To quote the words of the Behind the Bastards podcast, I think you should make it absolutely priority #1 to get your condition treated and prevent yourself from committing sex crimes, as in, it should be a slightly higher priority than breathing

Ex-Catholic here, standard response where I'm from would be "No, our God is the only god and trying to contact any spirits beside the Holy Spirit just opens you up to all the evil out there".

My understanding is that Abrahamic religions are universally monotheistic and have been since the Babylonian Exile got rid of the henotheistic aspect of Yahwism. Expect to get a lot of pretty convoluted reasoning if you ask a Catholic whether having three persons in the trinity is the same thing as polytheism.

I'm not a comic book lore guy by any means, but the few times I attempted to look up Cosmic Armor Superman he seemed like the biggest accomplishment of the absurd power creep stuff DC seems to enjoy. Wiki entries for this fella use some pretty intense language.

permanent brain damage from sleep deprivation, huge new fear unlocked. tyvm for the info

 

I'm assuming that if I lose two hours of sleep for five non-consecutive days that I won't have to sleep for ten hours straight in addition to the eight-ish I'd normally be asleep for. How well does the body keep track of this stuff? How much will it forgive?

Bear with me as I'm not thinking super clearly from the caffeine crash and messed-up sleep

They're talking about application launchers for Android devices, the same category of system component that the Start Menu in Windows and the big app grid in OSX are. You can change your application launcher pretty easily on Android and some Linux systems.

I got stoned in VRChat for the first time, not too long after getting my first VR headset. As a furry who's very interested in screwing with my sense of self, this was a really big deal to me in a way I can't easily explain.

  • NOT mentioned in Alfred Hitchcock (Part 2) as a possible effect of a prank involving laxatives, he could have said it if he wanted to

  • NOT mentioned in Scott Adams (Part 2) as the effect of eating a Dilburrito, but he sounded like he was getting real close to using those words

The image only contains consenting adults who look very happy to be with each other (the perspective on the muzzles could use a little work though), so no, not very problematic. It is problematic if you're making an active effort to stop browsing porn and you still got far enough for your web browser to load that text.

It's meant to roughly gauge how clearly you picture things in your mind's eye by asking you which apple you see when prompted to imagine one. #5 references the lack of a mind's eye in people with Aphantasia (coincidentally this Wikipedia article has this same chart as a header image)
