I still remember the way my science teacher explained a hypothetical warp drive (like how it is in Star Trek). He took a black towel, representing space, and laid it flat on a table. He set down a miniature model of the Enterprise on one end of the towel, then accordion-folded the towel up so that the other end was close to the ship. He moved the Enterprise over to that end of the towel, and unfolded it so that it was flat again. The Enterprise was now on the other end of the table.

An overly simplified visualization, but it really illustrated the idea to my ten year old brain how space-time could hypothetically be bent to make fast interstellar travel a possibility. Also it made me realize that warp speed on the Enterprise wasn’t just a super powerful rocket or something.

I’m gonna be that guy from Mad Max 2 (The Road Warrior for us USians) who spends the majority of the movie held hostage and tied to the front of Lord Humongous’ buggy and at the end gets smashed up against the back of Mel Gibson’s tanker truck when Mel brake checks Humongous.

Huh, i don’t remember being in any presidential debate.

“Obama is an Arab.” “No, he’s not, he’s a decent family man and citizen.”

Even when I was a lib I thought that take was condescending and racist as fuck. Arabs can’t be decent or citizens? WTF John, and WTF libs for thinking that’s taking the moral high ground??

I actually like how younger people are going more minimalist in their fashion taste. Lots of reappropriation of stereotypical work clothes, like Dickies pants, overalls, stuff like that. That’s a neat trend I’ve noticed.

Ngl, I unironically love rugged workwear, especially winter clothes. When I was 18-19 I had a Craftsman duck canvas jacket that i found at a thrift shop. It was heavy as hell but warm and comfortable. It became my preferred style even though I don’t work construction or anything like that.

I catch myself rewinding them over and over because steps happen too fast or are not clear enough. Worse so ever since YouTube fucked up the seek bar in the mobile app so it’s more difficult to precision seek a video.

Software tutorials especially. Even worse are the ones that are screen recorded off a 4K desktop so that unless you’re also watching the video at 4K, you’re not gonna be able to see where the mouse cursor is because the compression makes it almost invisible.

I wouldn’t blame it on the current generation, though. People my own age do this shit too.

I shouldn’t complain too much because it’s free tech support and they’re making these videos for no money , and probably for a program that I pirated.

This is in a lot of shows and not just sitcoms, but I hate contrived argumentative dialogue that’s set up so that the protagonist always gets the last word with “witty” responses/comebacks. It’s like watching a “I’m the attractive Chad and you are the ugly NPC” meme in real time.

Every time the weather goes out of whack, some huge torrential storm or freak wildfire, people (particularly chuds who think climate change is a hoax) will be quick to say it’s weather modification or HAARP or some shit.
