Hey, thanks for the advice. If I have some free time and spare gumption, I’ll definitely give it a go. If that happens, I’ll let you know what comes of it.

Not op, I got a free Ender 3 from a frustrated co-worker, and am now the frustrated co-worker. I’ve tried getting a new glass print surface, tried using glue sticks, tried changing print temps and speeds, tried levelling and re-levelling and re-levelling the bed, but I just can’t get the print to stick for love or money. It’s now been re-homed to the garage, as a parking obstacle for my bicycle.

Tbf, the Europeans have some pretty fucked cryptid lore, it’s just that they’re more chaotic neutral and less chaotic vengeance than the American variety. My favorite american cryptid is an old one you don’t hear much of anymore, and was born from Pacific NorthWest loggers: the Hide Behind. Basically, this mf stalks your shit and will always duck behind a tree when you turn to look at it; it’s fast enough to never be seen clearly, but you can just catch glimpses of it if you’re fast/lucky. Eventually, it catches and eats unwitting loggers who let it sneak up on them.

Edit: I also like the deer stories. One of my all time favs was a free text about a deer stumbling up the street very clearly saying “BEEP BEEP BEEP” like a car being unlocked, followed by “Honey, I’m home!” over and over. That was the whole story, just a weird fucking deer stumbling up the street and talking to itself. 10/10 would gladly read again.

Those tech bros are up to something

I wonder if the investors are happy yet

I work near Yosemite, we don’t need one extra body there in the summer at all.

I tend to agree with you, nature should be experienced as-is, imo. I just don’t think this is that terrible.

This doesn’t seem all that awful to me. The waterfall isn’t fake, it’s just something they do in the dry season so visitors don’t feel like they wasted a trip. It’s not the choice I would make if I were running the park, but it doesn’t seem that bad to me.

I’m starting to think it’s about time we had some meaningful consequences for these bastards, and I don’t mean the journalists.

Calm down, satan

What’s a pirate’s favorite letter?

I don’t have one, but the pirate one is pretty good

What’s a pirate’s favorite letter?

I was alive and in the US then, too. I very plainly remember the nationalist fervor that the US was wrapped up in at the time; I remember the Dixie Chicks getting cancelled before cancelling was a thing because they called Bush out. Nothing exists in a void, history is ALL context.

Look, in a week, I’ll be drinking water, downloading memes, and going to work, not thinking about freedom fries. If you want to still be thinking about this shit by then, don’t let me get in the way of a good time.

Yep

It’s the internet, take a breath. I mean that seriously; you don’t have to like me, idgaf, but it’s not worth getting worked up about. You might benefit from taking a break, maybe drink some water or something.

No need to respond, I concede, you won the argument. Just take some time and reflect on the good things you’ve got.

Thanks for this insightful response. It’s clear I need to do more reading on this.

Okay, bud. I re-read and I didn’t see what you were talking about about, so I really think there’s been some kind of misunderstanding. But okay.

Not my jokes, and I don’t think it’s funny. You might want to re-read my post, I certainly wasn’t celebrating the attitude that spawned freedom fries.

Yep. Dunno what else to say, we’re absolutely responsible.
