For escaping the world: car. Solitude and a background task while my mind ticks away.

Should see some serious progress on some mental and physical fitness goals. Really excited about that!

For sure! I only heard about it recently but it’s so exciting and they’ve already made so much progress. I’ll definitely be switching once it’s deemed to be in a releasable state.

But it is stranger

I believe that whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you… stranger…

Short crematorium stocks, do it now!!!

I believe the Romans had a non temporal solution for this.

Mining on a planet/moon in Star Citizen. Very chill, you get some beautiful views and monkey brain can see balance go up.

The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and chatter in the place of exercise.

I’d recommend reading Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do by Michael Sandell.

Also I haven’t read it myself yet but it sounds like The Moral Landscape by Sam Harris would probably be of interest to you as well.

Great recommendation. We Lost the Sea - Departure Songs is one of my all time favourite post rock albums as well.

Oh my god he just ran in

If I see someone in the right turning lane with their right indicator on, I assume they are about to turn right.

If I see someone in the right turning lane but they have their left indicator on, I assume they want to leave the turning lane.

If I see someone in the right turning lane without their indicator on, I assume they are probably going to turn right but they may have made a mistake or changed their mind, so I’m more cautious if I’m passing or try to leave room for them to get out if appropriate. This is the most annoying situation for me because I have less information to guess what they might do next.

Sorry, I’m probably missing something because I don’t see how that would help if the government is not open to feedback. As a concrete example let’s say you strongly oppose the anti secession law from 2005 and believes it should be abolished or reworked entirely. Is there an avenue for working towards bringing about such a radical policy change within the government as a citizen?

It’s good that those resources exist. What if it’s a policy that the government is not open to feedback on?

As a citizen, what’s the most effective way for you to bring about change on a government policy you don’t agree with?
