05/30 - Terrific Thursday!

[Andraste]

Yes, but the chicken has died. The chicken is not okay.

 

[Kristina M Greer]

Thanks! I gave it shot but gave up after a while. I tried to open the links in new pages but when I did it would occasionally go from the current page and delete everything I had already done. I'm not confident that I'm doing it right enough to keep going back.

TY that was the other thing I was trying to remember if you click the link you lose everything cuz it opened there.. that ticked me off lol... a lot

 

[Robedom]

Thanks y'all. Got my 8 smackers!

How long did it take?

 

[mboone73]

A very, stable genius...?

Oh yes, stable like a sandcastle in the wind.

Look... Over there... There blows your rug.

 

[Merovign]

Yes, there's definitely an upside; but there's a danger there, as well.

The technology is still in it's nascency. What are we gonna do with it?

TBH, I don't trust mankind, at all.

Well, first of all, same with literally anything.

Second of all, it's going to happen. Might as well make an effort to get it right rather than throw up your hands. Given the benefits it'd be substantially easier to ban jokes or alcohol.

I trust mankind to be mankind. Both wonderful and terrible. Not always fun... but, on average, not too bad at all. I mean, seriously, stand on your spot 200 years ago and 200 years ago and now. You have to be pretty unlucky for life not to be better now.

Headed, unevenly and haltingly, to a somewhat better place.

Oh look, a @Cela spotted in the wild.

 

[C to the J]

Had this in my head all week

 

[charlie]

i'm pretty sure i didn't pass that qual but i'm so tired today i don't really care. worth trying anyways.

 

[mboone73]

Can I just have the eggs?

There’s no need to give me the one finger salute. Well, there probably is, but still...

Every since the onset of the Industrial Revolution, man has done more damage to this planet. than Mother Nature has since the advent of the Big Bang.

We’re on the brink of the 6th Mass Extinction; this time, all man-made.

If we’re not very, VERY careful, Mother Nature is gonna extract revenge on us.

The amount of people who persist in believing this isn't true has me believing that her revenge is already a foregone conclusion.

Can't have global warming if the world isn't actually a globe at all.

 

[KittyTacos]

Forgone conclusion, indeed.

So sad, that we're so stupid.

 

[Cela]

How long did it take?

1 minute after messaging. Turk ID + score + short message. It's possible they missed you due to amount of responses. Try again like Aaliyah!

I don't want this to go even further downhill, but I gotta say, if you made a pie chart of "world-changing events" from the last 4 billion years, it'd have to be a damned big chart to see the line labeled "mankind."

4 billion years is a *long* time and we've been here the last .000000001%.

you must be a flat-Earther?

 

[C to the J]

you must be a flat-Earther?

Close.

I think I remember this show.
