Was actually deciding between posting here or posting on chaoticgood.
Personally, I think Satan (well, Lucifer) is the perfect embodiment of chaotic good
We’ll have to disagree on agreeing.
You’re welcome to disagree. But if you read Paradise Lost or do a little critical analysis and compare the themes of “The serpent in the Garden” with stories like Prometheus (and other fallen angel motifs), it’s pretty easy to see Lucifer/Satan as a sympathetic character, IMHO.
But then I’ll always tend to lean toward the side advocating for more knowledge over the side advocating for limiting knowledge.
Well known canonical work, Paradise Lost
Well, considering it’s a retelling of canonical works and is one of the most important literary works in the English language, I thought it relevant. After all, there’s nothing in Paradise Lost that contradicts canon, and Milton’s philosophy and theology are fairly well regarded if heterodox.
Canonicity doesn’t matter when the characters are mythical to begin with.
That’s why I demand all discussions about any mythology to take my personal fictions into account instead of the most common historical versions.
No, I haven’t shared them with anyone, and they’re clearly marked “Dreams I had Once on The Astral Plane” but if you disagree with my points that they’re relevant to a general understanding of the myths it makes you an idiot theist.
Why didn’t you just cross post to both? Fits well in both.
Crosspost for crossfit?
I know where the exit is, don’t worry.“Do you cross-fit? you can cross-fuck-off, cross-fart”
Its been eight hours, you have four upvotes, and this comment still reads like word salad to me. I’m assuming im missing something and this is a reference or an in-joke isnt it?
It was a mediocre joke.
OP posted here something that was originally on r/fit.
Another commenter suggested they cross-post somewhere else.
I just suggested that if you have a post about fit, when you cross-post it it becomes about cross-fit.
You didn’t miss anything interesting ;)Thanks for taking time out of your day to explain it for me gaael its a decent play on words! I just wasnt picking up what you were putting down today
Raw onion is good! Though I wouldn’t just eat a whole one lol
One of the best things to scoop hummus with.
Catastrophic tooting ensues
Catastrophic Tooting is my favorite Doom Ska band.
Doom Ska is the metal-punk crossover I never knew I needed.
Raw red onion is amazing in sandwiches, and I’ve eaten chopped white onion on hot dogs, and that’s pretty good, too. Just straight-uo eating an onion by itself? No.
Nobody said it wasn’t good.
watch people suffer while eating raw onions
Literally this post did
No said suffering want good. Lots of people like things that cause mild to moderate discomfort, but watching someone do something they dislike for an invalid reason seems to be the context. Lots of people like raw onion, but the consensus seems to be that few people would enjoy sitting there and simply eating an entire raw onion.
You don’t seem to understand the meaning of the word “literally.” This post figuratively said so.
Did you literally read the post?
Hi. Third party here. They’re correct: that’s literally not what literally means. Ok thanks bye.
Fourth party here: definitions are descriptive not prescriptive and vary by common usage. Due to current common usage, literally means both literally and figuratively, with the original definition slowly losing ground. So no one is correct.
True, but if you wanted to articulate the concept formerly known as “Literally”, how would you do it? I just woke up, and my brain hasn’t booted all the way to desktop yet, but I can’t immediately think of another word to fill the niche.
If everybody was jumping off a bridge, would you do that, too?
It’s cool. The Lemmy dogpile started and I’ll be buried in a figurative hole soon.
But is it a figurative burying or a meta-literal one? I mean if you really think about things entomologically and we pick apart the Latin root words of “bury” and “dogpile” we might just find that the meaning of lemmy dogpile changes completely depending on context, literally figuratively.
Language is fucked. We really need telepathically beaming abstract concepts directly into brain matter so I don’t have to crawl through linguist brainrot reply chains.
Yes.
I didnt say, “this post literally did,” i said, “literally this post did.”
Back in my day you wore them on your belt.
Only the yellow ones.
Because of the war.
I want all the context please
Thanks! I thought it was simpsons deep down but I also wasn’t sure if it may have been legit in this timeline.
Man The Simpsons used to be so funny. Still kinda is but different.
It was the style at the time
but, raw onion is just fucking good. why would you need to troll somebody into eating it?
Are you eating onion like a fuckin apple? Btw the skin has the most testo boost
Btw the skin has the most testo boost
This is misinformation.
Everyone knows that you get the biggest boost to testosterone by leaving the onions until they start to degrade; yes, this is the point when the chemicals that make you cry are strongest, but if you can hold back the tears then you get +50 testosterone.
This is disinformation. Everyone knows that you get the highest boost +100 of testosterone if you insert the raw onions in your ass daily. It’s equivalent to squatting 300 lbs.
I legit used to work with a lady who would do that. Her dad trolled her with an onion he told her was a weird apple as a kid. She loved it and just kept eating them. She was an interesting individual. In the best way.
Oh yeah and if you rub it in the arm pits you get to make both your skin and the onion testo boost stronger
I heard there was a study that said you have to rub hot chilli’s on the outside of the skin first to make it convert the T into something the body can uptake.
The chilis go in your eyes, dumbass.
no, but i do enjoy slices of onion and cheese as a snack from time to time.
I like raw onion but it doesn’t like me :(
Same, but I power through anyways
Are you allergic to alliums? Or just doesn’t sit well? I think raw onions might not be good for me, so I’m just wondering…
No idea never heard of that allergy, they just feel weird on my stomach like I want to burp them up or something. They also leave a lingering taste in my toungue.
Jokes on you, I’m Hungarian, I eat raw onions!
And why wouldn’t you. I tend to not bite into the whole thing but suffer from occasional urges to do so.
Still remember that maybe 10 years ago on our way to Romania two grandpa’s in a restaurant in Hajdúnánás ordered some huge chives to dip in salt with their beers.
I ordered the same 10 minutes after and both gave me a drinking salute. Still eat it in summer, amazing healthy snack.
Raw onions are delicious.
There good on burgers and hotdogs
Except, A lot of people eat raw onions. On salads and sandwiches. Sometime I caramelize some onions and put them on a sandwich along with raw onions. I guess they cancel out when I do that ;)
Pickled red onions are one of my top sandwich toppings. Easy to make and so goddam good.
I love these, what’s your go to recipe?
I follow J Kenji Lopez’s recipe
It’s goddam delicious.
I’m going to try to make this. Without the sugar of course.
ITT people discussing how good not-raw onions are.
Don’t forget about pico de gallo. Raw onion, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. And that’s just one of many Mexican foods that use raw onion.
Yeah but do they post up how much more manly and full of testosterone they feel afterwards?
Yeah, some people do like raw onions. Some like Vegemite. The trick is b getting the people who don’t to eat them
Once you caramelize onions they are socially acceptable in a much larger context.
Change my mind.
All onions are good onions. Big onion is best onion though
Change my mind.
I don’t want to.

I’m a bit skeptical of Twitter Verified posters though. Makes me think jeeba made that up for Twitter engagement… I guess that’s fitting, too.

Why would someone care about their testosterone levels? If it’s causing a problem shouldn’t you are a doctor. If it’s not then there is no problem in the first place.
Because an entire generation of online grigters convinced people that “big testo good, small testo bad”. The same people who think baldness is a sign of low testoteron or that thin men have low t.
Isn’t baldness literally linked to high testosterone?
These are the same people that think Joe rogan is smart.
Because he has such thick hair.
That is correct, But these guys want more testosterone because they think more testosterone = more man.
Yep, transmascs taking T often have to worry about it as a side effect
A specific type of testosterone, which also happens to be the most ‘potent’ one, but it, like many other occurrences in your body, has a lot of inputs and nuance to it.
Surely would explain why I have so much hair.
Well at least they are getting their veggies.
It’s one of the four humours of brodom.
Can’t say for much, but I do know testosterone is a drug (aka steroids) people willingly take to pursue a super muscular body type. Wouldn’t be surprised if people tried alternatives to get the same effect, especially since onions are technically “natty” (natural)
There’s probably also some folklore on test outside of bodybuilding, wouldn’t be surprised if toxic influencers promoted it
Testosterone it’s not a drug, but a hormone.
I should have specified in the context of bodybuilding. People naturally have testosterone, but when talking about bodybuilding, it’s usually about people taking it as a performance enhancing drug.
Jeeba is a Nazi apologist
Ooof. I should have known and blurred out their name. Or at least, just assume anyone on Twitter is a Nazi apologist.
Everyone on Twitter is literally a Nazi apologist.
4chan user in nazi association shocker
Bro science is bad science.
Bro is bad
So like, did he compose entire fake studies for a laugh or are there real scientific studies out there about the effects of raw onion on testosterone
People will believe anything so long as you sound authoritative enough and if people don’t reason about it enough. It applies to everyone even me
I believe you!
There’s the paradox.
So many people believe: because they know about a bias, they are not affected. Hint: they are!
Ok well in the absence of real information I am going to imagine he photoshopped an infographic together

Deliberately posting misinformation and misleading people doesn’t make them dumb. It just makes the world a worse, more confusing place.

How deep do you go? Believing a post on 4chan? Dumb. Believing a comment on reddit? Dumb. Believing an article on a reputable news site? Dumb. Believing a study funded entities that may encourage a bias? Dumb. Believing a study from scientists that would rather cause sensation than do good science? Dumb. Guess the only solution is to put on that lab coat, get a doctorate and do the experiment yourself, huh? Or maybe put the blame on people spreading misinformation instead of the victims it hurts. There isn’t enough time in the fucking day to validate everything you come across, and if you’re not doing the experiments yourself you’re trusting someone.

you’re telling me you can’t take something at face value until you’ve collected enough secondary information to validate or verify it?
That’s what you’re saying. Do you know what you’re saying?
deliberately believing everything you read online without questioning the validity, makes the world a worse more confusing place.

Omfg I have a friend who claims he just loves eating raw onions and I know why now 🤯😂
And perhaps that explains why a colleague of mine is eating onions.
Couldn’t it just be that they taste great?
Or are they eating them whole like an apple? That seems extreme.
If you eat them with the skin on, you’ll have so much testosterone that people will elect you to lead your country.
Wtf? Is that madness or fortitude?
New word unlocked: Mortitude.
