Emasculated goes a bit far but I kinda get it. It doesnt bother me if a sexual encounter starts with a toy, but “let me grab my vibrator so I can finish” is a night that ends with me feeling like I’m not good enough and probably going to bed feeling bad about myself. It’s something thats turned a few dates into one night stands for me when I told them how it made me feel and they were dismissive of my feelings
I used to be that guy. Then I realized asking eachother questions is just part of the human experience. I know we can both google it, but maybe you just wanted to talk to me instead of a computer. Maybe ill ask you something I already know or could easily google so you can feel smart and helpful answering my question. Life is nicer when you have positive interactions with people instead of searching for every minute way you could belittle them

Foreplay / longtime by Boston. The intro is the coolest thing little kid me ever heard and I will never forgive Boston for the lame meandering bullshit that is the rest of that song

e^(ix) = cos(x) + i sin(x)
That is the euler relationship. You can use that relationship to convert any expression with a trig function into an expression of exponentials and imaginary numbers. “Euler’s formula” is a good search term if you want to learn more
Shout out to the euler relationship for allowing me to forget every single trig identity I ever learned
I think milquetoast is the word you want; milktoast is phonetically correct but that spelling refers to a breakfast dish.
Kinda. The bald jd vance meme format should be having a field day with this image and my greatest regret right now is that I dont have the digital photo manipulation skills to make that a reality

Avocado toast is one of the many things disingenuous conservative media has used to blame millennials for the economic situation we grew up in. “They wouldn’t be in such poor financial situation if they stopped paying $15 for avocado toast at brunch every day”
That being said… avocado toast rocks and that is an opinion shared by all of my friends of my age lol. Personally I like mine with a fried egg and hot sauce

Aviation@lemmy.world•Almost all German pilots admit to napping during flights in union surveyEnglish
10·4 months agoI used to do design work on intra-aircraft information systems. Commercial airliners are almost entirely automated; I’d be comfortable with the pilot taking off, immediately falling asleep till just before landing, then waking up to land. Even if they are awake during the flight, 99.9% of the time the correct action for a pilot is “let autopilot cook.” Even in those 0.1% other situations, the cockpit has like 15 or 20 different systems lovingly referred to by aircrew as “bitching betty” to sound loud annoying alarms and flash bright lights at the pilots if the any part of the plane needs attention for any reason.

Afaik its a strategy to scare off predators. The general idea goes like… predators dont want to get stung --> predators less likely to eat wasps --> fly pretends to be wasp --> predator less likely to eat fly for fear of being stung. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimicry here is a Wikipedia page if you feel like reading a much better longer description written by people who know a whole shitload more about biology than I do.
