Christians said Obama was the antichrist. I guess I should hope Catholics soon blame Obama for bringing this baby carrot plague onto the country with some 3D Satanic Chess plan because at least then they’ll finally be against captain carotene.
Thanks, Obama.
Native English speakers do something similar where they say someone can be “electric”. I’ve had my share of idioms being misunderstood as realistically accurate and I see others all the time.
If it was a joke the whole time, we missed it. It’s hard to convey a humorous tone by text.
There’s still other fabric interactions that can happen. I consistently build a charge getting out of my office chair at work. I wear shoes. I’ve become accustomed to tapping my arm the door frame on the way out. 10/10 times in the winter (dry air), I get a shock. Maybe 7/10 times in summer (more humid, but with AC). Nearly everything I wear is cotton. Sometimes nylon shirts and I assume my socks have spandex or whatever the elastic stuff is. Still, not the clothing known most for static.
Do some testing. See if any other metal things can cause a static shock. A metal home door, a car door, the fridge, toaster, whatever.
I suspect you will find some repeatable sequence. Even if a second shock is weaker, it’s still a sign you’re finding the cause. It’s not ADHD. Electrical energy is very different from the “electricity” in your nervous system and brains. Vastly different in terms of voltage because your nerves are driven by chemical reactions, not massive magneto coils.
As for the heat of the monitor, if you can trust someone, try a blind test. Make sure your eyes can’t see anything. Have them switch the monitor on and off in some way you can’t hear the switch. There is so little heat from modern monitors, blankets block so much heat, and you are likely quite far for radiation heat to be detectable. Honestly, I’d chalk this up more to the ADHD or something else psychological. It’s not that you feel the heat, its that you’re convinced you can feel it and you body is reacting in weird, repeatable ways. Like you just can’t stop thinking about and now body is reacting in a defensive way. Maybe fulk fight or flight with adrenaline, that flushes you with heat. Does your heart race?
A meme is a repeating joke or other pop culture act, including the category of text overlay templates. I don’t see any other uses of this panel, so it is not yet a meme. It is currently a comic panel.
Make a second one and we’re all set.
Phone is ewwww, thumbs go brrrrt
While I do call, it’s frustrating that the call adds a significant opportunity for order error. I don’t use DoorDash, but many places don’t have a competent online system, or one at all.
It’s huge “I can’t fix this problem myself” mentality. Dominoes isn’t sending anyone to that neighborhood. Could you imagine the furthered dystopic trend if Dominoes (and others) COULD choose which neighborhoods to not serve AT ALL? If multi-brand corporations could so directly manipulate product availability like that?
There’s enough problems in poorer areas becoming “food deserts” by lacking proper groceries and only having garbage fast food available in walking/bussing distance. Let’s not give the French fry overlords any more power to tailor the markets through delivery denial.
A key distinction between terms here is that while Catholics are probably the largest single Christian group in the US, a larger Christian percentage belongs to various Protestant groups. They already don’t care about the pope and think Catholics are wrong
A carousel of billboards
And? I talk to non-art students. If you never have to think about it, most people won’t. I promise you, there are plenty of “obvious” topics you are oblivious to and misunderstand. We all have them.
Why are you being so condescending in this thread and still missing the root of the point? The sun’s emission spectrum has more green in the visible band than the other colors. The emission spectrum you keep mentioning. By wavelength distribution, the sun would be “green”. But, because our eyes are terrible spectrometers with bad wavelength resolution but we still like to use crayon descriptions, all the red and green gets interpreted as a combined yellow. You made a snobby comment about how all your art students understand how paint (subtractive) color works, but are you aware how light (additive) color works? Like why an RGB light can make yellow with red and green? Because that’s what makes our yellow sun “green” by certain metrics.
So it stands to reason that if plants were predominantly green on Earth to reject and regulate green-wavelength energy from our sun, a red dwarf, which has more red output, could cause red plants to develop.
A red dwarf isn’t exactly red. Our sun isn’t exactly yellow. Our sun isn’t exactly green, either.
I just want a small duct to an underbody venturi nozzle that gently evacuates farts
Exchange rate doesn’t tell you how expensive things really are. Take Hawaii for example. It’s a United State and uses the USD. Yet, everything there is more expensive because of shipping
John Quincy Adams chose “The Volume of Laws” in 1825. Teddy Roosevelt had nothing right after McKinley’s assassination in 1901. The only other oddball I see is Lyndon B Johnson used the closest prayer book after JFK’s assassination
I’m looking for an #apple #iPhone that comes in #orange #project16april2026 #all #frontpage #fyp #hot #ok #sale #android
Crying enough to interrupt my breathing with the quivers and and all? When I was 13 at my grandparent’s funeral. That was the first death for me. Emotional tears? Like every other day. Happy, sad story, movie, moving article, beautiful community moment, a good song at the right time, whatever. It’s been like this for over 30 years.
You don’t have to cry. Hopefully, it’s just a sign your brain has readjusted how it ranks stressful situations and not anything more serious than that.
Rotating Savings and Credit Association (ROSCA). It goes by many other local names across the world, but that’s the English wiki page title to get you going
His conversion doesn’t mean all that much when the voter base is predominantly Protestant
Sometimes I feel similarly about Elite: Dangerous. Disclaimer: I haven’t played NMS because E:D gets all my spacetime tokens and I’m fine with that. “Community goals” (high payout limited time events) get me to play because it gives me purpose for a week. For the most part though, I like coming to it for an hour or two when I want to take a break from story-laden games. Hunt pirates for an hour, fly out of inhabited space and explore for an hour (well, an hour out, an hour there per session, an hour back next time), or just chill with music and asteroid mining.
So I do wish there was a plot at times, but I do appreciate it for mixing up the routine with simple cruising
Fuel mileage is a very tangible cost. There’s a general balance between high fuel cost/short average commute and vice versa. Filling a tank might be equal to a couple dining out. The monthly total might resemble the grocery bill. They need to be filled every 1-2 weeks typically. You sit there and watch the total continue ticking up. Driving feels free until you watch the pump, so it’s almost like a penalty in feeling, as if you’re being charged extra. It doesn’t make sense, but that’s a feeling, because your choices while driving don’t necessarily get connected to your upcoming gas bill. And I’ll say while newer cars are considerably more efficient and reduce the number of fillups, they’re more in-your-face with on board MPG displays. Mash the gas and the number dives,. But, keep it high, and you pat yourself on the back, knowing you did your best.
So, it became important because at this point, in most of the world, cars are all easily meeting acceptable safety ratings, power (acceleration), easily reach highway speed, carry 4.5 passengers, and have Bluetooth. So what’s left? Superiority through mileage.
There’s some irony in that the most efficient versions tend to be more expensive. The jump from regular hybrid to plug in hybrid often takes a decade to recoup in gas costs, at least with new cars.
The there’s the irony that it’s not a big deal. I chose the smallest engine of a used ~2010 vehicle. That saved me maybe $2k USD on its own. I get 25mpg. The other engine would get 18, maybe. I’ve spent under $1000 in fuel over the last year of ownership across 7500 miles. A 28% drop in mileage, a 28% increase in consumption, would cost me an extra $350/year. $30/month.
I swear, it’s all a farce, likely pushed by some lobby groups to make citizens feel responsible for the climate and for being poor. Just like how we feel guilty not recycling bottles as exxon burns gas for fun and dumps it in the ocean.
