Are teenagers animals we don’t understand to be studied?

Also are they a monolith?

What is this garbage?

‘brain rot’ is conceptualised as a collection of related practices that (1) are childish or unserious, (2) provide no cognitive or developmental benefit, and (3) are deliberately non-productive. In this way, it can be understood as a decompression-driven genre of participation whereby young people actively resist the pressures of productivity and self-optimisation.

This paper is brain rot.

Hoopla also has comics and uses a guided view type of reader.

Reminds me when I saw “Gluten free” on plain raw bacon packages.

The incel, I mean male:

“I still got inside her, bro.”

Wasn’t hexbear one of those shitty servers I blocked? Isn’t it full of assholes?

Ugh, forgot I had to move off lemm.ee or whatever I originally signed up to recently and lost everything.

Useless red arrow

You let me know when the vast majority of workplaces have even HEARD of this, much less adopted/allowed it.

A PR for every tiny commit. You got it.

I learned how to do a fucking LOT of statistical shit in my degree. I also learned to get REALLY good at all kinds of shit in Excel.

Guess which helped my career on an actual practical way the most? Guess which made people seek me out at work for help with things?

Sometimes Excel is what’s available. Sometimes it’s just faster to do it that way rather than code up some ridiculously overdone solution in some programming language. Having both skills is best, but don’t shit on opening an excel and just fucking getting it done, whatever it is.

If used right, it can also be a great equalizer with those less technically skilled in your workplace. You can quickly format and tune things and even layer a little bit of vba to make their lives easier without having to get into the complexity of an entire bespoke coded solution.

Also, a reminder for those in the back. For most of us, we aren’t in college to learn a specific skill so much as we are there to learn how to be taught. To prove we are capable of taking instructions and producing results as requested.

If you never understand this, then you’ll never understand later why you fail to land a high quality job.

So apparently if you aren’t a fucking scientist, then dick pics are okay to send to you.

The “type” of people shouldn’t fucking matter.

Strawberry is super confusing with playlists. Out of caution, I have learned to save Playlists multiple times to a file and try to close them all before opening/playing new stuff.

Too many times I’ve experienced selecting something new to play not only replace the currently playing, but replaces the Playlist, and it seems to overwrite it immediately.

Jurassic Sith

California’s general mishandling of nature and natural resources is a great example of what I’m talking about. We don’t have a fucking clue, yet we think we know better, and no lessons get learned despite how clearly wrong our solutions are. Like the wildfires and water “management.”

To be clear, most other states are also run by morons making idiotic natural resource decisions. California’s just a good example since you brought it up.

No! How dare! My unique lived experience is unique to only me and my arbitrary group! You can’t be the same!

What next? You gonna tell me the “wait 5 minutes” joke about weather basically applies everywhere?

Then we go and define things as “invasive” as if the world hasn’t been ever-changing for billions of years. As if we know better and need an environment to remain exactly as we found it, forever. As if nature won’t just fucking figure it out.

What will you make it with?

The eye grabbing lights and glass covers are fucking idiotic. My best builds are black towers, great airflow, minimal lights, and barely any noise. I’m focused on the game, not the machine.

The thing needs to be forgotten. It’s not the center of attention. The monitor is.
