I’ve been trying this new pokemon tcg pocket. Going second is actually a huge advantage.

You forgot the panel where they get people to blame it on raising minimum wage, through confirmation bias.

I agree. Slotted screws are the worst.

Nothing has replaced what Reddit was. I use Lemmy for the nostalgic feeling but it does not compare.

I followed news, politics and science, mostly. The community on Reddit used every tool available to create credibility. Then profiteering tore it asunder.

The only other social media app I ever use is Facebook. But it’s purely for connections to friends, family and local hobby groups.

That’s the kind of scientist I want to be. I wish it paid.

I can’t handle stupid right now.

I find vegan intellect fascinating. I love hearing their responses to my epistomology. They all make it up as they go along. It’s very similar to religious beliefs in the way it is personal. Each has their own set beliefs on where to draw the line of what is vegan and what is not.

My personal understanding of the world is that plants aren’t so different from animals that they can be classified separately from other food sources. For example, how much different is r-selected reproduction from a fruiting plant. Plants react differently to different colors of light and so do we.

It helps to understand the goal of a vegan. The extent to which we are tied to every living thing on Earth means that many vegans have set impossible goals.

Just fascinating.
