Free Palestine. We can build a world where no one has to suffer. The lesser evil is still evil. He/Him.

Today I learned the average person has 8 different sexual partners in their lifetime. Today I also learned that I'm a whore.
Two panel comic. First panel: a cartoon man in a suit and tie looks blankly out of the frame. Second panel: the cartoon man walks out of the frame muttering "Jesus fuckin' Christ..."
Out of ten men, one makes a sexual joke at a woman, two laugh, three fake a chuckle to fit in, and four stay silent., None of them speak up. Later, nine of them still believe they're the "good guys" But from the woman's perspective, the laughter, the silence, the looking away, it all creates the same environment. So when women say "most men are the same." this is what they mean. Not that every man harasses women, but that most men help protect the system that does.
One of the most dangerous ideas that has come about in the last 3 years is that all points of view are equally vaid, and that Average Citizen (you) are just as equipped to judge which have merit as anyone else. "Hear all sides, and judge for yourself" No. I do not condone the death of Expertise, and neither should you. I am an expert in very, very few things. But in those areas, my expertise is hard earned through study, work, experience and aptitude. None of it comes from attending Google University. But unless you are an expert in exactly the same areas, your opinion is not just as valid as mine. It's not. And my opinion is not as valid as experts in other fields. That is why they are the experts. So if our leading epidemiologists largely agree that "A" is correct, and a couple of discredited doctors make a video that says "B" is correct, our response should not be "I'll listen to both and decide which makes sense to me." Confirmation bias exists, and only fools think they are free of it. To paraphrase Aasimov, your ignorance is not the same as their experience. Genuinely smart people look for answers from people who are smarter than themselves. Only ignorant people believe their guess is as good as anyone else's.
I would honestly put this on hold indefinitely, and wait until the air clears. It is going to be dangerous to be outside for extended periods for a bit yet.

Four panel comic. First panel: Jesus stands on a hill speaking to a crowd "Be kind to everyone!" Panel two: Some people in the crowd speak up "Wait, even Gary?" "Yeah, Gary's the worst". Panel three: Jesus speaks again. "Look, we've been through this. Yes, be kind to Gary as well.". Panel four" Gary speaks up "Ha! Suck it losers!". Jesus responds. "Not now, Gary".
Rapist Connor Mcgregor blew out his knee tonight during a fight. Unfortunately, he'll survive.
You know why politics pisses me off? Because people will either defend or condemn identical behaviour based on the person in question. It makes hypocrites of every day people, and none of us even realize we're doing it.

valuable. But there are a lot of teams out there without a true 1D, and we are one of them. We haven't had one forever, and none as good as Werenski since maybe Salming?

"If Trump was a Democrat would you still hate him?" Trump WAS a Democrat, and YES I hated him them too, you soup fork. No one hates Trump because he's a Republican, we hate him because he's a shitty human being - which was evident long before his time in politics.

Mark Zaid, Esq ‪@markzaidesq.bsky.social‬ Follow We are witnessing MAGA equivalent of destruction of Democratic Party through election of progressive Socialists. If you think this ends well for country, I believe you're sadly mistaken. Extremism on one side simply fuels opposite growth on other side. We need moderates.

A Calvin and Hobbes comic from 1992 referred to the start of the universe as the Horrendous Space Kablooie, saying that "The Big Bang" was too boring. The term Horrendous Space Kablooie (or HSK) has since become popular among scientists, and has been used in books and university courses.

James Mirtle on Leaf Report on Darren Raddysh: "Raddysh always had interest in Toronto, the question was, was it going to go to July 1 with a bidding war. Turns out that Raddysh really wanted to come here and didn't want to wait for July 1, and just wanted to get it done"
In practice, at the national level, a very small number of marriages to persons under the age of 15 were recorded each year until the late 1990s and to persons of age 15 until the early 2010s. For historical continuity, the first age group in the marriage data tables is labelled "Under 20 years" rather than "15 to 19 years" or "16 to 19 years" as would be more precise in recent years.
