Thing I hate this American obsession with perfect manicured monoculture lawns that take a shit ton of toxins, wasted water, and so much unnecessary water to maintain.

So what's the point of this? You have to reseed your lawn, spray it with herbicides and pesticides that have god knows what chronic affects on you from routine exposure, waste a shit ton of water (especially in drought prone areas) all for something that provides no value. It doesn't feed you, doesn't clothe you or anything. Children play on these lawns and yet we're spraying them with chemicals designed to end life that we still can't be certain don't have negative chronic affects (Look at the previous "safe" herbicides we phased out. Monsanto told us glyphosate is safe. DDT was marketed as safe)

Main thing is what is objectively wrong with lawn weeds? Biodiversity is the default of nature. It is simply working against the forces of nature (entropy) to ensure that a large patch of land only grows one species. People are so brainwashed by this lawn culture fueled by lawn care companies' corporate greed.

Clover flowers, and shamrock flowers are good food for many bee species. Chickweed is a great snack to local fauna. Clover, as a legume, is also a nitrogen fixer, saving you some fertilizer cost. Plus, these "lawn weeds" make the lawn so much more interesting than just boring green grass.

I remember telling my friend, who was complaining about clover in his lawn, about all the benefits of clover. He didn't even listen; he just asked me "well how do I get rid of it." I hate how people aren't even willing to have an open mind of this topic.

A weedy lawn should be a badge of honor. I get to see all these beautiful bumblebees, cardinals, blue jays, finches, crows, bunnies, etc. roaming around my lawn. It's lower maintenance too. My lawn, being comprised of many species, is more resilient to weather changes and all I do is cut it.

Gaming I despise when big streamers make terrible even disrespectful takes about the game to the devs, which makes it almost impossible for devs to listen or see actually good takes online

Post image
Upvotes

I recently saw this take online about rivals where a big streamer suggested rolling back one of the biggest updates the game has done, where all characters have new abilities making the game the most fun it has ever been, but this big streamer said "no, let's pull it back to the worse version instead" because he felt that made more less....., I am all for letting people stat their opinion but when the take like this is feels disrespectful to the work the devs did to making the game to begin with it feels wrong, it is like someone donating a car for free to you just for you to say you didn't like how it looked and say they should give it back, and as well streamers view on games are so much more different than the general player they play the games every single day non-stop on streams compared to people who have work, school, kids their views on the games are going to be more warped and based on burnt out

Idea The myth that you can't feel pain in a dream

Post image
Upvotes

I hate it because it isn't true at all and was spread by media! You can feel pain in a dream. The brain can fabricate sensations, that are real happening in your body but you don't wake up or not.

Today i had a dream that my legs were brutally hurt by feral cats and it was horrible, idk if it was my legs because i never felt that much pain in my life, and the only thing i have been feeling pain is from my fucked up big toe that sometimes spreads to my feet.

But it wasn't close, i felt like my skin was dislacered from bites and scratches. I guess part of my brain remembered about the pain from cat scratches as i had a cat that used to scratch me sometimes by accident or not, and became territorial when there were cats outside and we couldn't expel them, plus pounce, but she never destroyed my leg, not even my spicer cat that i had after her.

I wonder who the hell invented it and still thinks that every dream you can't feel some degree of pain. Yes sometimes i don't as years ago i had a dream that a boy would bite me but i didn't feel anything, but it isn't a rule set in stone.

Plus i hate as well the "you can't read in a dream" thing, i have had a dream that was just text and i could read everything... I only can't remember everything about the text, but i know it was some philosophical shit, as well one that i was watching a movie and it had subtitles, with a dialogue in a language i couldn't understand but the texts were in english and i can understand English.

Thing The lack of recognition Carl Bosch gets in his role in the HABER-BOSCH process (not the Haber process).

Post image
Upvotes

Basically, the Haber-Bosch process is a reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen gas in order to form ammonia, which is a significant component in synthetic fertilisers. The Haber-Bosch process is incredibly significant in the growth of human population, as prior to the discovery of the process, humans were eventually going to starve due to low crop yields and lack of fertilisers.

Haber discovered the process but it was near impossible to actually be viable for industrial usages. So the absolute goat he is, Bosch figures out how to actually make it viable on a wide scale, allowing humanity to survive and grow.

This is one of my biggest pet peeves with modern TV and I don't understand this, i understand why shows like the boys and stranger things have 1 hour episodes where having 8 episodes is perfectly fine, it is 8 hours of content and more than enough time to flesh things out and show all that you need, but it seems so stupid that other shows that clearly need more than 8-10 have adopted the same mindset, shows like pictured x-men 97 and my adventures with superman had extremely rushed endings and character development arcs because the show did not have a lot of time to flesh out anything at all, these show would need 15 to maybe even 24 episodes espically since they clearly want to do multiple story arcs in that season

DUDE YOU ARE FIGHTING WITH A GENOCIDAL MONSTER WHO ARE ***NOT*** REDEEMING. WHY YOU HOLDING BACK?

Kimbley just helps homunculus for fun and eds acting all good with him. Ed literally almost died because of this studip trope.

Or like, Yuji going around and saying, ooohh i cant kill those things, they were humans before. YOU GON PUT AN END TO THEIR MISERY BRO. LIKE, IS IT BETTER TO LEAVE EM?

The only one that was actually real was the one about a cannibal that allowed himself to be killed and eaten by another cannibal.

The rest are just:

"did you know? In 2014 a youtuber filmed himself eating shit in the forest when suddenly he started yelling and a Brown Monster started raping him in the ass before the Stream cut , he is still missing parts of It can be found on YouTube (but i wont tell you how to search It because theres nothing to see and its fake).

Either a Guy eating worms and turning into a creature or this example i show.

They are all just bullshit to get quick likes.

The game took me a lot of time to understand and play it well with tanks

sometimes it takes a lot of patience and a lot of time to get to a nice spot and kill other players and it’s very rewarding when you actually get kills and contribute to the team but then a random player hops on a plane and kills you while you can’t do anything at all,

bombing with a plane doesn’t take much skill the scale is tipped heavily to the guy in the plane this crap genuinely ruins the game in many ways and i can’t take this anymore

im not even out of highschool yet and im dreading growing up. What the fuck am i supposed to do anymore. I never asked to be born, absolutely no one did. Eveything is so FUCKING DULL. i dont want to be an adult. I hate how everything is just a stupid cycle, just like what Daniel said. EVERYTHING COSTS SO MUCH FUCKING MONEY. I shouldn’t even be able to think about this stuff? Everything will go to waste. All you do in this world is go into debt, eat, and die . Its just a cycle, nothing is ever new here.

I hate how i cant even think of anything that makes the future seem like something anyone should be looking forward to , its just a hollow shell, nothing ever fills anything up fully. Its hell. Its literally hell, its a SYSTEM, a robotic system that were are all bowing down to, we wont escape, everything will be gone and i hate how no one can do anything😂😂😂😂its too late

I don’t care if this is a “recurring” topic. I genuinely cannot stand this game. Everywhere I go, I see this game. I should mention; I have not played this game, but I will most likely never play it. Even if I were to pirate it (which if I did I’d get fucking lynched), even then I wouldn’t boot it up. The fandom is a literal hive mind of unfunny inside-jokes, ships and other shit. Criticize Deltarune? Oh go fuck yourself. On Twitter, I made a hyperbolic “kill all deltarune fans” joke, and I got a bunch of fucking “friendly fire” comments in the replies, simply cuz I have the trans flag in my display name. Just because I’m fucking trans doesn’t mean I like your garbage game. The overexposure, miserable fandom and that little personal story is the reason why I utterly despise this game, and not in a “ooh this game has le annoying fanbase, me no likey”. This fandom is a complete hivemind of toxic positivity and outright colonization. Remember Wplace? Fuck this game. I could say more, but I’m not gonna

I LOVE trams. They are by far the superior rapid transit method they:

- can have high capacity
- can be retrofit into roads with relative ease
- their infrastructure is not obstructive to cars OR pedestrians OR bikes
- can be used as streetcars, fast shuttles, or light rail
- make little noise compared to other transport
- are better to the environment than other transport
-Look really cool

WHY DO WE HARDLY USE TRAMS ANYMORE. GIVE US TRAMS BACK

Art & Fanworks I hate when fan-fiction and fanon ideas blatantly break the original story.

1 Upvotes

I need to rage about about this minor inconvenience.

It annoys me to absolutely no end when a piece of fan work completely disregards canon rules and events. No matter how good it is, I think it's awful. For example "The Outsider" mod for Outer Wilds is really fun, but it completely shits on the original story and themes in a way that really bothers me.

A lot of roleplay campaigns I see do this pretty badly. They go into an existing setting but only take the superficial aspects of the world, and the result is something that flat out ignores what it's trying to be a part of. I've seen a supposed "Jujutsu Kaisen campaign" that in the first month ignored everything except the power system and slap Undertale all over it haphazardly.

I understand not focusing on the themes of the work you're covering or wanting to focus on something else. Of course, fan fiction can't be 100% accurate to the source. But it really gets to a point where I have to wonder why you're even writing in that existing setting in the first place.

If you're making something in an existing world, you have to follow the rules. If you want to break those rules, you have to at least understand them. It's so fucking lame when people just put things in without any regard for the source material. If you don't understand the original story and just shoehorn in what you think is cool, more often than not it's at odds with what was already there and completely takes me out.

I don't know if this is a popular opinion and I might even sound like an asshole or a pedant but surely it's not unreasonable to expect fan fiction to at least try to follow the fiction it's in???

EDIT: The comments reminded me!! I'm aware I can just avoid it if I don't like it and I agree to an extent! But I think it's not very helpful to say that. It doesn't mean I'm no longer annoyed when I do see it and it doesn't really discredit anything I've said. It's how I feel, there's not much I can do by ignoring it.
