When I was a kid, William Daniels was famous for being the voice of KITT on Knight Rider.

I also like that Beth Calavicci appears multiple times on the show, played by the same actress as in the original series. And that they also tied into the original series by putting Magic at the head of the team.

I've heard this on as
"what's the difference between a garbanzo bean and a chick pea?"*
"I've never had a garbanzo bean on my face."
*-bonus points because a garbanzo bean and a chickpea are literally the same thing.

I once heard a guy I know respond to be asked how tall he was with "5 foot 12." This was also the guy who, when asked how long he thought a task would take, said: "I don't know, twenty minutes, maybe fifteen at most."

Reply to comment by CurseMeKilt in Speeding up rock weathering can help decarbonise the atmosphere by CurseMeKilt
You're right, but the problem is that there is virtually nothing I can do that will make a difference when industrial processes and the steadfast reliance on fossil fuels will counteract any positive changes I make thousands of times over. And I am the only person I am in charge of.

At least where I live, there isn't even a consensus that anything needs to be done at all. So it doesn't even matter how what my ideas are, because they won't get acted on either.
A reasonable debate would be "What should we do about climate change?" but instead, because of one political party, we're still stuck having a debate on whether climate change is even happening.

I'm 50/50 on whether this is actually uplifting.
Yeah it's good that we found something we can do that might help.
But it's still disappointing that we'll go this far afield to find something that MIGHT help while firmly refusing (as a society) to make the really obvious changes that would definitely help.

Is there another show called Scream Queens beside the one I'm thinking of? Because "drama" is 100% the wrong word for this show.

Yeah this is pretty much what I was going to say. Learning additional information doesn't mean anything makes sense. It actually just makes it more existentially horrifying.

Reply to Popularization of Optimism by Electron_genius
The only problem I have with this is that if we did manage to tweak algorithms to skew positive instead of negative, then everything would be flooded with cheap low-effort positive stuff instead of cheap low-effort negative content.
For sure it would be an improvement is the constant flood of prattle had a more positive tone, but I don't know how much it would help, especially with what passes for "positive" or "wholesome" or "heartwarming" anymore. It would just be variations on, " School kids raised $50,000 to save 10 orphans from the orphan-crushing machine" all the time.

Reply to comment by Calm_Confection8030 in I’m considering trying out “The Old Republic” but don’t really have any experience with games like this. Any advice before starting? Should I even try it? by Trevor-On-Reddit
Yeah, this. You can 100% play this game as if it was a series of single-player RPGs if you don't want to engage with the online community.
There will be times and places where other players are obviously around, but you don't need multiple people to play together. You can level up all on your own, and these days you can keep up with the story just playing the story missions and not bothering with any of the side quest stuff.

I don't think the purpose of the news was ever to provide solutions.

No, the cordyceps fungus that takes over insects is from real life.
The mutated version that can survive in humans is from Last of Us
