To preface, I have absolutely no idea about archeology or academia. I watched the first episode and I've been aware of Graham Hancock since his first appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, but I had to stop watching this new show after t

The second thing Žižek said was "I hate movies, but I love to watch porno. I cannot resist it. Yes, why not? It’s far more interesting than these old-fashioned procedures." Incredible conversation.

RIP to Kim Jung Gi. He could have drawn with a stick in sand and still produce brilliant art. But the tool is the thing that is most visible to admirers, and the thing that they can most easily replicate with their own work, so it doesn

I found the soundtrack to be really fitting with the tone of the movie. Maybe it’s a metaphor for Mark Zuckerberg.

Same thing happened with me and WoW Classic. I was hoping that classic would recapture the magic I felt playing the game a decade ago but after a few days I was just bored and cancelled my subscription. I guess that feeling is just a moment

> in PayPal’s sole discretion So I’m deleting my PayPal account. What do they consider “obscene”. Is it me saying ‘piss’ ‘shit’ or ‘fuck’? Why can’t we have clear guidelines with these things.

I would love nothing more than to have an EV, a Tesla battery and solar panels at home. But like most Australians, I rent. And when you rent here you can barely put a hook up on the wall without the owners permission (and usually them sayin

It was the same with most recent Star Treks too, including all of the new movies. They may as well have been titled “Generic Sci Fi Movie” and “Generic Sci Fi TV Show” Strange New Worlds is the only Star Trek in a long, long time that has b

Bit if a tangent but I absolutely love the Johnny Decimal system so much. It has become my defacto way of sorting things now. Didn’t know the person who invented was Aussie too, very cool! Good luck with your job search.

You’re talking about the company that removed the headphone jack so they could (very successfully) sell you wireless headphones. Nothing about an iPhone is really necessary” so of course they’d still sell the cases.

I first came across Cowboy Bebop because I bought the movie on Universal Media Disc (UMD) for a Sony PSP! I had no idea what it was about other than I heard the series was good, and I quite liked anime at the time. Was hooked ever since. Go

Update: Passed the course, held multiple positions / gotten promotions across a few industries that I wanted to experience. Been there, done that. Thanks for the checkin and reminder of how far I have come, though! :)

The short answer is, I have absolutely no idea. And that excites me. The way I see it is I can slave away at a job I hate to barely afford the things I need to live and be miserable, or I can do away with all of that and still face the same

Different country, but I'm basically one of those people who fit in the category of unemployed and not looking / don't want to work. Why would I? Why would anyone want to sacrifice one third of their life, if not more, only t

I’ve known plenty of people who get a ton of meaning out of fictional works too. Just because you view it as fictional doesn’t mean it can’t have meaning.

It's straight up garbage. I watched a single video about abortion because of the recent Roe v Wade news and now all YouTube does is recommend me abortion videos. My strategy is to now use YouTube while logged out. I've used adbloc
