What about staying at 0?
Why is debt better than no debt AND no surplus?

Szyler ,

To add to this. The sensory experience of showers is a lot.

  1. being comfortable in your warm clothes
  2. having to take them off to get cold
  3. having to get wet and warm
  4. having to dry yourself with a rough (ish) towel
  5. Getting cold again
  6. Damp air makes it harder to breathe
  7. Putting on different clothes which potentially feels different from the used ones
  8. Getting out of the bathroom to non-humid air
  9. Coldness of the remaining water (hair etc) evaporating

I also have sound sensitivities, so the sound of water hitting the floor is also disturbing.

As someone else said above, it is hard to calculate exactly how much they gained.

Instead using a set % of revenue would be simpler.
If enough companies do it, raise the %.
If someone repeatedly does it relative to others, raise the % for them on each repeated case.

That way it is simple, but still scalable and adjustable.

Similarly, scale it down if it disproportionate to how much is saved by breaking the law, or how much it hurts the society , to ensure it is a just punishment, and not a tool for big corporations to hurt smaller ones etc.

Shouldn't it be the other way? The gender staying a girl under boy conditions, until given a shock to then become a boy?

If you go from girl to boy without changing temperature, you are moving horizontally from right to left, crossing the boundary from girl to boy, but without nucliation sites the transition does not occur.

Same with water going left stays water until given a shock to become ice by changing temperature to be supercooled past the transition line.

'Vortex Cannon vs Drone' - Mark Rober shows off tech from a "defense technology company that specializes in advanced autonomous systems". That seems bad

I've enjoyed Mark Rober's videos for a while now. They are fun, touch on accessible topics, and have decent production value. But this recent video isn't sitting right with me...

While I don't want to support weapons, blaming people that bought the vr headset in the past for what he would do with the money after the sale is a very bad take.
You can't blame them for not knowing the future.

Also the argument itself doesn't make much sense and can be strawmaned to "you pay taxes, therefore you are a complicit in the murders of your military, therefore you are a bad person".

Rulerrection day (leminal.space)

Update: Thanks to a few of y'all who got me to look at things differently I think there was a miscommunication. I called my mom, and sorta cleared things up, they said they thought that my message out to them was saying I was planning on celebrating trans day of visibility, and not just mentioning it off hand after accepting the...

Szyler ,

All you needed was an "also" in there to clarify it was an additional thing that day, not a replacement for their thing.
Turning it into:
"March 31st is also trans visibility day btw :)"

Doesn't fix their bad initial assumption, but would help them in the right direction

Szyler ,

Definitely do!
