Yeah! Why are modern games so political?! The classics were so much more nuanced. I remember when Wolfenstein 3D came out… My favorite part playing that game was how ambiguous the creators were about the inspiration for the bad guys.

You ever chew honey roasted peanuts until they taste like peanut butter in your mouth? Almost as good as a spoonful of whatever mass-produced peanut butter is waiting for you in your pantry. Almost…

How redneck we getting? Mix lots of sugar with a tiny bit of water, then microwave it in 10 second bursts until it starts to turn a darker brown, then mix in a spoonful of peanut butter. Keep mixing and folding until you start to see strands, then stop. Top with Nutella and refrigerate.
Now you’ve made the Butterfingers you never knew you needed.

I had something similar! I got some sick airtime while off-roading with my cousins in my 1995 4Runner, and when my back wheels caught a hidden hill, I bent my axles! But I was able to easily fix them by hitting my wallet with a $1,500 bill, and then crying a lot.

I work in public education. That’s a pretty innocuous statement compared to some of the shit I’ve heard. Some teachers get so complacent in their lessons that they forget to apply it in their critical-thinking. Then, they have some crazy logical lapse, say something ridiculous out loud, and then some other kid from that class repeats that same shit to their own students when they grow up. These are mistakes that could easily be rectified with an apology or deliberate correction, but teachers are pushed so hard to prioritize being an authority figure that they sometimes forget to just be a teacher.

Here is the solar system. The planets are the people in the swings, the sun is the center of the ride. The gravitational force from the sun are the cables supporting the riders.
Spinning swingsEven though our speed circling the solar system is preventing our planet from falling into the sun, from the perspective of the planet, it doesn’t feel like we’re just leisurely floating. It feels a little more like this
GravitronJust like on any spinny ride, if you find a way off of it while it’s still going, it gives you a little boost away from itself
Spinny whoopsComparatively, the energy required to fly off the ride
Too fast
is nearly passive next to the energy required to claw your way to the center

- Comment on Copper 2 weeks ago:
I had a roommate who was getting his doctorate in chemical engineering, specifically focused on graphene. He was able to demonstrate how doping the materials in a heat sink to alter their ability to “release” heat, and then organizing these intentional hotspots along the length of the fins, you could create an active airflow using a stationary object.
But then his lab manager killed his grant and instead put him on a project partnered with BMW to make their bumpers more marketable.

I know this anecdote is very unique, but my wife found a tiny puppy that was incredibly sick. Everywhere we knew of was closed, except for Banfield. The tech who took him back told us that all of the health conditions they could identify were easily treatable, but very expensive. They later called us to pick up the puppy and confirmed that everything was treatable but would cost hundreds of dollars. She gave us some recommendations for food and care, told us to go buy those items, and then meet her in the parking lot in half an hour when she gets off work; she’d give us advice on where to find cheap medicine. When we met her in the parking lot, she gave us a paper bag filled with all the medicines we’d need. We asked how we should pay for them, and she said, “fuck this place, I stole them. You can pay for the medications by never bringing another pet to Banfield.”

I tell my wife all the time: if you can at least put it in the fridge, then it won’t go bad. If I don’t like where you put it, I can always reorganize later. I can’t un-spoil food.
