I don't much like my first name, but it's the name my mom gave me, and I would never change it because of that. My mom said she gave her kids less common names because everyone on her side of the family was named biblical names, like John, Mary, and Paul. And, she wasn't religious, so she picked names she liked that were specifically not biblical.
I used to have down to 1/16" in decimal memorized. Got me within 1/32, which was enough. I only have 1/8" decimal still memorized, I don't need it as much as I used to.
This category was down by 0.2% from May of 2024 to May of 2025, a tiny drop, but one made more notable by employment in general trending up 0.8% in the same time period.
Correlation much?
Comparing a trend in a category expected to be affected by AI, to general employment doesn't mean the drop is because of the expected reason. Could be those businesses are suffering job losses for other, more mundane reasons.
Statues are often much larger than real life. So, a six-inch tall mosquito statue would be similar to a Statue of Unity for a mosquito. But, why stop there? The mosquitos don't give a fuck about a bloodless statue, so might as well make it 10-feet tall to induce nightmares in small children. Even better if it's an animated fountain, where it plunges its proboscis into the water and makes a splash.
Why would anyone want to go to Mars? Maybe 2000 years from now, after we've perhaps terraformed it. Until then, Mars is hell.
The best planet for any species is the planet they evolved on. We're a perfect match for Earth. We should stay on Earth until we develop the ability to terraform, or travel to another planet nearly identical to Earth.
Also, if we fuck up this planet to the point we can no longer survive here, then we should certainly not go out and fuck up another planet.
You should fold your socks together when they come out of the dryer.
Do this: buy all new socks, all the same color and brand, so they all match each other. Then you can just take any two and fold them together. If you're missing a sock, just leave the odd one in the dryer for the next time through, eventually, you'll find the other sock, and they'll be reunited. Also, when you take your socks off, don't leave them balled up, or turned inside out, so when they come out of the dryer they're ready to fold.
This is what I taught my kids. They had their own sock color, as did I. We always knew whose sock was on the floor in the hallway.
I think everyone goes through this... well, most people, anyway. Such is the burden of intelligent awareness--you know other animals don't worry about this shit. And, therein lies a clue.
What do you mean, "make sense"?
You can change your name to whatever you want. Imagine if your last name were Epstein, or Trump. No one would question your motivation.
It doesn't even need to be a serious reason, some people change their name to silly things: https://listverse.com/2024/02/21/10-bizarre-legal-name-changes/
