Eh i only read the first book, and this was back in the 90s i would have been mid teens (too old perhaps)but I found it very derivative and not in a great way, I guess having read the worst witch series as a much younger child and having read Pratchett (GNU) for several years at this point, i wasn't the target audience i guess.

I dunno, just felt like when father Christmas showed up in the lion the witch and the wardrobe, but for the whole book.

The average wage in the US is what $60K? You work for what 50 years? So Lifetime earnings are like $3 million or there about. Thats nearly 20 lifetimes of earnings.

A lot of being neurodivergent and dealing with life is managing your own brain. Have to get a 5AM train thats a 20 minute walk away in the sleeping rain, don't keep coffee or milk in the house. Only way to get the caffiene fix is that pokey little coffee shack. Guess we're walking...

And thats why sometimes the best thing is to tell them to kneel down and think of rabbits and alfalfa.

Im sure they all think they doing the right thing, or don't realise how much pain they and suffering they inflict.

I ran out of pity for the willfully stupid a long time ago. The unwilling, they deserve care. But neither can be given positions of responsibility.

Eh, its all a mess once you try bringing ethnicity into it and putting people in neat little boxes. I've got mate a whose parents immigrated to britain during the Windrush, they are black, their daughter is black, if she immigrated to the US is she African American? Euro American? british American? Caribbean American? Mess.

I suspect If he tasked marines properly, he'd use them to take khargh island (still dumb as the Iranians can sandblast the place with missles).

This, I do not rate AI, as most things fo not have sanitized inputs, so shit happens, but the same is true of people. So many co workers just won't make it to the end of a sentence, or even the end if a word without guessing.

So basically if your job doesn't have exacting tolerances AI, even and shitty and bad as it is, can probably do it, just because the bar us so low.

You're posting what amounts to a dick measuring contest. All our forebears did their part, and if anyone of them hadn't been present, t woyld be to all our detriment and, those that where would have had made the landing without them would face a much tougher a fight.

Nah, I reached the conclusion neurotypicals just aren't capable of it. The older I get the more I think neurotypicals aren't capable of a lot of things

The problem comes with second generation out crosses. If a seahorsegirl crosses with centaur boy, nobody carries the offspring

Jail time, dishonourable discharge which means loss of pension, and VA access, health care, and any higher education.

Sure they theoretically can refuse illegal orders, but in reality thats just a means to throw enlisted men under the bus, and absolve the brass; sure the captain told you to shoot the children, but its on YOU corporal to go "no, i think children aren't valid targets".

I dunno. Like I don't want people to suffer, but people who have all their needs met and don't have to worry about money seem to be assholes.

Loud mower? Hearing protection?

Jokes aside I don't pretend there's a logic to gettinng compliments, I have long hair but I look like Steven segal crossed with Penn Gillette, the number of women who'll just strike up conversation with "hey, I like your hair, how long have you been growing it/ what conditioner/can i touch it?" Makes no sense to me, dad bod I guess,
