I love genuine questions and people putting in the effort to love and understand each other better. If you come at me just wanting to argue I’m going to troll you back. FAFO.

Who have you known that was extremely good at a job no one wants?
What vital task did you not realize someone was doing regularly until they suddenly stopped?
Could be a partner, roommate, coworker, or somebody you volunteered with. They could have stopped for any reason from leaving, getting sick or hurt or even dying to just getting sick of doing that one thing and stopping.

What hobbies or volunteer work require creative problem solving from lots of different areas?
I’m a bit of a jack of all trades. When I work on a project I use anything from woodworking and sewing to chemistry and physics to human physiology and psychology. I also like reading up then chatting about random science and history and art stuff. I like working with computers occasionally, and I’ll just randomly throw some...
Anyone else find the decision to code Raava as femme and Vaatu as masc an interesting (although not necessarily bad) choice? (64.media.tumblr.com)
I’ve been doing a lot of reading into various spiritual concepts and practices from around the world and typically light/order/yang is masculine and dark/chaos/yin is usually feminine. Is there another concept that’s being referenced or is this just a minor but interesting artistic decision?...

Best advice columnists?
Like in the same vein as Ask Amy or Dear Prudence. I’m trying to get away from Best of Redditor Updates but I’m not ready to quit my “oh no she didn’t!” addiction just yet.

I like ballotpedia.org but am very open to other resources or suggestions for how to get good info. Honestly half the reason I’m posting this is to start a solid thread of resources....
Most unique looking celebrities?
I’m working on a side project studying variations in human facial features. It’s been helpful to study celebrity faces because it’s easy to find numerous reference photos. I’ve actually got a fairly good range of weird looking white men, turns out Hollywood is pretty flush with those, but it’s been harder to find...

If you had to give one piece of advice that is pretty much universally applicable, what would it be?

Would suction cups work in space?
You know like the kind that go on a window or bathroom mirror or on the wall or in the shower. They need the atmosphere pushing down on them to work, right?
