I fully endorse this point, but with an added caveat. The government is made up of people, just like any other organization, but there is often less money to be had in the public sector than the private sector (corruption notwithstanding) so often you wind up with people passionate about their work, but occasionally you have people who aren’t talented enough to hack it in the private sector.

The second example kind of feels like the Third Man Factor.

Great tip! Thank you for sharing!

Interesting, what did you use them for?

I don’t want to set the world on fiiiire.

Most honorable? Just tell them you made a stupid mistake. You don’t need to share the details. Will they talk? Sure. But you don’t need to share if you don’t want to.

Least shameful? You were mistaken for someone else who made a stupid mistake and didn’t have your ID on you. They let you go when they realized you weren’t who they thought.

Absolutely. If you learn about visual hierarchy in design, one of the first things that you learn is that those who have language that read from left to right will instinctively look at the top left, across, and top to bottom, in kind of an “F” pattern.

This guy’s a fraud. Birds don’t have lungs, they have series of air sacs.

edit: my bad, I should take this course. The lungs move the air through the air sacs

Or maybe add some extra trailing 0s… fractions of a cent exist, right?

Hilariously this is actually anti-disability. Many people have mobility issues without needing a wheelchair all the time, and really benefit from having places to sit. Removing a seat removes that option.

Fun fact, if you’re a visible minority people will ask you the same question in English speaking countries!

it’s the door that opens with the gentle touch

Thank you! I think that this can really help me. It’s how my husband gets around it when we divvy up chores and I somehow didn’t think I could do this for myself.

How do you accept the demand avoidance though? At times it’s so bad for me that I cry when I try to ask myself to do something that needs to be done?

Thanks for sharing, that is a neat design.

You’re not alone. I had a hard time taking my inhalers daily once my benefits started covering them, because they were so expensive I used to ration them for when I really “needed” it.

I’ve been dying to take a vacation for years, but we carry some debt on our line of credit from a renovation we did summer before last, and my husband is so anti-debt from how his parents struggled that we gotta get that to 0 before he’ll be comfortable spending on a vacation, even though realistically we are financially ok.

I could see Greece being pretty sheltered from niche internet communities. I think furries go against their state religion (which has say in their education and media)

Crazy, I’ve only ever met one iron scrap sculptor and she’s a woman.
