I don’t disagree, but there has been some decent stuff. In particular, I just started Doom Patrol for the first time and I’m really enjoying it

Couple a YeeHawdists up in here
PERC
Perchloroethylene (aka tetrachloroethene) is a completely non-polar compound, so, yes, it is a dry liquid.
I would tend to disagree with the Cambridge example, because liquids can be dry. “Dry” liquids are anhydrous, meaning they’ve been treated to remove any water.

especially when they turn on in the middle of the night.
That’s a rookie move. Leave the fan on at full blast all night, and then you won’t hear the difference when the AC kicks in, plus it’s a free white-noise machine
Certainly possible, but I’m sort of a textbook mild case of ADHD, just with the side case of insomnia from being fairly prominent (which was true even before medication). Everybody reacts to medication in different ways, so I’ve just found I have to rely on coping strategies more than medication for my case. It’s not a big deal and I’m at a point in my life where I can manage my ADHD symptoms in a way that doesn’t affect my life too much. So for me, the side effects of the medication exacerbate my preexisting insomnia to the point that the drawbacks of adderall outweigh the benefits for my particular brand of ADHD.
No it’s IR, but taken 20 mg in the morning and then 10 mg in the early afternoon. It just always wound up with the physical effects lingering much longer than the mental effects, so if I tried skipping the afternoon dose, then I’d wind up totally scattered and useless from about 3PM on.
The XR once in the morning worked a little better, but for whatever reason didn’t really help the same way and I still had the insomnia from it.
There are no winners here.
Source: Tried for years to overpower the insomnia from my ADHD meds with melatonin, weed, CBD:THC edibles, booze, kava, diphenhydramine, etc. before finally going cold turkey on my adderall. With enough stimulants, it doesn’t matter how much melatonin you take; you’re not gonna have a good night’s sleep edit: but you’ll also be too tired to be productive or to do anything fun
Yeah, I tend to agree, although I recently went back and listened to Incubus recently, and it’s mostly pretty good (although still dated)
The Mars Volta and White Stripes are still solid, too. Oasis still sounds ok, and Radiohead is obviously phenomenal, but they are far and away the exceptions. There was some good stuff that made it to alt rock radio stations, but the “dominating the world” bands are pretty bad now. Papa Roach, Nickelback, 3 Doors Down, etc. should be relegated to the dustbin of history
Time to strap in
Time to stock up on 1:1 CBD:THC edibles and renew the xanax prescription. Otherwise, my liver will never survive the next 4-5 months…
Got a literal lol from me at breakfast.
And hey, you’re one of a pretty small number of people in the world that can use “gas chromatographic” properly, so you got that going for you, which is nice.
looks like an autocorrect error to me; based on context, I bet they meant “reported.”
Good clarification either way, though, especially since it dramatically changes the meaning of the sentence
This seems sounds this is a good metric on the surface, but let’s try it out.
Corned beef on pizza? Sounds great. Sauerkraut? Uhh, ok, maybe. Mayonnaise? What the actual fuck…
You’re definitely right; maybe someone like Dolly Parton would have been a better comparison, but even Dolly doesn’t really capture his big Swift is.
Really, my first instinct was to go with Neil Young because he’s one of my favorite artists of all time, and I do think that a lot of his biggest hits weren’t really overly political, probably split about 50:50 even if we remember the more political stuff now. For every “Ohio” and “For What It’s Worth,” there’s a “Heart of Gold” and “Helpless.”
But really I’m splitting hairs because I like talking about music and playing the devil’s advocate. Your initial point that Swift isn’t known for writing protest music is absolutely correct.
Taylor Swift definitely has some political songs like “The Man,” which is focused on the double standard faced by female celebrities, or “You Need to Calm Down,” which is explicitly pro-LGBTQ+, etc.
I’m just pining for a better yesteryear that may have never actually existed.
I mean, Neil Young and Joan Baez were encouraging people to vote back in the 60’s, so it’s been at least 60 years that popular music has been closely involved in youth culture’s voting habits
It’s not 40K, but I thoroughly enjoyed Mordheim: City of the Damned, despite some bugs and rough AI in places.
In all honesty, I think it’s likely a simple mistake.
The object that artists use to hold their paints is actually a third homophone, spelled palette.
It could be that the word choice was intentional and is referencing the character’s bed, but I find it more likely that it was simply lost in translation from the original Japanese
Ah, got it. I never even saw most of the DC movies or shows post Nolan-era Batman, so I was unaware of the distinction.
