Pee and check if you have to poop before you leave, pee when you arrive at the place, pee before you start heading home, pee when you are back at home
- this is literally the childhood road trip checklist.imbecile
- Yup, the way back to the toiletmaquito
- However, I prefer “piss”maquito
- Not every pee pee time is a poo poo time. But every poo poo time is a pee pee time.microkorg
- should have told that the jan.6 insurrections than they wouldnt have pooped inside the capitol building...neverscared
- When on the go, I pre-emptively take a piss wherever toilets are available.jagara

A girl at work was wearing a Run DMC tee.
I asked her when she was born, she said 1995.
I told her that I saw them in 1989.

My shoulders hurt from sleeping wrong. How do you get hurt sleeping?
- I can relate to thissausages
- Try to sleep on your back rather than on the side. I am a side sleeper, too, so I can also relate to it.SimonFFM
- Side-sleeper here, too. I figure it's because — when I do that — my shoulder spend the whole time I'm on a given side internal rotated.Continuity
- internally*Continuity
- I say this, but remember being worse when I was 25. So I just shrug and try to do my yoga daily, prevent what you can.formed
- My shoulder is currently f'd up again, too. I don't really feel any older than I did 25 years ago and look much better. Keep working hard to be healthy!formed

I'm forgetting to zip up my fly waaaaaay more often.
(Weirdly, when I wear button fly jeans, I rarely forget to do them up.)

I have some free tickets to see either Hot Water Music or Pavement tonight and I don't think I want to go to either. I'd rather stay in and listen to music at home.
- concerts are a pain, having to stand for 4 hours and wait 2-3 hours before the show start. pain.Bennn
- I do know Cold Water Music.stewart
- Where are you going to shows? I've been to more in the last year that the last decade. I've never had to wait in line for anything but a beer.formed
- Almost every rock and pop band sounds better at home on vinyl.nb

Cynicism, or, rather, pragmatism/realism.
We're approaching 8 billion people on earth. We are creatures of habit and comfort. I don't believe for a few second, that people changing their ways will be remotely close to the defining factor in combating climate change. People (on a global level) are too uninformed, too lazy, too indifferent. Changing their ways & views is relevant, but WAYYYYY too slow a method.
I recycle, I occasionally take trains instead of planes, I turn off the electronics on standby, I vote for climate-friendly politicians. As a some Swedish activist said, "blah, blah, blah". Will this solve the crisis? It will be a factor, but nuh uh. The informed city-dweller in developed countries are doing something, but that's a sub-percentile demographic.
The solution, if there ever comes one, will be breakthroughs i technology. Fusion energy, fully electric cars, AI, robots, whatever. The solution has to be convenient for people to adopt, and will be one that doesn't disrupt capitalism, who's fighting teeth and claw against all obstacles of profit.
Discuss in groups of 4.
- *more than a few seconds...jagara
- Sorry if this is the third time I write this. I honestly don't remember. Senility is a sign of age, too XDjagara
- Or a virus that kills 70% of the population?Chimp
- This doesn't relate to age but I believe 100% of this.CyBrainX
- $$$ dictates all. As soon as "green buildings" became a money saver and was proven to make people more productive, *BOOM*, it was in every new building.formed
- We can discuss change when all basic necessities are well afforded by everybody everywhere. Until then...grafician
- Anyone want to be in my team of 4? Currently it's just 1.shapesalad
- The simple fact is rapid and ravid overpopulation, fueled by the industrial revolution. Made it pretty easy to stay alive and trash the place up.garbage
- There were about a billion humans up until then.garbage

- We are the virus.garbage
- Don't really see things getting fixed to any meaningful degree, we'll limp on and our children will pay the price.PhanLo
- FYI recycling is a bit of a sham. Instead, buy absolutely nothing if you can. If you can’t, just don’t buy anything with any plastic, ever.nb
- It’s obviously impossible but there are many options. For example, I won’t buy drinks that come in plastic bottles. Only metal cans or glass. It mattersnb

1) I believe in respecting other peoples culture, race or sexual identity. I believe in kindness, tolerance and politeness towards my fellow humans.2) I am drained of all energy and party vibes, when the party includes policies like the below. I feel like the night is going to be a mine field of accidentally offending whatever thousands of unknown sub cultural rules.
Looking forward to “being educated” (oh, the extreme arrogance of that statement) and/or possibly ejected. Enjoy yourselves. Fuck this, I’m staying home.
ATTENTION! SAFE SPACE POLICY
We strive to create parties where people of all identities, ages and religions are welcome, this means:
NO RACISM - NO SEXISM - NO HOMOPHOBIA - NO TRANSPHOBIA - NO ABLEISM - NO AGEISM - NO LOOKISM - And please don't assume PRONOUNS.
If you see or experience any harassment and/or unwanted attention, please DO NOT hesitate to contact any of our staff, who will confront and educate, and if needed, eject offending individuals.
- wtf is "lookism"?Akagiyama
- This-ism, that-ism, bagism, shagism, madism, dragism...zardoz
- wow, "[staff] will confront and educate, and if needed, eject offending individuals.", this is English language in your face.SimonFFM
- The need for racism, sexism, etc, outweighs the supply.Chimp
- Forcing human brains to un-evolve 1000's of years of ingrained distrust of 'other'. Good luck with that.shapesalad

- Dance party. The music lineup makes me want to go. This exhausting shit makes me wanna stay (home).jagara

I have my laptop next to my desktop here as I work. Sometimes I get distracted on my desktop and see something I want to watch, but I prefer to do so on my laptop. So, instead of any kind of smart or integrated solution - heck, not even just signing into a Firefox account - I copy and paste the link into an ever-growing draft email (never to be sent to myself) on my web-based account and then save it, refresh the draft on my laptop and click on the the link to open there.
- I do thiscannonball1978
- This is what we need AR/Spatial Sensing for - I want to point at one screen, say 'copy', point at another computer and say 'paste' and have it load.Nairn
- Actually, if the tech is there to read my finger, i could just point and do a wee circle or something, then Harry Potter Shazam! the fucker onto the other puterNairn
- Your desktop is your work pc? I sometimes use google remote desktop to login onto my laptop at home (I leave it on) to view whatever websites I wantdrgs
- In chrome you can share tabs between devices, or at least it works between desktop and mobile: https://i.imgur.com/…drgs
- i. don't. do. chrome.
am. old. and. suspicious.Nairn - I know the feeling, old mandrgs
- https://www.logitech…dmay
- You can copy+paste cross-devices on Mac https://support.appl…nb
- Copy paste on Apple devices works 70%-ish of the time. Pasting into Notes app is the surest way to distribute across your devices.raf
- I send the actual email. This would be an upgrade. I’m 51.mort_
- does anyone has issues with the content copy-pasta from chrome to firefox and back? nothing works except plaintext
*oh and i'm using an url with a simple formsted - for the same reasons :)sted
- does firefox have this feature if you sign in? work between 3 macs, ipad and phone use this feature in chrome dailykingsteven
- it has shared bookmarks, which I assume would update in real time? if so, I'd just have a dump folder in there. Not like my bookmarks aren't already a dump...Nairn
