  • If only. Kinder Surprise toys used to be good, they needed actual instructions to put together. Sometimes they were weapons, intentionally or not. Now you get a Kinder egg and open it up to find just some guy. Not building, no exploration, no pain, just a little plastic guy. This is what’s wrong with this generation.



  • No problem.

    It’s too bad because it’s perfectly fine for instances, and I suppose apps, to cater their experience. Beehaw was open about their intentions from the beginning and as far as I know, no one gives them shit.

    The lack of clear guidelines on who or what gets banned and the near obfuscation of what was being banned made this so much more than it had to be.

    It’s totally our fault. Our forest and wildfire management is shit.

    Just one of the bullshit things we did:

    Canada has a policy where lumber companies have to plant enough trees to replace, factoring in natural death, all the trees they log. However, some species of tree are worth more money than others. So they cut down diverse forests to plant one, maybe two species: pine and spruce.

    Thing is, there are pine beetles and there are spruce beetles that kill the trees by burrowing holes through the bark. They suddenly had a whole lot more of their favorite trees so there were suddenly a whole lot more beetles. Big sections of forests died at once with the beetles then so overpopulated they spread to healthier, more diverse sections of the forest to kill the pine and spruce there, too.

    You can guess what happens to a forest full of dead wood.

    The best tip I ever learned was the twenty minute rule.

    It’s daunting to think about carrying a task to completion, but very easy to commit twenty minutes to dishes, cleaning the bathroom, gardening, drawing, whatever. You can get a lot done in an hour by working at different things twenty minutes at a time.
