  So glad I didn’t buy a Jeep.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨imagine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, OK. That makes sense. Thank you.

  They’re often treated with hormones.

  I sort of misspoke with regard to watermelons -

  Seedless watermelons are created by crossing a regular watermelon with 22 chromosomes with one that’s been chemically treated to have 44 chromosomes. The resulting hybrid has 33 chromosomes, making it sterile and seedless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨imagine⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s treated with a chemical to keep it from making seeds.

  They know that their base hates it (not that they probably even understand what it is) and so it makes a good scapegoat.

  I heard Trump blamed this on DEI 🙄

  I mean, it wouldn’t be the first thing a fungus used the body of something else to get to where it needs to go.

  I wish I could say that I’m more shocked than I actually am.

  Mork from Ork. Nanoo nanoo. It’s what I always think of when I think of him. That and What Dreams May Come, for sure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right, I mixed it up. I feel like if it was LIFO that there would be meals that would never come out, ever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just wanted to point out that the colon is LIFO and not FIFO

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If someone murdered me, how long would it take (if ever) until they catch the murderer?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Generally speaking, there is about a 50% chance that they’ll solve it at all.

  98% of the murders that are solved will be solved within a year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Superman | Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Love you buddy, but I (mostly) disagree. There’s a few things that I think could be better, like casting, but overall I’m optimistic. It feels hopeful to me. Kind of tired of the drab, downright dirty looking costumes and looking forward to this brighter color palette. And his costume looks like the costume of maybe a hero starting out, which is how I’m taking it.

  Guess we’ll see! If I’m wrong it wouldn’t be the first time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Superman | Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks pretty good (please dont suck please don’t suck)

  Seeing Nathan Fillion with a bowl cut really throws me off. I think he would have been a better Hal Jordan.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You have 8 seconds.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The modern mind is in complete disarray. Knowledge has stretched itself to the point where neither the world nor our intelligence can find any foot-hold. It is a fact that we are suffering from nihilism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where does the music go?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, and while the king was looking down

  The jester stole his thorny crown

  The courtroom was adjourned

  No verdict was returned

  And while Lenin read a book on Marx

  A quartet practiced in the park

  And we sang dirges in the dark

  The day the music died

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨👣👣👣⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a real bummer interviewing these external applicants that you know won’t get the job. Like I wish I could just let them know, but we’re required to go through the entire interview process.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is martial arts really that useful?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My two cents having practiced several.

  Almost all of them are useful in that they are a form of physical activity. They can keep you in good shape, and can also help you develop discipline.

  Many are more art than practical. Arts like krav maga or kali are more geared towards practical use (self defense).

  There is also a thing you can generally think of as “energy” that arts may have that often trend to make them not very practical against arts outside of themselves. For example, if a wing chun practitioner attempts to trap with you, and you’re a boxer, it just doesn’t work. It’s somewhat about range, but also the general “feel” of the art as well. JKD attempts to deal with this by teaching different arts that can be used within different ranges.

  My one instructor also likened martial arts to technology, saying that they must evolve over time or just end up becoming ineffective for self defense.

  The best thing to do in a situation, if you can, is to just escape. Your wallet is not worth your life.

  60mph/97kmh is not that fast, though. 90mph/157kmh is pretty fast.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Burning Up⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the reason people are saying that Fahrenheit “feels” right is because we use a base 10 number system. 1-10 and 0%-100% feel right to us because of this. If you somehow knew nothing about each temperature unit, but you did know base 10, I feel like Fahrenheit would be more intuitive. Obviously if you grew up with Celsius that would feel normal.

  Disclaimer: I feel like the US needs to adopt metric already. It’s so much better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Robert Downey Jr returns to Marvel as Doctor Doom⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d love for the first Dr. Doom in the MCU to just be the Victor Von Doom we know from the comics. After that, sure, bring on the alternate reality versions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this just how it’s gonna be till Election Day?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a Pixel. I did not realize how bad this gets until work made me take an iPhone as my work phone. Holy hell. No amount of “Delete and report as junk” helps.
