Maturing is realizing the Waffle House Index is a shitty unit of "measuring" the severity of a catastrophe, and we should never have plainly and callously celebrated a company that is willing to sacrifice their employees during a hurricane for below-par food. We should never celebrate this, anyway, but the sheer level of crass jokes that are associated with this "metric" is uniquely cruel.
#politics#us politcs#why is Wikipedia describing the waffle house index as an 'informal but USEFUL metric' what the actual fuck#how are y'all This callous#also i dont think this is a useful metric notwithstanding everything else...#...because you're fundamentally a business and encouraging people to Brave A Hurricane or whatever is Dangerous actually :)#i feel like all this does is make people take extreme weather LESS seriously. it is by NO means a 'useful metric'#also don't come at me for saying their food is below-par. my opinion of them is irrevocably sullied because of shit like that#and i am not willing to give them grace and understanding in this. they can handle me saying their food is Not Worth Lives

Commonplacing
Commonplacing refers to the practice of collecting and compiling significant or interesting passages, thoughts, quotations, and information from various sources into a personal notebook or commonplace book. People jot down excerpts from books, lectures, conversations, and other sources, organizing them thematically for easy reference.
The purpose of commonplacing is to create a personalized resource that gathers valuable insights, knowledge, and reflections. These books became a way for individuals to create their own intellectual and philosophical repositories.
Famous historical figures, including thinkers like John Locke and Thomas Jefferson, were known to keep commonplace books. The practice has evolved over time, and some contemporary note-taking methods or digital tools can be seen as modern iterations of this age-old tradition.

I wanted to ask you, do you have any advise in making meta analisys? I'm interested in making some analysis on the dsmp lore once i finish the lore and start watching the vod closely. But i feel kind of intimidated by seeing how people can be rude to each other when talking about the lore and a bit lost on how to interact with other's analisys. And wanted to know if you have any advise for people who want to start on the meta analysis part of the fandom?
Well, I'd hardly call myself an expert since well... I'm not exactly one of the ogs here and I'm getting the impression there are many people here who don't exactly like what I have to say, but you ask so I'll give you my two cents and hope I don't lead you a stray.
You will probably notice a variety of how people go about their analysis. I wouldn't say there is a right or wrong way, it's not like we are professionals or anything, we are just having fun looking at a story and its elements. Some people take that too seriously, which is unfortunate since at the end of the day we are talking about characters of some Minecraft roleplay series. But it's easy in a writing format to come across the wrong way and make people feel attacked, because there isn't tone or body language and stuff.
Anyways, here are I guess some of the things I keep in mind.
There is a difference in fact and opinion, and just because I see things a certain way doesn't make it fact or the other person wrong, so the way I make sure to highlight this is through statements like - "the way I see it" "in my mind" "in my opinion" "personally I see it as" "I think" "I feel like" "It is interesting to me"... etc phrases to emphasize that this is my opinion, but that is not the end all be all. I also like to include plenty of "perhaps" "maybe" "I don't knows" and legitimate questions in there. I do this to hopefully open it up to say - hey this is how I see it - which hopefully comes across as less as me correcting them but just adding thoughts. One of the things that frustrates me sometimes, is that I see people say things as if they just are facts and true when they aren't necessarily. Something that further frustrates me when no evidence or way for me to see for myself is provided. Which is why I also try to provide, links, clips, quotes and stuff so people don't have to just take my word for it. Not to say I am always great about doing this or that it is always required, there are some things that are just more wildly known so it's not needed to cite everything. My rule of thumb for this is if it's more obscure or not common knowledge, so whether it's word specific, a scene not talked about, an like an academic source (or if I just so happen to have it clipped or written down lol XD). Not that you have to do either of those things of course, it's very much up to you how you want to do it, this is just how I do it because my autism engineer ass likes the facts and the why and how of things. Like if you say 'c!Dream's hair is green' I'm like - okay, that's an opinion, good for you - but if you say 'I think Dream's hair is green and this is why', then I'm a lot more interested in what you have to say, but again that's just me. It is worth noting also, that I'd say don't insult someone's intelligence or person because of something they said about a Minecraft boy at 3am ya know? Try to avoid being derogatory or nasty. You don't have to respect their opinion or agree, but you should respect them as a person, a person with the right to say something on the internet without being bashed because people don't like it. I would say it is better to say I think 'this take is dumb', not 'you are dumb' because of this take (though also probably best to avoid dumb in general as it is kinda derogatory and rude but hopefully you get the gist). It can also be nice to highlight something you agree with or liked that the other person said to make sure you're not being all negative and give them credit when you are agreeing and adding to a statement so they don't think you are correcting them.
Other things I do, to hopefully not come across aggressive is not using all caps or exclamation points - cuz in my mind I'm like why are you yelling at me ya know :( - I prefer italics and bold and sometimes capitalizing words, but that's just how I do it because I noticed that those things make me feel attacked whether or not that person meant it that way. Sometimes people will straight up say they are done, but sometimes it may be is less directly, so in general I'd say if the other person doesn't seem to want to engage further or has conceded in any way, big or small, they are probably done talking about it. When you go past that mark, then they will definitely feel more like they're being attacked (I think this is one of the things I run into with asks as I feel done, but they continue it on (which of course I know why, they may not have gotten to share their points on the matter yet or whatever) and I'm always torn on whether to continue, because I may also just feel tired of talking about it). I'd say also either ask them permission directly or in your response, like sometimes I'll say - "I hope it's okay if I add on" because that person may not want to engage. And if it's about direct statements or arguments, then make sure the other person is made aware, like if I'm responding to tags I try and tag that person. Or if I am building off of what someone said in a different direction I might also tag them, or go to their ask box, go to the comments, or whatever. It doesn't feel good to have people pick apart what you said without being given a chance to defend yourself. Assume the best in people, they may not be trying to be a certain way, and the way you read something may not be the way they meant and I'd say it's always better to ask for clarification then take something the wrong way. (I'd say that genrally about real life too - like if you don't know a word someone is using, ask them to define or clarify, to most people it shows you are actually listening so they are more than happy to explain)
General rule - be respectful and kind, remember to not take things too seriously cuz we are talking about characters after all. We are all here to engage in something we love. <3
Also in regards to analysis and lore, I'd say be aware of bias and context and assumptions, keeping in mind are you looking at something from a character's point of view or an outsider.
#I won't talk more about bias and perspective since iI have other places feel free to check my index for some of those posts#hopefully this was helpful... it try :)... give recent events though may want to take it with a grain of salt lol XD...#though maybe we can start a new fandom culture as new people join that focuses less on harassment and on discussion and lore <3#hello there#food for thought#as an aside I've seen the word meta being used more recently almost instead of lore and canon and I am confused.

No End In Sight
The heat wave has been going on for well over a week. The heat index has been consistently between 100-110 this entire time. The forecast has more of the same for the next week
Meanwhile, the temps in this old farmhouse have been staggering. Downstairs has been sweltering while the heat upstairs is borderline nuclear. Both of my offspring are unable to sleep or even get comfortable. They both have several fans that only move the hot air around. Both of them keep getting sick from the heat. @helly-watermelonsmellinfellon is having the worst time of it.
Unfortunately, since it's so friggin hot, we have nothing we can eat that doesn't require the oven. In fact, none of us want to even eat anything that is hot. Fruit salad, ice pops, and pasta salad are more of what we can handle but there's no way to get them.
It would be really nice to be able to use my ACs but until the electrical has been updated, we dare not risk a possible fire.
To give you an idea, we have already gone through 5 40 pks of bottled water in 2 weeks.
Lord, help us

"THE COST OF LIVING IS STILL SOARING," Toronto Globe. September 10, 1913. Page 7. --- AND THE PROSPECTS FOR A PRONOUNCED DROP ARE NOT VERY BRIGHT. ---- (Canadian Press Despatch.) Ottawa, Sept. 9. - The cost of living index number took another jump upwards last month from 135.9, the figures for July, to 136.2. In August, 1912, the figures were 133.3, so that there was near a three-point in. crease in August of this year compared with the same month a year ago. "And," say the officials at the Labor Department who compile the average cost of prices every month, "the prospects for any pronounced drop in the average cost of the commodities classified under the list of necessities of life are not very bright."
The cause for the advance in the average cost last month was principally due to the increase in price of potatoes, eggs, canned lobster, anthracite coal, grains and fodder. Such things as beef, lamb, butter, lake trout, whitefish, canned peas and coffee dropped a few points.
Meats are a little higher in price than they were a year ago, but grains - and fodder are lower.

I’ve been drawing a lot more often (yay!) but because of it tendinitis has been flaring up real bad in my right hand (not so yay!)
I found my brace though and god like the instant relief it brings once I get it adjusted properly is crazy, when the Tylenol I took kicks in too I’ll feel invincible 😤
#maybe my index finger will stop twitching too 😇#I don’t think I can realistically wear it at work bc I don’t wanna get like food and shit on it#so I’m wearing it for a few hours before my shift and then I’ll put her back on when I get home :)#ooo I’ll put it in my car so it’ll be cold when I put it on again tonight

worldbuilding exercise: create a series of prohibitions on fundamental actions, with specific conditions. consider the loopholes by which daily tasks are carried out while still obeying the rules
#indexed post#thinking about the shabbat lamp i saw at an observant family's house#Which is always on (you can't kindle or extinguish a fire - which some interpret as electric light)#But could be rotated to cover or uncover the light#And also learning how to keep food heated while not being able to cook#And like the generation of a 'private space' encompassing blocks so you can carry items without breaching into a 'public space'#etc.

unbelievably easy plant-based meal #4: harissa sweet potato & cucumber salad pitas
does this photograph well? not really! but is it unbelievably delicious and almost criminally easy to prepare? yes x 10000!!! this is an old hello fresh recipe that my bff liz recently made for me and it is soooo good and so low effort.
what you need: one sweet potato, one cucumber, some plain Greek yogurt or mayo, dill if you like it, white wine vinegar, whole wheat pita pockets (my store didn’t have pockets so I’m just doing pitas), and harissa (kinda hard to find sometimes but you can buy a giant thing of it on amazon)
what you do:
preheat the oven to 450. chop the cucumber and the sweet potato into half moons that are like… idk… a quarter inch thick. put the sweet potatoes only on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt pepper and harissa, and pop it in the oven for 18-20 min.
put the chopped cucumber into a bowl. dump in some white wine vinegar (doesn’t have to be a ton but you’re gonna let the cucumbers kinda marinate in there while the sweet potatoes cook. add a little olive oil, salt and pepper, and some chopped dill if you like it.
make your sauce in a small bowl—the tastiest combo is mayo + garlic + salt pepper + lots of harissa, but I sometimes do plain Greek yogurt instead because I like the tanginess of the yogurt and it’s a bit healthier. both good! once I’ve done this step I usually pause to clean up everything else (it’s minimal mess).
when the potatoes are close, lightly toast your whole wheat pitas and get stuff ready.
enjoy!!! keeps well in the fridge for a couple days too—just cover or wrap everything and then you can pop the sweet potatoes in the microwave & toast a new pita for lunch.
additional thoughts:
this one is fun because it’s INTERACTIVE (you get to make your own pita with your desired proportions) and it’s virtually no prep apart from easy slicing and a little mixing.
clean up is super easy especially if you use foil on your baking sheet and clean up as you go
#for portion sizes I usually do one pita piled high with stuff & cut in half#but you do you it’s very yummy#i do recommend whole wheat pita over white/regular pita though#i think it’s tastier and it’ll keep you full longer#more fiber + a lower glycemic index value which is good if you have pcos or are watching blood sugar#recipe book tag#unbelievably easy plant based meals#food
