  • You can write, but can you read? "The nonprofit was halfway through an NEH grant of $345,000 when its funding was abruptly cut." If you want the government to document everything they can start with answering the questions from judges. Fuck out of here you goon.

  • Where have you been able to accomplish this? Any groups we can hook up with that are getting the job done? Or places online or in-person that interested and worried Americans can join the cause? Because I'm seeing a lot of theorieticals from you but nothing more. It feels more like you're telling everyone else to do it. Maybe you're not in the US, which would be confusing because you keep saying "we."

  • What tips, in your experience, can you give everyone in achieving those relentless weekday protests you've been doing? Any mutual aid orgs you can point people to in order to pay bills and take care of children and not lose their job and health insurance? Or for the seniors that need safe transportation? We're all ears. Seems like mass weekend protests should be pretty doable for most folks unless you've got some other trick we can all use.

  • I used to run a popular mod that made an indie beta game even more popular. Guess who almost all of the final testers were before release? My whole team. We were clearly the most devoted people to the game and knew best how to break it. It was nice to get a head-start on our new mod (which we pivoted to be the equivalent of Steam Workshop or an app store before those existed). Of course, the creator became a dickwad years later and we all ended the mod and the game is dead.

  • I saw IDE cables referred to as PATA cables in a YouTube video earlier today. "Huh, I don't remember calling them that." Luckily right after that they clarified that's a more recent name for them. Still felt old.

  • Temporary monopolies are the governments reward to encourage new works of art and inventions. The trade off is that it's temporary. By extending copyrights indefinitely it actually discourages new works to be created because they're competing with more creations than ever, and nothing can be built as a derivative work. Trademarks, which Disney still owns, are protected basically indefinitely.

  • I (male) had a pair of dress shoes that sounded a bit like high heels. You notice a lot of dudes turn their heads (or try to be more sneaky about looking) when your shoes make that noise. They were not stoked to see me instead.

  • Use food knives for cutting food? If you find a situation where you are caught unexpectedly without another knife for apples and cheese... Break the apple and/or cheese in half (easy) and use your mouth. Nobody will be impressed if you bust out a PK for the charcuterie board. Especially when they see guys like my old roommate use it to pick their toe-jam moments before using it for food. Or carry a separate knife for food in your bag. I find it unlikely that you had an apple or hunk of cheese in your pocket instead of your bag.

  • Way too much shit in that wallet. Cut it down to bare essentials, put everything else in a 2nd wallet in the bag (and scan in reward card barcodes to an OS wallet or 3rd party app on your phone). Get rid of the keys that you don't use daily and put them in the bag.
