Guess it sucks to suck? Jim Jordan's had his job for 16 years and never passed a bill - but hey, let's put him in charge of making sure bills can get passed! Talk about welfare queens, this asshole loser has been taking the government's money and purposefully not working the whole time! If only we could all be so lucky.

I finished Outer Wilds a few weeks ago. It was, in my opinion, one of the strongest arguments for treating video games as an art form that I've ever experienced. It's not long - I finished it in about 20 hours - but the narrative and story is so well put together and thought out that it felt a lot longer. I thought it was beautiful and thought provoking.

Video games as a whole aren't for everyone, but if I meet someone and they're interested in games but hasn't played them much, Outer Wilds is on the top of my list of recommends. If you play a lot of video games, this one will amaze you. Don't read anything about it - just grab it when it's on sale and go in blind. I did and it made a big difference.

From my understanding, these videos contain no actual evidence of 45 committing or ordering wrongdoing. It also looks like these are clips of longer interviews. So my assumption is that someone got a hold of these videos and audio clips and edited them to make it seem like each of these people had nothing worthwhile to say in their statements, then released them.

I believe this because leaking these videos can only hurt the prosecution, particularly if nothing they're saying is inculpatory. Then conservative media outlets can run chyrons "BIG "GET" BY LOONY DA FANI A BUST!" and let the talking heads run wild on it. Then GA's DA office is then faced with a problem: do you say nothing and let people keep believing that there's nothing(which can corrode public opinion in the case which can be devastating) or possibly break confidentiality agreements with the snitches and publish what they actually said?

Who benefits from this info being out in the open? If nothing they said in these recordings fingers 45 on criminal actions, then it's not the prosecution. From where I and all other US citizens sit it sounds like these useless clowns got sweetheart deals to give almost no useful information. Hopefully this is all just some psych op from the extreme right or Russia/China/whoever they're in league with this year, and there's more info that these clowns gave in their deposition that's not included in these recordings.

Teachable moment here. Your reply is why the paradox of tolerance needs to be taught to everyone, even if it's not perfect. You didn't sign any tolerance agreement upon birth, but treating your fellow humans with tolerance if they are doing the same for you should not be something you have to consciously agree on or physically sign paperwork for.

Source: This art is of a character named Cheryl. She is featured in this artist's webcomic called I Want to be a Cute Anime Girl on Webtoons. It's very sweet and worth the read.

I think I'm special here. Most of the time if I've got a song on repeat and I'm tired of it I can think of a different song and play that instead. I just tell my brain, "Dummy, play The River by King Gizzard" and I'll hear it. It's nice.

The problem is there always needs to be a song going - there is no silence track. As soon as my brain notices that I'm not playing a song, it'll play one for me, usually the last one I heard.

If you can, try to get in and see an endocrinologist. They specialize in hormones and their effects on the body.

I saw one with my partner for her specific issues and it's made a big difference in quality of care. For one, the endo actually listens to her and works with us to find the problem. Experiences may differ but a specialist is the right path, if you're able to see one. Hope you get a chance to - it took us months to get an appointment with one near us, but it's been worth it so far.

No, seriously, that's hilarious, but it makes me wish that Amazon was the one that got the rights and not Netflix. Guess Netflix wanted their own Citizen Kane nobody-to-Oscar-winner story.

Mass shooters would have to admit that they're being pulled around by the balls like Nikki by their addiction. Not heroin like Nikki necessarily, but hate. Hate is addictive and it's just as useful as heroin for getting junkies to jump whenever they're told "frog" by TV/their handlers. Cheaper too.

Not gonna lie, I'd be horrified if someone used Operation Mindcrime as their personal manifesto. Then I'd probably stop listening to that album, and that would suck, because it's a non stop banger.

It's not the source of this comic, but the same artist that made it now makes a cute and fun to read college AU with the same characters that updates daily. It's been going for a decade now, so you'll have a lot of catching up to do, but if webcomics are your jam then I highly recommend. www.dumbingofage.com

Hyperion is not like any other book I've read before. It puts together a lot of disparate events and individuals, and you sort of need to let the story happen as it's not entirely clear at first what is going on. I love it and recommend the sequel. The third and fourth books for me were more difficult reads but they were still good. They were more traditional in the way they told the story. I liked the first two better, but I recommend the whole series.

  1. Sure, but this just replaces the music with the sound of my breathing. There's always something in my brain. The only meditative peace I can get is in a flow state e.g. working out.
  2. Yup, damn near always. Yak yak yak goes the brain.
  3. Usually just vocals unless I focus on the music, or if it's instrumental then I hear everything.
  4. Music that I can play in my brain on demand is usually music I listen to all the time already, with some exceptions. Don't have exact data on this, but it depends on context - if it's my favorite band then it'll stick around after 1 listen. If it's someone else or music I dislike it may take several listens.
  5. I play The Axe by which I mean a ukulele. Not particularly well IMO but it's fun and relaxing.
  6. I don't think so, but I can identify most songs I've heard before pretty quickly if I know the band or song name. It's like an involuntary Shazam.
