My favorite game is Noita. Factorio is probably in my top 5. Pray for my free time, fellow lemmings.

I think you touched on why. Ethnic identity is somewhat arbitrary, and tied up with national / cultural identity. In the US, despite our xenophobic phases most of us culturally identify as a nation of immigrants. So in terms of ethnicity, we’re more concerned with where our lineage existed before arriving in the United States, rather than how long it’s existed in the United States. There’s a bit of a hierarchy of “who’s family has existed in the US the longest”, but all of those claims are still anchored by which nations their ancestors came from.
There’s also the fact that American genetics haven’t been sedentary long enough - And probably never will be - For us to mix evenly enough to develop a unified physical appearance. Ethnicity is of course not just skin deep, but ethnic identity and identification often uses it as shorthand, and there is as far as I know no stereotypical American ethnic appearance.

Interesting, I’m autistic and what frustrates me here is that the question specifically asks you to posit “How is it possible” and the teacher insists that you’re supposed to just say it’s not.
- Comment on Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit 4 weeks ago:
How is that possible?
“False”

The question literally says “Marty ate more pizza”. It’s a foundational fact that you’re given as a part of the problem. If the answer was the say “Actually, no he didn’t” then you might as well answer “No, he actually at 1/6 of his pizza”.

I’m a middle-aged cyclist (though I got into it around 20) who eschews lycra. I hate the look, the fit, and the feel. I bike in vans slip-on, running shorts, and t-shirts. At most I’ll wear chamois under the shorts. No clips for me either, flats with the peg screws forever. 90% road cyclist btw, very little mountain biking. Oh and no fitness tracker / GPS as of a few years ago. I just need as little friction as possible between being not on the bike and being on the bike. For me it translates to more fun and many more miles.

So you’re making an arbitrary value judgment about which legal violations are acceptable and which aren’t. That’s fine to do, for yourself. But you’re applying them onto others.
It would be one thing to debate someone about when it is and isn’t OK to break the law, but you’re not doing that. You’re just implying that someone else is wrong because they don’t share the exact same illegalist framework as you. And you’re resting your entire point upon that supposition.
I dunno bud, if you’re OK with people speeding to pass, maybe relax about people doing the speed limit in the left lane instead of insisting that it’s your way or the highway. Pun intended.

It’s lame that you ask me that instead of asking it to the policing user I was replying to in parody.

So you’re the tailgating truck driver in this meme?

Rude, safe, who’s to say.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
I find that people driving in the middle when the right is clear are merely anticipating an upcoming on/off ramp where things can get bunched up.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
“Never be the fastest car on the highway” is a pretty good rule for avoiding state troopers.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
But for real, if someone is tailgating you at speed the right move really is to ease down slowly. Because if you have to stop quickly at speed, they’re going to catastrophically rear end you. Slowing down steadily lowers the stakes and may induce them to pass you and harass someone else.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
Are you implying that you break the speed limit just to pass people?
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
10 MPH over the signed limit on the highway is very typical here in the US. And yeah it’s not great, lots of car fatalities here.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
Exactly. There’s a difference between ideal operation and practical reality. In reality, three-lane highways induce three lanes full of cars. And if I’m going 80 in a 60 in the left lane, the guy behind me going 90 can fucking relax. Likewise I’m not getting bent out of shape by the guy in front of me going 80.

Probably Brooklyn Bowl. It’s a combo bowling alley / mid-sized music venue in Brooklyn NY that opened a second location in Vegas a while back, because Brooklyn-branded things are apparently a big attraction for foreign tourists in the US.

Vans Slip-On Pros are basically the sharks of the shoe world: They hit optimal design a very long time ago, have barely changed since, and continue to remain one of the most effective species out there.

The droopy crotch on most joggers is really annoying for me. I like a more loose fit around the thighs but not MC Hammer levels of loose.
