Reply to TIL that on top of the 3 matters of state that we’re all familiar with (solid, liquid, gas), there are at least 24 more, though most only exist under extreme conditions by gianthooverpig
There’s even debate on whether sand is a different state of matter. See https://youtu.be/184eP_KuXek

Reply to comment by [deleted] in I [24m] slept in the same bed as [24m] friend unknowingly in boxers and think my [24m] bf will hate me what level of detail do I give? by [deleted]
Honestly, ya.
It's clearly eating at you.
edit - I meant to add "And I would want to hear about something that was bothering my partner even if it was potentially upsetting." I don't really think this is though. The air mattress disappearing is...peculiar and might make me sort of question that person's intentions but I dunno. If your boyfriend is a mature person he'll see that as not something to be upset or concerned with you about.

I've played like a dozen shows at Gooski's and I don't care if I never go again, honestly. The owner is more than just a "Trump Supporter". He's openly homophobic as well. There used to be a disc in the jukebox labelled "f*g music"

Reply to This candy store in Vancouver leaves their empty cash register drawer on display after hours to deter break-ins. by PapaCologne
I used to work at Gamestop and when we closed we leave the register open with only the change in it, all the bills are counted and put in a safe. It's much cheaper to lose a few bucks in change then buy a new POS register drawer.

I’d stop going out with them. They’re assholes. If you don’t want to go back to the same place and have someone spitting in your burger, ditch these asshats.

I feel like people who have serious mental illnesses and are asking for help aren’t generally that hard to notice. We should do more to help these people regain rational states, for the good of us all.

Reply to comment by lpnf in [WP] The mad king has gotten madder and now not a day goes by without him sending someone to the edge lands where the world just ends and falls into an endless void. One day you get sent but instead of a desolate wast land, you find a thriving community that takes full advantage of the cliff face. by cursed-being
Part 2.2! It ended up being a little long.
The ship skirted around the edge of the falls, keeping a healthy distance from the water. Nearer the top, there wouldn’t have been room to fly around behind the curtain of water, but this far down the water was nearly a quarter mile from the cliffs. There was some ambient mist, just as Baroul had said, but Gallin could still see the city right as soon as they got a viewing angle on it.
A dozen huge, flat terraces were cut into the edge of the world, one above the other, like handholds for a giant. Two of them, the sixth and seventh, were densely packed with rough stone buildings, but the rest seemed to be used for farming. There was wheat, fruits, and some crops Gallin did not recognize, although none of the fields looked particularly lush. He saw a few figures walking across the fields, and more milling about in the village terraces. In the center of each terrace, he saw a small entrance that seemed to lead deeper into the earth, except for the sixth and seventh, which each had a huge cave cut back into the earth. The highest terrace held huge sheets of canvas, glistening with condensation, and metal pipes led down to the lower levels. Galling supposed that this was safer than going out to the waterfall with a bucket, but it seemed unfortunate that such lengths were necessary with so much water so near.
Rickety wooden scaffolding provided access between some of the terraces, but there didn’t seem to be enough for all of them. Perhaps the caves led to stairs within the earth, or perhaps you couldn’t get around unless Baroul was willing to bring you somewhere on the barge.
“Here we are,” said Baroul. “The Free City, safe from prying eyes above. Self-sufficient! See those crops growing?” Baroul seemed energized by the sight; his more measured demeanor during the right evaporated before his excitement. “Yes, I do. They seem a little sickly.”
“Well, the light isn’t great under the falls like this. It’s perfectly edible.” “Edible. My favorite sort of food,” said Gallin, glumly. While it was remarkable that this city existed at all, it didn’t look like his sort of place. It was damp, dark, and probably filled with people who never had quite enough to eat. “We’re really going to live down here?” “Of course!” said Baroul. “You can stay as long as you like.” The prince seemed more aware of Gallin’s displeasure with his new fate. “Of course, we may not spend too much time here, considering.”
“Considering what?” asked Gallin.
“Considering that you’re going to restore me to the throne, of course,” the prince replied. “I’ll generously commute your sentence, and you can return to your old life.”
The little twinge of hope ached, particular since the prince’s plan seemed ludicrously far-fetched. “I don’t think there are enough people here to help with that, your majesty,” said Gallin.
“Oh, I know that. But there are people who will help. Your old friends up top –“
“- who know I’ve been exiled,” interjected Gallin.
“- and, of course, my new friends from the other side of the world. You can meet them once we land. I think you’ll all get along.”
As they began the final descent towards a rickety wooden dock on the sixth terrace, Gallin weighed a lifetime living in these damp stone houses against the likelihood of being executed on the surface after the prince’s plan failed.
“Sure,” he said. “Let’s meet them.”

Did she just get married or just have a wedding. Two different things these days. Lots of people want the wedding, but don’t remember that it comes with a marriage attached.

Reply to comment by SilasCrane in [WP] A demon performs a reverse “It’s a Wonderful World”—going to a man in the prime of his life and showing him that nothing would change if he didn’t exist. by RolePatrol
"That was... controversial" said the melodic voice further apart.
The demon looked back and smiled softly. "I figured He'd send someone."
"Didn't think one of the Rebels would show up to do my job." said angel, revealing themself.
"I guess I miss the good old days. I was wondering if I could do it using the tools from my new line of work." shurged the demon.
"Oh they seem to work just fine" said the angel sarcastically. "Now why did you really do that? I thought you guys loved to poke holes in rich folk like that."
"Oh we do. But I think our little friend has something to accomplish before we welcome him into our warm little hearth. Maybe shake things up, start a movement, you know. Become a leader. He is a Duke after all." With that, the demon winked and smiled mischievously before disappearing in a cloud of sulphur.

Shrek. The movies have almost nothing in common with the small children's book it's based on.
