Makes sense, thank you

Why?

We’re doughnuts - Michael Stevens

I’m sorry, could you explain your post? I’m struggling to understand

It’s hopeless isn’t it? We complain about destroying the planet and being a horrible species, but both you and I are part of the problem.

Indulgence is selfish and being selfish is the reason humans have gotten to this point. But everyone’s going to be selfish, so why shouldn’t I be? There’s no hope of the world recovering. Might as well have a metaphorical doomsday party.

I hope I can have a peaceful death. One without horrible pain and fear leading up to it. Killing myself seems like the best way for that. Instead of dying slowly from disease, I can shoot myself and be gone before the pain starts. But again, the fear of death is so horrible… No matter how much I think about the fact that it’s just nothingness, it’s still terrifying. Before I was born I experienced nothingness, and it was fine. Returning to nothingness would be fine. But I’m so scared despite that

Sorry that you’ve been through so much

Aw cool, so does that mean maps of the world are stereographic projections?

Dang

PetroDragonic Apocalypse incoming

It’s nice to get replies, no matter when or where :) Thank you

That’s a really fascinating idea

I would really like to find out more about this new research, though I don’t really have the knowledge to figure out how it all works. Hoping Dr. Becky will weigh in at some point!

Internet history is so much more interesting than the history you find in schools

I saw a photo of a chemical burn victim on r/eyeblech. The story goes that this guy cheated on his wife, and his wife found out. So she poured acid on his crotch. The acid had burned his scrotum away, but the balls themselves were still relatively intact. Each was just hanging from it’s respective tendril and resting against the burns on his legs.

That was the worst I’ve seen on a gore level. But I’ve seen some things that are worse on an emotional level.

Back when I was badly suicidal few years back, I went looking for suicide videos to get a more grounded understanding of what it’s like. I found a site with a lot of them. Won’t be giving out the name, cause you shouldn’t look for shit like this.

I remember seeing one of an Indian guy jumping from a high roof. He didn’t really move much in midair, he looked stiff and only squirmed a bit. When he landed it was just a relatively quiet thud and a crunch. He bounced once off the dirt. That one stuck with me the most.

Another that really got me was of an Asian who’d jumped onto train tracks. The train had cut his legs off, but he was still alive. In too much shock to do anything but lie there and look around at the people around him.

Then there’s the guy who got his head chopped off with a machete.

Remnants of a suicide bomber splattered across a street.

Then those videos on YouTube, mostly just audio. The brick and windshield. The girl calling the police because her brother shot himself. The audio ones comfort me in a way, but at first they really unsettled me.

Come to think of it, I’ve seen far to many of these… I definitely saw them at way too young an age

Wait, does kbin.social remove exif data automatically?

Damn you, now I’ve lost the game

Yeah it is. I still find it funny though

Again, someone needs to recreate r/distressingmemes over here

What would happen if that insulating barrier broke? Would the battery explode or just heat up or something?

So in an AC current the electrons are just jiggling back and forth? How far do they move through a wire, I’d imagine they jump like a few meters back and forth if it’s only 50/60 times per second.
