ever be the same person I was last week, but it’s such a massive shift that I want to take my time to understand who I now am and the extent to which some of my mental struggles will be different.

And thank you for the kind words about my writing. It means so much to me that what I enjoy doing can bring others joy.

I’m not entirely mobile yet … watch this space. What do tickets run for that?

Fixed the hed. Archive link should be viewable.

I’m not really aware of anyone still shooting porn after 15 years outside of HKJ, and if I’m being honest, I’m not entirely sure she was active yet … it was a different time.

It was also damn near impossible to monetize back then (self-host, find payment processor overseas that took 30% minimum, self-advertise), especially anything outside of male-centric boring shit you’ve seen a thousand times, which led to more of a discovery process and a tighter-knit community for those shooting or appearing in kink.

I’m glad she’s doing OK after just an event, but I never found myself wondering why she didn’t post anymore.

I’m aware of the cliche. What is why I drove from Portland to Tsawwassen on Thanksgiving night 1999 to catch the ferry over to Vic and bring my Canadian girlfriend down for the rest of the weekend.

I just thought that would be the end of it.

She felt it was preferable to still having anything tying her to her father. For valid reasons.

The collar is just inexcusable. I hope for the sake of my neck that it’s gotten a bit duller over the years.
