Family court words

The ice addict story is unfortunate and I have heard similar issues in other areas about having to give back kids to unfit adults. That is more a failure of our mental health care system and drug habilitation programs though.

As for court bias this article seems to indicate otherwise with even more horrifying results.

Metallica did an extremely good job of making thrash metal palatable: they were just fast and aggressive enough to not be off-putting, their riff catalogue was the perfect thing for a novice guitar player to work through (learn For Whom The Bell Tolls then Trapped Under Ice then Battery etc.) and they were catchy.

They were never extreme and their attempts to push the envelope were just longer songs and acoustic sections so it was never challenging music but it was different enough from what other bands were doing.

I never understood how Anthrax got popular, they only got their poo poo together by 'Persistence of Time' and even then that album isn't amazing.

I felt the same for a long time but then my housemate made eggplant parmigiana and I was blown away by how good it was. He put a hell of a lot of effort and made everything from scratch though so it was a lot of work to make something delicious.

But when pressed could never really define a snow flake or tell me why you wouldnt be against fascism. Also was once a smart dude. I think all that conspiracy theory right wing bullshit plays into people wanting to feel like the smartest person in a room esp for people who are good at stem but shite at politics/history/caring for other people

People in STEM typically have either no politics or garbage opinions to begin with so it's very easy to push them over the threshold. Lots of libertarian / centrist-types that hate paying taxes and think people should just do an eng degree so they can get a "good job" like them.

Its been months since i quit smoking and most of the time i don't want a cigarette at all but sometimes I want one so badly, mostly when I'm having trouble waking up in the morning. Its weird the hold nicotine has on you, its like breaking up with a girl. Not like a dramatic breakup, but a sad one where you have to move away or something.

I was never a particularly heavy smoker but I still get the urge for a smoke at the weirdest times in the past few months. It's been nice to quit though, my health just feels way better in general and exercise is a bit easier.

I'm from a STEM background so metric conversions are second nature at this point but I always found it easiest to think of the prefix and associate it with the number: deci- is 1/10, centi is 1/100, milli- is 1/1000, micro- is 1/1000000 etc. From there you can basically scale up and down any metric measurement from metres to siemens. Converting into imperial is a nightmare and not worth learning because those units shouldn't exist.

The caffeine masks the feeling of being drunk, so people get a lot more drunk than they realize because they don’t feel it.

I’m convinced that it also causes people to be more likely to get violent but I have no proof.

I don't remember any if the Woodstocks or anything similar had much in the way of caffeine, it was more that they were easy to drink so you'd smash 'em down faster than your metabolism could handle. By the time you felt drunk you were probably well on your way to being way too drunk with no way to stop it.

well why not posted:

im mixed on alcohol having different effects dependant on how you drink it (an uncle of mine gets "cruel" on scotch [he's just a dickhead in general]) but the caffeine + sugar probably does have some energising factors

Caffeine absolutely has an effect and it's the reason why poo poo like Four Loko got banned in the states. It doesn't cut through the effects of being drunk quite as well as actual amphetamines but it gives you the energy to be a drunk rear end in a top hat for longer.

The Boys is so good. I liked the comic a lot as well but the show is achieving something in its own right with a unique tons and a different take on the characters. Its less mean and more modern and slick and it pays off as its own piece of media instead of a straight adaptation.

Like, Stormfront was a very minor and totally different character in the comic, instead we get this mean and sexy performance from Aya Cash who just straight up killed the whole season.

I was genuinely surprised by how well they have adapted the story and managed to excise the worst of the 90's 'edginess' (i.e. misogyny, homophobia) from the source material. The nod to Love Sausage (who was a major character for an arc or two in the comic?) got a laugh out of me.

Not sure how I feel about the reveal at the end of this season but I will see where they take it.
