- Comment on How does one figure out what to do, after getting out and done with high school? 1 day ago:
My opinion is that you need to find some hobbies, like number one most important thing. Your hobbies are your true vocation, work is what you do to pay for them. Start small if you’re not rolling in money, there are lots of cheap ways to make art, or you could learn to cook more from scratch. Try out a musical instrument, write some bad poetry, build a Gundam model.
Finding work for now does not have to determine your career. Temp agencies are actually kind of great (in an icky sort of way) because they already found a lot of the jobs from office buildings to warehouses to factories. In fact a whole lot of companies only hire through temp agencies. If you want to try a trade walk up to a local shop and ask if they need a green helper.

Yeah, no point in talking to someone who isn’t talking back. Most folks I meet out seem to be dying for someone to talk to though.

I talk to folks around me all the time. Standing in line for checkout at a store or something? I’ma talk to you.
I don’t walk up on folks out of nowhere, but if we are in near proximity for more than a minute, I’ma talk to you.
- Comment on why do reverse thrusters work on an airplane, but a fan on a sailboat doesn't work? 1 week ago:
A sail boat isn’t really pushed by the wind. The sail acts more like a wing and the difference in air pressure going around it is what actually moves the boat.
- Comment on Why is the general consensus for making pan fried gyoza/dumplings at home to fry then steam in pan but restaurants par-boil then pan fry? 1 week ago:

Grandma respects your wishes. Maybe try not being a disingenuous prick and accept kindness and gifts when offered.

- Comment on Happy labor day to real workers 1 month ago:
You’re right, they should be paid “well”, but currently they are grossly overpaid for the amount of actual work we get out of them, and regular people are already priced out of running in the first place. That needs to be corrected. There’s also no reason whatsoever for them to receive a pension for the rest of their unnatural lives, not congress, not the president, no elected official ever. There need to be term limits for every elected seat and every fucking one of them needs to make do with the same healthcare options that every one of us has. But lobbying with gifts and money must be outlawed outright. Insider trading must be outlawed outright. And these rules need to be enforced, strictly with harsh punishment for those who seek to personally profit from their “service”.
- Comment on Happy labor day to real workers 1 month ago:
Then that’s what a senate seat should pay, and only paying when actual work is being done.

Are you trying to make a single serving boil? I’m not sure that will work.
