As someone with a background in linguistics, my jimmies are indeed rustled.

Anybody can learn to grow plants. It just takes practice and learning. There’s a gazillion YouTube videos on gardening and I’m sure there’s tons on how to grow weed specifically.

I honestly don’t get why so many people are so reckless and impatient on the roads.
Driving provides you anonymity and a getaway vehicle. It also anonymzes other people on the road, which I think kinda gives people like, main character syndrome?
AI-generated articles, books, coloring books for example, are all a thing now. Behind the Bastards did a podcast episode on the latter two.
Remote workers are overall more productive, report a better work-life balance, and suffer less from occupational burnout. It also saves companies money because they don’t have to spend as much on office space.
My time is the most precious commodity I have. Unfortunately I’m in a career where I can’t work remotely, but if I was I would refuse to go back to the office. Life is too precious to waste it sitting in traffic if you don’t have to.
but being vegan on a day to day basis means checking what is in every little thing you eat or drink, I mean literally checking labels and searching ingredients
That’s true in the sense that you have to do it when you encounter something new, but once you become familiar with products, you just know what is safe and what isn’t after a while. I wouldn’t say going to the grocery store is much more difficult for me than an omnivorous person because I’ve been vegan/vegetarian for about a decade now and I’ve just got a mental list of many products I know are appropriate for me to eat. Yes I do still have to check labels when I’m getting something new (and have to stay aware of when recipes get updated) but it’s not as arduous as people make it out to be, IMO.
And that’s just buying processed food. If you’re cooking from scratch it’s pretty easy to know what’s going into your food and select plant-based protein sources like tofu, beans, seitan etc.
In addition to your diet/lifestyle, I’d say you can be a force for good in the world in terms of animal welfare by just trying to consume less, have a smaller carbon footprint, and do what you can to support wildlife. Something I’m passionate about myself is converting my lawn to prairie in order to foster local wildlife. You could also volunteer your time/money towards supporting habitat restoration projects or something like that.
Stasis was in the first game, yes. You were required to use it several times to be able to pass through a few malfunctioning doors. You get it for free early in the game and don’t have to upgrade it at all to open the doors, preventing the game from soft locking itself.
From what I can tell, a lot of jobs are already like that. It’s almost like society isn’t designed to make people happy 😑
There also isn’t any guarantee that a quality game will actually sell well, especially if the dev takes a risk and creates something new instead of releasing the 14th installment in a well-established series. It sucks but this is what it looks like when you have gigantic businesses steering video game development.
I’m betting it would actually be cheaper to cook something like rice and beans than it would be to eat cereal.
The actual signs exist (get yourself a planisphere or a stargazing app, find some dark skies, and discover them for yourself!), it’s just all the magic personality nonsense associated with them is bullshit.
I agree with you. Imagine a country starts rounding up and murdering some ethnic/religious minority. Doctors shouldn’t be like “ahh we must help the government kill them in the most humane way possible!” If anything that’s enabling it.
Partway through the article:
Smith was convicted in the 1988 murder of Elizabeth Sennett. Sennett’s husband, a pastor, allegedly paid Smith and another man $1,000 each to kill her.
A jury voted 11-1 to sentence Smith to life in prison, but the judge overseeing the case overrode that decision and sentenced him to death. That practice, called judicial override, has since been eliminated in all 50 US states.
Some of Sennett’s relatives attended the execution and told reporters they had forgiven Smith.
“Nothing that happened here today is going to bring Mom back,” sais Mike Sennett, Elizabeth Sennett’s son. “It’s a bittersweet day, we’re not going to be jumping around, hooping and hollering, hooraying and all that, that’s not us. We’re glad this day is over.”

I don’t think that’s true.
Did you know they’re based on Japanese history?
Yeah, you could easily make this more straightforward by putting parentheses around 8÷2. It’s like saying literature sucks because Finnegans Wake is incomprehensible.
I’ve been in education for a few years and can tell you that a lot (most?) of teachers are cheering on the inside when they see a bully get his ass beat. These school policies aren’t being set by teachers.
Go vegan. It’s better for the planet too.
Have you played Call of Pripyat with Misery? It is so good. I would have to call it my favorite gaming experience of all time. I put a ton of time into Shadow of Chernobyl with mods too. It’s been a long time though, maybe it was Oblivion Lost?
I remember wanting to be a forum mod when I was like 15 and thought that it would make me cool on the forum. As a grown adult… no way. I am so busy between work, grad school, and my personal life, I have no time for such silliness. I have a lot of respect for mods that donate their own time to run communities.
