I never would have thought it possible that a person could be so full of themselves to say something like that

I’ve always been curious how the money gets to the charity. Does the corporation put the donations into an account and collect interest on it before they give it to the charity?

Of course, if they’re on the bottom of the print.
- Comment on Heat setting magnets is bad. 4 weeks ago:
I’ve used a lot of 12x3mm and smaller magnets without them jumping up and attaching to the print head but I did have it happen with larger 40x10x3 rectangular magnets. It ruined the print and caused a huge clog, but I came up with another way to embed magnets because of it.
I designed a long 10x3 tunnel into the print, printed the object without pause, then slid the magnets into the tunnel. I printed a couple spacers to go between the magnets to place them how I wanted them and I printed a plug to glue into the opening of the tunnel. The plug was a second color so it stood out and made a little accent.
I haven’t done it yet but I thought it would be cool to add a little decorative design to the original object to be printed in a second color and make the tunnel plug the same second color and hide it in the decorative design.
- Comment on Seriously Jesus, who was doing that for that to be added 😭 1 month ago:
I don’t see how quoting the two most important commandments negates any of the rest. It goes against when he said to follow all of them, even the least of them, until the end of the earth
- Comment on Seriously Jesus, who was doing that for that to be added 😭 1 month ago:
This isn’t a sermon of Moses, it’s God’s law. God said to follow his law forever. Christians ignore it, but Jesus said to follow the law forever too.
- Comment on It's worth the trip. 1 month ago:
I’m really disappointed that the patterns repeat after just a handful of letters. Whoever did this should have laid out the letters all the way around. They just designed 6 feet of it then ctrl+c ctrl+v ctrl+v ctrl+v ctrl+v ctrl+v

Alf’s favorite food was neighborhood cats. And that’s how I remembered it because I was an innocent child who was going to heaven. It never dawned on me until today, the day the internet caught me slipping, that this literally makes him a pussy eater.

Well, this killed the last bit on childhood innocence I had left. Somehow I have resisted into my 40s making this connection

Not much, what is going on with you?

- Comment on Me at my library job as the only one who will weed books 4 months ago:
Do they sell them? My local library holds a book sale every so often (6 or 12 months, not sure). Books are usually $1 for a novel up to $3-4 for a textbook sized book. It’s always packed. Some people bring carts and fill them up with dozens of books.

- Comment on Having $270 billion dollars and spending the bulk of your time trying to make more money is like weighing 900 pounds and thinking "ooh, I bet I can get to 1000". 7 months ago:

- Comment on They say “anyone can become president”, but this will be the first presidential election since 1970s, where there is no Bush, Clinton, or Biden on the ballot. 8 months ago:
A couple thoughts…
It is talking about President, but counts years where those names appeared on the ballot as Vice President too.
It also ignores that a lot of other people have also been on the ballots over the years.
Also, some of this is natural. When a president has an 8 year run, the Vice President is a natural person to take a shot at the presidency, so it’s perfectly normal to have 12 years where the same person is on the ballot as VP then P. It’s natural for this to happen more than once in a row. Whether we’ve had this long of a streak or not, I don’t know, but I suspect we might have.
This showerthought covers 44 years. The Bushs and Clintons double dipping is 12 years worth of ballots, but the other 32 years were natural. Hilary lost when she tried to double dip so I would argue the 8 years of Dubya are really the only anomaly in actual presidencies as far as “dynasties” are concerned.
