The thing i always think about is that qoute from Virginia Wolfe where she likens the writing to a schoolboy doing stunts for the sake of getting attention. I remember thinking that was exactly how it felt while I was reading Ulysses, it felt like a highschool creative writer mashing things together without considering whether it was actually good or not.

However im not going to sit here and pretend im an objective critic. The book is obviously famous and important for a reason. I’m interested to know how it saved your life, if you feel like sharing

You know how when you’re studying literature you’re generally supposed to assume that everything is intenional and there’s nothing just thrown in for no reason … Well when you read Joyce, it’s really really hard not to feel like he’s just doing things for the sake of being pretentious and obtuse.

Boy that would seriously mess with the narrative of this comment section if that were the case

Edit: oh no

The amount of knee jerk rage I’ve seen over paint whenever one of these incidents happens. Its paint. It comes off. Its an extremely effective strategy to get attention while causing little to no damage.

No Miss Marple huh… Shame

Haha thats actually a solid idea. I’d drink astronaut water in a heartbeat.

I think your right the honesty is refreshing but when it comes to marketing i think reclaimed water is just about the last place you want that kind of honesty

Listen imma level with you bro, if they are genuinely calling it “toilet to tap”, and you dont get why people might find that a little off-putting, then i dont think this thread has anything for you.

Oh i love Doug, alright nice dual reference dude 👍

Oh, ok. Whats the other reference too?

Oh… well then you spelled your made up parody word wrong :/

I got pretty severe tinnitus after getting in an accident last year and it’s by far one of the most frustrating things I’ve ever experienced. However, what really saddened me after i got it was learning how relatively little research is going into developing treatments despite the overwhelming amount of people who have to deal with it every day. The idea of living with this the rest of my life is extremely depressing.

I don’t exactly know whether this strat is redundant or not but I wear noise cancelling earbuds with full earmuffs overtop and it seems to do a good job. Plus i get the added benefit of being able to listen to music and hear phonecalls while on a machine.

This made so mad it makes me want to shut down small grassroots videogame tournaments held by passionate communities for games I haven’t monotized in literal decades!

I dont think its unreasonable to assume that the Russian military command genuinely believed the they were a lot stronger than they actually were when this started. Just based on what news I’ve been following, it seems like its very common for Russian officers to lie to their superiors about how strong their units are for the sake of looking good.

Ya can i getuuuuuuuuuuuuh nother live action anime remake please

Is it just me or has the term “ordered by” become a lot more common recently? Like, im aware that studios have always demanded media be made out of IPs regardless of whether there are any stories worth telling. But when did they start using language that makes it read like im in a McDonald’s drive through?

True, I guess what i was imagining was an ideal scenario where all those aspects can also be replicated. Of course, maybe thats not how the technology works i really dont know

Well im no scientist so maybe someone smarter can comment. However if it becomes possible to design every aspect of the meat artificially then it seems to me that it’s pretty much guaranteed that it will taste better. You could produce the perfect fat to meat ratio in every steak without the anitbiotics and animal stress that affect farmed animals
