Why would it make sense to manufacture different types of caps when the largest market is now the attached ones?

I’m pretty sure he turned it down?

I wasn’t trying to conflate the two things. I was providing a source on where the “farms” came from, and clarified that they were meant to help “drug addicts” (not minimizing your experience- just reinforcing that the wording is already not great from a lens of treating maladaptive substance use, in addition to being completely inappropriate for people who take prescribed medications.)

I neither agreed not disagreed, though I do find it problematic to be enrolling people who are neurodivergent into any kind of list for any reason without their expressed consent and ability to withdraw that consent at any times. If the reason is purely investigation/research as you say, then I believe that it should be under the same rigor and ethics considerations as any other research.

The farms were for those addicted to dangerous drugs like antidepressants.

Yes.

I’m uncomfortable.

Including taco Tuesday???

I would say that an artificial dad is the partner of a married single mom.

Costco sells rotisserie chicken at a loss. It’s an easy way to get cheap, relatively healthy, low effort protein.

Funny enough, I just finished playing through Paper Mario 64, and you’ve basically described Peach’s chapters. She’s able to pass on messages by way of using another character as a messenger.

The way the game is structured is there’s a mini Peach chapter in between each main chapter, but I think it would have been intriguing if you never actually got to see Mario’s side of the story and only heard about his adventures from the guards, diary entries, etc. Cool idea for a puzzle game!

So angry at Nestle and the time they killed all those African babies doesn’t even hit your highlight reel. I agree- we can do without Nestle.

I’m a fan of mindfulness and gratitude practice. Also, physical exercise! Nothing like working up a good sweat when I’m mad at myself to feel better after.

Cthulhu is a priest whose role is to summon the ancient ones. In this context he is the middleman.

If they were happy then the Kids would be Alright.

Hayao Miyazaki’s art style specifically has so much life injected into it, that you would have to be incredibly specific to even approach his style.

There’s an instance that stands out in Spirited Away, when Chihiro is putting on her shoes, she taps the toes of one foot against the ground to set it on correctly. A miniscule detail, but one that makes her feel more real. You’d need such an elaborate prompt to make that happen via AI, but thats the kind of detail that he includes in his movies. To him, the thought of having “someone” illustrate that who has never put their shoe on incorrectly and had to fix it is beyond inauthentic. That’s my take. Less about the worry of technology taking over, and more about the technology not understanding the language it’s being taught, because it can’t.

I understand that many people have an incorrect understanding of DEI (and at times have had experience with it being incorrectly applied). I was actually hoping to learn where this particular person learned their viewpoint to have a conversation.

Genuine curiosity here- where did you get your definition of DEI?

Flames! Flames on the side of my face!
