• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'The past is an underused tool': An Elizabethan mansion's secrets for staying warm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It tends to be colder around windows, so I can understand why you’d want to warm those areas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With the ICE raids coming up at a very faster rate, do we need more self-defense (or community defense organizing) classes?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There are lots of interesting manuals available on the internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have seen a lot of movies where the Catholic School Nuns smack a students hand for being disruptive or something is this a trope or a real something? Like most notable in Blues Brothers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My principal had that, too! He kept it hanging on the wall in his office, and students could see it when we walked by. It scared me, but I never saw or heard of him using it on anyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US | Supreme Court takes case that could strip FCC of authority to issue fines⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  How do they identify who owns the antenna to sue them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US | Verizon to stop automatic unlocking of phones as FCC ends 60-day unlock rule⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if this is going to change the price of unlocked used phones. Last time I bought a phone, it was unlocked and the same price as the locked ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I feel comfortable/safe going outside by myself after being so used to have parent(s) be with me outside most of my life?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You just have to work up to it, little by little. Getting a job, hobby, or volunteer work that takes you to lots of different places can help.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vivid dreams about love⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, dream love is the best. Sad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Innocent African-American child George Stinney executed after being falsely accused of murdering two white girls | 1944⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the idea that people I’ve never met who did something I don’t agree with decades before I was born define me as a person because we’re from the same country is…weird.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨at what point in life it's too late to go back to school?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve known even elderly people to go back and complete advanced degrees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you a market or supermarket enthusiast?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Local supermarkets, local brands. I would like to buy more directly from the source, though.

  Soma was amazing. It’s been a long time.

  And the flavor of good ones is so good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are famous chefs fighting PFAS bans?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for hard anodized aluminium and nitrided iron, which I think are both safer than Teflon. And enamel?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are famous chefs fighting PFAS bans?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My impression was that Teflon pans became obsolete decades ago. We have so many better, affordable options now.

  My bf tried this and liked it but didn’t play for long. Now his friend is trying to get us both playing with her. I’m down with trying it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you ever feel like your life is "scripted"? Like everything is written by some entity controlling your life? Like you live in a fictional universe? Is this feeling normal/common?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t feel like any of those things, personally.

  Ohh, that game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are people with High functioning autism allowed to become police officers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Weird. I used to work with someone who was diagnosed with high functioning autism who later joined the military, and that was after he was forcibly institutionalized for trying to murder someone (and drug problems). Had no idea that was supposed to keep you out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Study reveals that dark web users show significantly higher levels of depression, paranoia, suicidal thoughts, self-injury, and digital self-harm compared to surface web users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
