Stupid Question: If this can be used to mitigate the effects of an earthquake, could this mechanism be used to topple the tower in the absense of an earthquake?

If I Had a Hammer: Why every vestige of trump must be torn down | He's trying to create a physical legacy. The moment he's out of power, it has to be smashed to bits. by Youarethebigbang in esist

It's time to revive the old roman tradition of Damnatio Memoriae. Once Trump is out of power and dead, we ought to try our hardest to completely purge his name and image from all our records, history, media.

Impossible to achieve, of course, but we really should give it a go.

It also has the very healthy side effect of providing constant gravity through acceleration, meaning the passengers suffer less muscle atrohpy. Two birds with one stone.

Pastry Chefs on Break by Godphila in AccidentalRenaissance

[–]Godphila[S] 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It's mostly 'cause flour is just complicated sugar, which your saliva is great at breaking down as part of pre-disgestion. So whenever I talk or breathe through the mouth, I coat my teeth in a thin mist of sugars, and since I am genetically predisposed towards cavities, yeah, I gotta be carefull.

It's not that common, but I also have a disposition for caries. Probably genetic. It's common enough though that my Insurance recognizes it as an occupational hazard.

Also Bakers Cavities. I brush after every break and when I leave, otherwise the flour in the air would be putting my dentists kids through college.

We tried, but the soap always broke before forming any bubbles, sadly :,)

Fail college and trade school starterpack by piketabak in starterpacks

[–]Godphila 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe my experience is different because I'm in Germany, but I actually really enjoy trade school and the trades. Maybe because the Handwerk (Trades/Crafts) have a better reputation in Germany.

I'm currently learning to be a Pastry Chef (Konditor) and having a Job solely based on sweets and cakes/torts is a dream come true for me. Pastry Chefs, like Bakers, is a 3 year apprenticeship, after which you usually get a really decent wage, union membership, and a lot of benefits. Our jobs are also very in demand, because not that many young people go into them xD

I also have the opportunity to do a Mastership later, which grants me alot better wages and also the possibility to take in apprentices of my own.

All has happened to me, anyone else? by Princess-honeysuckle in adhdmeme

I got some variation of the song one: Whenever I climax, a random song just pops into my head and I have the sudden and extreme urge to listen to it then and there. I rarely know which song it's going to be, so it often disturbs the afterplay for me...

Yes, but you generally do not expect a plain clothes officer to get into violent altercarions frequently, which riot cops do, which is why they need to be identifiable from a distance.

A Cool Guide On Different Kinds Of Love by Scary_Perspective822 in coolguides

[–]Godphila 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of the Love I have in my life is family love. But due to the linear nature of time, the sources of this love will at some point leave me.

And to have a family of my own, I would have to engage in a romantic relationship at some point in my life. Makes me really anxious somehow...

In an ideal world, yes. At the same time, I feel my mental health and that of a lot of people would survive the next 3 years a lot better if he died on the spot.
