Sometimes I wish the earth did that
Interesting question.
You’d have to cancel out the sideway movement of the earth, and it’s going roughly 85000km an hour.
Once you cancel that out, you’ll simply fall down to the sun. But you’d need a very powerful rocket. It’s way easier to get to mars, as comparison.
It’s more realistic to do gravity assists from venus and other bodies, and in that case it’d take years. Just a rough guesstimate would be 10 years I guess? But maybe you’d have to even sling past jupiter or something to really slow down, so then it might be decades.
Dang, we’d have to wear ear protection all day!
Hmm, considering your religious upbringing you might want to try some absurdist literature to break the mold.
These are accessible too, as you’re not used to reading yet.
I can also recommend subscribing to a monthly magazine and making a point to read it from cover to cover. That way your skills will improve. You can also buy a whole stack of old national geographics cheaply. This will expand your horizons.
Fortran was supposed to replace computers (people). Then the computers became Fortran coders.
If you can manage to get some space somewhere or get people to contribute space, you could have artists in residence. Often artists want to get away and just have a chill place to focus for while, like a week. They can show what they made in a small personal exposition.
Unfortunately extremely common
Can you share some?
Inability to see things from different perspectives. Assuming any perspective you talk about is your own personal belief.

I’m saving this one for later!
Well, plenty of reactions already.
So, I had a noisy neighbor. I called the cops. They come over, come into my home. Now I had all these tiny threads hanging down in my living room door, not sure what it’s called. Dude officer gets all tangled up with his badge and shoulder things. I totally kept my straight face but his dudette partner couldn’t keep hers. 😭
But ya, in the US I’d definitely be careful based on what area you’re in. And also don’t be afraid to read up on law and know what’s what. I imagine there’s good areas too.
Hey can you give me some starter pointers? I’m going on a bike trip and will also hike in nature and don’t have any first aid training.
As a Dutch citizen I just want to kick the shit out of this post and all it stands for. Seriously your system is broken. Period.
You have the best of both worlds, what is there to ever be angry about?
So, if I understand you correctly, there’s a non-trivial correlation between drinking beer, shitting, and programming?
I’m tired of not feeling safe around men. It’s just a few who ruin it for everyone else! Maybe our society doesn’t really know any more what a man is, but could it be one of those people? It just goes on and on.
It’s terrible feeling helpless
You sound like a modern shaman
