To my pride, my oldest child picked BYOB or Killing in the Name as his choices for his walk up song in little League baseball. I've never, ever been prouder of him.

Pesticides have nothing to do with this. Staple crops in the United States essentially do not use fungicides anymore. GM crops have negated that need. Edit: what did I say that was incorrect?

That's really, really weird. What are you trying to accomplish with all that?

Fucking Myst is the opposite of replacing for me. FUCK those puzzles. But do you also remember the Dr. Brain series? Those were amazingly restorative to my tiny young brain.

I'm absolutely with you. It's the pointlessness of cozy games that gets me. It's just clicking around and a weird attempt at making you feel like you've accomplished something (instead of running on a hamster wheel). Far

I don't know why you're being down voted. Life absolutely is a nightmare. We live and struggle and people die horrible deaths for no reason. Children suffer. Then we die. It's what you do with that. Give up? Or try to make yo

What about movies, television, books, hiking, riding atv's, fishing, drawing, etc.? Are those a net negative? They're also hobbies or entertainment.

All the rest of your nonsense aside, why did you sign your comment. You know your name is already attached to that, right?

I've told this story on here before. When I was 16 or 17, the place I was working got robbed. The guy just opened the register while I was fixing part of the greenhouse building. The police showed up and took my statement, in which I s

Correct, we disagree in what we think.

Not sure about Germany either. But in the US, colleges have offices for accommodations. The faculty isn't required to do anything unless the university, acting through that office, tells them to. Source: my career spent working with th

I think it's a natural product of curiosity. And I think that intelligent life would only be so because of curiosity. You want to figure things out or you're interested in seeing what happens when you fuck around with things. So I

We had to switch from pods to liquid because the pods make way too many suds, so the emergency float shut off was getting stuck. Source; that time I replaced my fucking dishwasher because I couldn't figure out why it kept leaking so mu

I don't think so, though. I think that unless there are limiting factors (no ores or some other necessary component) life would tend toward technology. Curiosity as an evolutionary trait is quite an advantage, and I would think is nece

Your wife should have received accommodations through the office of accommodation services or disability services or access or whatever they call it. The school should have had information about that in the syllabus. Either way, with approp

Should have filed with the office of disability services (or access services or whatever they call it) for accommodations. Without that there's no lawsuit.

I like to leave dead comments on. It helps me feel better about living in a cultural wasteland to see that people who probably live near urban centers can be just as dumb! It really does help me worry less.

The only time to avoid command words like should is when the person could conceivably see them as a command. Because then you're being a dick. Otherwise, if someone wants to take the time to dissect meaning from add-on meaningless word

It's absolutely amazing that we can even figure out molecules at that distance. I'm sure it's accurate but it's so sciency to me that it might as well be made up entirely. I can't begin to fathom that process.

The articles I read just made the people seem like they were doing their job as the description was written. I still don't understand that whole thing.

Why do tech companies get a hand-wavy pass for basic customer service just because they're really big now? In what way is tech special compared to literally anything else? If you can't sustain a business, it shouldn't exist?

I think that's a function of the internet combined with a new flavor of individual exceptionalism. It is shockingly easy to engage only in echo chambers, even without knowing it. You're just on a site for people with similar inter

From what I can tell, there's not much analysis of 4chan going on here, but more people just sort of remembering their time on the site. That's what this has been for me; a walk down memory Lane to my teenage edgelord years.

After leaving when it got too shitty, I would go back once a year or so to check the racism in pol, see if maybe b was back to doing things instead of just porn, and read the plainly undiagnosed schizophrenia on the paranormal board. Like y

I was on there almost from the beginning. Early 2004. It was never good, but it definitely went entirely to shit when all the alt-right nut bags started flooding the site with nonsense starting around 2014-15. I have to believe it was a coo

There was a time that if you weren't on 4chan, you missed everything good. I remember staying awake for 20 hours tracking one thread. If you left it was gone forever and you genuinely missed out. 2004-5 area. That being said, I haven&#

They want freedom for themselves. They're free to impose their will on others without judgement. That's the purpose.

It will take a majority of states, and their military backing, forcefully overthrowing Trump. I really hate to be alarmist, but it does feel more and more that we're headed to massive, coordinated state against state violence.
