It'll be a cold day in Cupertino before I accept a UN ID. I'll reconsider once the corporate death counts begin to match the governmental ones but until then I'll take my chances.

I spent a decade as a public library board member. I saw every possible combination of anti-social behavior from the homeless that would encamp there. Many times I had to 'assist' asking someone to leave. The librarians _could_

I cannot think of a region of this planet with LESS biodiversity than Manhattan/San Fran/megalopolii. "Concrete Jungle" is just a euphemism.

I still listen to commercial radio and my 'hard rock' local radio station runs ads for this stuff all the time. Carpenters, hvac, and sheet rock are what I remember but I do my best to tune commercials out, sorry. ;) Lots of dri

> And collective action by informed voters would quickly solve most major issues - but most Americans becoming well informed voters is an unrealistic expectation. If all Americans had my education, they would think exactly like me.

Still too dangerous to speak out. I wouldn't advise anyone to do so if they are currently employed or would like to be employed in the future.

Hang in there. It took me a year to even feel 'normal'. Some days are 'one foot in front of each other'.

I remember this too. Honestly I should go back and thank the mod/poster because that little splash of cold water prepared me for everything that has come after that. I think about it every now then when I run into the newer variations

I enjoyed the part referencing selected/highlighted areas rotating 'correctly'. I had to try it and it was just as pleasing as you said it would be. Kudos for the write-up and kudos to the anonymous devs out there who wrote

I was 35 when I pulled myself out of a 15 year tailspin. It's been more than a decade since but I've maintained all the progress that I've made and have fully turned my life around. It's possible to do - if that Old Me

"Zero is nothing" is my first objection here. Zero is not always Nothing; I feel like there are many mathematical zeros (including Nothing). The duality of existence and non-existence means that We all share fundamentals, totally

Well then by all means they should keep doing what they're doing. Just following orders, right? Every snowflake thinks themselves innocent in an avalanche.

This is an extremely bad faith take. The person you are replying to said nothing of the sort and now you're implying that they're a bad person. But not saying it out loud, of course. Just "the implications"...

Nielsen (of TV ratings fame) has been selling this sort of data mining to grocers for decades. Decades ago I worked for a small regional chain and we based a lot of decisions off that data - we could have never done it on our own. For any

I had one too! Lasted less than five seconds but it felt like 'the hand of God' passed through me - that's the best way I can describe it. William James described a religious experience as having four qualities: - Ineffable:
