Like they can't even be listening to music or something on their phones; they literally have to stand there, straight, still, doing nothing for like how many hours their shift is. That must get super tiring, both physically and mentally.

I generally don't leave my bedroom windows open when I'm sleeping just due to noise but I'll leave others open if the temperature and humidity are right for it
I do the exact same. I fortunately live in an extremely quiet and safe neighborhood, so I open up my first floor backyard windows (backyard is fenced in), and open up my skylights and my 2nd floor windows and let the house cool down overnight.

By the morning, its like low 60s. I close all windows. When outside reaches like high 80s, inside reach mid 70s and I rarely have the central AC on.

Its such a great way to save money.

I mean it does seem like they live a pretty shitty life.

It's actually interesting. Complete and utter wealth and fame but in exchange you have no privacy and are expected to "perform" for the rest of your country every single day of your life.
It feels manufactured. Making things look hard for the sake of drama and interesting TV.

South Carolina

Virginia
West Virginia

Blatant power grabs that benefitted who in the end?
Dakotas split because of a dispute in the capitol location; Virginia split because of disagreement with slavery. No idea about Carolinas.

The argument Ive seen used is that the Founding Fathers set up a district specifically to not be a part of the US to preventsomething. Fuck knows tbh its all bullshit.

It would be a guaranteed 2 more dem senate seats so thats why it wont happen.
Nah that argument makes sense since I believe PA tried to take over Congress because they didnt pay PA or something like that. The federal government didnt want to be at the mercy of a state government so it made its own area.

The fix is to redraw these borders to just include critical parts of DC, and make the remainder a state or integrate the remainder into surrounding states.

Topic"Why are x people so sweaty all the time?"
IdiotMachine

My thoughts:
I don't think it's racist, since it's literally based on the color of the skin. Darker colors literally absorb more heat, so it gets hotter; it's expected that darker people will get hotter faster in the sun, which will make them sweatier. I do think it's pretty ignorant to just wildly ask that, especially at work of all places.

For going to HR, I think that's way over the top. Just w/e and ignore it; learn what kind of person she is, and move on.

Is that a racist question?


A coworker said that (replace "x" with a certain type of people), and everyone claimed she was racist. This one other girl in the convo threatened to go to HR.

So, is this question racist (poll question)? Does it warrant an HR complaint (for discussion)?

The building wasn't owned by a landlord, the owner of each unit was an partial owner of the building since it is a condo. Some people may have rented from unit owners though.

There are two types of VR porn; one is just 180deg, so you can move your head and stuff, but the other is actually 3D (so two cameras recording and each eye gets independent footage). The 3D VR one looks freaking real, with 8k footage (two 4K cameras).

Almost every single fucking assholes do this. You come up behind them, then get on the left lane to pass them, but then they speed up, making you speed up even more. After you pass them, you get back on the right lane, and they slow the fuck down again.
