  • One time I was playing modded Skyrim when it froze/crashed at the loading screen

    So I summon task manager, it hides behind the frozen game. I alt+tab and start blind keying to Skyrim to end it, been here hundreds of times, but nothing happens and the Skyrim world music STARTS???!!!

    ALT+TAB to see TM and Skyrim both reporting non-responsive. Tab to Skyrim and press w, clearly hear character moving and reacting to my input

    Try again to end process via ALT+F4, No dice. Try via TM, still unresponsive

    I had to reboot my PC with a hard power button press that time and I still don’t fully understand what the FUCK happened








  • They could have a community center or a library. Sure funds are hard to come by but what kind of political party would even consider that?

    Funny enough here in the rural parts of CA I’ve seen Raleys and Holiday Markets putting in large community areas with amenities like cheap (sometimes free) printers, office space, children’s areas, etc.

    They’re not perfect or anything but its wild to see capitalist behemoths pull off something actually close to what the ideal would be, even if it’s likely to manipulate people somehow

    Make it law that communities with a dollar general or fuck it any grocery store we all have to eat have a community center of halfway decent quality in it like those places have done willingly and you’ll have an improvement, guaranteed


  • When I worked at subway… Fuck me 10 years ago this month…

    We pulled them nipples and the inserts off every night and rinsed them in hot water, then left em overnight in sanitizer solution, and I (being 6’4") had to clean the ice holder every 2 weeks to a month, never got told bad in there thanks to that

    There was a picture our boss would show you of what happens when you don’t that convinced everybody to clean it religiously. We got free drinks from the machine, after all, we’d only be killing ourselves faster with that shit being dirty




  • This woman died only because she was honest with her doctor about her alcohol use

    No, and it even says so in the article

    She quit about 5 months before her death when transplants require 6-12 months of sobriety. She was drinking regularly with the fucked up liver before that diagnosis, and liver damage isn’t something that just suddenly appears.

    She kept drinking despite what would have been intense cramping pain and a slow death, thats why she was denied (addiction) and ultimately died

    Note that the article says her partner was a compatible donor but the system refused to accept him because she used alcohol

    And as the article also says it’s incredibly dangerous for someone to get a live-donor transplant when they’re in bad shape like she was, as failure of that means they’ll need to let her die on-table or transplant a good dead one into her (which she was denied for, due to her drinking)

    It’s sad, but this woman died to alcohol abuse, pure and simple
