Pog as slang comes from the twitch emote, taken from a video with pogs in them. What is a pog? A small cap from a juice drink that is traded and used in games by 90s kids. The juice drink was called POG, short for passion fruit orange guava. Passion fruit was named after its flower, the passion flower. Passion flowers were called "flower of the five wounds" in Portuguese, eventually being translated as passion fruit by the English in reference to the passion of Jesus, aka his last moments alive before being crucified.

You have to understand the part that’s so iconic about this is this isn’t a clip of him winning the tournament this of a clip of him coming in fourth

bring back the habits that made you happy as a child. there’s no reason you should ever have to give up harmless things that bring you joy. you don’t have to age out of having fun. finger paint. write mediocre fanfiction and questionable poetry. put chocolate chips in your waffles. sing in the bath, and while working in the yard, and while washing your hands. hammer tunelessly on a piano. spin in circles until you fall down. climb a tree. just because you’re now in charge of your life doesn’t mean you’re expected to give up on the things that make life feel worth living

If I could impart one thing to a young adult - it would be this. This is literally the secret to being okay your entire life.

This is a callout post for the TSA agent who was incredibly thoughtful and concerned about me flying across the country all alone without an adult and wanted to make sure I knew how to go through security and felt safe and comfortable and explained that, as per the signs, children under 12 can keep their shoes on, and directed me specifically to another agent to help me so I wouldn’t be overwhelmed or afraid.

You were super sweet and kind, and the look on your face when I handed you my driver’s license and you realized I was 25 was priceless.

being an adult is just saying to yourself “this is the weekend i’ll clean my [x]” and then proceeding to not do that because it’s the weekend and you deserve to relax, goddamnit

Some said they didn't know their thermostats were being accessed from afar until it was almost 80 degrees inside their homes.

Without anyone touching it, they said their thermostat was changed while they were sleeping, making their home unbearably hot.

“Was my daughter at the point of overheating?” English said. “She’s 3 months old. They dehydrate very quickly.”

His wife received an alert on her phone soon after that. The family said their thermostat had been changed remotely, raising the temperature of their home during a three-hour “energy saving event.”

The family’s smart thermostat was installed a few years ago as part of a new home security package. Many smart thermostats can be enrolled in a program called “Smart Savers Texas.” It’s operated by a company called EnergyHub.

The agreement states that in exchange for an entry into sweepstakes, electric customers allow them to control their thermostats during periods of high energy demand. EnergyHub’s list of its clients include TXU Energy, CenterPoint and ERCOT.

I’m reminded of a discussion I had in an engineering class about clean energy technology back in grad school.

They were saying “oh wouldn’t it be cool to have a smart energy grid with surge pricing, to spread out the load on the grid”

And I’m like “no”

And they’re like “WHAT”

And they didn’t seem to get that poor people who absolutely can’t afford surge pricing, and also would be in danger during a heat wave, exist

And deserve to live

They’re like “but it would be GOOD for poor people because they’d be able to lower their energy usage at peak hours and save money overall”

But like

That’s not how being poor works?

Poor people don’t have as much control over their schedules as non-poor people! They can’t just cook their dinner two hours later because electricity is too expensive right now, they just worked a twelve hour shift and need to get to bed!

Poor people are more likely to be chronically ill and really not able to “tough it out” during surge pricing times!

The whole “if we all make little sacrifices here and there, we can Help Save The Earth™” thing is making some big assumptions about what sacrifices are possible to make, and enforcing it with pricing doesn’t actually help the environment, it just hurts the poor

I know this is a tangent and not what the above post is actually about but it’s a similar kind of thing

“spread out the load” does not work in a society where systemic inequality exists
