If only it was toxic if prepared incorrectly and tasted of rubber sock, humans would also adopt it as a delicacy.

"Can help relieve" is a weak claim.

Squeeze weak and poor people more is the goal. I don't believe they deserve we pass along this positive narrative of "well meaning".

Does your diploma come with gold embossed lettering and a red stamp? If so I'm in.

Try to have a conversation around what this diploma "unlocks" in her life that she wants. If all she needs are a diploma to flash while witching, there are cheaper diploma mills that take less time.

Edit: Reading back it sounds like I'm being light-hearted about this. I'm not really. At some point children are adults that make bad choices that are out of your control, and the best you can do as a parent is to not alienate them by trying to prevent it but help them think things through.

That's not the same as encouraging bad decisions, but accepting them. In a year or two that thinking may be what they need to make better choices, and they will still trust you to talk things through.

Other tips you can get by following this person:

  • Setting fire to your curtains does not clean them. It actually destroys the curtains, damages the walls and create rancid smoke.
  • Eating crayons and paper will not make you shit art. Turns out it gives you indigestion and diarrhea at the same time.

You live and learn!

Hey hey hey hey don't look at what it actually does.

Look at what it feels like it almost can do and pretend it soon will!

Usually, it is not the case that all the other cars on the highway are not going the wrong way.

I'm on the toilet right now, focusing on burning issues. Let's circle back to this later and touch base to lock down an updated roadmap.

Here's my problem with anime: I keep getting burnt on recommendations.

Anime fans do not share my distaste for sexualized child-coded characters. Which would be tolerable if they would even acknowledge the CONCEPT.

It's a dice toss whether the anime is a Cowboy Bebop or something with loli side characters halfway through season 2, and I'm just rarely up for spending the time to do that research for a recommendation.

And "Achshually, these are just drawings not real people", "umm, she's really a 1000 year old dragon who just chooses/got stuck with a small human body" fuckery just tires me.

I went to check. Turns out no, sorry.

 

Current LLM-in-coding trends keep bringing this post up in my head.

I see a lot of the mentioned "King David fetish" in companies trying to cut salary costs by using more AI tools.

Like, the idea that you can make something worthwhile without strong skill, by just adding enough mediocrity to make up for it.
