  • I'm not sure how this qualifies as being any better, I read this one previously and found it to be lacking in actual data information. It makes claims but literally anyone can write whatever they want on the Internet. It's not enough data and not clear on how they actually measured or how many measurements they took

  • My favorite is Sherwin Williams Super paint, though lately I've been using Ben from Ben Moore and Clark & Kensington as well because that's what they sell where I work and paint is paint and discounts are discounts. And they both work perfectly fine and go on nicely.

  • Regal seems so difficult to get a nice even result with unless you are a fairly experienced painter, and the price point is just absurd when there are plenty of cheaper brands that offer all the same promises regarding durability.

    Edit to add: I will say it's a very nice thick and creamy consistency which helps get a thick coat on initially which means less coats/time spent, but since it can be a bit finicky you might have to do extra coats anyway just to get everything to look even 😕

  • It sounds like you've been the victim of the misinformation campaign designed to make it seem like everyone who isn't you is your enemy and that all people who hold certain beliefs are a certain way, when the reality is far from this

  • If they can even get there. At this point there's so much money poured into vitriol and smear campaigns, divisive propaganda to keep everyone off the same page, hell, even people getting murdered or imprisoned just for trying to do what they can to get their voice out on a public platform and improve their countries... I hope the revolution actually happens, but it seems like it'll take some grand feat of coordination..

  • I know what you mean here, but it's a bit egotistical of humans to be like "we literally know what this creature who can't talk" is thinking when they can barely properly guess what their long term partner or friend is always thinking 🤣 cats MIGHT be more simplistic in thought patterns than humans, but to assert what all cats believe based on an incorrect reporting on John Bradshaw's studies of cats is just plain wrong- please do a quick search! You'll see there are conflicting reports of what his book seems to claim, but he himself does not assert that that's what cats literally believe. 😬

    Edit to add: here's the article where he's being interviewed about it, and the relevant part!

    "I've read articles where you've said cats think of us as big, stupid cats. Is that accurate?

    No. In the book [I say] that cats behave toward us in a way that's indistinguishable from [how] they would act toward other cats. They do think we're clumsy: Not many cats trip over people, but we trip over cats.

    But I don't think they think of us as being dumb and stupid, since cats don't rub on another cat that's inferior to them."

  • I don't know about everyone else, but the way my partner describes being horny and not being able to turn it off sometimes really concerns me, like it seems to me that having something so distracting and in the forefront of your mind constantly would be really upsetting, like an addiction, and how would you focus on other things when that's happening? I definitely believe the composition of the human body and the reliance on chemicals and hormones is a huge hinderence to our further intellectual evolution. Obviously overall they are super necessary in the functioning of our bodies and were integral in our evolution up to this point, but now that we have the ability to be sapient and have the technology within our grasp to one day separate the mind from the squishy, fallible, salty meat sacks, my vote is wholeheartedly for a cyborg existence. My back hurts and my head hurts and and I'm too hot and too cold and dehydrated and hungry and I need to pee and that is just too many obstacles between me and the knowledge and betterment of humanity I crave.
