4·57 minutes agoThis will shift the blame for closing the Strait from Trump for starting this damned war in the first place to Trump for just closing the Strait.
Good to cut out the middleman, I guess.

It’s literally the only way.
Go to job fairs, talk loudly about your skills when out and about and with anyone who’ll listen (I know a literal expert that does this. He works in multiple sectors including a couple different governments, has like 8 jobs making an absolute killing), meet people online, go back to school, attend a church, anything that let’s you get in front of people and talk about what you (can) do.
And if something is in your ability, but not your professional experience lie a little.
There are worse things than saying “no.”
Companies aren’t hiring people without experience, and it’s cheaper to not bother upscaling your employees and just leave them trapped in their current job.
No one cares if you show up in person to ask for a job anymore, and if their hiring system is all online it can even be a bad impression because it indicates that you can’t find information from their website and follow instructions.
This seems like the kind of boomer advice my dad thinks still works and hasn’t worked in decades.

Space exploration is relatively cheap compared to our murder machines, and unlike the murder machines has practical benefits for a wide swath of people.
There’s new innovations that come around in order to get into space, new innovations from discoveries made in space, and new innovations made because we’ve gone to space.
Some of these innovations even help address problems on our own planet. GPS helps keep planes from hitting each other (which was the catalyst for making high resolution GPS publicly available in the first place), satellite imagery aids in weather prediction and disaster response, even global communication is in part because of space travel.
I care less about finding backup worlds, but even that search gives us information about the needs of life and can hint at how life came to be–answers which may be helpful in some types of medical work.
Tardigrade can survive for a shockingly long time exposed to the harsh environments of space. We wouldn’t have known that if we hadn’t gone ourselves, and understanding why they can survive so long can help us look for ways to prolong resilience in other complex life forms and environments.
The knowledge gained about keeping people safe in space will be critical to keeping people safe in other extreme environments like through the ongoing climate catastrophe.
So for the sake of progress, yes, it’s necessary. It’s another frontier for humanity to explore, and the more we explore the more we find out about ourselves and how to help people.
The rotation is partly actively maintained by muscular action from the cat. This is a chemical process that requires fuel and releases heat. This also eventually tires the cat.
Given the relatively low mass involved this really doesn’t have much potential for large scale generation. An Ox mill would be more practical in most cases.
6·5 days agoYou’re right.
When I started writing the comment there were 0 replies and the title read 36".
When I posted what was ultimately the second comment the title still read 36".
- 36 inches is about the height of a human 2 year old.
- Assuming average weight of a 2 year old is 30lbs.
- Assuming average body mass density is the same as water (1g/cm^3 ).
Then average volume of a 2 year old is:
(30lbs * 453.5924g/lbs) * cm^3 /1g = 13607.772cm^3
- Assuming volume is constant, but weight increased to 2 US tons
Then final creature density is:
(2 * 2000lbs * 453.5924g/lbs) / 13607.772cm^3 = 133.333…g/cm^3
That is about 6 times denser than the heaviest measured element and a little over half the density of the solar core.
I sincerely hope my math is right, but this is a shitpost and I didn’t have paper so :shrug_emoji_1:
196·5 days agoThe Jewish delegation reflected a broad cross-section of rabbinic and communal leadership.
Rabbi Levi Shemtov, Executive Vice President of American Friends of Lubavitch (Chabad) in Washington, DC, was joined by Rabbi Chaim David Zwiebel of Agudath Israel, the mayors of Kiryas Joel and New Square, Rabbi David Niederman of Satmar in Williamsburg, Rabbi Moshe Margaretten of the Tzedek Association, Rabbi Meir Soloveichik of New York’s Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue.
Also in attendance were Holocaust survivor Jerry Worski, Council Member of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum Jonathan Burkan, investor Paul Packer, Holocaust Memorial Council Chairman Jeff Miller, Matt Brooks of the Republican Jewish Coalition, and Rabbi Harold Loss of Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan, recently targeted in an antisemitic attack.
Joining them from New Jersey was Edan Alexander, a released hostage from Gaza, who attended together with his parents.
Now you know.
He kinda just did it.
There was no provocation or strategic benefit and starting a war with Iran would obviously impact the global markets and the cost of oil.
No upsides, plenty of downsides, and the idiot just said “fuck it, let’s do a peace with my department of war!”
He didn’t.

The discographies of Grandson, Moon Walker, and Dropkick Murphys have a lot of good, recent, messages. Pussy Riot has a couple of generic and America themed songs as well. Otep has several, though they are more fueled by reaction than actual artistic talent.
I wouldn’t rule out older titles from the Vietnam or Coal Wars/Battle of Blaire Mountain Era.
