I also have perfect pitch, and it was actually an article posted here on HN that made me realize no, I'm not crazy, my perfect pitch has gone flat with age (I'm 29) and having not …

I'm a sculptor who specializes in math and physics visualizations, I have two Prusa printers and they are invaluable tools for me. I 3D print a lot of sculpture parts and things li…

I have a calling/passion, I'm a sculptor. And the marketing thing is what I seriously struggle with. I'm working on it and slowly pushing myself out of my comfort zone, but I disag…

I'm gonna have to disagree, I live in East Tennessee and Dolly Parton opening Dollywood right outside Great Smoky Mountain National Park created a booming tourism economy here when…

Dying jealous of your Desoxyn rx, I've been on Dexedrine my whole life (after trying everything and always crawling back to it) but my shrink would never let me try Desoxyn. Desoxy…

What makes you think it's only corporate power companies out to make a profit that are the bad guys? It's all of them, including the public utilities. I live in the Tennessee Valle…

As a woman: no, this comments section is a sexist dumpster fire of the usual "but false accusations!" variety that paints women as generally being out to get men, because... Who kn…

Could you not cut your own cards with a hobby die-cutting machine? I have some old punch cards and a Sillohouette Curio, I don't see why it couldn't work given a good sharp blade a…

Living in rural southern Appalachia and occasionally getting stuck behind the school bus dropping off the [white] kids who live in the trailer park that butts up to my property, I …

This is exactly what's happening and it's not even the first time.

Tennessee had a budding green power sector back around 2005. TVA nuked it with absurd, arbitrary restrictions on who can put up solar panels on their houses because TVA is in bed w…

Coal continues to "thrive" because it went out of its way to keep those people impoverished and unable to fight back while it bought their state governments from governors down to …

Better yet, put them to work reclaiming mine sites where possible. Rape is not too strong a word to describe mountain top removal. I don't even care if it comes out of my taxpayer …

Oh, no, the regulatory authorities are there. They're just paid off by the entities they're supposed to be regulating or don't give a shit. See: the entire state of West Virginia.

Lmao for real, this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what rural black communities in the Deep South are subjected to because they do not have the political clout necessar…

This shit has been on my mind a lot lately: all the atrocities Appalachians have been subjected to, the sewage infrastructure crisis affecting rural black communities in the Deep S…

Oh, honey, no, Appalachia absolutely suffers from the resource curse as well, to the point you often see scholars describe the region as an "internal colony." Big Coal came in, for…

Women have definitely reclaimed "bitch" to an extent.

It is prejudiced against the South. That's the last acceptable prejudice amongst the "woke," and I say this as a red state SJW. Lots of blue state liberals have no idea that the So…

That second group of states is half states in the black belt. Those state governments are bought and paid for and their people largely disenfranchised, same for much of Appalachia.…

And this is why Appalachia still cannot break its cycle of systemic rural poverty. I think people fail to realize or are just now realizing that the opioid epidemic beginning in We…

This reads like watered down incel talking points, complete with referring to women as "females."

I'm schizotypal and I do. For me, weed is how I get my brain to shut up long enough for me to get in the groove when I'm working on my artwork. My symptoms are primarily issues wit…

I'm a professional artist, where are these sources of cash I can convince to give me money instead of spending all my money from my day job on materials?

I always feel so bad for people that work at Hobby Lobby, it's just nothing but the WORST elevator music versions of Christian shit. I give thanks everyday for the Michael's we got…
