This has been a popsci fantasy for a quarter of a century or more. Google tried it and gave up.

Your cat sounds like me in jr high through high school.

It straight up makes up sources and citations.

Goddamn I needed to hear this

Land snails also shit out of the same hole they breath through.

I still do, but I used to, too.

Wobbly windows, rotating cube workspace switcher, and a flaming bonanza animation when a windows was closed.

The year was ~2003

I remember just giving up on life in second grade, refusing to participate or do anything because I was sad. Got tested a bunch after that and given pills that mad me a zombie.

There on out I was treated as a weird kid and that brought a different kind of sadness. Puberty added anger and suicidal ideation. The knowledge that I was fucked up, the world was fucked up, and my life wasn't going to work out.

Years later here I am, living with the knowledge I was right and watching myself fail at life, finding no joy or peace in anything. Everything is an open sore. Wondering when I'll get to a point where I rage quit.

I think most of the people I know are anxious or depressed, or both. Hut I don't know of anyone close to me who is at my level.

I stopped reading Sanderson specifically because he puts out so many books with unnecessarily huge page counts that I just don't care anymore.

I'm not allergic to long books either, having read the entire WoT series 3+ times. But I'd much rather read stuff that authors have spent time on instead of mass producing.

You sound more like an agitator trying to sow resentment than someone who actually believes in liberal values.

Shitting on anything except a magical savior that waves a wand and makes the world anew is a delusion, not politics.

Me: hey, some sorely needed common sense reforms got passed. Rural hospitals in a majority of states have the desperately needed federal funds to stay open and people are less likely to die because they cant afford their life saving medicines, great right?

You: fucking idiot, not every problem on the planet has been solved! How dare you celebrate solving just one problem we've been fighting for a generation to get fixed!

This comment is proof a certain segment of liberals just can't be happy.

"just Medicare expansion and lowering prescription drug costs" Just?! Oh you mean just two issues which voters have been demanding for over 2 decades? Just what democrats have tried to accomplish forever but Republicans have blocked?

Political parties are capable of having and achieving multiple policy goals at once. Jesus christ.

Maybe because manh people think it's useless and stupid and wish it would go away. Trusting a random bot to tell you the political leaning of an information source so you know whether to trust the information is peak stupidity, IMO.

Because NASA treats its waste water like every other sane responsible rocket company or government agency.

SpaceX fans have known about this for a long time now, and they just don't care. They've shouted down anyone who has pointed it out for well over a year now

CO2 and water. The rocket fuel is not the source of the mercury.

Cleaner fuel? It's oxygen and methane. Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, no mercury. Still I can't think of a source.

I was very against Hillary running in 2016 for this specific reason. I don't care how qualified a candidate is. If they are related or in a relationship with a previous president I don't fucking want them. This is America goddammit, we aren't supposed to have nobility.

I am 100% convinced Twitter is being intentionally destroyed by a cabal of evil oligarchs and nation states.

The reaction to Project 2025 has really surprised me. There's nothing new in it that hasn't floated around in the worst parts of conservative circles.
