My housemate had a cat that, when you yawned, would look at you, and as soon as you were done, it would do a special meow. When fake yawning, the cat knew it was fake, no matter how well it was faked.

Could not finish it. The story would not start, eventually I stopped caring.

Funny collection of stories that happened to him over the years. Very entertaining and funny.

Then, after you think you know enough, read A Random Walk Down Wall Street by Malkiel, and eventually you’ll end up at the Bogleheads wiki and forum.

myrmidex@belgae.socialto Canada@lemmy.ca•‘It’s too late’: David Suzuki says the fight against climate change is lost - iPolitics281·26 days agothe focus on politics, economics, and law are all destined to fail because they are based around humans. They’re designed to guide humans, but we’ve left out the foundation of our existence, which is nature, clean air, pure water, rich soil, food, and sunlight. That’s the foundation of the way we live and, when we construct legal, economic and political systems, they have to be built around protecting those very things, but they’re not.
Powerful truth!
myrmidex@belgae.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What book(s) are you reading right now and recommend for others?English4·26 days agoCurrently reading: James Acaster’s Classic Scrapes. A funny collection of stories from his childhood, an enjoyable read. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for something light and funny.
Before this, I gave up on the book All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai, after about a hundred pages. I just couldn’t get into it, the story kept halting in favor of flashbacks and setting the MC’s backstory. I hate stories not starting soon enough with the actual story. Unnecessary to say, but I would not recommend this :)
myrmidex@belgae.socialto News@lemmy.world•20 states sue after the Trump administration releases private Medicaid data to deportation officials21·28 days agoYes indeed! In my mind civilization and hierarchy overlap perfectly, am I mistaken? Care to hand me some examples where that is not the case?
myrmidex@belgae.socialto News@lemmy.world•20 states sue after the Trump administration releases private Medicaid data to deportation officials7·28 days agoIt wasn’t meant to come over as cynical. I just wanted to indicate how this is not exclusive to these times. Before the modern age, there were already a lot of powerful people doing a lot of heinous things. I just wonder when the finger will start pointing, not at those in power, but at power itself.

myrmidex@belgae.socialto World News@lemmy.world•Pro-Palestinian activists in Belgium damage equipment bound for UkraineEnglish71·1 month agoI saw this item pass by on the local news the other day, including an interview with Versluys, and I don’t recall any of them mentioning the exports bound for Ukraine. Looking at the article from a few days back, that doesn’t mention it either. Just saying, there’s a good chance the protesters did not intend to impact Ukraine.
Ah yes, there it is: won’t anyone think of the children. I expected that argument higher up in the article.
