Reply to My great aunt is selling her house, the one I grew up in. It’s falling apart and she has to move. Today is a very hard, sad day for me. I found this picture of me in the front yard with our old mustang in the 90s. I’m in tears. by Life_Roll8667

I hated my home during my childhood. I am glad you have those memories and love. That pain we feel when something emotionally hurts is beautiful in a way. If it hurts that much, must have felt just as wonderful. It's the contrast, experience I've learned to appreciate. I hope any of that is helpful to you. Y'all take care.

Reply to comment by althetoolman in ‘Which sites should be saved, and which sites should be allowed to decay?’ — Climate change is accelerating, amplifying existing risks and creating new ones, the consequences of which could be devastating for the global archaeological record by marketrent

It's hard for us to tell. We know human history is about a million years old. Two hundred thousand years ago, there were several humoid species living at the same time. The more underwater, the more we can't fully study as it were on land. There is going to be a lot underwater.

Would love to see Harriet Tubman on currency. A slave, Union spy, the only woman to lead daring raids that set fires to plantations and free approximately 750 slaves. All while navigating a river mined by the Confederacy and mapped by Ms. Tubman. She couldn't read nor write and yet outperform every general north or south.

There is absolutely no way you can guarantee your data's safety when it's constantly accessible online. I hear the arguments, but at the end of the day it is an absolute security risk that can be avoided for the average person at home. Work can do as it like, but you're choices should be more well informed.

Reply to comment by monkeypox_69 in TIL JP Morgan bailed out banks in 1907 but a severe recession occured anyway. Nelson Aldrich, a powerful senator with close ties to Morgan, led a mission to Europe in 1908 to study the workings of the central banks in England, France and Germany. The Federal Reserve was created a short time later by mankls3

I agree, but the people had no choice. A private banking system was previously defeated, but they kept trying. It's money...forever. as the country exists anyway.
