Their tech demo was clearing a path for a patrician lady to walk without besmirching the hem of her dress.

What kind of being are you?!

I mean, read the room.
Chiming in here.
Guanfacine was a miracle for me. I couldn’t tolerate stimulants and while the initial fatigue was significant, my focus improved significantly and quickly. Not as suddenly or dramatically as a stimulant (which I was able to take after a couple of years of guanfacine, I was in bad shape at first).
I still take a small dose as an adjunct along with a stimulant.
If a person can moderate, I would call it a bad habit and not an addiction. To me, the inability to moderate is what makes it an addiction in the first place.

Can you imagine the creation myths that would evolve in the society that developed from the survivors? There were just a handful who had survived and experienced that descent into hell. The others had blissfully slept.
meyotch@slrpnk.netto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Bad film with amazing premise and mediocre execution that you can't stop thinking about?13·1 month agoPandorum is, to me, what Passengers was trying for. The claustrophobic horror of hurting through the void, other humans being both your salvation and your tormentors, all that.
The execs ruined it to make a vehicle for some big names.
It won’t work on all people, but it will work for the right people!
I mean, if a person has the urge to juggle in public, it means they want to be seen and maybe connect with randos over it.
That’s wholesome AF

Do it anyway.
Which half is gay, top or bottom?
I will organize the poor souls into a vocal group and go on tour as The Assless Chaps, naturally.
Using the term ‘assless chaps’ infuriates me and I will not let that aggression stand, man.
All chaps are assless. Chaps with asses are pants.
Fight me.

The difference between ’right’ and ‘left’ is frequently over complicated.
What part about ‘no fucking kings’ is difficult to understand?
meyotch@slrpnk.netto Nature and Gardening@beehaw.org•Prune bamboo with a lot of missing tips?3·1 month agoSounds about ideal! Even the clumpers like to have all the room they can get. I’ve been able to get phyllostachys nigra to grow well in larger containers, giving them ample room and excellent soil prep as you describe.
Good luck! I love bamboo
meyotch@slrpnk.netto Nature and Gardening@beehaw.org•Prune bamboo with a lot of missing tips?4·1 month agoNice response. It is so strange the conventional ‘wisdom’ around bamboo. And it’s usually people with no actual experience with the plant.
I mean, you clearly mentioned they are in containers (which incidentally may be the reason the culms aren’t expanding fully, few bamboos do well in containers and balcony conditions can be very harsh). I swear people think that it will crawl out and take over your town overnight.
In cybersecurity, this is called red-hat or red-team work. Maybe the search terms will help you find what you need.
