Pick up the jar.

#I played that game as well.

Me and the homes in the old person dorm. Playing games, watching movies, doing community service.

Did you take a real IQ test administered by a qualified human, or an internet IQ test?

Real IQ tests have shaky research behind them. Internet IQ tests are worse than garbage.

I am bothered by the relationship dynamic you describe. Look into signs of an abusive relationship.

Know that even if you are not smart, you still have worth. You can have and be successful at many jobs and can find a partner that will treat you with respect.

When I handled these, I always checked for poor taste collisions. If found, granted an immediate exception.

She would be Megan.finger@.

Fuck the old systems with hard character limits.

Ah, shit man.

Yarvin has influenced some prominent Silicon Valley investors and Republican politicians, with venture capitalist Peter Thiel described as his “most important connection”.[15] Political strategist Steve Bannon has read and admired his work.[16] U.S. Vice President JD Vance “has cited Yarvin as an influence himself.”[17][18][19] Michael Anton, the State Department Director of Policy Planning during Trump’s second presidency, has also discussed Yarvin’s ideas.[20] In January 2025, Yarvin attended a Trump inaugural gala in Washington; Politico reported he was “an informal guest of honor” due to his “outsize influence over the Trumpian right.”[21]

Ah shit, I didn’t know living a lie was an option.

Can I do this at home, or do I need a remote cabin?

Is Rocket League a RPG?

No.

So as far as quality of life, it wouldn’t even cost them anything.

That was my point.

There are near 800 billionaires in the USA. Assuming all only have $1 billion dollars and it is all invested, applying the “4% rule” gives a sustainable $40 million each per year. With $10 million to personally spend, that gives $24 billion a year for charity and public works.

I failed to find a list of the costs to solve various issues. Homelessness could be solved in a couple years.

The numbers provided are just a starting place. Many problems are extremely expensive. Actually working to solve them would help.

Good.

People cannot believe something is real if they don’t understand it. Helping more people understand it will help them see reality.

(The rebuttals about imaginary creatures mostly prove the point. All are simple caricatures.)

Then a book recommendation. “Make the Bread, Buy the Butter”.

The author does the math on a number of products to see if one should make or buy. It factors in things like skill involved.

I like it.

I think hospitals and clinics have been operated by states and cities for a long time.

Hard to start, easy to teardown.

Massachusetts has one (I don’t know details)

In case this is helpful (to whoever)

“It’s important that Shipping is up-to-date on these developments, Bob is their point person”

Response Options:

• Sure is. Bob is great. Is there a problem?

• That makes sense. Who is Bob?

• Sir, this is a Wendy’s. Can I cake your order. (Only applicable if you are on shift at the Wendy’s you work at.)

There are books for children on this. Lots of them. Read a few and pick ones that fit your values. I suggest providing a few.

He is hearing information already. Much of it wrong.

With 7 billion current humans, and many more dead, it is unlikely any problem was not noticed.

Sometimes it was intentionally setup to be a bother, other times the fix takes more resources than a single person can apply.

People all over Lemmy admit it.

Nothing can change until a small number of Republicans start voting with Democrats. Democrats won’t have a useful majority if voters keep staying home.

No. Sometimes.

Beards are sometimes like that too.

Let’s talk more about the headbands. I use the cheap elastics and haven’t had an issue. Have you tried a large handkerchief?

Thanks!!

I would love to read that. Would you have a reference? (I failed to find one.)
