  Anonymous alcholics don’t tend to have books in my experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon stopped supporting your Kindle, now what?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I did when my Kindle broke, and although its awesome to just grab a book off of AA on my mobile browser and immediately be able to open it, the eye strain sucks compared to those old e-ink screens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Teachers deserve more money.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  No, OP doesn’t understand it fully or isn’t describing the process well.

  Every year a budget is set that determines the total teacher FTE (full time equivalent). If the number is higher than last year, new teachers will be hired. If it’s lower, it means teachers will be fired.

  Teachers are not hired (fired) at the end of school year/beginning of next year. The way it usually works are the principals have a giant bid process kind of like a draft. Teachers that have tenure (usually 5+ years, but depends on district) are guaranteed a seat and get first pick of their preferred school, grade and subject. All of the other teachers then put in the 3 favorite schools and they get assigned based on principals trading them around.

  So if the budget changes during COVID, let’s say dramatic spending on technology, it reduces the amount of teacher FTE. That means in some districts, classroom sizes are increased and non tenured teachers are not rehired. But this isn’t true everywhere, it was just a small trend during COVID due to changing budget priorities for that year.

  I never did any of that stuff, nor does anyone I know. A minority of, often younger riders, give a bad impression.

  You can be as safe as you want but when another car merges into you on the highway, there is nothing you can do other than evasive manuevers and hope that you don’t get killed.

  Want to make the roads safe? Actually enforce distracted driving, it’s almost as if not just as dangerous as drunk driving, and we take away licences for that. Retest drivers and riders every 5 years, and every 3 years for anyone over 65.

  As a former rider who had a very quite bike and almost got killed by a driver, I totally understand the desire to have a noisy bike. Noisy bikes save lives.

  Doesn’t Ceylon Cinnamon have negligible amounts of coumarin compared to Cassia?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Truly the smartest person of our time⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the information is broad and entertaining and a place to find concepts to research further, but beyond that you kind of need to take everything with a truckload of salt. Although that’s everything nowadays, everything has an agenda, probably always has.

  Its hit normie circles and he has takes that some might consider anti-Semitic which is most of the reason he is so popular/controversial right now.

  From my understanding Alladin is racist just in a really lazy way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Truly the smartest person of our time⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The takes on this guy on 4chins is funny because it’s clear from the comments none of them have attended a lecture before or advanced beyond the remedial classes they needed to get their HS diploma.

  Like yeah, that’s how education works. You take concepts that everybody understands and build upon them to teach new concepts.

  Pretty good English to intuitively recognize that. My brain just autocorrected to “Scientist says”.

  ROFLcopter or Rolling on the floor laughing like a helicopter is when something is so funny that you fall you of your seat laughing and you start kicking yourself giddily around the floor in a circle like a helicopter rotor.

  I feel like British culture viloates everything but the alcohol. There are memes about how weak their food and criminals are.

  Weird legal theories. They propose that Congress authorizes spending, but does not impose it. Therefore because Article II Section 3 requires “the President to ensure laws are faithfully executed”, he then controls how the department functions (if it all, apparently) and if there is leftover money it reverts to the Treasury.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the difference between anarchy and libertarianism?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean game theory kind of dictates that to achieve a system of anarchy you would need to assassinate a lot of powerful actors. Although that seems to be polling high right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the difference between anarchy and libertarianism?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And progressive taxes

  Sometimes I have this weird theory that RFK Jr is really like a Dr. Zoidberg type alien in a skin suit. He just kind of guesses at how human anatomy works because he isn’t human himself and isn’t professional enough to get a real education on the subject.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Science isn't political!"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why your sick. You need to constantly be in the sun without sunscreen, look at RFK jr’s healthy glow as a good example of prime health.

  If your not feeding your tummy plants with the sunlight it needs your not living healthy.

  They didnt vote on it as far as I know. MJ just won’t allow it to be brought for a vote because it would probably pass.

  Almost every real world case of weed being laced was from an end user doing it on purpose or it was a simple contamination error.

  What kind of dumb argument is that? If you worked from home you could still take a morning and afternoon bike ride. And you could actually go some place new or run an errand.

  They will waive that if they have to, plus RFK wants to get rid of those along with SSRIs.
