Having family that likes playing board games is the best thing.

Do we as the left no longer believe in rehabilitative justice?

Just found out it costs "over $100" to get a flu shot at Walgreens without insurance. Being poor is very expensive.

Reminder as we enter the mid-terms: Voting is a zero-sum game, not a personality test! Not voting because of some ideological nitpick is mathematically identical to voting for the opposition.

I think a big problem with modern "adults" (people that are older than me) is that they don't realize when you are hand-holding them through something that they should know how to do and there is no polite way to explain that frustration.

When you say "I'm really into movies" no one assumes that you like all movies. When you say you're "really into board games" it's like 30 seconds until Monopoly is mentioned and you have to explain that there are some games you don't like.

Honestly I wish people would be more open about things they don't support. It's seen as really rude to say things that are unsupportive but I really wish people would tell me if they earnestly think I am making bad decisions.

Whenever I see big public discussions about video games I feel like I am losing my mind. You're paying too much? You need a $2000 GPU? You just spent how much for a new game? I just played one of the best games of my life on my 15 year-old PC and it was like $5. What are you guys doing?

What if Mitch is actually dead and the plan is to have "him" stay in power but it's actually just Trump's team telling them what to AI generate him saying so the executive effectively controls the senate?

if there is anything my time as a library worker has taught me, it is that being made to feel uncomfortable is very different from being unsafe. and more people could stand to learn that as well

Text based games are really fun and easy to work on. You can focus so much more on the GAME part of the game.

If you're paying attention to season 10 like I am, the setup for the finale is pretty obvious. Super giga El Nino does a massive number on the poorest reddest states this summer, the Trump defunded FEMA can't do anything about it. This is the final blow to the MAGA dynasty and midterms are swept.

It will never not be funny that the Republicans, via Trump, have done the greatest and maybe final push to renewables than anyone on the left. Iran and Ukraine have shown the world that oil is not the future.

Sending multiple texts in a row is so unprofessional. In a professional context, please write all of your thoughts into a message and then send it. It's just common courtesy.

Guys I am begging you not to fall into the "pro-AI vs anti-AI" trap. Autocorrect is AI, protein folding is AI, speech to text is AI. Machine learning is not evil. It's a tool that can be used in good and bad ways. We can agree genAI images suck and are gross and also that text to speech is nice!

The black and white thinking of society at large is so dangerous and bad. I wonder if it has always been like this. Dialectics are so important. Things can be bad and good at the same time. Please stop treating reality like team sports.

Alright, the comments on this one are upsetting. I would expect better of the average user on this site. Tl;dr, these are just lab tests. The smell test alone should tell you "there probably isn't very much energy in rain drops in the first place." Can we please be good internet citizens?
