Depends on where you live. Most places have laws that permit relationships between “adults” and “minors” so long as they are close in age. Usually 2–3 year gap is acceptable.

There are a lot of parts to inflation, but I’ll do my best.

Money is used as a medium of exchange. It’s convenient, easily countable, and an agreed upon unit of value. A dollar is a very, very small slice of the entire worth of the economy. As processes improve and production increases, the economy gets bigger. Because of this, we need more dollars to divide it into smaller pieces. The Federal Bank “prints” money to give us smaller pieces of the economy we can use. That’s why we have “more” money. Your wealth is the same; it’s just represented using more dollars. This is the Money Supply.

When you say inflation, and you’re referring to the pinch you feel in your wallet, generally that’s when the money supply grows faster than the economy is growing. For example, after WW1 Germany began increasing the money supply to repay loans for postwar reparations. But without the economy floundering and the money supply rapidly growing, they experienced intense inflation. The money people had was becoming a smaller slice of the same economy. It was becoming worth less.

Inflation is rather complicated. I had a whole semester about it in college, but generally, this is what it is.

I agree that the average age is higher. You’re the only other confirmed teenager that I have encountered while on Lemmy. I joined Lemmy when I was 17 during the Reddit emmigration.

How do you manage the algea and bacteria in the lakes? Like, when you see a lake that has abnormal levels of algea blooms, what do you do to remedy it?

What brand of fliptop bottles are you using? I need to get some of my own for 2nd fermentations.

I’ll try that. I’ll peel off the brown layer and give it more time.

It’s been fermenting for 1 week. My first batch developed a healthy stoby by this time and was ready to drink after 11 days. It should have plenty of sugar to eat.

I’ll give it more time and see if it improves

Do you know what a dad is?

Sweet tea and fried okra would definitely win, but personally, I’d like to see fry bread win.

I knew this was going to be Stand-up Maths before I clicked the linked.

Ah yes, I too would like to go 12,179 mph (19,601 kph).

So that’s where my foreskin went

5 is like an honorary even number.

The ribbing is too shallow to make a difference. What you really want are the icy hot condoms.

It also raises the question. If (or when) we meet aliens, which language are we going to introduce them to?

Unfortunately, if given the choice between having a Thunderhead AI or having a Skynet AI + Profits, the people in power would choose the latter.

Yes, this photo was taken at my college while I walking to class.
