Tywin et al. Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 55 minutes ago, LongRider said: What ever for? Two grad students were running a lab tracking people's eye movements when shown positive, negative and neutral images on a computer screen. Images of different sizes would appear at random places on the screen, and sometimes two or more images would appear at the same time. ETA: And to be clear, they were much more modern and participants could opt out if they didn't feel comfortable. The datasets were just separated.

Negative, but the post-session interviews were always interesting. Most people aren't used to seeing a softcore porn image followed by a picture of U.S. soldiers walking through a concentration camp surveying the dead.

Teng Ai Hui Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Evidently, I have been greenlighting myself for my entire life. I just discovered that the Berenstain Bears were created by Stan and Jan Berenstain. It's really -stain, not -stein? Has my whole childhood been a lie? Is Optimus Prime actually a Transfarmer?

JGP Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 My rage machine needed a reset, so I've [not entirely] been offline for a week or so. It worked, so of course I'm going to get cranked up over the next week, cause news. Vicious cycle. Tomorrow is the start of online home schooling for my daughters. I have a week on - week off parenting schedule with the ex, and she's in the last year of school herself. Plus. the internet service at their property outside of the city sucks ass, so she'll be dropping the girls off and I'll be dealing with the girls schooling on her weeks too. It's decidedly not a slap dash distance learning program like the school division hobbled together last fall. I'd say I'm less nervous and more terrified, but I still got my brave face here somewhere. Wish me luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGP Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Thanks, Bird. I think I'll do fine excepting the math stuff. :/ Good thing there's a panic hotline for a teacher assist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard Queen Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I had some teeth filled today. I currently can smile (don't think I could the first hour or so -- it didn't happen when I talked to anyone then), but can't really rub my lips together. I also can't drink from a straw, but can awkwardly drink from a cup (I have a plastic one I bite down on to drink from, that or I pour into my mouth lol). Interesting...

Ramsay B. Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 So due to many complaints(I’m assuming), my employer has finally decided to turn Fox News off of the tv’s in the two cafs. It’s unfortunately been a fixture for years there. I can finally eat breakfast in peace. The worst part is I heard my union requested it to be on that dumb channel this whole time. Oh the irony.

Geezus that's appalling. As a career long union member, it's gut wrenchingly, sickening to see and hear this type of behavior. I myself await with great anticipation, for a day soon in November, when some of my dirtbag workmates all have these very longfaced, dejected looks over their hero being crushed and as they quake in fear and outrage over a certain Kamala being a heartbeat away.
