Exactly, that’s one of the ritual purposes I was referring to
- Comment on Anon is a carpenter 1 day ago:
Most people in USA suburbs leave from and return to their house in a car 99% of the time, so effectively the garage door is the front door of the house, and the actual front door is vestigial and kept for ritualist purposes.

OP said this was a commercial build, nothing to do with the housing market 🫠

The part that made me think it was fake was the workbench. Who has an actual workbench at a jobsite? I’m not saying it’s never happened, but I’ve never seen it.

I was more talking about the persons attitude about ADHD/ASD when referring to their lack of empathy.
There are too many of us. The more of us there are, the less all of us are worth.
I disagree. All human life has value and it appears that our population growth will slow before we reach earth’s carrying capacity anyway.
People are going to do this anyway.
Some of you fascists already are, like the people advocating eugenics in this thread even though we all know what happened in WWII. You say “people are going to do this anyway,” I say, we defeated fascism once, and we’ll do it again.

I obviously don’t advocate for child neglect, but I also don’t think eugenics will solve child neglect. What you’re describing is poverty, and it isn’t helped by eugenics.
I also don’t think the earth is currently overpopulated, and it seems that our population growth will slow before the planet does become overpopulated. So I don’t think we have any need for population control whatsoever.

It should be a completely random lotery for a lucky 5 million people.
And then you go on to describe a situation which is anything but random
Should also be people with higher empathy
This comes off as extremely ironic given the general lack of empathy you’re showing
After that, there should be an emphasis on food consumption (people who need less food on average get a higher weight in the lottery).
what about this is “completely random”

who should reproduce?
Anyone who wants to
how do we determine who that is?
By letting people have kids if they want

Occam’s Razor, we have to accept the simplest solution with no evidence to the contrary. Dragons are real
- Comment on It was a simpler time 1 week ago:
This was never the reason. It was to do with factories saving on electric lighting during WWI, by getting their workers out an hour earlier. Then after WWII we just kept it going for some reason

Couldn’t be me. I have an entire apartment to store snacks in

Try an actual washcloth or towel sometime. Way better than toilet paper imo. Throw it in the laundry after use, it’s not gross and it’s more environmentally friendly.

Tartness is just on the tip of the tongue, sourness is everywhere in the mouth.
Tart = good palate cleanser, gets you ready for the next thing
Sour = everything you eat after tastes sour, too
- Comment on Mmm, roasted apples. 2 weeks ago:
Apples are so interesting because the old ones were definitely pretty bland, and not for eating fresh. More for cooking into pies, or cider. But also we’ve experienced some apple enshittification due to mass marketing/long distance shipping. Imo peak apple varietals for direct eating are ones that were popular in the 1920’s/30’s; in the context of the USA, these mean the orchards planted by New Deal/CCC operations are usually a good bet.

Yep, one of my favorite comparisons is that Germany is about the same size as Montana

You could use a measuring cup and a funnel. Fill the flask with water, then pour it out into the empty measuring cup to figure out its volume

“26 + 6” in Cyrillic is “26 + 6”

Normal people never used the internet for fun until Facebook lol. It was all freaks during the alleged golden age, that’s what made it great.

That’s me. I appreciate the hell out of some enamel

I realize this is probably hilariously unrealistic but. I prescribe a kitchen remodel. They have all kinds of designs for folks in wheelchairs that you could use with just a regular chair

Another problem that would never happen with knobs!

How else are you gonna teach those lazy toddlers to cook? Smdh
- Comment on Let us end the stovetop war with the real chanp 3 weeks ago:
That’s worse. Don’t make me pull my phone out of my pocket to change temp. Absolutely embarrassing that this idea got to production.

I live in Seattle, and this has been my experience. Techno-city powered by dams = reliable

It’s an acronym for Smalterie Metallurgiche Emiliane Guastalla. They’re actually a pretty high end brand, but yes, the name is amusing
- Comment on Let us end the stovetop war with the real chanp 3 weeks ago:
If there was a problem with the wiring, wouldn’t conventional electric also have issues?
- Comment on Let us end the stovetop war with the real chanp 3 weeks ago:
Dang, that sucks. I’m still daily using an electric stove from the 1950’s lol. I would love it if modern “environmentally friendly” appliances could last this long
