Can’t see anything wrong with calling your child after your favorite character

That’s the different kind of lefties. I am talking about tankies that think that Russia and China are socialist states that fight the big imperialist

They do and I fucking cringe when they call themselves lefties.

Higher temperature -> more chaotic output

People do mention Veritasium, though he doesn’t give any significant explanation of the phenomenon.

I still wonder about 47. In Veritasium plots, all these numbers provide a peak, but not 47. I recall from my childhood that I indeed used to notice that number everywhere, but idk why.

You sound like a very responsible individual, TBH

The reward is worth the sacrifice.

It’s funny how some people treat responsibility. It’s like they are trying to convince me that brushing teeth is “worth sacrifice”. I totally agree and I’ll probably need to bring this topic to therapy.

Take having kids, for example. You have kids, but you have to earn a fortune, you have to change pampers and you have to regulate yourself emotionally not to fuck up their psyche. It’s not that I don’t want to have kids because I don’t value kids over these chores, it’s just I’m afraid if I don’t do these chores, I’ll be responsible for their shitty future.

Brushing teeth is totally worth doing, but if I one day don’t feel like it - it’s not a problem.

Donations are the most obvious and probably the most helpful in established communities

Doing charity doesn’t require increased responsibility.

In my experience, it does. I used to do some charity work for Ukrainian refugees: delivering medicine, helping with warehousing, buying suitcases for those who want to go further. That’s not an easy one, and it has hella pressure on you, basically because these people do not have a lot of people who would help them.

Sorry, not everyone speaks rich and not everyone speaks poor

When I was switching careers I looked into one of the IT schools. They looked nice and promised me a decent job with decent pay. In exchange, I’d need to pay a percentage of my future salary. I said ok, and signed the papers.

Little did I know they offered a course that was available for free and “exams” that were conducted by students that have finished one chapter more. Saw a lot of bullying and left this mess before finishing it without paying a dime.

Got a job that actually lied in between the career I pursued previously and the career that was offered by this “school”. In some sense they’ve helped me, and to this day I’m ashamed that I haven’t paid them anything.

I also took an airport taxi that costed me ten times a usual cost.
