That is absolutely not true and clothes are doe ore then termal protection. Clothes are highly important for reduction in exposure to bugs, they also help limit direct exposure to sum UV. Sure there are places where you can go without clothing and be relatively okay, but to be totally honest you used one example for very specific locales. Just because it “isn’t necessary” in one specific locale doesn’t mean they are a necessary part of the human experience.
Rather than focusing on cellphone utilization in schools which is mostly just for politicians to feign that they care about education, how about we, I don’t know fund schools better, reduce class sizes, and just in general made it less an environment that children want to escape using phones and more of a dialogue of learning and self discovery for kids. The classes that did the best for me were small with an engaging teacher who made you feel like you were part of the dialogue and not just a data point for standardized tests.
I did, and while you give a meek might be used to teach history using a physical example at an arbitrary time in the future, you seem to miss my rebuttal that those are few and far between and it is just as easy for its use to swing the other way in the future. Stop trying to get people to care about a plantation burning down. Even with your more “altruistic” take it comes off very distastful. I’ll leave with a quote from an article about it
“I wouldn’t necessarily say that the history is lost. This artifact is lost, but the history is still there,” Duggan said.
“If you’re mourning the loss of Nottoway, I would encourage you to learn more about it. Learn more about other plantation houses. You can still learn from that history.”
Before you go defending places as lost chances at teaching history, maybe you should check into the place and see what kind of things it was used for. The website doesn’t seem to suggest it was used to teach history, just a glorified white people wedding venue.
While your sentiment is a good one, from experience of living around such historical sites, most I have seen are operated by people like United Daughters of the Confederacy. The street really goes both ways with historical sites and while they can be used as grand gestures to show a horrible past in physical form to some who may see it, it can also be used as a propaganda tool of “lost glory” as the dsughters put it.
There is a town not too far from where I live that has a long history that has tons of white washed messages by the Daughters. Its frankly gross, but many people in that town don’t bat an eye because those same historical buildings are used to re-enforce their view of the world not change their perspective.
The oxymoron that the army must “remain above all political disputes” gave me quite a chuckle.
This post literally reminded me I had my WiFi turned off and that I needed to turn it back on, thank you stranger.
Words like ‘for’ make no difference in Google searches, it has to do with how the search index weights words.
Hey Google ‘Creampie recipe’ safe search on
You fail to mention that studies of the antiviral properties of Ivermectin showed that the dosage requirements were proported to be higher dosage than what was considered safe and was likely to be toxic. Sure, maybe it can act as an antiviral medicine, but the other thing a medicine must do is, you know, not kill the person using it.
As an edit upon further reading, not only were some of the early studies suggesting dangerous dosage being required to see the affects, laterore rigorous studies showed little evidence it made a difference at all.
The worse part, that only too 2 minutes to google to see dones of papers on the subject, so maybe look into things before you parrot randos on the internet
A community is not something you can “migrate”. You are not migrating a community, you are migrating a community space and in doing so, you are alienating said community. If you are unwilling to provide a safe space for said community, the community will either find new space or take their space back.

The mod SkyUI has sorting and more info in the list of items itself so you don’t have to scroll to an item to compare stats. Those two features alone, make it infinitely better. It’s not just “smaller text”.
I’m glad you are so morally just and a paragon of justice that you get to be judge of who is worthy of help. We definitely need more judgmental people in this world.
Have a awful rest of your life :)
Honestly I disagree, it absolutely is not. If you don’t want to part with your money, don’t give it, but you are not paying for a service. You are are not entitled to what another person does with the money you give them. Do you want the company you work for to start telling you want yiu can do with the money they pay you? Or is it your money to do with what you want once it is given to you?
What is your justification for why they owe you an explanation?
I’m not upset at your story, I’m upset at you being judgemental toward unhoused persons. There are a lot of people out there when an unhoused person asks for money just refuse to give it because they think they are going by drugs with it (which, yeah, they might), so many unhoused persons have to resort to giving an excuse they think you might be responsive to. You have no idea what they need the money for. Maybe its to get a cheap phone so they have a way to contact someone if thry need help. Maybe they need a hair cut for a job interview. Maybe its for drugs. The thing is, you should give a person the help they ask for and not what you think they need, in my opinion. You are not their parent and what they do with what they ask for is not your business.
RIP Antonio, you were a real one
Lol, I would actually love an example of the “inevitable” outcome everyone always touts. Everyone says it, but I don’t ever see anyone actually stopping talking about these people or making anyone apologize. You are right, he died hundreds of years ago. We don’t need to punish or blame anyone. We also don’t need to stop teaching physics just because it was forged by pieces of shit. If we are going to talk about the people who discovered this stuff at all (which we don’t have to to talk about physics) there is no need to white wash the history. We can be adults and recognize that just because someone did something important doesn’t mean they were perfect or even a good person at all. We don’t chose who makes great changes to our world, but it doesn’t me we have to hide who they or or what they did.
I really needed to see this this friday! Thanks for posting as always
