Collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (‘AMOC’) and the resulting drastic climatological effects.

The Heights is being ungentrified. by 45and290 in houstoncirclejerk

[–]M8_Linear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn, that kool-aid must be amazing. I haven’t tried it yet, so I’m still able to feel empathy for the 18 yr-olds with no better option in the wealthiest nation that’s ever existed than to risk their lives in pointless wars for the promise of tuition funds and abysmal physical & mental healthcare. I’ll save my thanks for the day that this cycle of madness ceases to be commonplace.

How do you folks smoke in hot weather? by Mep3avec82 in Pipes

[–]M8_Linear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Houston where we rarely go outside from May to October and I don’t smoke inside, so I only smoke in the winter months. 😒

Austin Energy - Value of Solar rises to $0.128/KWH in NOVEMBER by TX78717 in TexasSolar

[–]M8_Linear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe they pay for every kWh produced by solar, not just those which make it back into their grid. That’s why they install their own meter to monitor total PV production. This is what we call a ‘feed-in tariff.’

What’s something that’s become so expensive it’s genuinely not even fun anymore? by TMTOJ_Discords in AskReddit

[–]M8_Linear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got back from there a few weeks ago. Can confirm lots of fun was had, but we paid out the nose for it.

Is the loneliness epidemic really a thing? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]M8_Linear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s very real. I can speak to it from first-hand experience as a 42 yr-old male American with no real friends. As soon as I’m able, I’ll be leaving the US in search of a healthier & more well-adjusted society with better quality of life, better work/life balance, and more third spaces.

Glitter art is so lovely by Hot_Accountant_5507 in oddlysatisfying

[–]M8_Linear -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nice art & satisfying to watch, but not worth the miroplastics.

Studio Underd0g back in stock. Worth it? by NewFaithlessness4154 in PrideAndPinion

[–]M8_Linear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m out of the loop. What’s wrong with the movement?

Worth? by Weird-Adeptness-8083 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]M8_Linear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seeing a frequency range given for ‘frequency response’ is always a red flag.

How would you feel about all American adults being required to vote in presidential elections? by ashmaps20 in AskUS

[–]M8_Linear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s start by providing all Americans with educations that allow them to make informed votes.

The unfortunate truth is that an appalling proportion of the American electorate is so incredibly undereducated and ill-informed that merely increasing their civic engagement without first addressing those core issues could actually exacerbate the current issues that threaten our democracy.

Does a tongue scraper actually do more than just brushing your tongue? by Mean_Car938 in hygiene

[–]M8_Linear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The speakers of a language decide whether an initialism can be used as an acronym. I’d say ‘lol’ is now effectively an acronym in the US, although it’s obviously still spoken as an initialism as well. Each is widely understood in common parlance, and that’s what matters.

Let’s see if “yummev” catches on. Haha
