Graphics can still get better. If the human eyes were considered cameras, they would have around 576 megapixels. As long as we can process that amount of data, graphics can still get better.

So apparently the whole earth's debt is around 100 trillion dollars.
Well then who in literally the whole universe does Earth owe those monies to? Jupiter?! |
^ that made me laugh harder than it should. That's a lot of money that we all owe one another. Holy smokes.
|
It also means that some countries will be in debt, but also have other countries in debt to them and I really can't get my head around that idea lol

The government prints out some fancy bonds with presidents and eagles ♥♥♥♥ on them, and gives them to the Federal Reserve in exchange for a loan at interest. Well, in order to pay off that initial loan, the government has to borrow additional money to pay that off, and issues more worthless bonds for more worthless money. As you can tell, it infinitely perpetuates itself. Keep in mind that the Federal Reserve is a private corporation and is just about as federal as FedEx. The value of newly printed money is simply borrowed from the existing money in circulation. Remember reading about the days when you could get two candy bars for a penny? That was when the dollar was accurately matched to it's golden counterpart. If inflation continues we're going to be in a financial idiocracy, where riding a ride on an amusement park costs 30 billion dollars because people are stupid and don't argue with the meaningless inflation. |
No posts since 1:30? I'd better do something about that!
Yeah, I learned stuff about the Federal Reserve and inflation in one of my classes, so I can only hope something is done there. So it's nice that DST has come and it's not so unbelievably dark out so early. Those times are just really saddening. |
It's getting warm here in Colorado. Enough to where I went to Wal-Mart shirtless in flip flops and basketball shorts at 7 at night. :3
As far as the things that go on... the gold standard, printing money out of nothing, being enslaved to the system. Keep one thing in mind. You can't fight the man. If you passively challenge his notions you stand a chance of just being marginalized from society, and if you aggressively engage him you can guarantee a neutralization for yourself. At this point the only thing anyone stands a chance of doing is quietly running away from the corporatotheoidioplutocracy that is America… to vanish without a trace is your only hope. Pretend to be a sheeple long enough to get the hell out of there. |

I hate the time change, especially on the night of. You lose an hour of sleep during the spring time change, and the sun rises late as well. |
At least it seems like the days are longer! Even during today, my body clock felt weird because while I thought it was 6, it's actually 7 @[email protected] The loss of sleep is my reason for hating the time change every year >>;;
|
Yeah, I did set my clock ahead an hour in advance before I even went to sleep last night, but I certainly was caught off-guard when I woke up near 9 AM instead of 8. V_V
Also, that reminds me that I totally forgot to pack shorts upon returning to my college dorm. D: Ah well, my bags were pretty full anyway. |
The amount of daylight would be the same even if we didn't change time.. it's just that the sun would rise and set an hour earlier than usual and nothing more.
I dislike summertime sunsets though. 8:30pm is just too damn late if you ask me. |

However, studies about this are contradictory. Some say energy is saved and others say it doesn't. The intention is good, nonetheless. |
Eh. A lot goes into an electric bill other than lighting, but I get what yours saying. Though it depends on the household. My mom keeps the lights on all the time at her place. It's annoying to sit in a brightly lit room as the sun pours into the room

So, the original purpose was that. |
So, after getting a bunch of crap for my birthday it all kind of piled up in my room, which I had to clean. I felt like Sherlock Holmes trying to figure out what to keep and what to chuck among food, reference papers, logs, journals, binders, shelves, clothes, cameras, money boxes, and gunpowder. I apparently got a cartridge of it from someone, but I don't own a gun. :/
After getting my room to a respectable state, I sat down, opened my sketchbook, and unleashed all of my perplexing emotions about the one I love into a map littered with words, and an indescribable symbol of each of us in the upper-middle portion of the page (I'm on the right). Spoiler:
Since I'm bi, I'll leave it up to you guys to guess whether it's a boy or girl. :P |
You seem to have great writing Alex, so yeah totally mixed here.
I'm kinda surprised at how my handwriting turned out because I thought I'd be a crappy handwriter but maybe I guess it's due to being autistic it looked better than I thought. It's weird given I'm more likely touching a computer keyboard rather than holding a pen these days. |
Lately my handwriting is pretty good nowadays, much better compared to last year. I remember when I was first taught how to write by my mom, the texts were looking like this, at some point. Later I find out that I'm not fond of writing like this lol
|
My handwriting is horrible. Even my boyfriend's is better. I don't know how it happened ;;
|
I don't know what I would say about my handwriting... it's legible, but sometimes I think I write like crap. I'm one of those people that has a handwriting where it's a combination of print and cursive.
|
Whether it's printing or handwriting, my writing is always tiny and relatively squished together yet people tell me it's nice. It's not. I've been told once, by my chemistry teacher, to re-print my test because apparently it was too small. I get it, my writing's small, but teachers have never had an issue with it until she came along >>;;
|
I change my handwriting every day unintentionally. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's awful.
