It’s just indicating NASA is dealing with budget cuts. It takes away another outlet for people to see the good work they do

Sure, but you won’t get guys at a bar trying to lure you onto pissing in their mouth or exchange Cleveland steamers. But most women have had a guy go straight to “nice toes”

Yeah, being into feet isn’t inherently bad. But foot fetishists are always so damn creepy about it.

It’s not like smoking pot is any better for your lungs. I’m no stranger to smoking tobacco in various forms though, and mainly take my THC via hime made edibles, although i still smoke plenty of it as well
- Comment on Anon discovers cigarettes 2 weeks ago:
Spiffs are just so much smoother, and nice tobacco has a good taste to it. We would always spliff our blunts in college.

Those “luxury” apartments are just plywood and sheetrock byult as fast and cheap as possible. They look good at first glance but start to come apart after just a couple years.

One thing that is important to note is that King Arthur was sorta used as a template for story telling in medieval England, Wales, and France. There are dozens of conflicting stories and accounts because some tales are from the 7th century, and some are from the 14th. King Arthur and The knights of the round table are essentially a folk hero tale for the nobility of the middle ages.
Thomas Malory’s Le Morte D’Arthur is the first compilation of Arthurian tales that were collected, but it was written in the 15th century and can be a real bear to read if you want something more casual.

- Comment on Anon describes currency 4 weeks ago:
Only officially. The US effectivly dropped the gold standard in 1933 because it was making the Great Depression worse. Money was completely stagnant, and the federal worl projects FDR championed to get the economy moving again couldn’t be funded when the government couldn’t get access to more gold.

It used to be so much fun to watch my chihuahua mind her own business and then just say “outside?” to watch her go totally stiff and freeze. Then i would say “Outaide?” again and she would go absolutely ballistic

12 years ago Skype and team speak were the go to for voice chat for gaming. Once someone comes up with a less shitty platform, everyone will start to migrate again.

Dissect him how I may, then, I but go skin deep; I know him not, and never will. But if I know not even the tail of this whale, how understand his head? much more, how comprehend his face, when face he has none? Thou shalt see my back parts, my tail, he seems to say, but my face shall not be seen. But I cannot completely make out his back parts; and hint what he will about his face, I say again he has no face.

- Comment on Panic! on the trade floor 2 months ago:
Europe is in the midst of a massive housing crisis.
Canada has possibly the worst housing crisis in the developed world
Korean homes are 3x as much in the major cities as smaller rural cities.
Housing has been consuming a larger and larger chunk of people’s incomes for the past 15 years. That’s a cost of living crisis. Because the 2008 crash allowed the wealthy to pick up all the pieces and restart the game using the exact same rules. Nothing changed, nothing improved, neoiberals just painted over the foundational cracks of our society and said everything is fine now. The finacialization of every aspect of our lives has only become more extreme, so i would definitely say the 2008 crisis was never actually solved.
- Comment on Panic! on the trade floor 2 months ago:
Replacing salaried desk jobs with hourly wages and no pay increase isn’t exactly employment growth. If everything recovered just fine, why are millennials miles behind where their parents were at a similar age? Homeownership has been steadily declining, savings accounts have steadily been dwindling, and the rate of Americans living paycheck to paycheck has only gone up in the past 20 years. That’s not a recovery, it’s an adaptation to a new normal.
- Comment on Panic! on the trade floor 2 months ago:
Idk how you can say it ended when the fundamental causes of the collapse were never addressed, the perpetrators were never punished, and the middle class continued to shrink. Stocks were pretty much the only thing that improved since 2008.

I’m ready Moby Dick for the first yime right now and i absolutely love it! I love stories about the sea. I want to reread it again in a few years and do a journal about the book. I wanna be one of those freaks that writes a report about every chapter. I’ll post every one on my blog and forward the post to my aunt who’s a retired highschool English teacher. Let her know all those years as a public teacher weren’t for nothing.
