  • I mean, that word is eight letters, and you only have seven tiles in your hand.

    We don't have the entire context. The game could have been ridiculous. Like, the lady could have started with "A", then the guy made it "AN", and then the third guy made the eight letter word. But I think the author intended to imply that he went first and plonked down that entire word.

  • Me too old AF and don't miss walkman or discman or digital cameras or iPod or VHS or any of that old technology.

    I understand more as you move away from technology. Like I can get why others feel an attachment to vinyl record players or film photography. Anybody can understand that stuff, while a smart phone seems more like magic.

  • I think you can also have a bottomless pit by simply having a large hole that goes all the way through a planet, directly through its center. But then you'd just go back and forth until wind resistance stops you.

  • The Psychopath Test

    Jump

  • I think the question is not 100% accurate. It's just about as accurate as the previous list of questions was.

    And IIRC, the explanation was that a narcissist would sort of be proud of their narcissism.

    It was quite interesting (TM) because she asked them the question before giving the explanation, and the ones who answered said, "Yes." And then they tried to explain how most comedians had narcissistic motivations to get in front of a crowd of people, etc.

    It almost seemed like a demonstration of the point Sandi was about to make.

  • You would end up coming to a stop and falling in the other direction.

  • The Psychopath Test

    Jump

  • I just recently watched a QI clip where they said they used to have a long list of questions to determine if someone was a narcissist, but they realized that they got the same accuracy from a single question, "Are you a narcissist?"

  • What are my options for my trans kid in the USA ?

    Jump

  • Ahh. I was going to say that sometimes, urban areas can be safer than rural areas. And then I realized that you probably have a typo. You said "so you would rather live" but I think you meant "so if you would rather live".

  • The Missing Boy

    Jump

  • You mean the time one of his victims escaped and the cops returned the victim to Dahmer, who later murdered him?

  • And I'm free...I'm free fallin'

    Jump

  • I think it's literally not possible to fall that long in one direction in an atmosphere. You could do it in space, though.

  • The forbidden fruit

  • You can get a bad version of almost any food. It doesn't mean anything. It's really common to get a tasteless orange, but that doesn't stop me from buying or liking oranges.

  • fancy cabinet

    Maybe this is the old man in me talking, but every time I've had any sort of lighting in my PC or RGB in my mouse, for example, it's just been distracting. Nobody but me ever even looks at my PC, and now, every time I see a fancy cabinet, it just looks like an eyesore to me.

  • AOC leads JD Vance for first time in 2028 election matchup: poll

    Jump

  • No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

    The 14th Amendment doesn't say that he can't run. It says that he can't hold any office. Trump has a "disability" from when he engaged in insurrection by intentionally inciting it, and that disability has not been removed by Congress.

    This disability does not require he be convicted of any crime. Instead, the 14th Amendment simply requires that Congress enforce the Amendment:

    The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

    Donald Trump cannot legally hold any office under the United States. He cannot legally be president. The only reason he's able to act like the president now is that Congress is not enforcing the Constitution.

    I wouldn't be surprised if, at some point in the future, perhaps even after Trump passes away, Congress finally grows some backbone and enforces the amendment, just to try to make up for the embarrassment that Trump causes us, similar to how the Germans would rather not remember that Hitler had been the Chancellor of Germany. Trump might be retroactively declared to have never been the president after January 6, 2021, and I think that would be in line with what is written in the Constitution.

  • I don't even think Trump can legally be president today.

    And on top of what you said, there's also the possibility that Trump will be alive but too senile to run.

  • What personal actions you take to stay optimistic?

    Jump

  • I have been reading a lot of fiction lately.

    Listen, the important thing isn't to court optimism. It's to avoid pessimism. Pessimistic thoughts tend to be sticky and refuse to go away. Mindfulness meditation can help you give those thoughts the boot.

    But it also helps to stay busy. Like my hobby of reading fiction.

    Exercise can also help.

    Staying optimistic can backfire if you're over optimistic at all.
