In-laws children have a severely limited reading ability. 12 and 13 year Olds can barely read some 4-letter words.

Their math skills are worse, sitting around 2nd grade level.

The youngest are still in the "learn to socialize with other children" phase of education, but all 8 of their kids need severe assistance in their education.

But when one of the answers to their homework is "why is math perfect? because God is perfect and God made math" then it's no surprise.

The day an automated system reduces my pay for socializing all of 3 seconds to myself is the day I begin welding steel plates to a bulldozer and go for a drive through upper mansgemt offices.

I'm a fan of the Forgotten Realms/D&D type of magic users where the long-lived races like elves see humans as reckless, bordering on insane, for how quickly they race through learning and understanding magic. An elf might take a decade to fully understand a single spell before she wants to use it regularly, a human will race through ALL her learning in 3 years.

And because humans are humans, they just might spend decades pushing a specific magic type or spell to its absolute limits, in a way that elves would never even think of because it's just outright insane.

Yeah, I'm getting really tired of people saying "well it's an illegal order so it doesn't matter" and not giving it another thought, despite everyone in power treating them as perfectly legal, and nobody doing a goddamn thing to put a stop to it.

If trump issues an executive order calling for executions of minorities, it doesn't fucking matter how legal it is if the powers that be let people do it, and let Trump stay out of prison.

We aren't to that point just yet, but I fully believe something on that level is coming, they've just got to ease into it so it just doesn't seem that much worse than the last thing that was done.

Until I see actual consequences that make a difference, my hopes are sitting around 0.

My first thought was ".... Again? They need some better contraceptives" but no, it's the same one... A shame, that would open the door for so many jokes.

That horse will haunt my night-mares. Pun not initially intended...

Luckily the issue of "cars park too long in spaces" is a solved problem.

Meters, meter monitors, timed parking in general has been around for a long time.

Tow the cars parking beyond the limit, and that becomes a non-issue. No idea what the maximum charge time is on compatible EVs but just put it a little longer than that, and nobody has a reason (beyond the normal things that affect all drivers in timed spaces) to stay there beyond the charging time.
