You and me both. I consider switching a few times a year just for this.

Cool game! I got it but it took a while. Suggestions, limit to 5 chars and use a Wordle-like interface so your phone can’t suggest words. I could see this being a legit NYT game.

3% of carbon emissions. Not 3% of greenhouse gases. Carbon emissions all up account for ~80%. Either way though, rising heat doesn’t bode well.

Fair enough. I didn’t know the X history. Twitter rename makes more sense now.

Austerity is miserable. It does not win elections. Even if a party bit the bullet, locked in and fixed this mess, they would be handing both the credit for any success and at least the best few future elections to the other party. Our syste

Wait - it’s intentionally meant to sound like “space sex” right? I mean, it’s not 1:1 but it’s very close. Say it out loud 10 times. But maybe possible it’s just all about the letter X for him? Also, to clarify, I don’t dislike the guy. Nor

This from a guy who unveils his new data center at exactly 420 and has a line of cars intentionally named to spell out “s3xy” and the reason we’re all forced to say “space sex” out loud every time we talk about a rocket launch. We are trapp

It was requested for…weather, alarms, music. You know - all the things his phone ALREADY DOES.

The entire business model was people being willing to buy things “site unseen”. This is not how people shop. Seeing is an important part of the experience. Also, these losses are staggering. And yet they are still selling these things. I ju

Independent here. Did not vote Trump in 2020. I tend to agree that for a party that spends a lot of time talking about the importance of democracy, we’re in fairly undemocratic territory here. However, you could make the argument that voter

My wife is a nurse. She has a non-critical job making care plans for patients and the system is STILL down.

But neither “chink” nor “spick” is even remotely as offensive as the N word. The fact that I won’t even use the word but I will use the other 2 is proof. I don’t think you would use the word either. If we assume that we’re dealing with a wo

I researched this a bit and it looks like the actual slur is "Kaffir", which is also spelled "Cafri" and comes from the Muslim term for "non-believer". And somehow this word was chosen to be used as a slur and

I’m the same. My wife loves museums. It’s been a long 22 years. I always thought it was because I had a character flaw. Like I’m not cultured enough or too stupid.

This is the right take. There’s a lot here we don’t know and tyranny is the deliberate removal of nuance. We have none of the nuance right now. But I fear that even when we do, nobody will care. Because isn’t that kind of the current state

It’s odd how we glorify religion in this country, and then are immediately horrified when it rears its head in certain places. We seem conflicted. Is it a good thing, or a bad thing? Or maybe just the “right one” is a good thing? Full discl

This is what worries me. I have devised a law of absolutes that is, "Nothing is all upside" or "Everything has unintended negative consequences". And the more something appears to be all upside, the more devastating the

No, but it certainly helps. Alcohol makes me a better listener. A better father. A better husband. A better friend. Less selfish. Less judgmental. More caring and more generous. I drink cautiously because I know the health risks. I limit my

It definitely cuts both ways. I’m not trying to pretend like that isn’t also the case.

No, they are saying that the best option for peace is to make yourself so formidable that nobody wants to go to war with you. The point is NOT to go to war. It's just that the argument isn't disarming, it's the opposite, howe

> “Disproportionately affecting people of color” Are we arguing that these things are worse because they disproportionately affect one arbitrary grouping? Would it be better if it affected everyone equally? Would that make us happier? Th

Nobody likes poor people. It’s just that some people also dislike the rich.

Yeah fast food already crazy expensive out here. Its already about the same as a sit-down restaurant. No real reason to buy it. Maybe this is the beginning of the end?

The “bring your whole/authentic self to work” is a terrible thing to tell people. Precisely because companies have cultural values they are giving you at the same time. They are literally telling you who you should be at work and then
