I was looking for some eyebleach earlier and was disappointed to see how quiet all of the eyebleach communities are.

Most of my life is pretty busy. When I have a moment where I have nothing to do, I try to enjoy it instead of wishing it away.

Having the time to do nothing is underappreciated.

I'd never heard of the monkey banana ladder experiment before. At the end of the article it said that that experiment has never actually been done. When searching further, it seems like this is an often cited hypothetical experiment. I found mention of a similar study that actually happened that allegedly had different results but the details seem to be behind a paywall.

I've not seen the wire, but now I'm afraid if I do it will make me sad.

I realized the dangers involved. That is why I never became a police officer myself.

... actually the reason is because I was too old by the time I had the idea to try, but realistically I had talked myself out of it before I knew that.

I have had the thought before that the police problem could be improved if decent human beings joined the force and tried to change it from the inside out. I think it could make a difference but I don't think many people consider it because it feels like joining the wrong team.

Make sure you also test it while drunk or heavily drugged up.

I know my comment was low effort. I appreciate the supportive response anyway, even if it wasn't that well deserved.

Thank you.

Who?

I'd be doing this right now, but the rest of the family is sleeping.

This is true. Although, every once in a while I'll convince the wife unit to go out and we both usually end the night with a sense of regret and a feeling that we both would have preferred to have just stayed home.
