But if you can turn that shit on like a tap why not do for everyone?
I would think because they aren’t aware of it.

I don’t follow you. Trump’s delivering on his promises, so women shouldn’t vote?

You don’t need to imagine. She’s telling you. She’s against it.

That’s funny. I have no problem drawing circles in GIMP.

People learned on Photoshop, and then they’re upset because GIMP does things differently. I guarantee you if somebody had learned on GIMP first, it would be the other way around.
There’s nothing intuitive about Photoshop. If you pick it up with zero knowledge and try to do anything, you can’t. You have to take a class to learn how to use it, same as GIMP.

Sorry, Joplin is a nightmare. I want something that stores Markdown in flat files, not a database with changing versions where one version of the db doesn’t work in another version.
I tried to port the database over from another system, but the new version of Joplin wouldn’t read from the old version’s database, and it would corrupt the database when I tried to open it. What a crock of shit. I had to figure out how to dump the data from the tables using sqlite.
I use nb now instead. It is a bit wonky because it uses NodeJS, but you can view and edit files in a web browser, and it saves each entry as a .md file, which is the sane and rational way to do it. So, if nb ever fucks off, I have all my work in a directory of Markdown files, not some broken-ass sqlite database.

Although staying hydrated will keep your energy levels up, tea has caffeine in it, too. As long as you’re eating food once in awhile, you don’t need to worry about electrolytes.

I have ADHD, and it’s the opposite: I’m very sensitive to caffeine.

Epic video. After watching it, I gained a newfound appreciation for dubstep while also having to admit I have no idea what it actually is.
(I still kinda like Skrillex, though.)

- Comment on Petty pedantry 4 weeks ago:
Keep in mind that idioms follow their own rules. Down to earth, what on earth, and move heaven and earth do not capitalize the planet, and four corners of the earth or salt of the earth take the definite article.
“On earth” (e.g. “richest man on earth”) is one of those idioms, so the E is lowercase. See the first entry here.
Idiom: on earth Among all the possibilities: Why on earth did you put on that outfit?
- Comment on Petty pedantry 4 weeks ago:
It isn’t even an error, though. It’s just wrong. “Earth” should be lowercase. I can understand being pedantic, but pedantic and wrong is super irritating.

So, “Breaking News Susan Crawford”?
- Comment on Petty pedantry 4 weeks ago:
How would you write that, then?
- Comment on Petty pedantry 4 weeks ago:
My dictionary says it’s lower-case. I’ve only ever seen it in lower-case, unless you’re taking about it in the astronomical sense (e.g. “the planet Earth”).

Interesting that you consider reddit a news site.

It’s like joining a cult. They don’t bust out the crazy until after they’ve hooked you. Fortunately, all of the crazies I’ve dated showed their true colors pretty early.

I just work on myself because trying to get into a relationship is too exhausting.
One of the biggest losers I ever met had a very devoted girlfriend. No job, and he defaulted on his rent for several months, forcing another roommate to cover for him (whom he never paid back). Eventually, he moved out of our place and moved in with her. She seemed nice, but not too smart. I remember she didn’t understand the concept of “satire”…that is, she didn’t even recognize the word.
So yeah, I think that pretty much anybody can get into a relationship, if you lower your standards far enough. The question is: how low are you willing to go?

I’m happy that kombucha is popular now, and you can buy it in the store. What I’m not happy about is you can’t find plain flavor! It always has some kind of fruit juice in it.
