And on top of which, these are definitely noisy nuisances, and as a result people are gonna fuck with them, and it’s inevitable that eventually it’s gonna hurt someone, which’ll cause a huge backlash and expensive lawsuits, etc etc etc.

The only situation i can see these being even potentially viable is in very rural areas, where delivery routes are expensive, people have lots of open land for it to safely reach the ground, and there aren’t a lot of nearby neighbors to annoy

Organic is always more expensive, but vegan can be done dirt cheap

Yup this sounds like the right answer to me too. Typical intrusive thoughts like we all have, but with no impulse control to stop them from actually doing it.

You’re putting the cart before the horse. Tell us the specific situational problem that you’re trying to solve. Like what ultimate end result are you trying to achieve.

That way we can help you achieve what you’re actually trying to achieve

Oh i gotcha now, yeah that that’s plausible

Huh? I just looked up “fade” on urban dictionary and none of the top hits say ot means face.

Yes!

It’s amazing how very far ahead siri was at the beginning, and how extremely far behind it became. It’s a massive miss for Tim Cook’s Apple

Love it! Glad to have you here!

Ooo that’s a great one! Helping someone else makes me feel good basically 100% of the times i do it. And it doesn’t even have to be a major help, or even a moderate help, just helping someone in a minor way gives me a good feeling.

The whole topic of drugs could easily be covered in 30 minutes. The only thing people under 18 need to know is this:

1. There are a large variety of different recreational drugs, each of which make you feel a different way, and which come with their own set of different risks and benefits

2. At some point when you’re older it may be reasonable for you to try some particular drugs, but there are some drugs which are never safe for anyone at any age

3. No drugs are safe for you to do yet. Your brain is still in a developing phase, and drugs that might be safe for you to do later will be very harmful to you at this age. Even though taking a drug might make you feel good in the very short term moment, it very likely could make your growing brain become depressed as soon as you come down from the drug, and this can become intense sadness that you feel for the rest of your life.

So for now just know that drugs is a complex topic that you can learn more about later when you’re older, but for now the details don’t matter because all drugs will be harmful to you right now while your brain is still growing

IANAL but if you don’t object you still can’t ask for a mistrial unless you argue that the defense given by the lawyers was literally incompetent, and I’m far from an expert but i think that’s a pretty hard bar to reach. Especially if pre-trial they would put that lawyer on the stand and ask why they didn’t object during the testimony but only complained after the testimony, and i can’t imagine any valid argument that would be accepted by a court.

Bottom line, I’m not an expert at all, but if they purposely didn’t object so that they could ask for a mistrial, I’m pretty sure that won’t work at all

Most people don’t consciously think about these things very often at all. Generally there’s only a very occasional sudden realization that you’ve been starting at a person’s eyes for a bit too long and so look away for a moment. But really this is only a very very occasional thing. We almost never consciously think “ok where should i point my eyes now?”

Or at least that’s how it is for me. I guess I’m assuming that’s how it is for most people too.

(Not an insult) i assume you’re autistic or have some autistic traits, so maybe people in the autism forums could help too.

Generally you can look at anything and everything you want to look at, but just don’t do it for more than a few seconds in a row.

Like for example if there’s two of you at a table and you’re having a conservation then it would go something like this. look in you tablemate’s eyes for 3-5 seconds, then look at your plate for a few seconds while you’re using your utensils on your food, then look in your tablemate’s eyes for another 3-5 seconds, then look at the wall decor for a few seconds, then back at your tablemate’s eyes for a few seconds, then back on your plate to look at what you’re eating for a few seconds, then back to your tablemate’s eyes again for a few seconds. Now that i talk it out, i think it’s right for about every other look to be at your tablemate’s eyes.

Basically it’s the same as any situation where you’re having a conversation with someone. Look at their eyes for a few seconds, then look at something else for a couple seconds, then look back at their eyes again for a few seconds.

Holy fucking shit literally laughing out loud over here!!!

Dude you just aren’t discerning enough to be able to appreciate the complexities and subtleties of a truly artistic song like that

We have those in the states too. They’re yummy
