I have a friend who does forestry for an electric company. He just ran into his first lantern flys in central Ohio yesterday. Fun times ahead

Every year you get warned “dont pipette by mouth” because you will sometimes find some 120 year old lab guide that says “pipette by mouth 13ml of 3M NaOh”. Those og chemists went hard.
I chose the dirty pipettes from the organic chemistry lab!
I call it “stand and deliver”
No audit is well intended. The whole ppint of an audit is to find duplicitous and fucked up shit.
Right now i am waiting tables, so black slacks/ jeans, black undershirt, and either a black polo or dress shirt depending on the weather
Suddenly it’s not so cool when another man steals your wife
Arenyou gonna start calling Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Orcus planets?
We went through this 150 years ago ehen the asteroid belt was discovered. Every astronomer wanted credit for discovering a new planet, so at one point there were 15 before all the astronomers got together and said it was untenable.
Musk-ovites that want to take NASA’s budget and out it in Elon Musk’s pocket.
No, because they aren’t undergoing hydrogen fusion due to their insufficient mass.
Same as nicotine. It keeps insects away
I work 12 hour shifts so my sink becomes an abomination the days i work. But get me stoned and I’ll have everything in the drying rack put away and everything in the sink cleaned.
Oil jas constant demand and the Saudis have so much of it that it costs them very little to drill for it and store it. And digging a new well doesn’t immediately flood the market with 4x the annual production of oil.
I’m not arguing against asteroid mining. I am saying that it is fundamentally impossible under our current capitalist system. That’s why there has been zero advances in the concept in iver a decade.
Asteroid mining is incompatible with current capitalism. Say you harvest an asteroid with 100,000 of platinum in it. You in theory now have trollions of dollars in platinum for the $40 billion you spent harvesting the asteroid, only you have now quadrupled the amount of platinum in the economy, crayering the price and totally ruining your company. It’s obviously a net good for humanity as a scarce resource is now abundant, but it is bad for capitalism because the ones who finaced the work are the biggest loser.
What is this app and why would i want my phone telling me about the sounds it heard?
The US has vast deposits of pro much every strategic resource except rubber. Neoliberalism simply decided that American metals weren’t competitive enough (because they would have to oay American wages vs slave wages in other countries) so they have been left alone. If you look a a graph of domestic mineral production, they all crashed in the 80’s. The US didn’t run out of those resources, they jist decided to look elsewhere.
I appreciate what Charles Taylor did fashion and footwear, but i find i hard to seperate it from his warcrines in Liberia.
It’s easy. Just go to events in your community. Hang out at a restaurant or bar and socialize with people, go to the farmers market and ask the stall owners questions about their business. Say hi to people you recognize. Go to your local council meetings, or special festivals that are happening around town. Unfortunately you will find that nowhere is toxic people resistant, but just be friendly and chat with people you meet throughout the day, and you would be blown away at how far it will take you to establishing connections in your community.
Admittedly i live in a small college town in rural Ohio, but i always run into so many people that want to say hi to me, despite just being a college drop out who works a factory job. I even had the mayor’s wife personally invite me to her birthday party because i was her favorite server at the restaurant i work at. If you come across as a friendly person, people will want to be friends with you. I bake way more than i can eat, so i am constantly giving little treats to my favorite bartenders, waiters, friends, and co-workers.
Started to feel bad at work and then drove home on the worlds first acid trip.
