This person makes really beautiful digital art that features a lot of power lines. I think it's really cool. Example:

I've long toyed with a mid-life pivot into a different field. Mostly, I lean towards IT as the most practical for me, but I love the idea of finally studying a hard science, which I grew to love, but never really got a good formal education in.

I've heard/read, for example, that there aren't necessarily tons of astrophysics jobs out there, so if you only have a bachelor's degree, you might have a tough time. I don't even know that this is true, but I use it as an example.

What are the hard science fields that would be the opposite of this? I could imagine there might be a lot of Chemistry-related jobs, for example, maybe? But I have a hard time imagining what you could do with a pure Physics degree (without also focusing on Engineering or something supplementary)? Would Biology get you anywhere by itself?

Or is it just the hard truth of all hard sciences that you're pretty much worthless with just a four-year degree, from a job perspective?

If nothing else, skip to ~2:22 for some wizardry.

Who decided that only people who are up and out before 10:30 AM deserve fresh biscuits? This world is fucked.

You're already on thin ice posting this meme encouraging immorality.

That's because you're both insane.

"We had to rehire our talented employees to continue making good games" would seemingly make the point very strongly that the workers bring value, not the owner?

I always liked the quote, "If you see someone stealing food, no you didn't."

There's a lot of gold for a 2:00 clip, but my favorite subtle part is that he appears to throw a frisbee for her to fetch at 0:55, after telling her to scram and just before telling her she has a great ass.

Feels smaller and more cozy to me.

Jesus, guys, lay off, Maxwell just prefers the action economy, customization, and strategic depth of the Pathfinder 2nd Edition system.

As an American, I know for certain it's not America. I feel no need to continue this game.

I guess it makes sense, seeing as they've perfected the desktop experience.

If you were near the Capitol, you were likely dealing with Capitol Hill police. I worked there for seven years and can vouch first-hand, as an extremely anti-cop person, that they were almost always good, helpful, non-power-trippy people. They were on-guard at all times as their only job was guarding the Capitol, so they were used to dealing with all sorts.

Slapping children in the face is traditionally considered disrespectful in many cultures.
