Agreed, we just have to move universe escape to the top of our priorities. Then immortality. Then dementia (getting dementia, that is).

Poe’s Law: originating from the term "Poorly Constrained* (cf: Poe Ly) which is a technical term used in physics, engineering, and mathematics for a system where there are more variables than available data points, making a single definitive solution impossible. 😏

Yeah, unfortunately you can get a DWI for pulling over and napping in your car on the side of the road because you didn’t feel safe driving. Because they argue how else did you get there if not by driving. And I suppose no one sober would choose to start drinking on the side of the road in a car.
A good challenge to this might be to use an acceptable BAC testing model right out of the box to record your BAC of 0.00, driving to the side of a road police travel by, retesting BAC of 0.00, removing alcohol from trunk, drinking and testing your BAC until an officer arrests you, then using the video and data for visual aids in the jury trial in your defense.
You’ll likely still get some fine for being considered to have wasted the states’ time & money, and may even lose if you’re unattractive and/or arbitrarily considered a public nuissance. But you’d likely be among the most cited case law for cases involving the dumbest college kids (e.g. me, based on how much time I’ve spent on this).

- Comment on English has too many words for animals 5 days ago:
Apes evolved from dry-nosed monkeys, so despite the popular wisdom, according to monophyly we are monkeys. Similarly humans are fish. The confusion arises because most people still group species by common characteristics (a grade) rather than common descent (a clade). Also known as Linnean vs phylogenetics.

I’ve used nicotine products intended to wean people off cigs, like the patches or lozenges when caffeine’s not cutting it. But cigs, and even vaping for that matter, really do require an RFK Jr level of health understanding.

The 15 upvoters who preceded me seem to have firmly grasped this definition. For the rest of us:
Bimbofication is a practice, kink, or fetish that involves role-playing and transforming oneself into a stereotypical portrayal of a “bimbo,” characterized by exaggerated femininity, playful behavior, and a carefree attitude. It emphasizes empowerment and self-expression, allowing individuals to embrace their sexuality and challenge societal norms.

Deleuze & Guattari would argue step-fantasies are a byproduct of modern psychology’s foundation of “sanity” being founded on Oedipalism.
