This made me smile, I approve.

There are people who just want to hate, they just pick a reason. You’re not responsible for everything that happens in the world. Cheers.

Try melatonin 15 minutes before lying down. Once you lie down, “think” about something casual (idle thoughts, not problems or anything that requires planning or decisions; a pleasant experience, a person, a critter). Melatonin prepares your brain to fall asleep, idle thoughts fill the space that intrusive thoughts will fill otherwise. If you’re warm, turn on a fan; your body temp needs to drop a bit to be ready to sleep.

I hear there’s a sequel to the Old Testament.

Was gonna say, I can ID all Arma Reforger helis by sound. #lifeskills

I think that, the larger/less tightly-coupled the societal unit, the easier it is for people to take advantage of others. Utopian ideologies only work if almost everyone sees the benefits and no one can subvert them, and even then only if there is cultural continuity over time.

Endora thinks every day is black cat day!

Joint venture named Cloudstrike.

Gen-X here, can confirm. The World of Tomorrow is today, and it sucks hard. Every dystopian sci-fi of my youth is coming true. I am not sure I want to know what the future is going to look like.

You realize it was a joke, right? I mean, the crying-laughing emoji was intended to indicate that subtle humor was in play.

4. When it emits CO2! 😂 😥

Tolerance means letting someone make their own choices, it doesn’t cover what comes next. It’s a disservice to tolerance to conflate the two.

I use the cashier because I don’t work for the store, they do (it’s not the best job, but they obviously need it). Corporations would love it if we stocked the shelves and mopped the floors, too. Maybe they could turn the lights out and we could use our phones’ flashlights to save on electricity, as well. They could give rewards points for snitching on people who don’t scan all their items (“Help keep prices down by joining our Volunteer Loss Prevention Program!”).

So if everyone used self-checkout, groceries would be cheaper…

That’s not how capitalism works.

So the scriptwriters can make their plot happen. Same answer to every technical “Why?!” question.

“Ask your doctor about senility.”

I, personally, feel relieved.
