Isn't molasses thicker than syrup though?

Because a con man wormed his way into the seat of the president twice. Politics in my lifetime have only managed to get consistently worse since Obama.

Oh heck that's super cool!

The OP seems to very specifically be talking about government spending on debt.

This has to be the epitome of callousness and waste. To throw all the money and materials to build a rocket only for it to just explode like that. To keep doing that 37 times!

I genuinely don't know how you can have so many of your rockets explode and not fundamentally change what you're doing in the design process. NASA has had something like 3 catastrophic events like this? Forgive me if that's not entirely accurate.

One of the biggest issues with significant internet usage (and social media in particular) is that it winds up constraining your thoughts and views because that's what the algorithms are designed to do. You can easily forget how big the world is.

This feels like the kind of study where the outcome is obvious. Not using your brain means you wind up not using your brain? Shock. Not discrediting the value of it, obviously, because validation like that is important.

The federal government is actively trying to drive trans people to suicide. They are telling us to kill ourselves, then removing all options to seek other forms of help. Please donate if you can, I’m sick of being hunted for sport by our legislators: give.thetrevorproject.org/campaign/606...

The cycle continues. Mild game opinion I try to be as thorough about as I can in a single post? Blocked. God forbid anyone try to have a civil discussion with someone of differing opinion instead of plugging their ears.

I think Snoot Game is okay and does not carry an anti-trans message regardless of the views of the devs behind it. I think the common interpretations of it being anti-trans are short-sighted and potentially even ignore basic elements of being transgender.

I'm not saying 'and so don't ever do anything political'. I'm saying that it is exhausting to have to deal with people so thoroughly entrenched in political views and tribal dogma that people you agree with brand you a fascist for minor differences in opinion.

Despite my being left-leaning and having voted Democrat as long as I've been able to vote there's people that have branded me a MAGA bigot over video game opinions. That's the kind of hate and volatility I'm talking about. The kind beyond reason.
