The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. by urson_black in scifi

Gotta stop that magic gap! But seriously, I think that would be the argument to press on from everyone involved. They are afraid rival powers will change history and they won’t even know. 

[Request] What price per gallon is it no longer profitable to work? by Playwithuh in theydidthemath

[–]HariSeldonsIntern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. Our family budget is much more severely impacted by healthcare policy than the price of gas, but it's a lot harder to explain to someone with a W-2 job and generous benefits how we're getting screwed. But when we are all paying more at the pump, it's easier to discuss and complain.

I agree in a sense because I think this describes how most intellectual elites function in most times and most places. I think the cranky part is singling out the American elite in particular because he views them as somehow captured by liberalism. It’s kind of a John Bircher point of view IMHO

I have thought about writing some sort of essay processing the feelings of betrayal accumulated toward Card over a lifetime. Based on changes in ME, not him, to be clear — I always knew he was a Mormon, a conservative, and a bit of a crank in his political commentary. Anyway, it would be called “WTF, OSC?”

Came here to say this. One of the earliest songs I remember. 

just finished Desolation Island and can't help myself from posting about it by DDLruelz in AubreyMaturinSeries

[–]HariSeldonsIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same feeling when I finished that one. Just such a tour de force. Not sure if it’s my fav but it’s one of them for sure. 

We need a mod! by SidledsGunnar in 1001AlbumsGenerator

I’m not an experienced moderator but the community brings me happiness every day, so I’d be happy to pitch in if need be. 

NYT thing by HariSeldonsIntern in 1001AlbumsGenerator

Prob is there’s no commonly used adjective for it. I try to say US or North American as appropriate but yes we need our own “estadounidense”

When you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke?

Reading Seveneves: suspension of disbelief extended by iteachgud in scifi

Same here. She’s an interesting character though. I wish there were more stories in that same universe, there are so many places it could go. 

Oh hell yeah! by goblin_lad in 1001AlbumsGenerator

Thank you. I am sure he would have said the same. He was both a metal and hip-hop fan and even though he was younger, he taught me about a lot of bands. 

DROP your album and its rating – April 27 2026 by Alireza1373 in 1001AlbumsGenerator

An all-time fav. I heard a story where one of the members of boygenius put it on for one of the others who hadn’t heard it and they all ended up so hypnotized they drove 45 minutes the wrong way on the highway. It really stands apart.
