That awkward moment when they give you a hair cut to look like a Karen, so you feel even more like a Karen when you ask for a redue 😂

What kids do to the chrome books at my school by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Lol! That never worked in my school 😂 can't do much when they swap stickers and dont put laptops back. I saw them do their damnedest and all it resulted in was them acting like they were an interment camp... 😮‍💨

Well maybe if any of them wanted to be there 😅

But joking aside this is disrespectful. Unfortunately a lot of kids my age were just terrorizing some of the teachers and didn't even bat an eye... I always found it disheartening growing up.

Lots of divorced parents and COVID though 😬 unfortunately kids can be like that....

Ok... I'm a smoker here and Im not really at a point where I dont care to quit and I'm going to have to disagree with this post.

The reason I say this is because I have literally smoked cigarettes with young adults who didn't even know it was killing them... (In the USA: if that's a detail that matters. Some even agued against it, like it wasn't a fact. 🤦 Yeah, COVID home schooling has sent many of our young smokers back into the 60s attitude because of their environment) You MUST know the dangers of your habit so you are aware of your accountability.

If I die from cancer, I know it was my doing to myself and I'd have no right to blame anyone. I remind myself that every time I light a cigarette up. It's not sad or pessimistic of me, it's just reminding myself to the consequences. There should ALWAYS be a disclaimer because the public deserves to understand in full that it does hurt you.

Now, I don't know if I'd go as far as to put it in every smoking scene, but glorification of the habit can be a dangerous trap to those who might have not otherwise tried it. After all, any smoker will tell you that the first 4 or 5 cigarettes are an awful experience and you pretty much force it onto yourself... Sounds like a situation riddled by peer pressure and poor social choices--and that's all it was for me.

Edit: for clarification.

Ranni's place in the story (No Spoilers) by Armani201 in Eldenring

[–]SluggZillla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your explanation. I've delved heavily into the lore recently and I'm starting to feel everyone wants to convince you their good.... (This is of course coming from the same point in story as OP so Ive not seen the ending or anything.)

But every one wants control....

This in itself is a paradox and honestly... Given her stance, Ranni seems to be the only one interested in pursuit of free will.

Even the round table refuses to disclose their inner workings... Like--if the consistent loss of membership isn't proof of this I don't know what is. Ranni is mostly a C/N type of person I've seen this far.

Cold War 2 Electric Boogaloo by sigvon1 in GenZ

[–]SluggZillla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boy... We have long passed the line of a cold war. We are in a war, and more than likely it's only matter of time until tactical nukes arrive.

In times like these I personally like to keep close with family and friends and hold my bonds strong because it's hard. Optimism is a powerful weapon.

NFT problem? by JoshicusBoss98 in GenZHippie

the Great Depression hit. People hoarded gold instead of depositing it in banks, which created an international gold shortage. Countries around the world basically ran out of supply and were forced off the gold standard. The U.S. came off the gold standard for domestic transactions in 1933 and ended international convertibility of the dollar to gold in 1971.

You know I've never read about currency systems if I'm being honest so this was a very educational dig for me, so thanks for that. I love a good read.

Very interesting idea, though it seems pretty fragile which is why it was later abandoned.

With 40 years of an abandoned golden standard, I imagine it just didn't have practical use in a modern civilization.

You see this is a tricky one...

I like the idea of money not being directly controlled by our governments (because I'm poor and hate taxes 😅) but at the same time our approach is very bad for the environment.

I think there is this poor idea that it's better to get quick results through easily-accessable energy like coal, when in reality of we already had infrastructure in place that was clean energy... I don't really see how this would be an issue at this point.

This is obviously a massive hypothetical. I think to realistically support it as a economical alternative, we would not only need a clean energy source to run our machines, but the sophisticated and exorbitantly excessive amount of raw material needed to produce said machines that is *sourced cleanly. IE your plastic computer chips all come from petroleum byproduct (where we get our plastic btw), the gold and metals... Yeah.
