As far as I know, I have been blocked by no one and blocked no one.

It probably has happened on some platform or other.

“ Sleep if you dare” furniture is the worst.

Oh no! You have cat engineers!

I introduced my parents to Dropout over Thanksgiving break. We watched Crowd Control.

My mom knew who Button Gwinnett was the moment his name came up, and was appalled that no one else did.

I'm requesting that you please send her an honorary Dropout PhD in American History.

I am resisting spoilers for Wake Up Deadman but have heard great things.

I’m not sure. The cultural aspect is clear, but I do notice that many stores make it surprisingly hard to get a simple product so they can upsell, and can use the trappings of coolness/ counterculture to do it.

I ask because I was recently in a program lead by good people. Two crucial assignments came with specifications.
I carefully followed them. Then realized that a classmate who never completed a single assignment passed one, and one who blatantly ignored the instructions was rewarded for doing so.

Real question: How many students flunk out?
I don’t mean “we need to get tough on these damn kids!”
I mean, how does behavior affect results?
Are they accurately judging the situation? From their point of view what leads to either success or failure?

This is genius.

Respectfully, I do not agree. Almond M&Ms don't have the texture of peanut.

Although I'd love for them to start making hazelnut M&Ms. In fact, after all the experiments, I think they should make all kinds of nut M&Ms.

I sometimes go on an expensive chocolate kick. It’s a month of, “Oh wow. I can taste the difference in the sources” and “I wouldn’t think this could work but it really does” and then I eat a handful of peanut M&Ms and almost cry.

I don't think its only looks. The film industry has spit out supermodels like watermelon seeds.

But when we do the usual pearl clutching about surgeries and extreme diets, when people ask, "Why do they do that to themselves," the only answer is, "Because they're paying attention."

True. It is youtube ads, so we are at the bottom of the barrel. I would like to see who actually buys charcoal soap and "tactical" hoodies.

Don't get me wrong. I do not like AI. But come on. The internet was upping its Slop to Content ratio quite considerably before the AI nuke dropped.

If you google "what date does the next season of Fargo come out" and what you get is six pages that all all say, "Give me your email address, wasn't Fargo great, the first season was the best of course but a lot of people liked the second one too. Anyway, we don't know," AI looks a little better.
