Pooping at work? That’s about the only reason to not have time to proofread.

Boss makes a dollar, I don’t see a dime, that’s why I poop on company time.

Back in the 90s, there was this guy who donated his body to science.

The scientists froze him, and then shaved off something like a millimeter at a time before polishing the ice and taking a high quality picture.

They started at the head, and slowly worked down the body. Keeping everything frozen the entire time.

Anyway what?

A lot of the “nonsensical” comes from translation issues.

You’re not a Hebrew farmer living in the middle east 2000 years ago, and the parable has been translated from ancient Hebrew to Greek, then to Latin, then finally into English.

The same goes for buddhist parables

I’ve read that some of these parables originally had clever word play.

While true, the intent behind Hanlon’s has been expressed for millennia. The Principal of Charity (which was only named in the 1950s)

Basically, never assume the worst about someone.

The problem here is when there is actual malice. But that’s when Occam’s razor comes in.

Snidely Whiplash only needs to find a bridge, preferably one over a large ravine.

Then he just has to tie the hostage to the center of the bridge. Then when the hero makes a daring rescue Snidely can blow up the bridge.

I’m waiting for that inevitable margin call. Followed by Twitter being repossessed. At that point it will probably be sold off for parts.

Some conservatives get those.

Mass shooters don’t tend to get that treatment.

It’s the bridge too far scenario. If this little shit head had joined the police department and then shot a bunch of people, the right would cheer, because that’s how things work in their mind.

But becoming a rouge element and shooting random people… No that’s just murder.

I’m sure there’s a better way to phrase it, but I’m at the tail.end of a nasty cold and can’t think straight.

I don’t see the radical feminism in any of her writings.

I see enforcement of the Status Quo.

Fuck, Harry’s main goal in life is to be a cop.

Her entire message is as follows, there’s nothing wrong with the system, just the wrong people are in charge.

Also, if you remember the culture of the mid to late 90s, it’s exactly the sort of shit that Rowling is in love with. A sort of romanticized version of the 90s, just like most conservatives want a romanticized version of the 1950s.

Rowling doesn’t believe that trans people are people.

She mostly seems to believe in the Status Quo. Specifically the Status Quo of the mid to late 90s.

She seems to view any deviation from the status quo as evil, even attempts to make the world a better place, because she doesn’t want the world to be better, she wants it to remain the same.

She’s just as much an enemy of progress as the average conservative.

The “refuses to elaborate” is simple, Mathew 25 31-46.

It quite clearly says that you are to welcome the immigrant, feed the poor, care for the sick, and visit the prisoners.

Failure to do any of that is a straight shot to hell, no matter how much you claim to love god, you actually have to do the work, or it’s off to hell.

Fun fact, Mathew 25 is the only place in the bible that references sending ordinary people to hell. All that fire and brimstone, it’s actually in that one passage. Nowhere else does hell show up for normal people, just fallen angles and shit.

New dishes are invented all the time.

But the reason who these two are so ubiquitous is simple.

General Tso’s chicken was featured on 60 minutes. The guy being interviewed showed how to make the dish with each ingredient. After that, it quickly showed up on every Chinese restaurant menu.

Orange chicken was specifically designed for American tastes by Panda Garden, which then spawned imitators.

ICE arrested a guy the other day, at his citizenship hearing. They don’t care.

Another one from the other day, ICE also arrested a guy for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, they were after someone specific, and just grabbed a guy because he was brown skinned.

Climate Change. That’s the meteor. That’s behind the dive to annex Canada and Greenland. It’s also why Peter Theil has a bunker in New Zealand.

All because there will be areas of climate stability to go with the areas rendered uninhabitable.

Russia is likely to be a climate winner. For a time anyway.

The super rich will just bounce around the globe between islands of stability.

The rest of us will die in the water wars.

Go even further back, lifting your helmet’s visor to show your face.

Naan is safe.

General Tso’s chicken on the other hand, is another 1960s invention.

Same with orange chicken.

In fact, most “Chinese” food that Americans or Brits eat was invented in the 60s or 70s.

Veritasium’s latest videos. Like the last 4 or 5.

It was one of the reasons I switched. That and my favorite mod manager is working on a Linux native version. It’s not done yet, but it’s good to play other games from time to time.

Valheim is pretty brutal, but also highly moddable.

What’s the Roche limit of the ground you’re standing on?

11 years ago… I wonder if he’ll revisit the topic with his current deep dives into relatively…

That was Rush Limbaugh, may he rot in piss.
