    habibi

    I still have no idea what that means, but I get called that when I pick up my order at the Palestinian kebab shop. I just assumed it meant "bro" or "buddy" or something. I always just respond with, "thanks, brother (or other pronoun, depending on who's got my heart attack wrap in a bag)".

  • There's no way these ads work on people
  • Thordros Thordros 2d ago 100%

    As with all garbage scam ads, for time immemorial, they are garbage on purpose. Why waste your time with vaguely credulous people, when you can narrow it down to the most vulnerable and incredulous population possible?

    You don't fall for the obvious scam because you aren't the target. Your grandpa, or your neurodiverse friend, are the target.

    It really depends on how many devices you're talking about. Two is infinitely better than zero, but not ideal. If you've got several devices at several locations syncing files, I don't see how that's much worse than a cloud service. And amazon can't look at my Weiner pics that way.

  • Looking for cute masc haircut ideas
  • Thordros Thordros 6d ago 100%

    @Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net

    I got a very lovely haircut, and he told me:

    Middle of the face is neutral territory. Ears to cheeks, wrapping around the head, you should generally buzz that down pretty short. Taper the hair up and forward, but respect where natural hair parts lay. I usually get the top cut down to around a bit over an inch in the front for styling purposes, and very slightly shorter going back.

    If you are fortunate enough to have a beard, taper it down and forward, to either show off, or mask, where your jawline is. But it should present like you got a strong jaw.

    I don't know if that's helpful for your situation, but that's what my guy told me. Lebanese guy, committed anarchist, and I don't know how he reconciles that with owning a barber shop, but I cannot deny the man's talent.

    He cuts my (trans-masc) son's hair, and it looks pretty good.

    Is there an audio transcript of this interview somewhere? I've got a reading list of theory longer than [insert extremely long thing here], and I don't want to waste my precious reading time on stupid assholes.

    Maybe I'll listen to it when I'm doing more important things. Like taking a shit.

  • Thordros Thordros 6d ago 100%

    Also, if you were to take the final monologue, and put the text "THIS IS WHAT AMERICANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE" under it, it would actually become really funny.

    Imagine if those two credulous dipshits were self-aware enough to link Scientology and Mormonism to America, the place that birthed those cults.

    That would have been a hell of a film.

    I am jealous of young autistic adults

    When I was a child, autism didn't exist. Obviously it did, but it wasn't in the DSM then. It was a fringe diagnosis. I sometimes wonder what my life would be like if I'd known early on that I want to crank out spreadsheets for 8 hours a day—*for fun.* Anyway, I hope you folks get dealt a better hand than me, now that our condition is real and acknowledged.

    He had a thick beard and a sea-deep voice that sounded like the bear howl of metal geared bears scratching against each other's bared bits. His bared jaw was cut in a perfect 90° angle, almost as overbearing as his piercing eyes. His smile, when be bared his teeth—
