  Sounds like neighbor problem, not a firework one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do many folks play follow the leader even into adulthood?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For sure. Humans are super social and our big brains enable so much verbal, nonverbal, and written communication that we became more efficient as a group. All the greatest things out there, bridges and sky scrapers and roads were built by teams, not an individual, because of our strong communication skills.

  Never heard the equine reference before. Anyone know where that came from?

  You made a post about how great the design is based on screenshots? And didn’t think to use the site yourself?

  Oops! All fascists! I’ll assume good faith here so I suggest you close the door, back away slowly, and hope no one saw you in there.

  Find the right men. There are 4 billion men out there and many are able to communicate and be there for friends. It may take moving into some peripheral spaces where different experiences and points of view are appreciated.

  But I think this adds to the layers. They are both confused and lonely and unsure of what’s next, one at the beginning of her career and one near the end. They recognize a bit of themselves in each other and also their need for love and acceptance. The little bit of physical stuff between them comes across as awkward because they then realize that even they mistook their feelings briefly for sexual attraction but it was actually more existential than that. In a way this reveals them both a little more innocent and unsure of themselves, which ultimately made it endearing.

  While a big age difference can be suggestive of predatory behavior, Bill’s character never came across that way. This is definitely an edge that Sofia Coppola skirted and I’m not sure if a male director could do it as deftly.

  Are you getting enough oxygen?

  Workers rights absolutely. Pay your human workers even while using ai to make a great product. AI didn’t do anything to me, it’s how the companies decide to use it.

  Tylenol can be taken with ibuprofen to increase pain relief. Just don’t overdo it.

  I played the whole thing on ps5, did about 90 hours. It’s good now. Especially the mantis blades that come out of your arms and the quick hacks that let you control the cameras then hack all the guards so they shoot themselves or fry their implants. I did a ninja hacker build. Totally op but it was still fun. And I’ve heard good things about the gorilla arms.

  The city feels more alive on ps5, lots of people, and I never had any issues with the cars or motorcycle glitching. If you like cyberpunk stuff it’s worth it and the dlc is coming out. There are areas where you can tell where they had to pull back, like the clothing options which all suck and the body stuff which has no purpose or unless you are changing clothes. Also I didn’t like V’s voice character at first but it grew on me. The acting is good all around.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the US, what happens if you sustain a life threatening injury and you don't have insurance?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not exactly. Medical debt is different compared to retail debt like credit cards. It still sucks but the rules are different to protect people at least a little bit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone is going around my neighbourhood and sticking anti semitic messages to street lights.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You have to be a little careful: by sharing it here, even as something you are against, you have made the message travel farther than a few shitty printed leaflets. Nazis like games and double-meanings and codes because they know they can’t openly support posts like this, but the goal is always to “spread the message”. You may have inadvertently played into their hands.

  Yes, but in a much larger way. In Texas alone, changes to the law last year have resulted in 9,000 excess births compared to before. This is a future source of tax revenue and labor. Many states are losing young people to better jobs, opportunity, and quality of life and this helps slow that loss.

  Cities, states, and countries get their money from taxes. Sales, income, or property tax paid by people and companies goes directly to pay for things like firefighters, park benches, and health and safety inspections.

  Politicians get their money from companies who want to change laws in their favor. Different companies support different candidates depending on their needs.
