I’ve had that experience with the regular hue white/smart bulbs, but the white ambiance seem to dim as much as my color bulbs.

I have to admit, aside from paying for them, I do like my hue lights.

Fortunately, the white ambiance are my favorite and they’re about 25 each. In this way, I’m saving a ton of money…

I just want to say that I think this is the dash from my old car a Toyota Yaris.

I miss you ole’ buddy. I’m sorry you got rear ended and totaled. You were a great car.

Three times, you always tell me three times.

Fistfuls. Like wiping with a baseball. That’s obviously the intended purpose of cheap toilet paper.

And now I’m irritated by this all over again.

Critical support

I’ll take “good ideas” for 1000.

Is this an actress, or am I missing a reference?

A comforting/not comforting thought

I sort of believe that the vast majority of whoever from wherever would happily get along, but we still have wars.

It’s a not uncommon theme in anime: some large imperialist/war nation or one associated with fire or occupying Japan.

It’s also worth noting that Japan had a history of imperialism and occupied a significant portion of the world around them not too long ago.

Japan has a pretty similar world view to us. I don’t know a lot about Japanese culture, but I think a lot of its similarities contribute to anime’s popularity in the US. We both have pretty rigid class structures, appreciate violence and capitalism and are enamored with technology.

I know that Avatar is American, perhaps I just wanted to air out a pet theory, however I think it’s good for us to explore some of these assumptions with art and stories.

I think most of us aren’t the baddies though.

Maybe you’d like to see some Andrew Tate shorts?

I’d be delighted if we go through all the fret and worry about AI deleting humanity only to find out that AI is actually super lazy.

I am now acutely aware of my posture.

As @Nutteman has spoken, so let it be

I wonder if years of fleeing the front page to niche subs conditioned us all to try and make niche subs here when we should just be shooting the breeze right here on front street.

It feels so alien to actually put a run on sentence idea out and not parrot a meme.

That said I made some shit posts on one of the nichest of niche communities.
