  • nah OP, you go try making that triple layer cheesy bread

    though i’d perhaps encourage you to make it a single layer cheesy break, as to not get discouraged and have something yummy to eat when you’re done even if you kinda give up by the end

    your cooking journey has to start somewhere! might as well start with something you’d like to eat




  • yes that is indeed the moral dilemma of the trolley problem

    i’ve seen people claim that the decision is easy - but the comfort of this being a simple thought experiment softens the fact you are pulling the lever that’s going to kill that one person. If you don’t, sure 5 people die - but you can absolve yourself of guilt easier than if you pulled the lever and, in a way, caused that one death








  • yea true, though (and again i’m just speculating and talking out of my ass, do tell me if you find that annoying i can do research i just don’t feel like it atm) wouldn’t first schools have been made just for the working class kids? The rich kids were getting home schooled by best professors and then sent off to universities. The working class kids would be sent to the newly established general schools where they could learn and find new opportunities (and get conditioned to work in factories). I don’t think you’d see many rich kids in schools with “the poors”. And once schools became the norm, and rich kids schools began popping up then the schematic of what a pre-university school looked like was already established



  • i thiiink it’s to help everyone see & hear better, like in ancient Greek theatres

    this is all guesswork but, i’m guessing that since university education historically (and in a lot of places to this day) is more a thing of the rich they actually put some thought into the design of the lecture halls. And for the education of the poors that’s simply made to condition them to work in factories they just put some tables and chairs in a room and called it a day - and since then the design stuck




  • ye but i wouldn’t have known about it since i never put it on with an intention to disappear. Only after being told the ring is “special and powerful and stuff” i’d try to use it to do something i can’t normally, otherwise it’s just a trinket. Well, a trinket i’d be oddly attached to, but it’s a gift from my uncle so that attachment wouldn’t be that weird, right?

    or as Freud put it:

    “So, I gave my lecture yesterday. Despite the lack of preparation, I spoke quite well and without hesitation, which I ascribe to the cocaine I had taken before hand. I told about my discoveries in brain anatomy, all very difficult things that the audience certainly did not understand, but all that matters is that they get the impression that I understand it.”
