I’m so curious as to why you think us/canadian toilets don’t flush if you pour water into the bowl..

I lose them entirely too often for that to be an affordable option for me 🤭 I get like 80 clothespins for $1. I’ve gone through like 5 packs of them in 15 years, give or take.

But maybe I’d hit a level of saturation eventually (I find random clothespins all the time now) and it would work out.

Probably not - I have a habit of MacGyvering stuff from whatever I find laying around.. clothespins are stupid handy for that, and binder clips would be too.. so I’d definitely repurpose them.. :)

It could, but if you deprive sleep to the point of hallucinations, you risk legit permanent damage. Which costs long term money.

But also please sleep better if you can, that’s bad for you long term. And you sound young. Don’t fuck up your future for no reason.

I wonder when they will start digging up nests of eggs specifically to incubate at cooler temps to make sure that some are born male.. gosh what a huge undertaking that would be..

Lawl, I don’t need the government to give me money to not work, I’m literally going to do that anyway, probably for a year or more. But finding a new job isn’t as easy as you seem to think. You just sound super out of touch with society as a whole.

I want everyone else to have the security to quit without having found a new job. And that requires social programs. Because insurance, and housing, and childcare needs and whatever else.

The perk of the social programs is giving people who live in poverty the security to walk away when the workplace is shit. People who live in poverty (of which I technically count based on income, even though I’ve managed to make it work through mostly choosing never to have a family, and getting lucky the partner of my deceased parent was willing to co-sign a cheap foreclosure for me at a good time in the market) typically can’t afford not to have steady income, and business rely on that to keep wages low. I recognize my privilege in being able to do this, and don’t see why I should be able when people who raise the next generation of humans can’t. If anyone should be able to take downtime to do things they want, it’s parents. But they are the most forced into long hour and low wages.

You might want to, as the internet says these days, touch grass.

It depends on the game.

Typically I prefer normal, but there are some games where inverted camera just makes it easier, like games with full 3D exploration (flying/swimming). I do sometimes only invert the vertical for these, so I’m that maniac.

If you are an older gamer, you’re probably right that you picked it up in the early camera control games (ps1/2 for me), because changing camera function wasn’t an option and a -lot- of games inverted by default back then. I believe the logic was to treat your view camera like a real video camera, where you push the back to the left to point the camera lens to the right, but most people don’t have that type of experience so it’s less intuitive, which is why it’s less common now. I blame mostly Spyro flying challenges for my limited inversion use.

And like you, I struggle with games that don’t allow me to pick, which is most of the older games, even remastered 😭 it’s so hard to re-learn.

OMG I need it.

I need to paint the core set I have now, though.. (yes I’ll play it, but I wanted it for the minis)

I love this, but it bothers me for reasons I can’t properly ar-tic-ulate.

(I took the joke presented in the syllables, but I’m kinda serious)

I entirely agree with you, it’s a poverty penalty and should be abolished entirely -except for- the wealthy, who -should- be required to post bail to walk free, as a got-caught-being-antisocial wealth tax. :)

So so many things about the American police state need to be fixed, really.

I would normally agree with you, but I’m not so bad.. 😜

I’m this case, dilution may actually be the solution to pollution…

Probably not, but maybe.
