01/25 - Fungi Friday!

I keep buying books and never reading them.. ( Damn you Youtube and PUBG mobile) Never really considered the ethical concern of purchasing physical books but I have always preferred physical books (and the best hardcover or collectors editions) so when I buy my first castle I will have some material on hand to stock my library in my study.

My last Book purchase I haven't opened yet

 

I got it free from Origin and never played it. I got super bored from Destiny 1. I was hoping 2 would be better, but based on the reviews, meh. I dont need another grind in my life.

 

Received an email from the IRB regarding yesterday's rejected Terence HITs -

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. I understand that this is very upsetting. I have contacted the lead investigator with a request to reverse the rejection. I will be in touch as soon as I hear back from him.

Fingers crossed.

 

Nice the email I emailed got Terrance directly and he told me to pretty much fuck off in nice terms.

 

In honor of fungi Friday





Book Overview
Where did God come from? What do the bible stories really tell us? Who or what was Jesus Christ? This book challenges everything we think we know about the nature of religion. The ancient fertility cult at the heart of Christianity The living power of cultic rites and symbols The sacred mushroom as the emblem and embodiment of divinity The secret meaning of biblical myths The language of religion that links us to our ancestors The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross sets out John Allegro's quest through a family tree of languages to find the truth about where Christianity came from."

My cat is on a diet Since his health scare last month, He is strongly protesting the situation this morning.

 

LOL. Yours was BS. I once got the "I already deleted the data and there's nothing I can do," and I nearly overturned my desk.

 

Trust me I am a very calm person but I about lost my shit. My wife had to ask me what I was yelling at.

Rejected!
Requester Feedback: "We asked you to pick only the first and last options of the sports questions to ensure that respondents were reading the question instead of speeding. Unfortunately, you picked the incorrect options."​

Pros:
Well paid, in theory

Cons:
Unfair rejection over checking the top most choice and the bottom choice. I know for a fact that I did this since it was the only HIT the entire day asking me to fill out a page like this. The requester also has rejected many others for the same reason. I've emailed the requester to see if he/she will reverse it. I'll update this if they ever respond. Until then avoid them.

I guess I'm going to email again then.

 

what was the email addy? i'll send one in.

 

Mob mentality works... Atleast when you screw this many people over. Back in the infancy days of turking we'd be shit out of luck.

 

this is the site for the university of the Terence HIT

http://earlham.edu/academics/collaborative-research/institutional-review-board/

i wasn't emailed back, but I'm messaging the IRB in a moment as well since I know he has replied to some already

 

I got a response back from IRB also. Seems like they actually care.

 

I see Glen Zuska is out posting his music project HIT's again. If you somehow have missed it don't do them! He will reject you as he has most everyone else
