MFer got obliterated by MSWord spell check

As another commentator says, pointing that a statement is bullshit is sufficient. The burden the burden of the proof is on the shitter, for having contrary opinion

In soil science, we hand texture, where you rub the soil between two fingers and see how it responds to physical manipulation. There are a few tests: can you roll it into a worm? Does that worm break? How long of a ribbon can you make with it? You do this for each layer (horizon) and pits have a minimum of 3 horizons usually

Anyway, on large scale soil surveys, we can have hundreds to thousands of pits to do. The largest ones I’ve ever done were 1900 pits or so, thus a LOT of hand texturing, and pushing to get them all done.

To speed up this process I started texturing with both hands at the same time; each with a different horizon. Turns out I’m abi-texterous (seriously)

I thought they attributed their decline due to the introduction of rats from colonial ships. Rats ate a bunch of seeds etc. and did what invasive vertebrates do on island: destroy the ecosystem.

Fucking honestly - it’s the theme for their whole product line

Hey.

I really enjoyed your comment. It’s very well written. Nice job. That’s it; that’s all.

Idk if it’s good, but I do know that it’s extremely cool to petition the admins to defederate as soon as someone disagrees with you

Killer views

I would be surprised if they didn’t use pitfall traps with spikes. That’s how I would take down an elephant

!greentext@lemmy.ml is about as close as it gets

Yer all making dick jokes (I would be too, normally) but the real story is in the Camp Lejeune water scandal:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp_Lejeune_water_contamination

TL;DR

The Camp Lejeune water contamination scandal involves the discovery that between the 1950s and the 1980s, the water supply at the U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in North Carolina was contaminated with toxic chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), benzene, and vinyl chloride. These chemicals, primarily from leaking storage tanks, industrial waste, and a nearby dry cleaner, were linked to serious health issues such as cancer, birth defects, and other chronic conditions in veterans, their families, and civilian workers who were stationed there.

Despite evidence of contamination, it took decades for the extent of the problem to be acknowledged, leading to significant health repercussions for thousands of people. The scandal led to numerous lawsuits and the passage

Approximately 135k people were affected. The USMC knew about the problem but denied and covered it up for a long time

Lies. No one made anything off of shitcoins

Put some effort into your titles, my b’y. Sentence fragments are for the birds

Sometimes the warts on our own faces disgust us the most.

Why would you do that? Ride or die: the fuck with what others think.

I don’t know why, but this moment of self realization is the best thing in this thread.

It’s like a gingerbread man in the gingerbread house comic moment

Supremely refreshing

rolls dice

Fuck. Now I’m capital-less

The bot is fucking abrasive as all get out. I couldn’t take it and blocked the fucking thing.

Good post.

This is the crux of a lot of the counter arguments to ‘cancel culture’. Don’t get me wrong, if you’re a racist shitbag, or a pedophile, you are a terribly flawed human, but that doesn’t detract from other merits in other areas in my opinion. This may seem like a cop out, or an excuse for shitty behavior, but in my view you can be ‘Flying Squid, the Nobel Laureate in physics and Racist Cocksniffer’. Humans are very complex beings: how can we fit them into black and white categories of good and bad?

I had an emotionally volatile childhood, devoid of positive influences that were beyond reproach. People I looked up to certainly had their flaws. I quickly learned to take the best out of what they had to offer, and be mindful of their faults. If we simply discarded people who were flawed we wouldn’t have many people around us. Similarly, think about how much music came out of the 60s. Now think about how shitty a lot of those artists were, morally. Does that make their music less beautiful? No, but it does add an overtone, I suppose.
