When you say "we" have you charged through the walls like the Kool Aid Man?
Cuz' I was just looking up my state and county offices to possibly run for something. It's a pain in the ass, but it's important.
I'm tired of calling my House representative and getting ChatGPT-generated Republican talking points emailed back to me.
Attacks the idea, not the person. Probably will be the same result, because they probably were a fucking idiot to believe that stuff, and they are very attached to stupid ideas.
Have you tried some good alternatives to meat? Like, try seitan* crumbles in a taco. With all the spices and other toppings it's really hard to tell the difference. Also, I find it almost impossible to tell an Impossible Whopper with Cheese from a regular Whopper with Cheese, after all the glop they put on it. I know those are both bottom-of-the-barrel meat choices, but maybe branch out and try a thing or two. If you don't like it - no biggie.
I've tried casually dipping my toes into the vegetarian pool with just occasional meat substitutions. Occasionally I find something that's "No way" but more often than not, I find something that is also really tasty. It's not meat, but it's also tasty in a different way, so I don't miss meat as much. I've found vegetarian dishes I actually like. My biggest problem however is getting enough protein in my diet when I start eating mostly veggies.
[* Seitan only if you can handle gluten. Because, it's like 100% gluten! ]
The human brain processes information by chunking - bundling up information into chunks to remember it. It's like a .zip file or compression on an image. That process is a bit lossy. If you've ever tried to write a technical document or a rules-set for a game, and had a user go through the document undirected, you'll see it in action.
The more complicated, technical, or tedious the instructions are, the more likely loss or misinterpretation will occur. A friend of mine says that writing a technical document is like programming a computer that skips every 7th line.
As a person who has written many of these, I've found ways to counteract / ameliorate their problems:
the use of paragraphing important points that you want feedback on
When sending to multiple people, but wanting feedback from a specific person, I bold, underline, and color their name next to their action item, so they know it's for them
Using checklists or bullet points
explaining things through multiple avenues, like with visual images and with text simultaneously
What if you could log in with your Mastodon (or other) Fediverse account, and they would too, so you could see their user history and connections? (And they could see yours)
I've been re-watching the TV series "Leverage", but it's disappointing in not believable. It's based in an insane world where the rich and powerful can eventually lose their money and go to jail.
OK, so I have the 2009 edition of the Marvel Encyclopedia, which has 8 pages devoted to The Hulk. Apparently he had "every atom of his body exposed to gamma radiation" from a gamma-bomb he was working on. It's been revealed that Banner also has multiple personality disorder that contributes to his various Hulk forms.
I thought I remember from decades ago that his bulk and healing energy comes and goes from a transdimensional space, but I can't seem to find that in the article.
However, I really like this StackExchange answer, which posits that he is an energy-processing mutant that taps into the Power Cosmic to fuel his incredible strength. https://scifi.stackexchange.com/a/84410
I've found that Imposter Syndrome is really common. Even people that I admire that are rockstars in the industry I'm in also have Imposter Syndrome.
Maybe the weirdos are the ones without Imposter Syndrome?
