Oh, look, the unhappiness could be solved by better pay and benefits

I have some better quality kitchen knives I like keeping sharp.

I use a two-sided whetstone 400/2000 grit for basic shaping (400 is akin to those rolling sharpeners, to be used only when you fucked up real bad), a leather strop with green sharpening paste (~6000-8000 grit) glued to a piece of wood, a plain leather strop, and a honing steel.

Green sharpening paste is most of what I ever use, a couple of strokes weekly (more realistically about 20 once a month), and maybe polish it up with the plain leather strop. Keeps the knives wicked sharp, and then I just hone them after each use.

Sometimes I do stupid things and get burrs in my edge (like cleaving frozen bone), that's where the 2000 grit saves me.

400 I guess is for when the apocalypse comes or your kids decided to practice chef's knife throwing into scrap metal. It's nice to know I can remake a whole edge, but rarely used.

UwUpeans, so great, and so horrid at the same time.

You sir/madam/gentlebeing, are a most delightfully twisted individual.

The 7th lesson will be revealed in our FREE three-part email course.

Go picket, with enough people showing that justice matters, they'll have to find a less corrupt judge.

Tl;dr:

Bathtubs started small due to size constraints of rooms, but got smaller because it's cheaper to manufacture and handle smaller tubs.

We're learning in real time that the ICC and UN are great tools, until they disagree with you, at which point they can be ignored and even threatened.

Sounds like great news, no?

Just as we had a time before fungus digesting plant matter, we've now had a time before fungus digesting plastics.

"Soon" we'll get bacteria and insects doing the same, and all our plastic buildings will need to be protected just as the wood ones.

But, but... Dragging things out forever in court is his only move?

News about the right:

Trump blasts his trial judges. Then his fans call for violence.

They say they're Christian, they do things in the name of their Christian belief, they act in accordance to a Christian agenda.

Seems like they're at least as Christian as the next one, if not more.

Written with ChatGPT no doubt

Maybe, it also has symbolic value, and might demoralise the civilian populace, whose support is crucial to the continued state support.

It still seems a weak move as infrastructure should be a more effective target, but who knows how many layers of distractions and attacks of opportunity really happen in the field?

Yes, as the blurb says in the fourth word or so.

Edit: did the math and counted up to the fourth word

Lol, indoctrinated much?

We will still expend energy, thus satisfying the gods of thermodynamics.

My list is quite different than the ones currently in the thread.

The boring ones:

Creating a vaccine or other cloaking to make humans invisible to ticks & mosquitoes. A separate project would be to do the same for parasites.

Enacting strict pollution/carbon limits and mandatory circular economy everywhere in the world.

Researching, trialing and Enacting a sustainable post-capitalist system everywhere in the world.

Developing solar energy until covering global energy demands, including a power network that can transport energy from the sunny side and/or orbit everywhere.

The slightly more ambitious:

Establish self-sustainable colonies living on off-earth resources, most probably also situated off-earth.

Create a Dyson swarm with enough energy output for in-system exploration, mining, colonisation, and terraforming.

Perfect matter replicators.

I have some other ideas as well, but those would be a start.

Yeah, and although greedy, maybe not enough to ruffle feathers over.

No payment for sub-1000 streams/year

If you're buying tickets that far in advance, PTO is less of a request and more of "notifying you to fill those days".

Mostly spam, porn, and recipes it seems from the traffic.
