  • That articles always mention the economic models will cause catastrophic disasters since they are based on infinite growth. But economics models are notoriously bad. They can never perfect a recession and predictions are almost never hit. So why would this be any different. We will get by but maybe just in a different way

  • TIL in the Carboniferous Period, no fungus existed to decompose trees. They just grew on top of each other up and up.
  • Thank God for fungi. They do so much for us and now eating plastics. We really need something to eat it all

  • Therapists are blaming polyamory for patients' problems. These researchers want to change that.
  • Don't forget that therapists fall under multiple different educations that have a different origin and therefore different values. Psychologist, social workers, counselor and licensed marriage and family therapists all perform therapy and different educations with different emphasis. So depending on who you see this will have an affect as well.

  • First strawberries! For those that grow them, how big is your patch?
  • The last two years we have bought Strawberries in a hanging pot. The runners end up with dangling strawberries on them which increases the yield. We didn't winterize them correctly so we got a new basket this year. They spread like crazy so you don't want them directly in the yard.

    Wild strawberries Fragaria virginiana are the North America native variety and are a little more well behaved but will still create a mat that will smoother things under them. Best to buy the plant and let it spread

  • The Alitos, the neighborhood clash and the upside-down flag

  • Facts.
  • The correct size is many many handfuls or one bag for most dishes

  • I like this simple graph and article. It shows that inflation has slowed but since it always a positive the total affect is still large.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • This is really true when you think about how much wages have fallen behind for years. To make up that much ground there needs to massive raises. Like the ones won by UAW recently. It will take time until that happens

  • What would the IRL (in real life) of "real life"/offline life be?
  • Whatever you do outside of work. That's real life not whatever you do pay for your real life.

  • Amtrak Borealis launches, connecting Chicago and Twin Cities – NBC Chicago
  • Don't mind the price but the time is long. It will be slightly faster than driving but most of that time is gained going from the Chicago burbs to the city center. Depends on where in Chicago you are going

    Nine Arches: Anyone played it before

    Does anyone have any experience with this? My wife and I love games and love adventures. We are always looking for new things to do and was wondering what people's experiences are with this. She loves Tarot and this keeps getting recommended to us online. Want to see what people think before we buy it
