And I thought, if these dodos have figured it out, surely I can find a way. So I think it was also being confronted with who was actually doing this and then you meet them and I’m like, oh, I’m at least as good as these people.

There is simply no amount of lifehacking that would ever give me a high A.

It’s a special kind of sunscreen that offers “barely there” coverage so that your skin can still drink in the healthy benefits of sunlight. The sunspots that may result are just glimpses of your radiant inner beauty shining through your skin.

Damn you weren’t kidding about those photos being unsettling.

I have some childhood friends that are very pro-Tonya and it is a little weird how they gloss over the whole Nancy Kerrigan assault. Poor Tonya had nothing to do with it and was busy with her own life struggles. Poor Tonya knew about it but it shouldn’t matter because her own life was so bad and she just needed to get…

Listen, writhing around randomly in your bedroom is YOUR ONE OPPORTUNITY to do something no one will ever copy in human existence.

My employer didn’t close either, but it turned out to be quite nice driving to work this morning since half the traffic was absent. I am dreading the afternoon commute, though. My boss is a real stickler for working in the office at all times (as opposed to working from home) and won’t let anyone go home even though he…

I am so god damned annoyed about living in Atlanta right now. Why does he have to come here? It’s ALREADY a clusterfuck today with the game and the weather predictions. I’m going to end up sleeping in my office.

Thanks - guh, I’ve fully bought into that one. I will have to do some reading.

Fair point

Blergh. I’ve never seen one used in an application that I think is aesthetically pleasing. If you have any, by all means, share!

Thank you for responding - I appreciate it. Someone else noted that I may just be parroting conservative talking points with the assumption that SS won’t be around for my generation, so I’m going to step away and read about it before commenting something dumb.

I agree with this fully in terms of paying taxes.

Can you please clarify this statement? I don’t understand what point you are trying to make, other than being rude for no reason.

Nah, they’re job creators! They need cuts. We should raise taxes on the POOR.

Honestly I agree with this, even though I know in practice it would be horrible for many people to just pull the Social Security rug out from under them. I don’t want that to happen. But it’s a big “fuck you” to people that have to pay into the system knowing that we’re not going to benefit from it. I just look at it…

I’m sure we’re due for another one soon. There are actually a bunch of (more recent) articles on UBI on Splinter et al. :)

The one on the left is 100% real... the one on the right looks really off to me, though. It looks like a bad photoshop job. But I am also a Luddite, so... I don’t know.

Ha, I didn’t have a cell phone until 2002. My family didn’t have that kind of money.

Ceiling lighting is an abomination. Human beings look best when surrounded by dimly lit lamps. Can lights are bested only by TRACK LIGHTS in the race for worst lighting fixtures.
