Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
A nurse once told me to “mind my own fucking business” when I said “are you fucking kidding me?” to seeing her pull off her mask to cough into her hand and go back to the shit she was working on during covid lock downs. In the ER nurses station, surrounded by nurses with asks completely down or with noses poking out.

Yeah, but so are 40%, by their own admission.
That’s actually a common misconception.
It’s not because Japanese ninjas are bad at being ninjas, it’s just that other countries ninjas are completely invisible to the naked eye.
Obviously we all know we can see our own country’s ninjas, but other countries are invisible.
Thanks to years of cultural import/export, most humans can naturally see Japanese ninjas.
So congrats, if you can see a Japanese ninja, you’re actually just close to being a weeb.
The majority of people I’ve brought this up with believe MKULTRA is just a Conspiracy theory and never happened, or have never even heard of it.
Like… This is stuff they are ADMITTING TO.
Moth needs to stop runningaway when I try to let it outside, I just want to help but I can’t help if I can’t catch it.
From my understanding, he has solar/wind powered well pumps, and a septic system he can “shovel out” himself. He had a covered box for deliveries next to his mailbox, and anything that needs to be dropped close to the house can drive straight in, I assume he plans those out ahead of time.
I just checked street view maps and since the last time I was over there he actually has a driveway now! With a gate across it.
Last time I spoke to him regularly enough that house questions wouldnt be weird, he was already working on solar power and already had a “battery wall” from 18650 cells cobbled together from surplus and garage sale battery packs. Had a whole table set up with testing and monitoring stuff for it. Apparently when the power went out, he could keep his fridge and freezer going for “almost a week”
I’m sure by now he’s gotten some of the trees cleared so he can have a garden, as that was also on the list of things he wanted to do to the place.
So he’s probably living as off grid as possible by now, while still using satellite or cellular internet.
It would be weird for me to just out of the blue start talking to him to ask more about it, we were never really “friends” friends, more “he’s friends with my friend so by extension we hang out” which makes it weirder. Not sure why, we just didn’t seem to interact outside of hangouts and group chats. Although if I’m being honest it’s probably because his family is rich so any time he went on about the stuff he’s “built” and “earned” it just rubbed me the wrong way.
But It’s a nice setup for sure.
I don’t understand this mentality from people who already have their name out there. You’re supposedly famous and you’re getting mad about being even more famous and recognizable.
A doll house where there’s an even smaller doll house inside, where the tiny TV in the living room plays episodes of the show Dollhouse.
I know someone who did something like this.
They bought a huge garage/warehouse on an empty plot of land, and built essentially two floors of a house right next to each other inside it. Didn’t make it look fancy though, just enough to keep the insulation in and hold everything solidly together.
His reasoning? “it’s got to be cheaper to heat and easier to maintain if it’s inside a cheaper building”
He’s lived there for over a decade and has since gotten married and had a kid, so it’s still working for him.
And I’m not trying to imply that there is no reason to need a truck or no reason to need an SUV.
I didn’t mean to imply that’s what you were saying.
There are exceptions, but yeah 99% of trucks and SUVs on the road simply don’t need to be there.
I’d love electric van, honestly. Most of the stuff I use my truck for doesn’t need the open space up top or the ability to drop a load from above/the side, and the few times I have needed that I could have spent an hour hand loading things. Plus I’d prefer the extra security of having an enclosed cargo space. Vans are better than trucks in all but a small set of circumstances
Most days I don’t need a truck. Most days I don’t want a truck.
But that’s what I’ve got and I can’t exactly just buy a new vehicle, or simply change jobs to one I can cycle to.
I’m a minority though, for most people it’s compensation for insecurity or attempted status symbol. Around here we call them “pavement princesses” because they never touch dirt and likely couldn’t navigate a back yard with its current driver.
My in-laws have a van that can out-pull my pickup. Partly due to my trucks age and how heavily it has been used over the years, but their van isn’t exactly a pushover.
And they have their own pickup that is only a few years old and it can’t tow their camper very well. They use their van whenever they can.
I mean, that thing is working so hard it turned the entire surrounding countryside into desert!
To many people nowadays, the actual job itself doesn’t matter, it’s the fact that it’s a job and it pays.
Turns out, productivity soars when you have a well rested, well compensated, well treated, healthy, and housed people who don’t have constant stessors of literally every aspect of their lives nearly crumbling beneath them…
Let’s say left door lies and right door tells the truth. Right door leads out.
Left door would lie and say “right door would tell you I am the door that leads out”
Right door would tell the truth, and say “left door would say LEFT door leads to freedom”. Since left door does not lead to freedom, left door would lie and say that left door is the correct one.
No matter which door you ask, they will have the same answer.
So you would choose the opposite door of whichever one they say.
Everyone makes fun of Tim, but BUT WAS RIGHT!
LOOK AT THE BONES!!!
You’re right, you clearly don’t have anything of substance to say.
“stealing art for my/my favorite techbro’s computer project should be legal and since it’s not yet, I’ll go around completely misrepresenting arguments in order to make them seem like they are the ones who are out-of-touch”
Hands down, no question. It was still the early days, april 2020, so I am a bit less forgiving than later in 2020. Nurses already got the short end of the medical stick even before covid
this instance was just particularly memorable.
