  Crows can use tools and won’t need vehicles to travel. Dolphins don’t stand a chance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How much progress have we made on climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So we’ll have green energy but capitalism will be as strong as ever. A solar dystopia. At least there will be a future for us to be shadowrunners in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Are Conservatives More Susceptible to Believing Lies?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My parents are those college educated conservatives and their mental gymnastics are Olympic level. They also donate to charities and do volunteer work like meals on wheels. They don’t make any sense to me.

  Oh wow, I never thought of it that way!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. Employee engagement sinks to 10-year low⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How did you get into contract work? I’d love to be able to work when I need/want the money but have the option to step away for a while. I’ve been burned by too many “family” like workplaces

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do rhymes make sense to deaf people?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It also doesn’t help that spellings started to standardize at the same time the great vowel shift was happening

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hubris⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s funny that this distinction needs to be made every time biscuits are mentioned in the post. There were some very confused non-Americans in the comments of a biscuits and gravy meme the other day

  I still have to mentally sing the alphabet song to double check I got the order right.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A ton of bollocks, more like⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I bet Reagan made “soccer”, the British slang for association football, popular among Americans in his youth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't forget Big 3⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m the opposite for the same reasons. I just like the phone on the right since it’s easier to reach with my main hand. Although, reaching across my body for keys can be awkward when carrying groceries and stuff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Même] Which movie was this for you?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought Battlefield Earth had a cool concept when I was like 13. I watched it again a few years ago and it’s hilariously bad. 90% of the movie is Dutch angles

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wednesday it is, my dudes.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oddly enough croak is likely also onomatopoeia (imitative)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is voting before the deadline in US elections referred to as 'early voting'?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I found it to surprisingly easy to read. I knew about the characters beforehand but never saw them used extensively in words I understand. Let’s bring ðem back

  It has to be if your name is on it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Asian Beauty⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Now the day I was born The nurses all gathered 'round And they gazed in wide wonder At the horror they had found The head nurse spoke up Said, “Leave this one for dead” She could tell right away That my bones were bad

  My bones are bad My bones are bad B-B-B-B-Bad B-B-B-B-Bad B-B-B-B-Bad

  My bones are bad

  I wouldn’t want to hunt anymore either if I survived the brutality of male lion adolescence

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phew⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nevermind the bolder, what is going on with random boxes on the ceiling? Did the architect forget to include the ductwork in their design or something?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to connect with a coworker⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I the like the Han dynasty because it was run by a sole smuggler

  Did you have the light switch outside the bathroom too? That way your friends can make you poop in the dark

  Arise now, arise, Riders of Théoden! Dire deeds awake: dark is it eastward. Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded! Forth Eorlingas! Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!

  Except we won’t have the sentient or even good AI

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is an anthropologist⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of the comments are talking about writing being the game changer but it took generations of selective breeding crops and livestock to make them viable for domestication. We haven’t found any evidence of domestication prior to about 12k years ago in archeology or genetics. There were many civilizations who built large cities and never needed a writing system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And they don't fold well either⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I usually sleep on my back but if I sleep on my side I always use a pillow. I have a pretty big head so if I’m lying flat with no pillow my neck is straight and not bending backwards
