This idea has an obvious problem. It's a lot of hard work. How many people are going to be diligent in planting canaries etc? And if you are, can you be diligent for the next 1, 2, 3 decades? That's a lot of time spent on this. Yo

I'm not in Twitter, but I clicked that link just to see what you're talking about. I must've scrolled 50 messages and saw a total of 2 pepes. That's it. Maybe Twitter is showing you that based on your historical account

The supervisor is responding to the BS he's being told. OP isn't telling the supervisor "I have emotional problems that lead me to procrastinate as an avoidance mechanism". He's telling him something like "oh y

You can tell straight away it's a grift from the fact they went thru the trouble of creating a computer graphic of how their factory would look like. I mean, who cares what the factory looks like?

Ok since everyone here is a fan of metric, can we also do away with imperial time? What is this nonsense, 1 minute has 60 seconds, but all of a sudden a day has 24 hours and a week 7 days? Why the arbitrary ratios? Compare to how 1 metric m

Hey, don't let me stop you. I'm not advocating for you or anyone to NOT be a fanboy. In a capitalistic society, the existence of fanboys makes the world better of the rest of us.

It's attempts to entrech their own power, but IRS also collects money. Just become something benefits the democrats doesn't mean it can't collect revenue for the state. So, my point still stands.

The Democrats are funding the IRS and the Republicans are defunding it. It was literally the first thing they did when they won the house. They're all dishonest, but obviously not to the same degree.
