Schrödinger's Immigrant
  • So it's a mix, just like natural born citizens and most other subsets of the population? The point is you don't get to point at both as bad boogeyman when you're looking at two sides of a coin of life: you're either employed or you're unemployed and in need of government assistance. If you villify both of those for one race and/or nationality, that's racism and/or xenophobia.

    how's your week going, Beehaw
  • Pretty great actually. On my first relaxation vacation with no specific agenda in several years. The beach is gorgeous, the breeze is cool and the drinks are flowing. Life can be good, sometimes anyway. Trying not to think about the work stacking up that will be waiting for me on my return.

    ‘Severance’ Season 2 Finally Gets First Footage as Adam Scott Returns to Lumon — With Balloons
  • I would agree if it hadn't ended on such a massive and tantalizing cliffhanger. I think it's got another season in it for sure, but it also definitely doesn't need to be dragged out for several more seasons.

    Pizza in your school 1993
  • Close, but my elementary school only had two options: pepperoni or plain cheese. This sausage option must have come from the school in the rich kids neighborhood

    What's the worst natural disaster you've been in?
  • Hurricane Harvey was a bastard of a storm.

    I was up all hours of the night for days on end keeping tabs on the flood control reservoir at the end of my street only a few houses away, it got dangerously close to overflowing but fortunately never did.

    Craziest thing, I remember being inside my house in the middle of the day all dark no power, and I hear the unmistakable sound of a military helicopter getting closer and closer and suddenly the house was starting to shake. I ran outside and looked up and there was a Blackhawk hovering no higher than 50 meters directly above my house and a soldier poking their head out the side looking straight down, I swear we made eye contact it was so close. Fucking wild.

  • Generally speaking yes, but there are some exceptions.

    For example, flashlights intended to be attached to a firearm DO incur a premium for a good reason. They're subjected to intense sudden movement and vibration, repeatedly, and it takes a lot of extra hardening and redundancy to develop a light that can repeatedly withstand that kind of abuse without eventually knocking core components loose. If you were to try to attach a tactical light intended for airsoft/bb use to a real firearm, its not going to last long. There's a reason gun lights are as expensive as they are.

    I made a thing
  • This is cool, but it bothers me that the inhale cycle doesn't end with completely filling the circle with blue. I feel unfulfilled, like when the DVD player screensaver doesn't hit neatly into the corner of the screen when it totally looks like it's going to
