Said it before and I’ll say it again: if Cascadia ever looks like it’s gonna become a thing I’ll drive myself there and be homeless rather than live in the US with a weakened and even more right wing Senate and house.

Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you bring to an adult show and tell?3·1 year agoHey, sorry I haven’t replied. I switched to a different account (@dharmacurious@slrpnk.net) and haven’t checked this one.
I’ve been doing a lot of sewing. Mainly dog toys and pillows for making life a little more comfy :)
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Simple Living@lemmy.ml•What if public libraries...English8·2 years agoMe. I would love to be a third shift librarian.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto memes@lemmy.world•The perk is actually kind of a downgrade81·2 years agoI’m not gonna lie, I straight up love taco bell. I avoided it for years and years because of the stereotype about it making you sick or being cheap and gross. Then I was out a few years ago and had 2 dollars in change and an empty belly. That shit was good and no stomach upset. It’s now my go to fast food, especially considering it’s easy as hell to get veggie options.
Also, gas/bloat is not specific to taco bell, it’s fucking beans. Eat anything with beans and you’re gonna get gassy. Not directed specifically at you, just anyone who needs to hear this.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Science Memes@mander.xyz•This is at Jorvik Viking Center.English10·2 years agoGenerally, you should use a cloth tape measure to measure dick. There are instructions online if you look.
Also, 8 inches to the hilt is often not pleasant, so work with your partner and learn how deep your sigmoid colon is, and take it slow. Big ol’ dick slamming into a wall is not fun unless you are very particularly into it.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Science Memes@mander.xyz•I have attempted science.English2·2 years agoThanks! That dust on the floor I’m guessing is basically poison, lye and the ashes from other offerings. That’s wild.
Is there a verse specific to when life begins? I’ve read that it’s upon drawing breath, but that’s the part I haven’t been able to find.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Science Memes@mander.xyz•This is at Jorvik Viking Center.English38·2 years agoI imagine it was probably larger before it was… Dried out.
Also, 8 inches by 2 inches is pretty fucking large. I say this as someone who has had 8 inches back there.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Science Memes@mander.xyz•I have attempted science.English4·2 years agoOoh, you don’t happen to know a verse for this, do you? I’ve heard this before and tried to Google it, but my Google fu is lacking and I just end up finding right wing nut job websites.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websitetoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•I can't unsee it nowEnglish5·2 years ago… DAMMIT
Dharma Curious@startrek.websitetoFrugal@lemmy.world•What are some things that used to be expensive, but which no longer are?English81·2 years agoNot too terribly long ago, clothing was super expensive. Like, make a dress from burlap or old feed sacks instead of buying something expensive. Some companies that sold feed and seed would print floral patterns on the sacks because they knew customers would turn the old sacks into clothing for their children.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websitetoFrugal@lemmy.world•What are some things that used to be expensive, but which no longer are?English1·2 years agoI’ve never thought about VR for fitness. I have a VR that I never use. Any suggestions on an app that isn’t expensive? I’m fat and trying to be not fat. Lol
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first timeEnglish3·2 years agoWhen you say export, is there a tool for that for, like, mass exporting your subs? Or do I have to manually search each one and sub again?
I ask because I’ve been meaning to switch to my alt, but I made a point of subbing to as many communities as possible to make Lemmy more fun to use for me, and good lord, it’s a lot to do.
You can probably search for security jobs on job boards, or ask anyone wearing a shitty guard uniform if they’re hiring. If it’s the same there, they’re always hiring.
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•So this is what my upstairs neighbor has been doing all morning11·2 years agoImagine if it just gets a leak in the head and you don’t realize. Queef/fart from hell afterwards.
Which one do we get the eyes from?
Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where is a good place to move to?131·2 years agoDon’t forget the discrimination and frequent unreported assaults on queer folks and people of color!
Tennessee: The volunteer (to give up any reasonable expectation at a decent quality of life) state!
This was going to be my suggestion. But even day time is good for this. I did security for 12 years. The vast majority of jobs are sitting on your ass watching movies on your phone. Couple tips if you go the security route:
Security is different in each US state (if you’re in another country this whole thing is gonna be meaningless). In some states it requires a 40 hour course, in others a 10 minute training class. it varies widely, find out what your states guidelines are.
If you get certed for security, you’ll never want for a shitty, low paying job. If you get fired, there’s another job around the corner. But, contracts change a lot, so don’t get too attached to any one post.
Gate guard is primo. You normally get a shack, you’re normally alone, and you normally deal with people only during shift changes. That means 6 hours of an 8 hour shift are totally yours.
Hospital security SUCKS.
If you need extra cash, concerts and other events pay well, and you get to listen to live music for free.
If you live anywhere with Weather™ put a change of clothes, food, sleeping bag and other gear in your car. I once got stuck on a post, snowed in, for 4 days.
Keep shit in your car in general. A steam deck is awesome, a switch is good.
If you’re on a post with another person, like 2 guards in a tiny shack for 8 hours, make sure you’re upfront about if you’re an intro/extrovert. Most guards have been doing it for long enough that they truly don’t care if you don’t wanna speak at all in 8 hours, they just wanna know up front where their plans should be. Nothing more irritating than thinking you’re gonna have a friend for a day and end up bored because you didn’t bring your stuff with you (which is why you should keep it in your car), or thinking you’re going to have a day to catch up on school/video games/shows and you can’t get 5 minutes to yourself because the other guard won’t STFU
You are not a cop. Don’t act like a cop. You aren’t even Paul blart. You’re a person in a uniform made of old trash bags whose whole job is to get an insurance discount for the company you’re posted at
The guard shack almost never has cameras, and for some reason, people on tinder/Grindr are freaking wild about hooking up in a guard shack
ETA: only thing better than gate guard is posts where they want you to park your own car and sit in it for your shift. You just sit in your car all day/night. Which means your own sound system, and basically everything you wanna bring with you at your fingertips. It’s awesome.
Also, midsize semi local security companies are better. Securitas and similar companies are kinda shitty, and the really small ones are always, like, weirdly militant. If you happen to be in Tennessee or Virginia I can probably hook you up with a company that’ll get you a good post.

Y’all need to stop offering me this, I’m gonna take one of you up on it. I want out of the south :(
