I use it a lot.

The Batman incorporates a lot of working class struggles into the narrative. Batman is constantly called out for not knowing things that are obvious to working people, but not to upper class people like himself.

Bluesky is new Twitter today.

There is nothing in its design to prevent it from becoming the X of tomorrow.

When doing snot techniques, 2 studs = 5 plates.

Yeah.

There is always that cycle that includes “Democrats didn’t do everything they promised so they deserve to suffer”, which brings in Republicans that cause far more damage.

And given the number of election cycles, you would think there would be some organization by now for overall leftist causes, but there isn’t. There is no party or organization out there that can pose an electoral threat. The right produced the TEA party, which morphed to MAGA. Leftists have nothing.

A combination of Lemmy and The Economist.

The Economist is very anti-Russian, but I find they don’t pull punches regarding how economic policy will fuck with the working class in Western countries.

I don’t know, but if there is one, I’d expect one to be in New Jersey.

Online is only really better for lower levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy. As you work your way up from default memorization, in person learning starts to shine.

Also, a bachelor’s degree isn’t supposed to just teach you hard skills, but also soft skills to make you a leader. It is a lot harder to teach leadership when students don’t have to deal with people.

Those are the most popular posts. I recommend trying to find communities that you like and subscribing to them, then read the subscribed feed.

Welding would not be an effective way to close your asshole.

Welding involves turning the existing materials to be affixed into a liquid by melting it, then resolidifying it such that both materials are bonded.

If you would try to weld your asshole, you are going to end up burning it instead. Should charred bits of your asshole become molten and bond, it is likely that those charred bits won’t have a healthy bond to your unburnt skin, so the weld will fail quickly.

Grass lawns as a concept came from Europe as a symbol of wealth. If you could afford a large green lawn, you were likely rich.

Victoria to Queensland.

I have flown from the Garden State to the Sunshine State in two different countries.

At least Clone High got an entire season.

It has two.

I watched every minute of Francis Ford Coppola’s “Megalopolis” in a movie theater.

If you’re in the USA, I wouldn’t do law. The field is saturated with lawyers and a reason for AI development is to replace lawyers.

Here’s a half hour video on how industrial work differed from agricultural work

There are some cases where stresses back then were worse than today, but there are a lot of cases where today is worse from the point of view of certain stresses.

You also have differences in expectations. For instance, it was common for children to die due to different reasons. That vastly changes the parent-child dynamic.

As far as I remember in Portal, the portals could move if the plates moved.

Shoot the portal on two moveable plates. Move the plates as needed to ship goods. For instance, I imagine making a lot of money shoving sea ice into a portal exiting Lake Powell.

The term Yankee includes more than New England. That’s why I didn’t use the term New England while you did.
