I had the same thought for a while, then I started playing dnd and subsequently DMing. Now any extra mental bandwidth I did have goes to solving open-ended people problems my players give me while we’re playing.
Side benefit is I’ve felt more empathetic and patient with people since starting because I have to constantly put myself in a character’s head when we’re role-playing. I imagine that makes one seem more personable and cool to be around possibly helping with the unemployment too
Dnd sessions, always fun to have props
Hey friend I’m a cobbler that does those kind of lifts all the time. I use a contact cement that is removed with acetone but acetone along with isopropyl alcohol can melt the material that some soles are made from so be careful. Aside from that practicing your moonwalk on the pavement outside with them on will help plenty with the stickiness if it’s just the adhesive on there that’s the problem
That little “tldr” at the beginning of that text wall makes me feel gross
Until Youtube no longer loads period with an ad blocker people will still use them and even then people will find back doors to prevent the firehose of ads Google wants to subject you to. They wanted a monopoly and now they are big mad they have to deal with the consequences of that decision
These kinda folks look the best when they crawl away unharmed from the twisted pile of useless scrap that used to be that truck
And here I thought it meant quirky, fuck
Not a super long time but I conflated apocryphal with like sagely or scholarly

Yes, constantly. It’s perfectly harmless if thats what your trying to get at
Completely nonsensical and screws everyone involved.
Student loans are supposed to be an investment the government takes in its population. If it works properly then the money that the government spent on the students tuition is both paid back monetarily by the student as well as societally because now you have an educated citizen providing ever increasing tax revenue. If you make student loans illegal you not only make it impossible for students to educate themselves beyond public school you destroy the entire post secondary school industry now that so few can afford to educate themselves.
What needs to happen is cutting out all the middleman bullshit and just making post secondary education free with your taxes, at least a couple years worth. If someone wants to be a doctor or a lawyer or someone who needs to have more than a couple years worth then sure that can be on their dime. Otherwise those first 4 years are just unnecessarily saddling people with mountains of debt that there is no guarantee they can pay back after they are done
It’s not so simple I think. Anti-intellectualism is a symptom of the greater human condition. Part of it is the scapegoat aspect. If something has a name then it’s easy to point a finger at it, easy to blame the person who named it. Part of it is envy, people trying to tear down those who they feel are superior to them. Part of it is propaganda, if not caused by certainly exacerbated by.
Like many things in life it’s complicated.
It’s hard to find someone who makes content that doesn’t kowtow to Youtube’s terrible system. Content takes time to make and time costs money but youtube will make these people break their spine bending over backwards to make sure they don’t get demonitized and get the scraps of ad revenue that Google designs to give them. So now we get people trying to dance around stupid censorship rules, finding more and more sponsors because they don’t get paid enough and have to scream figuratively and literally to get enough attention to pay the bills.
Honestly that’s the strongest part of the sequels for me they are truly beautiful visually
Death of Maul in Rebels. After years of searching for his self imposed rival desiring the revenge for all the years of pain he had endured he finds a withered old man who had moved on. Obi-Wan rises to meet his once mortal enemy baiting him with the starting form that his master had used all those years ago. Maul takes the bait and is cut down by the man he had hated for most of his life. In his dying moments he is held and reassured by the same man that the Force, the only thing that Maul had left would be at balance once again. It’s lasts seconds but it’s like a painting in motion with how much is going on
Yes and no, I feels like it absolutely could be as addictive as Reddit but there just isn’t enough content being generated for me to powerscroll for hours only to do the same thing the next day
Everyone in the building wears one regardless.

If the camera is off I might as well be dead to my employers and coworkers.
My pay increases proportionally to the success of the business.
