I’ve heard the maxim that money doesn’t change who you are, but it amplifies. I think that tends to be true. However, the people you are exposed to in light of that money I think definitely can change who you are.
So yes, money can lead to corruption, but generally it’s in an indirect way.

Would you trust your government to fairly and equitably decide who gets such treatments?
The scientific, societal, and economic aspects of eugenics are inextricable.
Can you elaborate on “done correctly”?
A strong desire to always learn and improve. I respect that there are people that know how to be and are totally content with just knowing what they know; but I personally have a hard time in intimate relationships with people that don’t take interest in learning.
*A fourth dimension can be time.
Time is a very convenient choice for a fourth dimension, but “fourth” is purely namesake. There’s no reason we couldn’t describe our world in our three familiar spatial coordinates with an additional coordinate for temperature, for example. We just don’t easily conceptualize it that way because it feels less contiguous according to how we currently frame our model of reality.
Disclaimer: my sources include internet research and far too much time to think. I’m absolutely open to discussion and new ideas in whatever form.
Edit: Temperature is kind of a bad example at face value, but good conceptually. Hopefully I’m communicating my point at least we’ll enough to be comprehended.
Or you can be like those people on TikTok that pull their kids out of school and let them “guide their own learning.”
I don’t remember what they called this cutting edge method.
I loved Severance too. I don’t usually go to film for my sci-fi cravings though.
For shows, I really like that just casual kinda mundane tone that sort of parodies reality. Home Movies is great, Bob’s Burgers (the earlier seasons were better for this, but I’m still watching through them). Family Guy has those moments every now and then, although I wouldn’t call it one of my top shows by any means.
My favorite show is probably Steven Universe. Everything about it was so artistically done; especially the soundtrack. Of the realm of kids/teens shows that were designed for the whole family, Steven Universe is one of the few that I personally think had a great and satisfying ending.
This Schmitt sounds like a great guy!
Windows, but I’m looking to get a laptop I can dual boot into Linux. The pipeline strikes again.
Nice try, feds!
Pun not intended, but welcome.
Have some dignity and go watch The Incredibles right now.
I have a pretty bad fear of spiders. If one is in my immediate vicinity, I generally get pretty spooked. Images of them freak me out too.
There’s this huge one that spun a web right outside my window. I’m leaving it alone, but I can see it every day as I’m working. It’s one of those with the big orbs for an abdomen.
I personally do YYYY.MM.DD for all of my personal filing. Sue me.
Edit: personally, of course.
Fuuuuck, why did I click that
People that say shit like this don’t listen to enough music to make such sweeping claims. Your parents may have had music tastes that you align with closer than that of your teenage years.
Not to mention that the “old music” is fairly selectively the ones that stood the test of time, while the younger generation is still experimenting and figuring things out. Expand your horizons; don’t fall victim to the bias.
Yep. Words are meant to be used. There’s usually a pretty clear difference between clear and concise communication and being a thesaurus superstar.
Also, words are fun. There are people that just genuinely like learning about words and their origins.
(Most of these are pretty normal words to use and you shouldn’t make a conscious effort to avoid them because some guy on the internet thinks you’re pretentious.)
It’s gotten to a point where I just go ahead append a warning that I have no source and am just making casual conversation.
