  • I’m the person who commented this. I took the train in LA for a long time since I want to stop using cars. My experiences there with the lack of security made me realize why hardly anyone takes it. My problem was with the smoking meth part. All I got for my trouble was someone accusing me of not really living there and a ban before I could explain myself.

    I’ve alread apologized about the way I said it and tried to clarify yet all I get is more hate and people saying to let them smoke it in peace. Hardly anyone wants to have a real good faith dialogue and instead just reactively dunked on me for uttering the word “homeless” for someone who is clearly doing illegal things in public. If a single adjective is enough to be considered inflammatory then I’m worried we’ll ever be able to have civil discourse that goes beyond an echo chamber.




  • To not have to work another day in my life. Sure I could say to be excessively wealthy but I’m happy with satisfying basic needs and living in my simple home. All I want is to be able to wake up every day without the crushing burden of having to keep a job that keeps the spectre of starvation and homelessness away for another few days.

    Even though I hate Musk now, I was inspired by Tesla’s ambitious goals of creating a mass produced EV and thought becoming a chemist would be a great way to find my way in to the company developing a better battery. A counselor later suggested I take mechanical engineering instead so I switched majors. I ended up bouncing around biomedical companies until I eventually landed a nice gig making satellites.

    I was in Japan for two weeks and at first I thought I really liked them. The ones I used had heated seats, ran speakers with the sound of water to cover up any uncomfortable sounds others may hear, and had the all-important bidet. The one downside that made me get tired of them though was the small toilet hole. The toilet seat itself had most of those gadgets embedded in it and thus took up quite a bit of room and I’m used to the long type of seat with an opening at the front. I didn’t have a comfortable position for both by butt and penis to fit comfortably without a bit of an ab workout so they got old for me pretty quickly. I recommend just sticking to an installed bidet if you’re larger than the average Japanese man.
