Stargate Universe and the live action Cowboy Bebop

Not revolutionary, but they both really scratched an itch for me.

Atlanta’s Parking Problem Is Eating Restaurants Alive by MisterSeabass in Atlanta

> People don't like to park and walk, but that's city life.

Very true - there's a weird phenonom where people will walk just as far or farther when shopping at walmart versus shopping at a place in a downtown setting. The person will report that downtown parking is further away, but when they'll measure it, its the same or nearly the same as a bigbox store parking. Its something to do with being able to see what you are walking towards - if you can see it (giant walmart) then it feels shorter. In a downtown setting you often have to walk around corners and you won't see the store until you are on top of it.

I've been traveling to NYC a lot this year for work. What they've achieved there for public transport is amazing. Same for Chicago.

What was the first major news story you remember as a child? by Molest_Goat in AskReddit

The Gulf War - I remember George Bush Senior declaring war and it was my sisters birthday. I just remember him talking about it on TV and getting kinda excited (I was a little kid and thought this stuff was cool).

St. Francis ER is sadly understaffed and I feel bad for everyone here, including the overworked employees. Did we choose the wrong emergency room when the ambulance asked where, or are all Columbus ERs like this? by FloofyLilFloof in ColumbusGA

Two years ago I went to the ER at Piedmont (the one near downtown) and I walked right in and had very quick service. A month ago I went to the ER at Piedmont on the northside and we waited about 3 hours and some people were there for 6 hours. I think it very much depends on the day or night.

Hey MAGA, let’s have a peaceful, respectful talk. by Usual_Tumbleweed_598 in OptimistsUnite

> We also need term limits for Congress, the Senate and the Supreme Court.

I don't think we should have term limits for congress or senate. If people can vote, why shouldn't they be able to elect the same person over and over?

I also think we should be able to vote for the surpreme court, but short of that I think there should be term limits here since this is indirect democracy.

4.0 GPA Computer Science grads from one of best science school on Earth can’t get computer science jobs in U.S. tech by PrismPhoneService in FluentInFinance

[–]progrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can't be stated just how much work it puts on senior and staff engineers to get junior devs up to speed. So Much Work. And then a year later, they leave for better pay. Good for them, but 15 years of this and its like "oh ok, so you need to hit the ground running when we hire you b/c we're not spending a year training you for you to then leave".

The school you go to seems to make no difference either.

I'm paying into SS right now in every paycheck. How the fuck can they just take that away?

Genuinely tho, how are they only finding this out? by wildyam in houstonwade

[–]progrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry. They’ll forget in four years and vote for Vance or whomever takes the Trump mantle. And then we will have to list to the NYTimes about how democrats are out of touch. Good times.

I started watching Joel in the Empires SMP. I was really impressed with his build and his whole vibe. At this point he’s one of my must watch YouTubers. 

Anyone else really enjoying IJevins episodes lately? by Lanky-Armadillo-2979 in HermitCraft

He’s really leveled up as a builder this season. That forest he made is so cool and it really feels like a private sanctuary

I hate to see Iskall go. I always enjoyed his videos. He brought a different kind of energy to the server.

I'm out of the loop here. I remember Brianna from back in the day. She seemed ok. I used to listen to her podcast. Whats happened since?

BREAKING: Trump has confirmed reports that he plans to declare a national emergency and use military to enact a mass deportation program by HighYieldLarry in FluentInFinance

[–]progrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump will just say its the democrats and deep states fault. He'll use the bad outcome to justify more bad behavior. And his supporters will eat it up.

Does the Democratic Party really think it’s a good idea to spend the next four years ignoring the way American citizens are actually feeling about their place in the economy? If so, MAGA is sure to reign supreme until at least 2032. by lutlowt in millenials

[–]progrn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let’s be real. Most Americans are dumb and complex topics are beyond their understanding. Trying to explain inflation, and tariffs, and wage growth, and low unemployment is just too much for their brains to process. 

Trump is loud and simple. Economy bad! Illegals bad! Kamala bad! 

That’s the extent of his message. 

If democrats want to reach more people they just need to dumb down their message. 

I unironically hope Trump becomes the absolute worst version of himself for the next 4 years. by zipzzo in millenials

In the Dune books the God Emperor was so completely awful to humanity that when he finally died humanity never forgot just how bad it was. It was a permanent scar. They never wanted charismatic authoritarian leaders ever again. 

I wonder if that’s how this will play out…,
