It’s a film of goo. If you’re in a kitchen of a smokers house and a tea kettle or boiling pot goes for a bit, rusty drips will form on the ceiling and down the walls. There’s a filmy goo to it if you get it on your hands. It’s a piece of what needs to be cleaned then painted over, sometimes multiple times, to lock it away.
I guess if there’s no context for it, then it’s a mere sepia tone or some such.
I could not find a listing for this paint of yours.
Smoking.
Do you know why all the wall paint and curtains of the 70s and 80s never included pristine white? Yes, that’s why. I’m convinced the choices of golds, oranges, and browns were just giving in to the inescapable film of nicotine tinge on everything, everywhere.
To this day, when I see “cream”, “ecru”, “chiffon” or any other creative name for not-quite-white, I think of nicotine stains.
Restaurant smoking was the worst.
I’ve never, and this is likely why. Growing up in that acrid awfulness was a great deterrent.
As soon as the Nov 6 vote came in a giant, cosmic level popping sound occurred from the sudden force of withdrawal of America as an Ally nation on the geopolitical scene.
We are now authoritarian. And have an erratic, Axis style leader.
Of course everyone is going to get even more squirrelly. I’m convinced Russia and Israel behavior never would’ve happened without Trump weakening the American force of personality the first time.
Yes. There’s also colonialists validating colonialists going on in Israel, but Trump gave the world an excuse to be erratic and impulsive.
Never played anything like call of duty, so idk, my experience is limited.
You would think, because we live in a society, it would just be cool like that.
I’m a dnd fan, so ofc I played the MMO. Within the DND MMO, I had no harassment as a woman on a mic. In fact, it appeared as if ~50% of those playing and on mic were women. Granted, that was years ago. And maybe DND was, and is, a different scene.
Way back with vanilla and BC WOW, same though. No issues and lots of women playing. Self moderated social groupings, probably.
Granted, there was a social effect of 1 woman on a mic drawing out all the other women, a social permission & safety element.
No idea what it is now though, I’m too old for it now. If it’s rampant with harassment, that’s just sad, for everyone.
This is from 10yrs ago. Adult Swim joke skit.
More likely to be bidets.
“Allowed”.
Think I found the “nice guy” underlying reasons.
I guess I just assumed everyone was using Firefox, except the business side of things, but then this isn’t my area. Why wouldn’t you use Firefox at home?
Waiting for President Elon to kill unions.
Working my way through Baldurs Gate 2 ee. Never finished it back in the early 00s. Maybe this time I’ll rescue Imoen and figure out Jon Irenicus’ deal. Currently still side questing.
It gets listed as such.
A lot if left leaving journalism can get annoying, but The Atlantic is solid. I’d believe them.
I really do worry about Trumps 1A speech. He may very well go after Blue Sky in a the ways he promised, under the premise of 1A. Now these same bullies have the President in their corner, possibly wielding the DOJ on it.
There’s a reason Proud Boys and southern Oregon neo nazis show up to large Portland OR protests. The rationale is no different than what The Atlantic discusses here, even the context is the same, only shifted away from the keyboard.
Sure but most human issues involve multiple variables. Full spectrum discussion offers an even more realistic presentation of the problem. It doesn’t detract to discuss other things, it supplements.
Exactly. For a second there I thought I was on Reddit reading a response to someone with “human” in their user name.
It’s not AI, it’s a mimic. Could you see this as a Reddit post? I can. The chat bots have all absorbed 10?, maybe more, years of Reddit. And that’s just one platform. Disqus, YouTube comments, and 4/8Chan are probably in there as well. You know Facebook and Instagram are. Among others.
What in that phrasing doesn’t read like a partially digested mishmash of save the planet and fuck Boomers social media rants?
Social media style chat responses after absorbing social media TO LEARN TO TALK should be expected.
Given the source material, would anyone be able to prune all of the foulness and BS with algorithms?
Given our current education deficit, we’ve already had to import quite a bit of talent to keep up with being a first world country.
Example: when was the last time you encountered an Indian doctor?
Given the plans to make real/higher education accessible only to the wealthy, we’re going to need to import even more talent.
That is…what a way to inspire mass exodus in the remaining employees.
Here, be honest. Thank you. You’re fired. This feels very Trump-y.
