- Comment on Is There A Source For Unbiased Election Results As They Happen? 2 weeks ago:
In terms of unbiased and factual numbers about the electoral college that isn’t part of the reporting. I like the minute to minute reporting as much as most other people. It’s just not relevant for the process.
- Comment on Is There A Source For Unbiased Election Results As They Happen? 2 weeks ago:
No. That isn’t how elections work. Only once polling places close will the totals begin and only on a state by state basis will the totally tally’s be known.
Your going to have to wait about a week to know.

- Comment on Leopards Are Telling You That They Will Eat YOUR Face 3 weeks ago:
Very well could have been. I have gotten jaded enough to doubt a publication changing to better suit readership.
For whatever reason it was written this is 100% what needed to be said.

Man I love me some Otherwords. The new PBS is just as good as the old.
- Comment on Leopards Are Telling You That They Will Eat YOUR Face 3 weeks ago:
While it’s happening they will call the Leopards democrats. The media should have had this message this clear for months, not days. I have a feeling this only happened because Trump started directly threatening major news outlets.
- Comment on what has worked for you to stop getting angry thinking about people who hurt you? 10 months ago:
Your life, physical and then professional were both threatened. The things you mentioned aren’t little oopsies. These are well beyond normal. You describe being assaulted and abused. Those aren’t suck it up and learn situations. That isn’t a regular kind of problem. You should seek trauma counseling.
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 10 months ago:
This experience predates the AI fad.
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 10 months ago:
no and it’s ALL googles fault. It’s not a walled garden problem, It’s a google problem. I’m searching for specific items to buy and look for small shops with online presences. Google will NOT give me results for shops that don’t advertise with them. I can even type the name of the shop into the search. Sometimes Bing, sometimes duck duck go will give the results.
I can have the site open in one window and use another to type the description of an item I am looking at AND the name of the site I am searching on google and it’s like ‘Nope’ never heard of them. i have to type the url in to the search bar then it will return a link.
Now sponsored links pop up a plenty.
We are the product being sold to advertisers. Search is working as intended.
- Comment on Does anyone drink instant coffee anymore? 1 year ago:
$8 buys a container of instant coffee and a single cappuccino is $6.
I’d love Starbucks everyday.I drink instant coffee, because money.
Sort of like asking with restaurants around everywhere does anyone bother to cook. It’s awesome but cup noodles will hit the spot as well.

- Comment on Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man? 1 year ago:
Yes.
People always judge personal waste as something they don’t enjoy. It’s fun to hate on people who enjoy things.
I have never went but the people I know who go have been going so long that their kids are bringing their kids. It sounds like a great community event where most of the point is to meet the people who go there.
The desert is usually a good place to host a mass event since it is a flat large area. By definition rain is rare in a desert.

- Comment on Check out my big egg plant 1 year ago:
This is legit impressive. It seems there should be a gardening place for something this epic.
- Comment on don't be shy, speak your mind 1 year ago:
Depends on the plant and task. Soaker gets tons of use on dry plants to let them make deep roots.
I use just when messing with hornets.
Center to wash down squirrels when it’s over 100
- Comment on Is America Really That Bad? 1 year ago:
Depending on where you are from. No. If you live in a place where gangs can roam the street challenging the police, unemployment is 15+% and corruption is rampant. The USA will be better.
Yes. If you come from a place with moderate laws, healthcare and representative government the USA could be worse to much worse.

- Comment on What is the worst US state to live in generally? 1 year ago:
Sounds like you live in an expensive pocket, like near beach or a special neighborhood.
Use google to find gas near you it lists out prices . I was just in garden grove yesterday. Gas was 4.80 to 5.20. If you are driving a sports car that needs premium gas your going to pay more to enjoy more .
I took my extended family out in garden grove , 7 people for dinner at $130 before tip to a decent sit down place. McDonalds and Taco Bell at 6-10 for a meal.
Even near Disney in Anaheim prices are better than you listed out. I can grab a full meal at Denny’s for about 12-15.
When I first moved to ca I lived in a cool community where I could afford rent. Daily life was so expensive I was riding the bus an hour to get groceries.
Now pay more in rent and less in everything else in a boring place. Moving a few miles will make a difference for you. - Comment on What is the worst US state to live in generally? 1 year ago:
Where do you live to see prices like that? Gas is 4.80 or so and no fast food is $15. That maybe is a fast casual restaurant.
- Comment on Why do most religious conservatives support capitalist ideology? 1 year ago:
So I don’t agree with it , but it may have something to do with ‘work’ there is part of Christianity that assigns value to work and that work will be rewarded by god. They are supposed to be works of faith, but some sects of Christianity assigns value to all work.
So they see riches as a just reward from god for being hardworking and honest. They inherently see riches as a reward for good work and poverty as a punishment for lack of ethic. As well anyone can better their position and get rich by becoming more aligned with god. So bring rich is an outward manifestation of one’s reward from God.
This is a simplification and extrapolates out a bunch of things.
- Comment on Christopher Nolan Forgot To Credit Over 80% Of VFX Crew On ‘Oppenheimer’ 1 year ago:
This is pretty normal. When I worked in vfx the studio I worked for took out pages in variety to give everyone a credit.
Most of the people who work on a film don’t get credit. There is above the line and below the line , they get credit. Most people aren’t even on the page.
I was able to get a credit once and my parents were proud.
