Yeahhhh. It’s frustrating that it exists. Obvious bias to a comical extreme. Some fun (frustrating?) articles are about evolution, Barracks Houssein Obama (yes they have the middle name emphasized), and atheism

That’s probably something Conservapodia would publish not ironically

Dvorak exclusively. This thread is the most I’ve heard of other people using it. To date, I’ve met 2 people who have HEARD of it, but no one else who uses it

Mmm. Lost a planet, Master Stamets has. How embarrassing. How embarrassing. Find it, we will try

But think of the poor Shareholders (/s)

I’m a huge fan of Rimworld! Very excited to hear you’re giving it a try. It really can become whatever you want. There is an abundance of Quality of Life mods too. I definitely have recommendations if you’d like.

Oh I’m sure it’d be quite hard. But that’s a future engineer’s problem lol

This is the first step to having magnetic wheels become a thing. We know canonically Jim Kirk’s motorcycle uses these, so it’s definitely mainstream by ~2250.

Honorable mention: the Bell Riots happen September this year, and it seems we’re on track for those too

To merge with another fandom, there is no Megamind sequel in Ba Sing Se 💡

I post a reminder in a group chat with my friends every year. Someone today asked how the hell I remember it and I told them it’s in my calendar

Do you know why we can’t see any elephants hiding in trees?

Because they’re really good at it

… I’ll see myself out

The outward facing part from how it grows, not where the stem is. Used to think that was the bottom, but it’s the top. Just pinch it and it opens easier every time.

This idea is called a “Third Place”. Your first place is home, the second place is work, and the third place is another place that isn’t the first 2. There used to be more of these like malls, plazas, parks, and others. In the last few decades, these places have gone away, had funding cut, or otherwise died. And like OP is saying, there are places that have been created to fill this gap, but they have been monetized :(

I realized that I treated Reddit as a third place. It was somewhere I felt like a community existed that I could talk to people and just hang out. It wouldn’t surprise me if people felt the same about Tik Tok or Facebook. So when one of those places is threatening to leave, it makes sense they feel there will be a void created.

Not sure what a good solution would be as this is a complicated issue.

3D TV. It was so cool. Games actually had heads up displays. Movies were especially immersive. So much potential for development. But people didn’t like wearing glasses to use it :(

You know when you’re at a park, see a dog, feel something squish under your foot, and then pick up your fooh to look at it? Yeah, exactly like that but in human form
