  • Are you a law-abiding citizen?

  • What if they're serving an eviction notice and it's no longer your home?

  • Honestly can't tell if you're trolling with this.

    Any job that would give you an advantage when applying for a new job (ie. Prior experience) is part of a career. For more formal careers like Medicine and Law they are an absolute necessity and often formally defined, for careers like Bartender, the requirements are more fluid, but experience (and particularly unbroken experience) is very important when applying for jobs.

  • There's a difference between Women harming their careers by having children, and not being able to a career other than SAHM because you aren't able to get a career job in the first place. Both are sexist, and while it would work to increase the birth rate to remove women's rights, it is morally reprehensible, and yes looks sternly at the US, we see what you are doing!

  • If blasted into their face by an explosive charge I imagine it will also leave them with horrific PTSD as well!

  • I'm using the other comments to hypothesise but I think they are using Benedryl (an anti-hystemine/anti-allergy medication) and putting it inside a shotgun cartridge. The implication being that they will shoot people breaking into their house with a powerful over-the-counter narcotic.

  • Jennifer Lawrence was quoted implying that The Hunger Games was the first female-led action movie ... today I want to introduce you to one of my favorite exceptions: The Long Kiss Goodnight.

  • So I realise it's a typo, but I'm also chuckling at the idea of a "non-dei" (heavily /s) version of Aeon Flux following the life and adventures of Aron Flux.

  • [StreetComplete] Is this stop lit?

    Jump

  • I'm not particularly aware of the rules of the community but I would assume the intention is to indicate if the bus stop is "lit safely" for those who feel more vulnerable at night, such as women, the very young, and the very old. So I would perhaps interpret it that way - does it feel "safe" for things such as if a paving stone is loose, would you see it, or could an attacker get too close before you saw them.

  • Thank you that's good to know. I wasn't aware of any positive affiliation with it. I'll bear it in mind moving forward :)

  • Ah that's interesting, I had thought of it more negatively. It's not a common word where I am, so my knowledge has been gleaned from American media, mostly.

  • Would you mind explaining how chutzpah and hubris differ please? I'm not sure I get it.

  • I often felt from context it was closer to "hubris", as "cajones" might just mean brave.

  • What's a weird saying?

    Jump

  • The french used to use an explosive device called a "petard" (old french for a fart), that was used to breach doors. However these would sometimes blow back and kill the user rather than breach the door. This was the original intention for the Shakespearian phrase. One was Hoisted (old verb* not used anymore but essentially blown off their feet) by their own Petard (or door breaching bomb).

    More information is here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoist_with_his_own_petard

    *Unrelated to hoist as in to lift, despite similarities

  • How to get gud at / learn

    Jump

  • Yes agree with this and categorise each into one set of broader goals, I suggest one is Programming, one could be Gaming etc. Then allocate time to each larger goal and order your sub "tickets" in there so you focus on one thing in a section at a time. For example, don't learn Python and Rust at the same time, focus on one or the other (I'd probably suggest Python first as Rust has a very steep learning curve), but you can easily spend some time a week learning Python and some time learning Factorio, without the two things working against each other.

    Edit: for Programming stuff the site Roadmap.sh (https://roadmap.sh/) is useful for giving you an opinionated task list. It's not for everyone, but if you just want to know where to start you could go a lot further wrong than that.

  • It might help in the future for trigger warnings as it's used in those quite often, at least. Every cloud...
