    The question's options don't necessarily mean that most people have never heard of Dick Cheney, Don't know could also include people who have heard of him but don't have a strong opinion about his favorability.

    I know but for these polls it's absolutely always been where any politician who's known, a lot of people have distinct opinions about their favorability, which is what makes me wonder if people just forgot who Dick Cheney was

    I swear the structure of learning content in my Stats Experimental Design class is so bad in spots. Like why can't you just put the SAS coding formulas next to each analysis concept in the PowerPoints instead of making us fish around the textbooks for the coding, where sometimes words you look up have more than one meaning so you're running around in circles trying to find the right coding. And then a lot of the time he spends like the entire class on fairly easy to understand stuff but then does a 3-minute glossover of much harder material, and usually doesn't even explain in class how to do the coding which you NEED to know to get any of the questions on the midterm right coming up. I have an office hour meeting with him tomorrow so I'll try to explain that the coding needs to be seen more easily but while maybe he won't, if he just gives the "you should be able to find the coding" dodge when we're not able to instead of change anything I'm going to be frustrated.

    I know some people really don't like how My Hero Academia ended, but being in the middle of Season 3 of the show form myself, I really hope that's one of those cases where there's just a popular/viral nitpick like "Deku gets a new job people see as slightly too silly after saving the world" instead of say "Deku turns out to be a bad person who endangers the world".

    I don't watch that show but I can kind of relate because I've seen a similar thing with how a lot of MLP G4 fans kind of over-critique the later seasons of Friendship Is Magic. I think the whole show itself was really good, even the later seasons. Like, I don't think there was that much stuff bad with the later seasons. But yeah. Fans can be finnicky sometimes with critique of stuff. So yeah. I can kind of relate. Of course, that is if the series ends ok and not great but doesn't end bad.

    My dad still wants to keep my app store blocked at 22 lmao I've already bought a new phone I use anyway. I'm so happy I'll be moving back to me college tomorrow so I don't have to deal with that screen time overprotectiveness for four months straight (as I still have slower connection because I don't want to use the house Wi-Fi server and have him find out & threaten to pull funding)

    Yeah, I feel you there. Almost everyone loves their parents, but curse their overprotective nature. It doesn't matter the world is a dangerous place, sheltering your kids will only do more harm than good.

    I believe a certain amount of sheltering and restrictiveness from parents can be constructive, but there's a point where you can't tell your kids what to do anymore and just hope for the best.

    @G Major Steven Stone I have three and a half hours of screen time a day and found out that's actually healthy when it comes to the Internet. If you get more than that it can be bad for your mental health, and on top of that, your online social skills will go down. Like, not making this up; it's been researched and tested. Surprised to find out my parents were right that I need to limit it. In the past when I had more than that amount of screen time it would be bad for my mental health, and I WOULD actually get worse at online social skills, so apparently this is what's best for me. However, I am allowed to use my computer offline pretty much as long as I want all day long. Anyway, as far as the screen time I get, hopefully your dad allows you at least THAT much screen time. If not, eh, when you move back out again you can do what you want. Other than limiting my screen time to that amount of time, my parents pretty much let me do my own thing with everything. They don't try to censor stuff for me anymore because they know I'm an adult and can handle a lot of the stuff they sheltered me from as a kid and a teenager, and pretty much all of the stuff I do they allow me complete privacy with, such as letting me watch whatever I want on YouTube, etc. And I really respect them for all that; not all parents can do that when their kids grow up. Sometimes they have trouble letting go. Once I'm done with college I'll be living in an apartment in town near our home but I'll still visit my parents often. Anyway, my parents are great when it comes to letting go. They allow me freedom and complete privacy with pretty much everything.

    I am so happy over my summer internship I'm getting paid $19 an hour just to organize names for a polling company in an airconditioned room, as opposed to my last semester at college where I got paid $10 an hour to organize plates in a hissing with heat and humidity room.

    Congrats you are getting paid around as much as city carrier assistant (not a dig at you, that's decent money)
    Will Solace
    Will Solace
    Yeah it is a decent pay. For each of my last two semesters I'm taking five classes including at least one Statistics class for my minor in said field, so since I'm not planning to work resultingly the pay really helps.

    I am DONE with summer classes for the summer, I took a US Criminal Law class and a Comparative Politics class. I preferred the US Criminal Law class because it was in person and not as stretched out (I'd been doing the Comp. Pol class since the middle of May so it's almost the entire summer) but both were good

    i just finished all mine too! i did cna certification + cpr certification + intro to infection control + a writing course + a computer course

    not as bad as my 8 courses in 8 weeks but man getting all As was tough sometimes

    im heading into advanced anatomy for the fall to clear out nursing prereqs
    Will Solace
    Will Solace
    @Veneer Wait, you did eight courses in eight weeks? Was this in high school or early college? What were they?

    I know one of my friend's girlfriend is interested in physical therapy, but I'm curious to know what you're planning to get a job in

    college, i was uhhhh 15? 16? due to covid high schoolers were allowed to take actual (NOT dual credit) college classes over the summer and i maxxed out my credits since they were all free. they were anatomy 1, dosage and calcuation, nutrition, art appreciation, health and wellness for life, medical law and ethics, and i think one i'm forgetting lol. one of these professors flat out denyed my autism accomidations so hard that i up and took my midterm without accomidations (which is illegal btw) and it got him in big fat ass trouble LMAO

    im gonna do basic nursing first but really wanna get into radiology. there's also a bunch of certificates in the medical field that can instantly let you work (CNA, QMA, phlebotomy..) that i am also picking up.

    I wonder how Trump would have reacted if there was an attempted assassination of Biden
    MegaBowser64
    MegaBowser64
    Despite how he clearly holds zero respect for Biden, I don't think Trump would ever endorse an assassination (or attempted assassination) of him, nor do I think Biden would ever endorse an assassination or attempted assassination of Trump. I suppose both would probably give morally required condolences etc. and be done with it, of course taking necessary action against the attempted or successful assassinator.

    And regarding an attempted assassination being theoretically not as bad as an actual assassination, that doesn't really work seeing as the motives and intentions of murder are the same regardless of results.

    Edit: I tried to keep this politically neutral so let's try not to have a huge argument here

    You know, there's some things that are probably just too potentially inflammatory even with you guys being generally chill about things, so honestly I'm just gonna say to not bring up that particular current event.

    Oh. I missed something big. Trump was actually shot. At the time of commenting I had no clue on what had happened. Ummm. Ok. Wow. I just read it 30 seconds ago. Aaaaanyway, take my earlier comment with a grain of salt now that I know there was a real event that this profile post was talking about. Now I definitely agree it's best to leave this topic alone for now.

    I haven't played the fan localization of Investigations 2 so I have no attachment towards it but Sebastian Debeste is clearly a better name than "Eustace Winner". At least the former name doesn't just slap on a common English word as its last name

    Hmm I guess that improves it by a bit. I still think Capcom needs to have moderation and not oversaturate actual English word names though as that would feel goofy/gimmicky

    I just finished Danny Phantom yesterday with Phantom Planet, which… tbh kinda lives down to its acronym. The show as a whole was pretty good though with a worth watching first two seasons, at least.
    Will Solace
    I'm surprised that with Inside Out 2 there hasn't been more backlash that it's another sequel Pixar is making. I guess that's an indicator of how good the first movie was
