So I’m on the top floor of a 2 story house (floor 1 in British). You’re on the ground floor. Would you say that I’m “up on the first floor” if someone asked where I was? That seems very weird to me.

It’s the same story with almost all of their stuff. They let their creators be really weird in the opening episodes and then it eventually boils down to the Marvel Formula halfway through and becomes a boring mess.
School isn’t just learning the stuff in the classes. It’s the shared experience too. It’s the teachers holding you accountable for learning.
“Going to school” is a very different thing than just trying to learn on your own. Self motivation and time are a huge barrier for a lot of people. I think the OP was imagining being able to go to school every day and just take classes for free with other people also interested.
It’s honestly a pretty fun game! It is Overwatch+Dota and the way they’ve done landing/farming with last hits and denies in a shooter is really interesting.
Team fights are fairly chaotic and I can’t tell what’s going on, and honestly there might be too much complexity, but the moment to moment gameplay is really solid. Movement and shooting feel great, combat is chunky and satisfying, and comebacks are semi common.
IDK if I have the desire to get into another MOBA like this, but this is unique enough to enjoy playing with friends for awhile.
It’s really great, isn’t it? I tried to get some friends into it but it seems like I’m the only one who enjoys rhythm games. I really like The Magician I think
Isn’t that the status quo? I guess it’s not really fathers to daughters, but most women I know went through some amount of “here’s how to be a good wife” lessons from their mothers or family. I think women get a lot of “traditional gender roles” training that’s mostly about being caretakers.
Usually people putting forth this kinda “women should learn how to care for their man” attitude are coming from a conservative “traditional family values” position.
Really, we should be teaching people how to ask about and learn the needs of their partner, and how to determine your own needs and communicate those to your partner. Basic emotional intelligence stuff. It doesn’t have to be gendered at all.
I think these types of moral questions aren’t actually that useful, because the actual problem at the heart of it (and at most things) is the difference in power.
Instead of asking “what age should temporary prostitution be legal,” maybe we should ask "why have we concentrated so much excess power in the hands of this one guy who can drop a life changing payment for a one time service and still have plenty left over? Does it really make sense to try to come up with an arbitrary age that we’ve decided you’re immune to coersion?
This entire moral quandary doesn’t really exist in the (admittedly idealistic) world where power isn’t so unequally distributed.
Call it whatever you want, it’s just an enjoyable new sport that a lot of people like. I’ll never get why people feel superior about not liking something that other people like.
It’s basically a cross between tennis and ping pong. The court is smaller, you play with a whiffle-ball type ball and hard paddle. There’s a spot right by the net called the “kitchen” where you can’t stand in while you volley.
It’s honestly just a fun game. It’s easier to pick up than tennis, and it’s more fun to play doubles. It’s also a little less physically taxing, it’s a really nice level of activity. Give it a shot sometime.
It’s one thing for a politician to say whatever to get elected and then go the opposite way. Actually changing positions based on new information and what you think is what voters need is exactly what a politician SHOULD do. I never get this complaint… I guess it’s just that people don’t trust that politicians are ever genuine?
I don’t necessarily disagree, and everyone is different, but you should consider that it’s not just you that changes. You change WITH your partner. You grow TOGETHER. I am absolutely different than I was 10 years ago, and so is she, but that doesn’t mean that we’re no longer compatible. Our growth contributed to each other’s growth.
I do think people should be maybe… less attached? You should regularly evaluate your relationship to see if it’s working. Shared interests aren’t even always necessary (as long as they at least show interest in what you like and vice versa). But that is very hard and many people would rather not be alone.
A friend of mine had some unexpected health issues, and lost a ton of weight. They looked good before and after, but they were really uncomfortable when people would “compliment” them on their “weight loss”. It wasn’t something that they had tried to do, and it was a reminder of the health problems that they’d been struggling with.
I think complimenting someone’s body AFTER they’ve told you they’ve been working on it (or if it’s obvious they’ve been working on it, say with muscle gain) is totally fine, but their experience really changed my mind on those types of compliments.
Sometimes something that you’d think was 100% a compliment can have other effects. My friend wasn’t necessarily upset at the people who thought they were complementing them, but the best compliments are for who a person is and how they make the world around them better.
The Switch controllers connect via Bluetooth and can be paired with a computer no problem. Not sure why these would be different
I hit a deer while listening to the band Deerhunter. Was a bit surreal.
Somebody convince me I’m wrong.
There is no reason to display “100%” in your UI for more than a single second. Either show 99% and then finish, or show 100% only when you are ACTUALLY done and only show it for a little.
If you’re still doing ANYTHING AT ALL don’t say you’re 100% complete. How is it still like this
It’s similar to confirmation bias, but I think that’s the wrong name for the phenomenon. Confirmation bias is when we don’t question things that align with our world view and reject things that don’t align with it. It’s certainly related to a desire for a sense of superiority, but there is something about that specific rush of neurotransmitters.
Lol only conservatives have made the ridiculous statement that “Biden is the most left wing president.” That is hilarious though.
Reno is an awesome town now, you should check it out.
Isn’t the game locked to 60?
I’ve always heard that weed smokers have less dreams, but as someone who kinda started doing it more regularly within the last year, I haven’t experienced that? Honestly I think I tend to have more vivid and weird dreams when I’ve smoked before bed. Do some people not get the REM suppression?
