Always thought this guy was a boss!

Game of Thrones

I'd signed up for an account here once the ridiculousness started, but didn't start frequenting until just now (first post) because Boost stopped working completely. Ah well, definitely not installing the official app. I was over there for 12 years or so too. I have a feeling lurkers won't really care and keep using the site just like there are people who still use Facebook and what-not, but it certainly won't ever be cool again.

This is precisely the answer I was looking for, though I didn't know it when I asked. Thank you!

Anyone who appreciates this one and hasn't read the entirety of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations (compiled into book form) really should. Many gems of stoic wisdom therein.

This is a double-edged saber, so to speak. The quality of Star Wars projects has dropped off in consistency lately, however the overall popularity has increased. I'd say this is likely to retain the same value over the coming years as it has experienced from its origins a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

I love this. As a software engineer, I see people run into this issue all the time. I've often heard it as, "Done is better than perfect."

This guy Jesse on Alone Season 5 was running out of food and had read about native tribes creating bread from tree bark, so he stripped some off a pine tree and ate it. It seemed edible but hard to pass. The video shows the aftermath, basically he had to tap out and be rescued due to severe abdominal pain. However, apparently it is a thing, I'm not sure how you could do it in a way your stomach can handle though, and most likely it has to be specific species of trees.

I farted.

This is some sort of childish tech-classist B.S. Like you wouldn't talk to a friend because of the shoes they wore or the car they drove. Who cares about people like that?

Not for everyone. Antiperspirants irritate my skin. There are deodorants that work well for me, like Dove.

For most circumstance, I want to be mid-bell. In the workplace it means I can both learn from and teach others. Oftentimes, I'd prefer expertise in some areas (smartest in room) but lack of knowledge in other areas that I'm interested in but know there are others there who are experts and are willing to help me grow. In social situations I think it's similar, though there I prefer to interact with people who are open, friendly and kind regardless of their intelligence.

Not at all. My best friend adores him. She loves camp in general, so that may be the requisite. She loved the show, loved his movies. I took her to see him live and she loved that too. I need to give her a call and make sure she's ok today. RIP

It's been a few years now since they died and I still think of my little furry ones as part of my family and talk about them fairly regularly. Having photos of them pop up on our TV slideshow helps keep them alive on our hearts. I'm sorry for and understand your loss and hope their memory brings you more joy than pain. Beautiful pals

Fascinating, thank you for showing us the human behind the meme.

It was both a joke and my real life. I hope I have a similar experience. I'm a virgin after all... for this anyway.

There is actually a lot being done about it, just not enough.

I'm same age as OP and love Skrillex. Pretty in the loop with tech. Use they/them when asked without complaint. Am out of shape though, need to work on that part. Still miss my Commodore VIC20 and IBM XT though.

And those are all a "deal-breaker in friendships" for you? I think we all realize people find all sorts of reasons to use us-vs-them mindset, that's not really the point of this conversation. What reasons you choose to make your friends or otherwise be decent to someone decides whether or not you're being immature or even a bigot.
