the lake is literally poisonous (mercury year-round and cyanobacteria blooms to spice it up during the summer) and the area's economy has been in continuous decline since the 90s; the lake used to be a major tourist destination but that stopped and the resort closed. the only remaining major industry is wine and most everything that's not a winery is either trailers or has burned down. most of the streets in the county seat, Clearlake, aren't paved.



but yes, I am still comparatively privileged, and I understand most people wouldn't be able to spend the summer living with their dad even in exchange for cutting firebreaks and being afraid of fires for the entire summer and having to wear a respirator to go outside for a subset of that

doesn't change the fact that my only in-person social interaction is with my dad and I can't afford gas money to go anywhere else, a timing belt, or a bed

it's very interesting to look at and compare bogans, rednecks, and boers/boeres, all of whom are lower class whites living in former british colonies. it's especially interesting to look at how close all of their political opinions are considering each group of idiots are on the other side of the world from each other

I wonder if there are any historians or sociologists with comparative works about how other imperial powers transitioned out of their colonial / imperial eras.

i believe france and spain lost most of their holdings through violence and portugal and the dutch didn't do much better, but yeah that would be super interesting to read about

ksp was brilliant years ago, wonder what's happened to it

still remember the precise moment when everything about orbital physics finally clicked, and why relative maneuvers work the way they do [tho normal/antinormal burns are still loving perplexing to me as axes go, at least as far as understanding the result]

... long as i got some utility doing the actual MATH anyway, i can figure out the routes :v:

it’s very good and there are a lot of mods to help you calculate the important stuff like total delta v, required delta v for a given orbit, etc, plus the best mods let you make gently caress off huge rockets to get the parts for your massive space station up there to dock and assemble your massive as hell ship to go to the outer regions

I spent a lot of time setting up refueling stations around almost every planet with fuel miners on the surface to send fuel up to via special ships and what I’m saying here is my autism hit a critical mass playing that game

both are the problem

collective government bargaining with pharma and medical companies would yield things like "you're going to sell your poo poo at a reasonable price or you wont be selling your poo poo at all" like how almost every country in europe does it but conservatives are like WAHHHH THEY'LL RUN OFF TO INDIA QQ and not really think about the fact that if they are willing to run off to india to make a profit they dont give a flying gently caress about their workers
