- Comment on What television series in your opinion had very good writing and character depth? 23 hours ago:
I’m gonna go old school on you, remembering some of the pioneers from an age long past.
In 70s comedy, there was MASH (deftly balancing war and humor), Barney Miller (like a gritty urban Sydney Lumet movie, turned into a sitcom) and Taxi (Danny Devito, Christopher Lloyd and Andy Kauffman, WTF?!!).
In early-80s drama, there was Hill Street Blues (once again, like a gritty urban Sydney Lumet movie, turned into a brilliant ensemble cop drama) and St. Elsewhere (another ensemble, a Boston hospital drama with a good splash of magic realism, this is where Denzel Washington got his start!).
Later in the 80s and early 90s, there was yet another groundbreaking ensemble, Northern Exposure (a quirky and sophisticated half-serious drama, with LOTS of magic realism, about a small, remote Alaska town).
Finally, I can’t go without mentioning my favorite #1 all-time GOAT series, Mad Men. I’ve watched the entire thing at least four times, it’s like reading and re-reading the proverbial “Great American Novel”.

That’s because you were looking for the upvotes.
It’s right there on the study. If you had been troll-posting looking for the downvote lulz, you would have gotten the reverse. The reverse of. The reverse of the thing of the thing of the reverse of. - Comment on Why are americans taking health advice from a former heroin addict ? 3 weeks ago:

Empowering these creatures was easily preventable, and the worst is yet to keep on coming, and coming, and coming… but you know how the average non-voting imbecile is.

The fact of the matter is that if Democrats had been elected, there would have been no invasion of Venezuela, nor Iraq two decades ago.
Let us not kid ourselves. Non-voting eligible American voters let trump take the reins again, with control of Congress and the Supreme Court, knowing he could pull shit like this at any moment, yet still sat on their lazy asses TWO Election Days, fondling their purity, bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL, and now they’re like… “C’mon Schumer… dazzle me and my most excellent purity over here!”
Elections have huge consequences, so spare us the righteous outrage. Whatever blood gets spilled, it’s also on those soft, tender, lily-white hands of non-voting deadweights.

You can go read the Wikipedia article if you want to understand “that” part… I guess, idk, go fuck yourself!!!
Some YouTube math video about lambda calculus, the asshole casually said “you can check the Wikipedia article” on an aspect that didn’t fit inside his 10-minute video. As if Wikipedia didn’t frustrate even professional mathematicians themselves, with the obtuse exposition and a thousand notations and citations.
Fortunately, there are other math educators on YouTube.
On the topic of lambda calculus, search for this title:
PLUS times PLUSIt’s wild stuff! It’s as if like math is like a shirt, and lambda calculus pulls one arm inside out, there are some weird logical seams in math when you use different tools with the same numbers.

El cuitlaccoche! Just this past summer I had blue corn tortillas wrapped around cheese and cuitlacoche, with a subtle tomato-based sauce on top, and let me tell ya, this was an umami paradise, like Mexico’s answer to the French savory crepe, but they are not fighting for supremacy, they inhabit neighboring culinary kingdoms and share similarities, but they unmistakably inhabit different lands.
