"The Midwest"
  • It was really strange. Thankfully things were slightly better by the 90s when the central division was added, but that still had weird groupings like Houston/Pittsburgh (or Miami/Montreal).

  • Have you ever cried over a celebrity or complete strangers death, why?
  • Fred Rogers (of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood). For my generation, he helped to shape our views on kindness and compassion for humankind. He fought for public access funding in the United States. He helped break color barriers on television. He helped us enjoy jazz.

    I have not encountered another media personality who was so genuinely invested in making sure that kids had the tools they needed to deal with the emotional parts of existence. I'm tearing up again thinking about how much he did for us.

  • color pencil recommendations?
  • While I do love prismacolor (mentioned in the other reply), if you're looking to save a little bit of money, I enjoy Derwent Coloursoft. They are wax based, so they do have limits on layering; however they go down easy and blend well up until that point.

    (To avoid amazon, I'd order from dick blick or another art supply store)

  • Video game workers in North America now have an industry-wide union
  • If you're in a union already, that is not something that can generally be asked about by management, both at hiring or during your employment. Being in a union is not the same as being in a unionized workplace.

    When employees of a store/factory/etc decide to unionize, there's a point at which a specific larger union can be chosen to represent them (AFL-CIO, IBEW, Teamsters, etc). If successful, this is what allows for collective bargaining led by a union representative.

  • Man who lost $780 million in Bitcoin in a landfill now wants to buy the entire dump before city closes the site
  • It is sad that this guy just can't let go.

    Honestly though, if he can preemptively put sufficient funds into escrow dedicated to managing all aspects of the site and engineering plans for digging with minimal perturbation of each waste cell, then let him have it*.

    (* Escrow amount should be approximately $780m)

  • I think they're just hoarding the meat my brothers!
  • The exception of allowing more meat (or specifically allowing any number of meals with meat) for the sick was a part of the rule of Benedict. Also predating the Templar there was already an exception for twice baked meat not counting as meat, so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

  • Goths

    I just wanted to bring back some of the history shitposting that CMFHT used to do on twitter...

    A new alternative to the "bro explaining" meme

    Perhaps it's just me, but these have the exact same energy.

    The second image details are as follows.

    Title: Go To Your Room Little Brother!

    Description: Two great horned owlets interact with one another in Tierra Verde, west- central Florida.
