You took Psychology, etc because that's what a Liberal Arts program does. The goal is to expose you to a variety of subjects to make you a 'well rounded' individual with a broad and basic knowledge of a lot of things. We can debate whether the liberal arts model works for the modern day, but you weren't taught things for no reason. It is completely fair to feel these classes had no bearing on what you wanted to do certainly one of the biggest debates in higher ed is the utility of the liberal arts model in the modern day. Designed centuries ago so graduates would have a broad base of knowledge to make them flexible and well rounded; able to converse or make informed decisions on a large number of topics followed by a lot of specific knowledge on their preferred subject of expertise which would be applicable to a particular career. However college degrees were never intended to be a 'gate keeper' to employment like modern society has made them, thus leading to the natural debate as to whether colleges and universities should change their focus to one more in line with what business and industries expect their employees to do rather than the well-rounded individual approach. Colleges weren't originally supposed to act like a business, although a lot of decisions through the years have forced them to act more and more as one creating its own level of problems. Every liberal arts college will do this. Its what a liberal arts degree means. Even engineering schools, although most of them that I'm familiar with will make the liberal arts portion as small as their governing and accrediting bodies will let them get away with.

There's also a deficit of skills trade workers across the nation at the moment. Unfortunately I think schools and colleges are doing a poor job of actually advising students before they ever enroll in a college about their options to meet their goals. Unfortunately, the general incentives from state funding to college and universities is still enrollment. One thing that frustrated me when I worked in advising was seeing students on their way out of college, having struggled for some reason or another, and in talking with them finding out their goal was to get two years of classes and a degree and get a job. The school was 90% two year transfer programs to complete a bs/ba, not 2 year terminal degree programs leading to a job. The vast majority of students in this situation should have been in a trade school, got the trade degree, got a job and then once their financial situation was stable, decide whether pursuing a further degree was worth it. But instead they're looking at no longer being eligible for financial aid to go to the trade school and some are looking at paying back pricey loans with no way to do it (and often times, it'll take whatever housing they're at with them).

I thought I was the only user here who didn't like UP or WALL-E... Anyhow, saw Glass. I got parts of where it was veering off to from clues in the movie, but not every piece. I liked it a lot even though it wasn't what I initially thought it'd be. I also liked how it addresses one of the lingering questions from UNBREAKABLE

It happens. I was trying be funny, hence the

I assume its a reference to the ad that Proctor and Gamble did (who now own's Gillette) regarding "toxic masculinity". https://www.npr.org/2019/01/17/685976624/backlash-erupts-after-gillette-launches-a-new-metoo-inspired-ad-campaign

It looked more interesting when I posted it literally three posts above yours.

Personally I thought The Gifted squandered it's potential. And hopefully we'll get The New Mutants movie they shot (supposed to come out Aug 2, iirc)

Yeah, the lesson is don't shell out a bunch of money to use works that are still within copyright. I like how hiring a composer to make music off of John William's score is somehow seen as not infringing on the copyright to John Williams score. Basic misunderstanding of copyright, as that'd be a derivative work.

Anyway, he also appear in Washington in the first movie. So his colleagues should figure it out easily. Spider-Man also appeared at the Leipzig/Halle Airport while Peter Parker was allegedly hanging out with Tony Stark in New York after winning a grant from a Stark Foundation.

I'd be interested in knowing what you think of that high pressure air duster.

I don't get it.

From what I understand...

In the classic universe, Mysterio created technology to create illusions. So anything you see in the trailer might be an illusion.

College students eat fast food. Film at 11.

I think its borrowed from late Latin. "C" represents /k/ when before a, o, u and consonants. Should be soft "c" /s/ before e, i, y. Some variation exists due to borrowing from French (UK sceptic). K is then used to show a /k/ sound before e, i and y. K is usually used at the end of words (or ck) for /k/, with a few exceptions (like 'arc').

Have you submitted this issue to support@obsidian.net?

If you ask them, the answer is yes. Even the porn industry was created by aliens. It's the watch it to be entertained, see what can be great visuals of rather obscure parts of the world, want to scream out that a hypothesis is not proof, and ponder on if they just have a massive inferiority complex because humanity has apparently achieved nothing on its own, merely by the aid of something else. I also like watching this show, but @Raithe you hit it right on the head. Massive inferiority complex. The aliens are everything, we are nothing. And the cliche subtext: they are going to save us from our own stupidity. I always wonder, if we couldn't have evolved naturally and someone else had to have created us, then why not the same for the aliens? So who created them? Older and more advanced aliens?

Yeah, I'd never heard that one either and suspect it wrong, but didn't try to research it.

I knew Martin "Six Million Dollar Man" Caidin had written some military history / WWII books, but wasn't familiar with that one (apparently largely based on interviews Sakai did with journalist Saito)

I'd be suspicious of the "information" found here, and for information found on the twitter site it references as there's no real 'fact checking' done. For example slang does not mean "short language", its actual etymology is unknown (some posit a Scandinavian origin, while OED disputes this) and Tag's etymology is from Scottish 'tig' which itself probably comes from Middle English 'tek' for touch or tap. Glancing through the linked twitter page I see some other errors like the etymology of the brand name Adidas (its from the founders name, Adi Dasseler not "All Day I Dream About Sports"). While scalp does have a mnemonic that makes it easy to remember, its etymology is from Middle English Skalp or Scalpe, neither of which match the mnemonic And finally while the bear that Winnie the Pooh is partially named for was female (she was named for the city of Winnepeg), Winnie the Pooh is referred to in the books as "he".

While I do want to see this, I'd like it if this series does so well that someone finally releases the 1978-78 series PROJECT U.F.O. based on the same infestigations too.

HBO isn't a guarantee of quality anymore but Jeremy Irons is? Mind you, I'm saying this as a Jeremy Irons fan.
