  • From the day you were born until today, what was the best piece of advice you still follow?

    Jump

  • Invest in your education first because nobody can take it from you.

    Buy the crappiest reliable car you can stand to be seen in. (If you need a car at all)

    Invest in a house as soon as you can. Buy the crappiest house in a nice neighborhood.

    These have helped me treat a Depreciating asset (like a car) purely as a tool for utility and helped me recognize that a nice car is ego on display. For me it applied to computers and cameras too. I could definitely afford to drive a nicer car and I've learned to turn the pang of shame in parking my crappy old beater next to my BILs' hot cars into a trigger of self assurance: "I'm living by my internal values" ... "damn right!"

  • TIL Harvey Ball came up with the smiley face we all know, in minutes for a Life Assurance Company.

  • There's a famous meme about this in the WORCESTER MASS community... Titled basically "it wasn't a self portrait"

    He looks like every central mass townie combined into one diner-dwelling chain-smoking semi famous illustrator.

  • My wife cried as she destroyed 3 years of animal and human samples collected by her team of ~100 people in Africa through three major institutions. Each sample represented hundreds of man hours and... There was no funding. Her new job in Europe was starting (two months ago) and we had to leave - there was nobody to continue the work. She searched everywhere for ANYONE willing to analyze/finish the work and take first author. The cold reality was very very sad. There was no freezer space for work that nobody would continue.

    In the coming decades she hopes to go back to discovering the mysteries that zoonotic diseases will help humanity unlock.

  • IT'S LIKE RAAAAAAAIIIIINN on your wedding day.

    A greeeen light, when you're already late.

    Some good advice, that you just didn't take.

  • On the Internet?! C'mon get real! Next youre gonna tell me that picture of the woman touching her laptop screen and keyboard simultaneously is faked.

  • My cat brought one of these home when we lived in central America. I had no idea what it was, and I was terrified - I refused to believe the internet when they told me they were harmless and not venomous. It was a scary looking little alien.

    The one pictured is much more open and spread out. Obviously getting carried in a cat's mouth would put a tiny little creature like this in defense mode - mine was much more compact and I didn't realize it was a spider / scorpion. Edit: the body was probably 3in/7cm long, a little shorter than credit card cut into an oval.

  • That's Exactly why I ask! Lol, under that definition you just proposed (doesn't quickly make sick) rocks or slow acting poisons are edible. Derive nutrition? Won't kill you? But another train of logic might be "is able to be chewed/digested by body - in which case poisons are edible - once.

  • I appreciate that the author both adds texture/nuance AND firmly denounces him. I like the depth to that.
