Most recently the complete lack of understanding of a wet bulb temperature comes to mind. In articles discussing this, people completely left out the "wet bulb" part, which they didn't understand, and went on to post comments about "65 DEGREES IS NOTHING, IT REGULARLY GETS OVER 90 WHERE I LIVE!!!". The audacity of some folks. It took me 5 seconds to Google wet bulb temperature to not look like a dumbass saying something like that with my whole chest lol

Same here! I've been organizing g a union at my job, and my coworkers all value transparency and collectivism very highly, when when it comes to the actual work and effort of being collective....it falls short.

I'd spent mo ths researching, writing down meeting minutes, making Q&A sheets....All to be asked the same questions OVER AND OVER AND OVER. It's even worse when people are skeptical of the subject at hand, too. Sheesh

I'm looking forward to that. I've been riding a Surly for years, I'm excited to see how fast I'll be when I rebuild my road bike!

Hahaha that's what I'm hoping for. Trying to push myself more than ever, we will see how long the motivation lasts

Yep, I hate it so much

[-] ratboy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that's a good point. I feel like in terms of tracking you have to unplug completely to be successful. No Square card readers, no social media, no Google anything, not to mention having to vet every service you use which doesn't feel like it would be worth it.

I mean if our culture wasn't so car centric and centered around instant gratification that wouldn't be an issue, it's not too hard to rent a car at all, especially if you've been planning a year long trip. Not trying to soapbox here, though, I'm very reliant on my car too and see doing all that as an inconvenience, but I realize how absurd it is to feel that way.

Have you ever spent weeks and months and years of being so sad that you don't even want to exist anymore? And the feeling won't stop, so you start thinking that you want to die instead of not exist? Then that turns into wanting to kill yourself instead of just wanting to die, then that turns into daydreaming about the different ways that you'll kill yourself, and then turns into trying to figure out how to get what you need to do it, and where to do it?

Yeah, mood stabilizers help with that.

Oof; maybe they should hire a different real estate agent if they didn't suggest cleaning up a tad bit more....It looks like the people who live here have kids which can make cleaning a nightmare...Or they may have ADHD or depression and let it all get too overwhelming to tackle...But there are definitely people who just don't mind it at all. I've deep cleaned things and shown housemates how dirty the floor/tiles/whatever is, and they end up really shocked because they just couldn't see that whatever it was was dirty at all. It's wild to me

Wow, I was going to say Kale, easily...but it definitely looks like you have some Collards in there, and I see what looks like Radish greens like another commenter mentioned...have you tried digging around in there to see if there are multiple bunches competing with eachother in that tiny space? That's what it looks like to me.

He was just playing the "Errrrr" game.

We seriously need to just toss all of these corpses in politics into the incinerator already.
