You are +5 for me too.

In a functioning society I think that would be criminal.

It’s like tattooing your new girlfriend’s name on your ass.

I haven’t either but I do find myself having to master the urge more and more.

Actually thank you for the question. I’m still processing a lot of this stuff so in many ways writing it out ended up being to my benefit more than yours.

I had very similar experiences. Let me know if you ever want to talk about it, but I’m also unsociable so I will understand perfectly if you never do, and may even be relieved. You get it.

I was homeschooled K-12 and never went to college, so home school is literally all I know and I have thoughts. Motivation matters - I was home schooled for religious reasons by parents who were themselves educated but wholly unqualified to teach a single child much less 4 kids. They homeschooled us primarily to avoid the indoctrination of the secular world, where the lies of evolution and gay baby killers reigned supreme. Thus, I was not well educated and didn’t realize it until I got into the work force. I have been battling crippling imposter syndrome ever since I realized how deficient my education was - I’m still in the process of understanding the scope of that deficiency oversight is not optional. In my situation, we were homeschooled without any government involvement or oversight in any way. My parents told me at the time that this was how the laws in my state worked but they also told me to stay away from Truant Officers so I think they were lying. I had no sense of equivalency or where I stood compared to my peers until I was in the process of testing out to get my GED (because weirdly, prospective employees weren’t keen to accept the “diploma” my dad had printed from MS Word) that I saw my percentile rank in various subject Unless you are an educator, don’t try to run a curriculum. If you’re going to homeschool, pay a tutor. If you can’t pay a tutor, probably don’t home school I know that last bit sounds extreme and I don’t think my home school experience is typical so take it with a grain of salt.

I actually just got the pun just now, and realize my last comment probably seemed like a joke question. I’m dumb.

Is this okay to use for non teaboos?

It has a slightly different effect with her. At least to me it does. I don’t mean that in a creepy way but her big eyes are cute and that’s now how I’d think of Rami Malek

I’ve been experiencing this dilemma a lot lately and I think we need a word for it.

Weird how normal he sounds in this tweet though. It really throws his recent communications into stark contrast.

Ooooowa-ah-ah-ah

I know he’s from an LDS family, and they are nominally teetotal, but I’m pretty sure this dude’s mom was on the hard sauce for all nine. I’m just a dude and not a doctor but that looks like FAS to me. Which absolves him of nothing. Whatever his limitations he knows right from wrong and he’s a bigoted lying asshole who got folks killed. So I don’t really feel bad if his mommy marinated him in her secret schnapps stash.

Which is why I will never buy a car made after 2015 if I can possibly avoid it. If I were writing the rules,

• My car should not be capable of pay-walling any features

• Just like my phone, I should have fine grained control over what data my car shares and with whom

• No vehicle controls that may need to be accessed while driving should require more than one click on a touchscreen to access

• Any touchscreen UI should be easily controllable from a steering wheel type d-pad

• No non-entertainment vehicle controls should be primarily accessible from a touchscreen

• Any controls that affect the speed, position, size, or access of the car should only have secondary touchscreen controls that are upstream of any failures modes in the primary physical control; in other words, a UI control should only be a backup method for important functions of the vehicle, and they shouldn’t be able to break the main method if they break

When I had to reluctantly buy a used car, I made it a point to buy a used car no newer than 2015 and this is why. Well this and touchscreen mania.

By your hammer, what a comment.

Someone’s gotta do it.

Squirt is the absolute Bomb’s Pajamas.

Never heard this term before but I have never gone so fast from wondering to realizing to wincing in my life.

The day “my personal cloud” stopped exclusively referring to my farts was a very good day for me.

Spring for the spell check function for management.

Especially interesting given Beeple kicked off the NFT craze in a way.

What we are looking at here is the aftermath of a jaeger-based transportation ritual, successful by the looks of it. Whoever did this, is not with us anymore. He belongs to the Hunt Masters now. Also that figurine needs to stay exactly where it is or our traveler will not be able to return fully ensouled. This is old magic we’re looking at.

Agreed. In addition, at least on Voyager for Lemmy, you can see your net upvotes for each user next to their name. So it’s nice to see so many names I recognize and have a quick visual sense of how much I’ve already interacted with them

heheh, beef
