  • It’s always bugged me that cities use this excuse but then they pave roadways and parking lots with drainage basins that shoot that water directly into the nearest river as fast as possible creating more impact than if every household had ten of these barrels.

    Plus a lot of the time people collect rainwater to water their gardens instead of using city water so it’s just delaying the input of the water into the system.




  • I never really understand art like this. It’s unique, and interesting, and fun to look at, but it’s really not that special unless I’m missing something.

    It’s just random shapes, and a unique set up. Like cutting the apples and fruit in certain ways.

    Just seems like a lot of work for something to look at for 3 seconds since there’s nothing else to it.


  • It’s only a matter of time before Google doesn’t give you directions for the shortest and most efficient route, but rather plans your route to send you past the stores that pay the most in advertising.

    “You could get to your destination by going down smith street fastest, but Glover Street has McDonald’s so we will send you down that road”


  • It shows little popup logos on the screen where the places are located, like a McDonald’s logo a few street over as you are driving by in your commute. I had it show me a Toyota logo for a Toyota dealership yesterday. Like, why do I need to know there’s a Toyota dealership there unless I’m specifically searching for it? Toyota probably paid them to show up a certain amount of times.





  • Where I am if it’s inside the house, like the outer door’s wall is insulated, than the room is a foyer/mud room. If it’s outside the house, i.e. the outer door’s wall is not insulated, then it is a sundeck.

    If there is only one door and the outer area is exposed with just a railing instead of a wall it’s a porch/patio.



  • Personally I don’t even subscribe to any. I just browse all and then filter out any community that pops up which I don’t think I’ll ever be interested in.

    I started to subscribe to a few but when browsing subscribed only I felt like I was potentially missing so much, because maybe I subscribed to the wrong “aww” instance but I also didn’t want to go through and find the 3-4 different versions to subscribe to.

    This way I see everything, except the stuff that I definitely don’t want to see (like most of the porn instances, non-english instances, etc.)
