    I mean, you say that, but I’ve actually had a moment of “Wait, is this what the steak people are on about?” with a vegan product before.

    Basically, there’s these texturized soy chunks, which come dry in the package and then you cook them to rehydrate them before you fry them. And yeah, if you take them out of the water too early, they’re chewy AF, and if you’re too late, they become quite spongy…


  • Yeah, I’m never quite sure how I feel about Mario. It’s cool that it isn’t some bog-standard fantasy setting and it’s cool that it doesn’t take itself too serious, but it’s also really weird at times.

    Someone will immediately correct me on this, but I don’t think there’s been cats in the Mario universe, when they suddenly introduced Mario in a furry cat suit, for example.
    Does Mario even know what cats look like? Or does he canonically live in the real world and only occasionally takes trips into the land of shrooms?

    Right, yeah, I am talking about purely cosmetic uses. There’s always a risk associated with a botox injection, but if it can heal something or mitigate a different risk, it may be worth it.

    And botox is injected at a dosage where it is toxic. That’s how it paralyzes the muscles. If it’s accidentally injected into a vein or at somewhat too high of a dosage, you can have complications like botulism or death.



  • Honestly doesn’t surprise me that they re-invited the guy, especially when he got fired. If he was there for a longer time, he’ll leave a hole which is gonna match his skillset pretty well.

    And the hiring manager isn’t the firing manager, so they won’t know who got thrown out for what reason. Their job is just to hire someone new and boy-howdy did they just find the perfect match for the opening.











  • Various countries limit painkillers to small packet sizes (e.g. 20 pills here in Germany) and pharmacies only hand them out one at a time, so you can’t overdose as easily/spontaneously, either like the person in the post did due to pain, or for suicidal purposes.
    It’s not perfect protection, as you can just go to multiple pharmacies to buy multiple packets, but yeah, you will have to actually go do that and will get told at the pharmacy that you shouldn’t take more, if you’re not aware.
