  • The toilet is obviously designed to hold your weight, since its normal use involves sitting on it.

    The lid spans about a foot across the bowl rim and is typically made of wood or plastic about 1/2" thick. Those materials are plenty strong enough to hold the weight of a human across that size span.

    The only lids I would hesitate to sit on are the absolute bottom-dollar cheap plastic ones like this, where the lid has been hollowed out to save material.



  • My concern would be less about whether it sends the original or creates a perfect copy, but more about how reliable it is. Getting Riker’d/Boimler’d would be okay, but having more than a negligible chance of any other sort of transporter accident would definitely give me pause.

    Subject: your billing statement is now available

    Body: Log on to our website because we couldn’t possibly JUST FUCKING TELL YOU HOW MUCH ELECTRICITY OR WHATEVER YOU USED THIS MONTH DIRECTLY IN THE E-MAIL; no, we’ve got to play fucking games and make you do extra work and stop you from automatically having a record of your shit without having to deliberately log on to the platform we control and download them individually with 30 seconds worth of clicking between each one.

    WTF is even the point of the email if there’s NO USEFUL INFORMATION IN IT?!



  • The abyss is the ocean; the void is space.

    If you scream into the abyss, you’ll get water in your lungs and drown.

    If you stare into the void, you’ll just see stars and stuff (as opposed to staring into the abyss, which is mysterious and unsettling because you actually can’t see through it very far).
