This is the way.

Yeah, I guess left-leaning white males are just as underprivileged and oppressed as people of color and women. We should rename it to “conservative white male privilege.”

My high school had a pretty big exchange program (up until COVID) mainly from China, Vietnam, and Spain, and I hung out with them all the time after school, and some of them even more 😅. Very pleasant experience getting to know about them and where they came from, and it was always super fun and interesting to see how they would react or approach American customs or even that of the other exchange students.

Was super bummed out when COVID disrupted that.

Why are you conflating “ghetto”, “gangsta,” and black? 95% of it is about where and how you grew up.

There’s plenty of white guys who, although will never experience and understand what it’s like to live in America while black, understand the struggle of growing up in the ghettos, being socioeconomically alienated, and being pressured to look to the “gangsta” lifestyle.

These three can often overlap, but are importantly separate things. A white guy in that situation won’t know what it means to be black like I do, but I will never have a fraction of their knowledge and experience of what it means to grow up to the streets.

Thinking that they have the “one simple trick” for everything when most matters are actually a complex network of issues where there isn’t one answer.

~40 hours literally a few days ago. Had a project due date through which I procrastinated heavily. Not proud of that one.

I don’t think I experienced any hallucinations, but it sucked. What was weird was that by hour ~33, I tried going to sleep, but failed and ultimately got back up. Hopefully never again.

Edit: just occurred to me as well that of that time, I worked for 20 straight hours. Don’t be like me.

In about five hours I’m getting rinsed by my MMO of choice.

It’s gotten to a point where I just go ahead append a warning that I have no source and am just making casual conversation.

I’ve heard the maxim that money doesn’t change who you are, but it amplifies. I think that tends to be true. However, the people you are exposed to in light of that money I think definitely can change who you are.

So yes, money can lead to corruption, but generally it’s in an indirect way.

Would you trust your government to fairly and equitably decide who gets such treatments?

The scientific, societal, and economic aspects of eugenics are inextricable.

Can you elaborate on “done correctly”?

I just had to initiate a claim because I didn’t receive a package that hadn’t arrived even though it reported that it did. Although it’s a bit hidden, there’s at least a “package arrived; missing items” option on the mobile app.

We Love Burning Town

Truly the person of all time

A strong desire to always learn and improve. I respect that there are people that know how to be and are totally content with just knowing what they know; but I personally have a hard time in intimate relationships with people that don’t take interest in learning.

There it is.

Or you can be like those people on TikTok that pull their kids out of school and let them “guide their own learning.”

I don’t remember what they called this cutting edge method.

I loved Severance too. I don’t usually go to film for my sci-fi cravings though.

For shows, I really like that just casual kinda mundane tone that sort of parodies reality. Home Movies is great, Bob’s Burgers (the earlier seasons were better for this, but I’m still watching through them). Family Guy has those moments every now and then, although I wouldn’t call it one of my top shows by any means.

My favorite show is probably Steven Universe. Everything about it was so artistically done; especially the soundtrack. Of the realm of kids/teens shows that were designed for the whole family, Steven Universe is one of the few that I personally think had a great and satisfying ending.
