  • I went through this with my cat a couple months ago. Had him for 15 and a half beautiful, fuzzy years. I’m just glad that everything hit him all at once in the last couple weeks of his life so it was really obvious his time had come. I held him sleeping on my chest for the last 5 or 6 hours before it was time. Now I’m all gucked up thinking about it.

    Fuck cancer.








  • It depends on the grade of stainless actually. I’ve never run into “proprietary 30X stainless” but I have plenty of experience with 304, 308, 309, and 316. 309 can rust on you, but I’ve never seen 316 rust outside of ludicrously corrosive environments.

    I have what’s known in the industry as “magic piss fingers”. What that means is that I am a salty, sweaty man who can rust just about anything rustable simply by touching it with my bare hand. That being said, I haven’t managed to get a single speck of rust on my welded 316 hammer in 12 years of using it.








  • Excuse me while I laugh in Californian wildfires.

    The difference between us is that I am not shocked when floodzones flood, forest fires burn, and landslides slide. The only “unnatural” change in the environment is fucking people. We turn swamps into cities and then cry tragedy when they turn back into swamps. We build cities in deserts and cry that there is not enough water. We overpopulated the planet and then complain that it is killing us. We are the problem. Nature is just doing what nature has always done. The nature of Nature is change.






  • You can’t argue that 40k panders to the LGBT crowd because fuckin obviously if you’ve ever even looked at a 40k title, but you also can’t really argue that 40k isn’t at least a little sexual.

    You got ratlings, pretty much everything slaanesh, aeldari waifus, and the entire Ciaphas Cain series. And while yeah, you don’t exactly get steamy love triangles in mainline 40k lore, you also have callidus assassin’s and sisters of silence popping up all the damn time. Sex isn’t the focus (mostly. Looking at you ciaphas) but it’s certainly present in the setting.
