That's why conservatives hate people getting educated at college. Being better educated tends to make them better people. Excuse me, I mean "more liberal".

This guy wasn't in college.

It's repeated because it's true. This is very common in the industry.

I can't get Google Maps to recognize that my driveway is connected to the street I live on, not the street behind my house.

This is also genocide.

Despite it obviously being hugely popular (those crowds! Those smelly, smelly crowds!), I think this is the first time I've ever seen or heard somebody mention DragonCon "in the wild".

My experience is that EFL learners tend to be taught American English, but that might just be in Japan.

American English puts punctuation inside the quotes. I'm an American, but I think it makes more sense the way the British do it, so I switched to their way.

I sometimes prefer not to have any pillow when I'm sleeping on my stomach.

They're especially wonderful for back sleeping.

Everyone should get a high quality miniature/toddler pillow. There is always a small spot in the head or neck area which can be improved with a little bit of squishy pillow and these are perfect for that. They're also perfect for putting on top of another pillow which isn't quite tall enough but almost.

You should also get good pillows, but the tiny pillow is still nice to have.

You don't need to pay quite that much to get one, but investing in a nice, expensive pillow really upgraded my sleep quality dramatically. I won't even let my houseguests use cheap pillows anymore. The difference is just too dramatic.

High quality sheets are one of those great luxuries that isn't remotely necessary but is so, so nice to have. Especially on a hot summer night. In my experience, they don't last nearly as long as cheap sheets, but if you can afford them, it's worth it. I'll definitely check out Frette.

So.... This?

Oh, I agree. I love adaptive cruise control because it makes driving so much simpler, safer, and more relaxing (especially as someone with a medical condition which makes my legs get tired).

But after getting that loaner, I became extremely concerned about the prospect of people growing up with that level of adaptive cruise control. It won't be long before we have drivers who never really had to drive their car. I'm sure there are people who said the same about automatic transmissions, but being able to do basic things like stay between the lines when you drive is very different than having to shift gears on your transmission.

That would explain it.

Disney owning the rights to Alien makes me sick to my stomach.

Oh, so when an event wasn't caused by stochastic terrorism, suddenly they believe stochastic terrorism is a problem.

Look in the fucking mirror, JD Vance, Tim Scott, and all the rest of you.

Jesus christ, that's a lot of people in a short period.
