LanternEverywhere,

Absolutely! More recent memories are much easier to recall. In the hours leading up to the test you should be again reviewing the material. Exactly like you said, there have been many times when i got an answer right instead of wrong purely because i had just re-read that info again a few minutes before the test. This is especially true for a test that requires a lot of memorization.

LanternEverywhere,

Bike ride outdoors. Stationary bike doesn't boost mood for me, only actually biking through space does it.

LanternEverywhere,

Ooo that's a great one! Helping someone else makes me feel good basically 100% of the times i do it. And it doesn't even have to be a major help, or even a moderate help, just helping someone in a minor way gives me a good feeling.

The whole topic of drugs could easily be covered in 30 minutes. The only thing people under 18 need to know is this:

  1. There are a large variety of different recreational drugs, each of which make you feel a different way, and which come with their own set of different risks and benefits
  1. At some point when you're older it may be reasonable for you to try some particular drugs, but there are some drugs which are never safe for anyone at any age
  1. No drugs are safe for you to do yet. Your brain is still in a developing phase, and drugs that might be safe for you to do later will be very harmful to you at this age. Even though taking a drug might make you feel good in the very short term moment, it very likely could make your growing brain become depressed as soon as you come down from the drug, and this can become intense sadness that you feel for the rest of your life.

So for now just know that drugs is a complex topic that you can learn more about later when you're older, but for now the details don't matter because all drugs will be harmful to you right now while your brain is still growing

IANAL but if you don't object you still can't ask for a mistrial unless you argue that the defense given by the lawyers was literally incompetent, and I'm far from an expert but i think that's a pretty hard bar to reach. Especially if pre-trial they would put that lawyer on the stand and ask why they didn't object during the testimony but only complained after the testimony, and i can't imagine any valid argument that would be accepted by a court.

Bottom line, I'm not an expert at all, but if they purposely didn't object so that they could ask for a mistrial, I'm pretty sure that won't work at all

LanternEverywhere,

Employees create your sales. If there's redundancy in job tasks then firing people can increase profits, but massive layoffs is mainly just reducing output capabilities.

few people to do work = few profits

In the span of a year or two this can increase profits because costs have gone down, but pretty soon the company will run out of its backlog and then profits will tank in a way that can't be recovered from for years

LanternEverywhere,

(Not an insult) i assume you're autistic or have some autistic traits, so maybe people in the autism forums could help too.

Generally you can look at anything and everything you want to look at, but just don't do it for more than a few seconds in a row.

Like for example if there's two of you at a table and you're having a conservation then it would go something like this. look in you tablemate's eyes for 3-5 seconds, then look at your plate for a few seconds while you're using your utensils on your food, then look in your tablemate's eyes for another 3-5 seconds, then look at the wall decor for a few seconds, then back at your tablemate's eyes for a few seconds, then back on your plate to look at what you're eating for a few seconds, then back to your tablemate's eyes again for a few seconds. Now that i talk it out, i think it's right for about every other look to be at your tablemate's eyes.

Basically it's the same as any situation where you're having a conversation with someone. Look at their eyes for a few seconds, then look at something else for a couple seconds, then look back at their eyes again for a few seconds.

LanternEverywhere,

Most people don't consciously think about these things very often at all. Generally there's only a very occasional sudden realization that you've been starting at a person's eyes for a bit too long and so look away for a moment. But really this is only a very very occasional thing. We almost never consciously think "ok where should i point my eyes now?"

Or at least that's how it is for me. I guess I'm assuming that's how it is for most people too.

LanternEverywhere,

Questions with presuppositions should be removed by the mods.

LanternEverywhere, (edited )

You apparently don't know what passive aggressive means. I'm being open and direct. Your question is based on a presupposition and it should be removed.

LanternEverywhere,

You can have electricity off grid using solar panels. But not Internet.

LanternEverywhere,

Hm, that's on the borderline of what is or isn't "off grid". The Internet itself is a "grid", so if you're connecting to it in any way at all then i think that's "on grid". IMO

LanternEverywhere,

Dude you just aren't discerning enough to be able to appreciate the complexities and subtleties of a truly artistic song like that

LanternEverywhere,

Holy fucking shit literally laughing out loud over here!!!

[Serious] Do you know of any processed snack foods with some vitamins?

Trying to keep my very picky eater 3yo healthy as we’re (hopefully) expanding his diet. Right now the only foods I can get him to actually eat are McDonald’s, a specific brand of yogurt, banana bread, some crackers and some bars. Refuses any beverage besides water. (He’s likely on the spectrum.)

LanternEverywhere,

Freeze dried fruit. It makes fruit taste and crunch more like candy. My nephew goes crazy for freeze dried fruit. Blueberries, figs, mango, there's so many to try

LanternEverywhere,

We have those in the states too. They're yummy

LanternEverywhere,

THE /S IS ALWAYS NECESSARY

I don't know how anyone could live through the last decade and not see how important it is to denote when you're being sarcastic. "It ruins the joke" is preferable over it ruins society. Without the S idiots will read what you wrote and think there's people out there who actually support their idiotic ideas

LanternEverywhere,

Bzzzt. Incorrect

LanternEverywhere, (edited )

Dude you're grasping at straws. I'm sure you think you're a genius, but you're not. You're wrong about this, but nothing anyone says could ever convince you if it.

LanternEverywhere,

Oh i absolutely boost my own comments because it's bizarre that it isn't done automatically like every other site with voting in existence does. What i don't do is use an alt account to boost it a second time

LanternEverywhere,

The sample size of male social works is 2. Not even remotely a large enough sample to say anything at all about the group as a whole.

LanternEverywhere,

Absolutely. All questions that have an unsupported presupposition should be removed by the mods IMO.

LanternEverywhere,

It's important to not stereotype based on a tiny number of samples. If i saw 15 white social workers who were mostly nice, and 2 black social workers who were rude, do you think it would be reasonable for me to say white social workers are nice and black social workers are rude? There are literally hundreds of thousands of social workers. You've seen 17 of them. And only 2 were men. Plus i bet they were mostly all from the same agency, so the person doing the hiring there will very much be filtering who you work with, and the individual doing the hiring at that particular place may choose to hire nice women and rude men.

Bottom line - I totally believe what you say about your personal experiences, but the number of men you worked with isn't anywhere near big enough to say anything about men social workers as a group.

LanternEverywhere,

Q doesn't just have powerful fake-god-like powers, he has actual god-level powers. He can simply decide to be totally unaffected by a simple pull of a vacuum. He'd laugh at your attempt while standing there stationary

LanternEverywhere,

For sure, China is a manufacturing juggernaut, no question. They also have 4 times the population of the US. But in terms of raw numbers, absolutely China is the biggest manufacturer
