Banning nonny isn't the issue


Will you guys just talk to him? Yes he can be intense, but this can't continue and he is usually calm when you talk to their emotions. Is nonny a girl? How old are they?

 No.1199730

It is the position of the moderation staff that Nonny has been given multiple chances and much leniency under which to improve his behavior and respect the rules of this site. He was recently given one final chance to show that he could change, on the grounds that he voluntarily take at least a month break from the site, which he immediately proceeded to not do. As such we have decided that he is permanently banned, and all posts hereby determined to be from Nonny will be deleted and the IP banned permanently.

"LA is easily radicalized because the abstraction of its weakly held bis-allylic hydrogens leads to the formation of an exceptionally stable pentadienyl radical, stabilized by extensive resonance delocalization over five carbon atoms. This greatly reduces the activation energy for the initiation step of lipid peroxidation."

I've been feeling nostalgic, and I was hoping to dip in and chat for a day or two.

This is a typical icebreaker thread. I might not check in for a little while, because it's pretty late here, but I've got the day off tomorrow.

Post your top 5 books, and maybe a reason why they're in your top 5. And if you'd like, just stop in and say hi.

1. Okay wow this is actually a hard decision. I'm gonna put here: The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents. My all time favorite children's book. Dark, gritty, uplifting and intelligent. I cried, I yelled in disbelief, I felt sad when it was over. A group of newly sapient rats have to deal with the realities of a world in which they can suddenly plan ahead and foresse consequences. Where death used to mean very little, even losing a single member of the group becomes a cause for concern. Pratchett explores themes of anger, grief and the meaning of life from the beautiful lens of rat society. Which is very cute, but also so sad.

2. Happiness by Matthieu Ricard - A lovely look at what makes humans happy, with practical guides to try and increase happiness. No single book has contributed more to my wellbeing.

3. With each and Every Breath by Thanissaro Bhikkhu - A really interesting collection of buddhist meditation techniques and explanations for how they work. Both this book and Happiness are written from a relatively western perspective. I use these techniques all the time when stretching or meditating.

4. A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers. A fun and queer science fiction novel about an artificial ship intelligence that is transplanted against her will into a body and has to adjust to life on the surface of a planet, instead of life in a ship's computer. A heartrending tale that tackles themes of neurodivergence and queer love. I find it to be unbelievably poignant and accessible. It shocked me when what I thought was a frivolous and lighthearted book spoke to such a deep part of me.

5. I thought I had to include one book that wasn't frivolous, so I'm going to say The Sage Handbook of Counselling Psychology. Contributed to by my favorite professor at Uni, Mr. Colin Feltham. It's a handy guide that I use all the time. It's very well written, and gives a good overview of the various types of therapy

You got to ask Noelle probably.

But apparently something about a house that has non-Euclidean properties and things get weird.

A couple years ago, my_house.wad got popular as a doom mod and I have heard people refer to House of Leaves as an inspiration.

PSA from Claude: Sneaking up behind a horse and slapping its butt is extremely dangerous. Horses can kick with tremendous force (up to 2,000 pounds per square inch) and this could easily result in serious injury or death.

well, i assume he means they look cool because  the one on the top-left looks like a literal penis, and the one on the top-right looks like a literal vagina; he probably thinks the ones on the bottom look goofy because we have one that looks like a badly-failed suicide attempt and another that looks like an overprotective neurotic parent

i.e.: gamefreak apparently thinks sex is cool while the latter should be made fun of -- either that or they are being meta and think it's funny that they can make characters like this and nopony seems to notice (or perhaps care). i.e.: see grape commercial which everypony should have seen by now

I don't earn enough to save up for anything. Lately, I reach the red in the lash couple of days on the month more often than I used to, despite no changes in lifestyle.

Also, unless I make more than what I get in welfare, it's literally just subtracted from what I get paid. So I can work as much as I fucking like and get nothing out of it if I don't somehow magically find "enough" work on the regular.

I don't want to make it political.
But it's why I absolutely despise the current narrative to cut benefits from unemployed people, because they "just get paid to be lazy so they don't want to work".

Take it to a place where people have good access to stable jobs that pay a bit more than the beare minimum and get a road for people to get to those jobs easily.

As long as that is not possible, lay off on scrutinizing the unemployed.

Stop the entire bs on how people can get a job if they really wanted to work.

Here, `pd` is an alias (nickname) for the pandas library.  When you write `import pandas as pd`, you're importing the pandas library and giving it the shorter name `pd` so you don't have to type out "pandas" every time you want to use it.

Pandas is a powerful data manipulation and analysis library for Python, commonly used for working with structured data like CSV files, Excel spreadsheets, and databases.

Hyenas are feliforms (“cat-like carnivorans”), but foxes are caniforms (“dog-like carnivorans”).

Do you have something you dream to achieve or become?

What steps have you taken towards that goal? Have you done something today? last week? last month?

what is something that would help make a big step towards that thing for you? (aside from a lot of money cause i feel that is pretty standard)

What is something small that you can do in this moment that will take you that much further? feel free to share it if you want to ^_^

I'm curious as to what people are trying to bring into their own lives! and may you all have a wonderful day/night <3

Well I guess it's not really called tree webbing. That's just what I call it. It's more commonly called tree netting, and it's where you take some rope (a lot of rope) and you build what basically looks like a human made spider web. In a tree. And it looks really cool.
