They worked with a team of engineers and an insurance claim lawyer to design the most efficient tripping hazard known to humankind.

Joke aside it’s very cute and I believe it is on stairs not intended to be walked on:

It says not for OLED 😭 Thank you for the links though this’ll give me enough to start properly searching :3

What!? Where does one find cool cases like this?

Well that’s unfortunate. Also it’s a bit dumb having to buy more stuff to keep track of in response to cars dick waving over how quickly their low beams can kill a vampire

I’m US citizen currently living in Sweden. I had to visit the emergency room the other month and I was worried about costs, the Swedes were confused. Middle of the night ER visit on the weekend cost me about $50usd

imo it’s more accurate to call it polarizing and get you blacklisted by the types of people you maybe don’t want using your code anyways. Personally anyone doing this I’m going to be more likely to use their code

Not particularly dramatic and I don’t know if I’ve ever actually saved a life but living in Seattle I’d make care packs for homeless people. They’d have high density snacks but also things like emergency blankets, wool socks, a variety of things. Between that and buying meals for people who looked like they had two feet in the grave maybe I’ve saved somebody, I’ll never know. I’ve called the ambulance for people a couple times but similarly it’s hard to tell if they were saved once taken away

The Foundation books have something similar where ships can’t make jumps too close to planets. Characters sometimes complain about crossing the entire galaxy in nearly an instant then spending days slowly using impulse to get near the planet

More people dumping usd means lower demand for it, potentially lowers it’s value. I know it’s more complicated than that and my contribution is basically pennies but I’m hoping it helps a bit

I’m leaving the US and one of the first things I did was convert all my USD to local currency. I’m doing my best to actively extract from the US and bring it elsewhere, to hell with my home country

They go through all that and don’t even make Alaska to scale

I’m in my 30s and going back to college. I bring cookies in for people sometimes. They’re starting to call me the class mom, I kinda love it lol

I’m studying right now and I’m the lead for a group project. I’ve been having a hard time getting the team to actually talk with each other and come up with ideas. Someone told me the other week “pitch bad ideas badly”. So I tried that with the title of our project I put down a shit awful name, told everyone about it, and within 5 minutes the team came back to me with an actual title

Having a 0’o’clock is something that delights me to no end. I’m from the US but moved a bit ago and I get unreasonably excited to see my clocks showing all 0s

Iron man, maybe

Wonder if the Xanth series is going to get caught up in this. Fun, punny adventures in a fairly unique fantasy land, lots of coming of age stories. But also varying degrees of pedo shit, never ending mysogyny, and of course the questionable bestiality (the animals are sentient so they can give consent but uh, yeah, it’s questionable). My school had tons of them lol

Hey that’s me! Well I’ve left at least, need to get citizenship elsewhere before I renounce, but that’s the path I’m on. Idgaf about dual citizenship or having a US passport in the future fuck all that I never want anything to do with the US again

Not just some of the largest, the largest. No Kings makes up the top three

I think a lot of people don’t realize just how gigantic the US is and how much of a logistical nightmare it is to organize nation wide things, and how relatively little small groups of people can do to the federal government

The criticism of not starting soon enough is valid; this kind of mass action should have happened earlier. But it is happening now and people like the mentioned keyboard warrior dismissing that are hindering not helping
