Mothra@mander.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many people would you give 10 dollars to without question?1·6 hours agoOkay I would ask questions for any amount of money unless they tell me first. The people I feel I would easily give money are also the same people who I’d expect they tell me first why- they wouldn’t be “hey mothra got some spare 100s?”
To answer your question, I would easily give 10 to about a dozen people or so, 100 to half of them and 1k+ to only 3, and for a very good reason only. I didn’t even realize the number of people would halve.
Mothra@mander.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If death wasn't a thing what would be the most unforgivable crime?3·13 hours agoIn my opinion killing is pretty bad but there are other crimes that can be worse, so not sure what point you are trying to make
Mothra@mander.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it possible for someone to blow up your balls like a balloon if they time it right?15·2 days agoYou know, there is a community called No Stupid Questions you may want to check out
FB: no, since AGES. 5 years at least
Insta: occasionally, to chat with people mostly. Couple of times a month
Whatsapp: regularly, unfortunately. Work group chats there, clients there, friends there, I wish I could move them elsewhere
Downvote me to helk if you like but in my experience I’d mention Human Resources before Corporations and Cops
Mothra@mander.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What task would you excel in if you lived in the Stone Age?3·5 days agoI’d be a good forager, gatherer and tracker. I have a knack for identifying plants and animals and spotting signs of their presence. I’m sure with a bit of training I could become decent at trapping too but I’ve never done that.
I’d also be good at art, be that cave wall painting or figurine sculpting/carving.
Thanks for pointing to the source! That explains the colored hat as well
I’ve never seen this one before. Reapproprieted from where? I like it
I’m obviously not an expert since I’m the airhead a few comments above who wouldn’t recognize a bomb in the ground. But 80 years is plenty to cover an object. Lots of things can happen. A couple floods or rainy seasons will soften the soil. Debris will pile up and rot over it. Animals may step on it and push it even further, especially if the soil is damp.
My parents did some renovations a couple of years ago and left a large pile of old tiles and bricks in the backyard. The pile got reclaimed by grass damn fast and is half buried now. A small object over decades ? It disappears
I can’t afford that anyway… the perks of being poor
Wow I would have never thought of calling the police - I wouldn’t have recognized it as a potential explosive. I better stay away from sites that were ever bombed/mined
Mothra@mander.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are these tiny dots in eggplants (might need to zoom in)? My wife keeps finding these in most of the eggplants she cuts, and is concerned if this is something bad, or just something normal.161·7 days agoThis doesn’t look like seeds to me, but it’s also super hard to see what the eggplant tissue is like. If you didn’t mention eggplant, I would never guess what you’re holding is an eggplant. A classic cross section of the whole thing would be more useful to identify what’s going on.
Next time if you can just cut the eggplant in half, either along its length or across, and take a photo
Mothra@mander.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your opinion on manga, manwha, and manhua?2·7 days agoYou mean as terms/words or as media? I can’t say I understand if there is much of a difference between the three, as words. I use “manga”. As media, yeah, it’s cool, some manga is great, some is just mediocre. Like anything else. I’m not a fan of the genre but I really enjoyed some of its titles
Mothra@mander.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could create an additional day of the week, what would you name it and why?12·7 days agoI’d name it Someday just to mess up with people.
Okay, I don’t know if the word has a very specific meaning in contemporary military vocabulary.
All I know is that a mercenary is an umbrella term for a “warrior for hire”. It’s typically associated with having to do jobs most others don’t want to do, either because they’re very demanding physically or because they’re morally questionable. And this is where your confusion with assasins and hitmans comes in. A mercenary may also be a hitman, it depends on the context. But not necessarily. Usually mercenaries are supported by ( because they work for) either the government or some other legal entity. An assassin or hitman usually doesn’t, or at least isn’t supposed to.
In other words, a mercenary has a reputation for taking morally questionable jobs but isn’t regarded as a criminal, whereas assassins, hitmen, and evil henchmen are criminals from the get go.
I hope that helps
Never. I can’t stand the crowds and the loud music. And I don’t appreciate the crowds singing and screaming on top of the music either. I’ve been to concerts like two times in my life just because others insisted so much I joined them, and the experience was exactly what I thought it would be.
I’m just not cut for them.
I don’t think I bought band related merch ever, but I’ve seen some really cool stuff so that is something I would consider if the opportunity presented itself.
Your grandma sounds like a legend. I know for a fact mine couldn’t have touched the topic
Good on her!
Yes I remember seeing the 70s Playboy magazines for the first time in my life just a few years ago, and I loved them. As you said, they were more about erotic nudes but it was also mixed up with tasteful art, literature (not all of it erotica either) and articles on contemporary culture. I would absolutely want to buy a few issues if I ever get the chance.
Kudos to her, I don’t think my own mother would have bothered to go get books if she didn’t know how to explain things to me. I think most people’s reaction to facing something they don’t know how to do is to just avoid it, which she clearly didn’t. So yeah, cheers for progress!
Then even more to my point. What difference would it make?
