Uni jetstream edge .28 mm. Uses an oil-based ink that doesn’t smear if it gets wet. Feels good in the hand too.

Also, the rOtring ballpoint pens.

The second one, plus the prolactin helps me fall asleep.

Man, it’s pretty sad my first thought was “did I miss an article about this?”

“Costumers” make the costumes. Clearly Mr Mathers was providing craft services for a movie being shot in Detroit.

I can’t remember who said it, but the quote “it is no sign of mental health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick world” was being thrown around when I was a kid in the nineties, and it’s not like things have improved much since then.

I was wondering about that, I saw a botanist’s video about a carnivorous plant nursery and he mentioned plants like VFTs and pitcher plants evolved in high-precipitation areas where the soil has been leached of nutrients.

So monkeys are rectangles and chimps/apes are squares.

Sure. It’s also worthwhile to recognize trolls and not reward their bad-faith posting by interacting with them.

The workers in Mondragon corporations would like to have a word.

You expect serious analysis from someone posting that comment in a communism community?

It’s more insidious than teaching us to “hate” Marxism. They teach us “oh, it’s lovely in theory but because of that darn human nature that makes all of us so greedy it can never work in practice.”

Is there a non-infowalled version? WaPo asks for email even on a gifted article.

Dave Chapelle had a whole bit about this before he decided to double (and triple, and quadruple) down on transphobia. He makes the very salient point that these things are delicious.

Melon with something savory is a widely popular choice. See: honeydew with prosciutto/parma ham and cantaloupe/honeydew with tajin (Mexican mix of savory spices.)

The “THIS IS A DEEPFAKE VOICE” label really helps human brains tell that it’s a deepfake voice.

Yeah, that’s the wrong word. “Extracted” or “looted” or “stole” are all more appropriate.

Skip the psych exam. Restore the “public servant” aspect.

1. All assets are sold and the cash is placed in a trust that earns 1% interest. When you leave office you get your money back.

2. 24/7 audio and video coverage of your life as long as you are in office. The toilet is not filmed unless someone goes in with you. Other than that, your life is an open book.

3. After you leave office, you can teach classes as long as your compensation is no more than the lowest-paid professor at the school that employs you. You can write books. Or you can enjoy your pension. No corporate jobs or partner positions at fancy law firms.

None, because seeing a four minute unskippable ad halfway through a two minute video would make me go apoplectic.

Depends on a number of factors. A ton of companies have moved to web based tools for a big chunk of their workforce. If those web apps are more or less standards-compliant you could pull it off with minimal retraining.
