I think we are looking at one of them new fangled microtonal keyboards. The white keys are your standard 12 TET notes (C, C#, D, D#, etc.) and the black keys are your half sharps / half flats.

Slaps roof you could fit so much math music in this bad boy.

At least in this administration.

Don’t forget to vote in November. I know we all said we aren’t voting for Biden but the realities for project 2025 are beginning to set in.

I noticed that with other threads, or when I edit comments. I’ve accidently pissed off a lot of people 😅

Yea I saw that then deleted my comment…

I remember space camp! I was in 5th grade and they had a 2020 mission to Mars simulator. We all died.

I like to think there was a two way mirror with researchers on one side taking notes. “Don’t send a team on 5th graders to Mars”

Are you a middle age straight man?

I’m pretty sure this wasn’t the most Anakin was burned.

More specifically because they are talking to me at all, not just in broken English.

I mean I just get turned on.

Awww for a second I thought the title of the post was the title of the article. Way to get my hopes up 😮‍💨

You fool it was SeaTac

I mean in this case it’s 1/3 your age +6

I remember the way I felt when the railroad strike first ended- it was a smack in the face to the railroad union. He sided against the protesters and ended the protest without giving them what they wanted- sick time off. I thought “dang, Biden is just another in a long line of anti-labor presidents”.

That was big news posted loud and everywhere.

And then only a few months later, and with little fanfare, The Biden administration pressured rail companies to give that sick leave.

Biden (actually Pete Buttigeig) prioritized preventing an immediate logistics crisis over workering conditions, but he didn’t just let it slide off his table. Now we don’t have a logistics crisis and the railroad union has more sick leave. Absolute win.

Also from my interactions on here:

On one side I have an old catholic bum who is committing genocide (by allowing companies to sell to a man who is committing genocide), and in the other side I have a convicted felon who would absolutely continue the genocide while removing my human rights and wants to turn the country into a dictatorship.

As a leftist, these two are exactly the same and I’m not voting.

We killed god and replaced it with Google.

What I find so interesting about painting people you disagree with as a monolith is that it naturally makes the argument you are against contradictory.

One group of people cheers Uber and you disagree with that.

Then another group of people (granted there will be some overlap) decry Uber later on.

These are two different people, but when you treat them as one, you’re bound to see your opposition as being contradictory at best and contrarian at worst.

Man you keep missing the point of looking at the current administration.

Go take your break before Putin sends you to the gulag.

in spite of that administration

Wtf are you talking about? Do you not remember DOMA being repealed which was crucial for gay marriage to pass? Here is a quick list for you to use as evidence that the Obama administration was hostile to LGBTQ people.

plenty of pro-gay politicians in 1984

Wtactualf are you talking about? Yes there were a handful, but being gay was ESPECIALLY a political death sentence then. Saying this just erases the fraught past we’ve had, and doesn’t recognize the INSANE amount of progress we’ve made.

Also if you read my comment you’d recognize that argument is moot, as his current administration is what is important.

You gotta go and audit your history YouTube channels. You’re getting some wacked info.

Aww man, wish I caught that. Why didn’t the Biden administration help the LGBT community 40 years ago!? He really wasn’t a great president in 1984. /S

Look, his recent record shows the kind of administration he’s running, and what we could expect in the next 4 years. You may remember he (and Obama) said he believed marriage was between a man and a woman during the 2008 debates. Then, you may remember under the same administration, Gay marriage was federally legalized. It’s not like he’s going to go back to his pre-2008 stance in November.

Only addressing your point on what downvotes mean as a reflection of understanding:

Idk about you, but I have had posts/ comments in the past that have had massive downvotes, but I also am confident in those takes because I’ve either studied them for my degree or I’m a professional in the field and have first hand experience. Sometimes the mob is wrong.

For instance, I am a music teacher, and understand how difficult it can be when two kids come to you crying after some incident, and while trying to manage a whole classroom I have to make a judgement call on who and how to discipline within 30 seconds. When I’ve said “hey I’m sorry your teacher punished you when you were the one bullied, but they also didn’t have the resources and frankly we’re not omnipotent, this is more of an issue administration has power over” I got down voted to hell.

That said, when my takes have consistently been downvoted to hell over a period of months, I would likely take a deeper dive. My degree was political science, and I had a harsh take on FDR, and while I still feel he’s a bit overrated, I recognize I was leaning into him deeper than needed.
