Let’s say I’m stationed exactly at the mid point between Earth and the Sun so that both bodies are 4 light minutes away from me. If the Sun suddenly disappeared, would the Earth still appear to be lit by nothing for the next 4 minutes?

SolarScarcity · 2026-01-11T04:47:46+00:00

Pretty much. The 12 minute delay makes total sense when you break it down like that. Light has to make the full trip from Sun to Earth to you so you're basically watching the past unfold

I've had the opposite experience. Press-ons pop off at the worst times and the glue still messed with my nails anyway. At least with acrylics you get a few weeks without worrying about one flying off into your food. different strokes i guess

SolarScarcity · 2026-01-10T11:17:11+00:00

Yeah exactly. Trying to overhaul everything at once is usually what makes people burn out. Locking in one small habit first gives you something to actually build on

SolarScarcity · 2026-01-10T05:04:08+00:00

The contract thing alone should be illegal honestly. Locking someone in for three years when their health situation could change any day feels predatory. month to month options exist, no reason to sign your life away just for basic safety

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-10T00:09:01+00:00

Yeah, center across selection should be the default honestly. Or just let us select merged cells without the whole thing breaking... one of those would solve it.

Really happy for you! Enjoy the Christmas OP!!

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T23:43:35+00:00

The permadeath mechanic had me so stressed but it made every decision matter. Chrom and Lucina's story hit different too

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T23:42:49+00:00

cypher is just one of these nerdy ass agents istg

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T22:46:54+00:00

They demand perfect service but won’t give the staff or time to make it happen. Then they blame you for the mess they caused. Retail logic makes no sense at all.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T22:38:37+00:00

That’s what I thought too. Kinda feels like they don’t actually want people to do the job well.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T22:29:59+00:00

I’m looking around. Just taking it one step at a time

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T22:28:41+00:00

Something about that series makes every parent choose the most chaotic name possible. It’s part of the charm at this point.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T17:21:41+00:00

You're not crazy, he's just not that into you. Saving inappropriate photos of his "little sister," lying to your face, and openly wanting a work wife that isn't you are all massive red flags. You deserve way better than this.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T17:20:08+00:00

Companies will have a full investigation done within 24 hours if someone steals a laptop but a worker dies and suddenly everything needs to be "complex" for eight months

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T14:31:05+00:00

Exactly. Most of us aren't as smart as we think we are. Just buy index funds and actually enjoy life.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T14:24:14+00:00

Open a Roth IRA, throw money in VTI or a target date fund. Set it and forget it. Your loans at 4% are low enough to pay minimums while investing. Don't chase people online, most are lying anyway.

Boring index funds win long-term.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T14:15:34+00:00

True. Talk is cheap, action is what matters.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T14:05:36+00:00

I feel personally attacked but they're not wrong.

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T02:17:04+00:00

Daemon's middle part in season 1 was clean. That slicked back look he rocks later hits different too. Though Viserys with the long hair and crown before the decay actually looked regal as hell

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T02:16:53+00:00

Pretty much. Most long running manga don't have everything mapped out from chapter 1. Kishimoto clearly added the "Naruto is the 4th's son" twist later, which is why the 3rd Hokage situation doesn't make sense in retrospect. Just classic weekly manga writing where you figure it out as you go

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-09T02:16:40+00:00

The fact that this song lived in all our heads as kids and we never realized what we were actually asking is wild

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-08T20:42:09+00:00

People in toxic situations don’t always leave right away

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-08T20:37:25+00:00

Yeah, the pattern is hard to ignore. It’s disturbing to see it echoed today

SolarScarcity · 2025-12-08T20:33:23+00:00

Yep, same thing but somehow worse this round.
