I lot of people look at this and say its just too much material for it to have happened.
But we know of projects that have used more man power. The London to Birmingham railway line took 5 years to build and moved more material than the great pyramid and we know exactly how that was done. The size of individual pieces does add complication, but the absolute quantity and manpower is not unexplainable.
Not exactly what you want but I heard about people in the military practising things and they learn. “Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.”
By doing that it makes you quicker. Sometimes when I’m late and start rushing I end up forgetting things or knocking things over or dropping. So I take a breath and say slow is fast. Also my career history is big on “right first time” doing something twice is a huge waste.
Also I remember Adam Savage said he got close to death (or was getting close to being rescued from death) then he told himself “Calm people live. Tense people die.” and he managed to free himself.
Taking a moment might not just save you time or money it might save your life.
I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I’m surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I’m prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I’m the only one.
A product you were just talking about pops up in an online ad. How? Advertising algorithms are so good that they may know what you want even before you do. C...
I heard a big one is location. If your mate just came back from Asia and talks to you about it and you then see ads for holidays to Asia. It’s because if the location proximity to him, not the conversation. They just assume you would talk about it
You know what is better than crying and taking mind altering drugs? Not needing either.
I know this is a joke post (at least I really hope it is) but why are some women so against men being happy? Like they want do to everything in their power to take away “guy stuff” it’s not enough that they don’t have to go. But the fact they don’t like it means that no one else should and men are wrong because they do something women don’t.
I strongly believe that men’s mental health is positively impacted by male groups. But women don’t want men to have male groups. Women can obviously! That goes without saying. But men. No, not allowed they should be ashamed of themselves.
I think it’s a really issue in society and you never ever hear women criticise women’s role in negatively impacting men. But somehow I bet this is all the patriarchy’s fault
Where I come from men’s clubs are illegal. So yes, like it or not it’s already been proven to have happened.
I like how you think know what all women have ever done though. My housemates was telling that what me and the members of our rugby club get up to at our own private bar, singing, drinking and fucking about with each other isn’t okay. That although we are all their voluntarily and they we all very much enjoy it, and its good for our mental health, it shouldn’t be allowed. In fact she said if it was up to her a lot of sport would be banned.
Here’s a genuine question. Why do you, my housemates, other women think they know absolutely what is best for mental mental health when it goes against what men even say?
I’ve got a lot more support from men than I have from women. And I’ve seen guys get a lot more hurtful abuse from women than I have from men. But that goes against the narrative that all issues in the world are caused by the patriarchy and that women can do no wrong.
If the suicide rate is so high for men maybe we should start by asking men what they need? How would having women telling them everything that they have done wrong a good thing?
What women cannot understand is men are different to women. We act in a different way to you and that’s perfectly okay. What is not okay is women telling men how they need to act.
Also if you want to do a bit of reading go find all the questions on the internet to the effect of “why don’t you open up to your girlfriend” and you can hear all the horrific ways women use men’s vulnerability against them. You can see the general consensus being that more often than not opening up to women makes things worse because of how women react to a vulnerable man and that if you need to talk about problems do it with men.
But again that goes against the feminist argument that men’s issues are only to do with toxic masculinity and the patriarchy. But lol what do men know about their issues own issues? Nothing.
Of course they are. The point is it is normalised and that’s the issue.
Women telling men what they should do, what they shouldn’t do, how everything in their life is other men’s fault and no one else’s. All perfectly acceptable.
If we want men to be happier mentally we should start by asking men what they need. What we shouldn’t do is get women to tell then what they need. Also women need to take responsibility for the negative things they do, why should they get a free pass to mistreat people? Just because they aren’t “part of the patriarchy”?
Like I seen this the other day. Some guy talking about what makes him happy and he gets told he’s sad for doing it.

In the UK there was a peaceful protester and the Chinese dragged him into the embassy grounds and beat him in front of the public. They have diplomatic immunity.
Nothing was done obviously.
No wonder China and Russia shit over us and act like we are weak. We are. We proved it multiple times.
WW2 was about containing the USSR. Even before Germany fell Churchill was warning about Russia. He wanted to free Eastern Europe before the Soviets got there. But the Americans cared more about glory and wanted to capture Berlin so Eastern Europe was abandoned.
Obviously someone that hasn’t spent much time in a factory and don’t know what they are talking about.
Sure you got to go through all the safety requirements but that’s not a skill.
I’ve seen job were people load material into a machine and people box finished good, or people destroying WIP, or people moving material, or picking up WIP.
You are just confidently incorrect. A skilled job is something where you are trained and/or have experience in and it takes a long time to teach and learn. Unskilled is were you can grab people from the street and get them working within a day.
Surely you can see why based on supply and demand and cost of training both for the person and the business that unskilled pays less. Why should they be paid the sane as skilled work? It doesn’t make sense.
Well if you change the definitions of things then anything can mean anything.
I don’t know what you expect. The fundamental reason unskilled labour is paid less is because basically anyone can do it. You can call it whatever you want but it won’t pay the same amount as skilled labour, or whatever you want to call that.
Not everyone no, some people have severe mental and physical disabilities.
Everyone that showed up could do the job in that amount of time from what I understand. Some people left because they didn’t like it and some people had issues with authority or we lazy and wasn’t asked back. But there was a revolving door or temps coming through and no one seemed to struggle.
Where’s that 4chan post where all the BLM rioters tried to set up a new community in Seattle or something. Then they had everyone give there skills and what that want to do in the new world, everyone was saying they can grow food. Then there was the crappest plot of veggies I have ever seen.
There is a whole thing about land use rights and energy and sustainability. But just because one guy was right on that doesn’t mean the whole movement wasn’t a complete disaster from the start.
As much as this website hates capitalism I’m still pro capitalist. But even I admit a lot needs to be changed. Land is one of the big things I have been contemplating lately. Having said that, there wont be any meaningful food production in cities for anything but mental health reasons.
