Well said, thanks for that little bit of measured realistic optimism I needed it today.

I want to hear that lecture!


Can you elaborate? Fully ready to be on your side but I don’t have the time to dig in to know what you are taking about.


I like e-reader for a camping setup since it is lightweight. You can also do a little cyber deck build and load up all of wikipedia.


In a situation where you don’t have constant access to abundant electricity, you would naturally reduce your use of electronics quite a bit. An e-reader battery lasts a long time, so load it up with a bunch of good and useful books and that panel will be able to power it indefinitely. Winter is tricky, still it would probably be enough to keep it going with sparse use. Or you could rig up a bike-alternator-car battery set up. But you need to think about how much power you can reasonably generate and base your planned consumption off of that. This makes me sound like a big prepper, I’m not, but I have been thinking about this a lot lately. Wonder why…
Same, I didn’t know why but it’s actually working as a journal better than any other app I’ve tried for me. Maybe just feeling like it’s not going to try to sell me something or steal my data.

Sorry that happened that must have been a real bummer.


I love this idea


I would not be able to trust an auto translate. Look for someone out there who is adept at it and enlist their help, or a message board if you can find one. You do not want to find out your tattoo is a bad translation after the fact


I want that shirt
Don’t leave us hanging! Go into it!


I dont know if this counts but his edit of Gordon Ramsey kills me everytime


Definitely some interesting thoughts here. I do think you need to ask yourself if you aren’t romanticizing in the opposite direction.


I think there probably are some things that we could agree are universally disgusting , but it would still be a subjective opinion, just one that no one would argue. What I mean to say is that beauty and ugliness are human constructs, they don’t actually exist. It would be kind of pointless to go back and forth with someone countering examples of beauty with examples of ugliness.
Ok let’s hear the story. I had a similar teacher experience, even had the dual teacher thing, but it was not as bad. Although she ended up having a major seizure in the middle of class which was pretty upsetting for us, but obviously that had nothing to do with how she was treating me.
