Young people are people and deserving of rights, including but not limited to the vote. There is no stupid thing a young person could do with their vote that old people don’t already do and we don’t require them not to in order to keep their vote.

With 100 doors switching should give you a 99% win rate.

You’re essentially concentrating the entire thing into this one vs not this one, and when you initially chose there was a 99% chance it was not this one.

After Monty opens all the other doors, the odds that the right answer is not this one is still 99% except that now the entirety of not this one is represented by that single other door. The Grand Prize has nowhere else to be, and the odds that you picked it first is still only 1%.

So, to bring it back down, with three doors, the odds that the right answer is not this one 66%, and we end up exactly where we expected to be.

Survived eight years of Catholic school and read the Bible cover to cover. Between the flagrant hypocrisy and neglect in the school system and seeing the contradictions and bullshit in the book with my own eyes (and how nobody in the church even remotely tried to live up to the good parts), I just couldn’t anymore.

Then I read about the Bible and its history, from the Council of Nicea to the confession letters from later translators. I saw that it’s essentially a multilingual game of telephone weighted with politics, salesmanship, cultural eradication, and so forth, and it really became laughable to me that any thinking person could possibly ever take it seriously again.

It becomes easy to dismiss the rest when you realize they’re pretty much all telling the same fairytales.

How about both of you go the fuck home and let an actual progressive do some actual good for once?

They’re definitely more evil than average, the average is just also pretty fuckin’ evil.

I don’t seen anything on my end.

Hmm. I don’t know either. Maybe I need an account on your instance? I’m posting from kbin anyway so heck if I know.

Sounds like a whole lot o’ quittin’ time to me.

For people in need of a desk or table…

I’m an amateur woodworker and I could use the practice transitioning to furniture making. If you don’t mind covering materials and shipping (from New York to you), feel free to message me and we can work something out. I’m not looking to make a killing here, but getting some practice while helping somebody out would be nice.

The Abyss.

Still awesome now.

I have to imagine she had an absolute blast playing this character.

How evil do you have to be to be too evil for Walmart?

What an absolutely dogshit human being.

This should be grounds for immediate removal.

School logic.

I thought it was a person, witnessing the fall of his city.

I always thought of “Shaka, when the walls fell,” as indicating a state of shock, disbelief, or otherwise not understanding what you’re witnessing, more so than failure.

Honestly I love interpreting Tamarian meme-speak…

I had the Envy 2, the last phone I had with an actual physical keyboard.

It’s the one feature I miss the most. If I could have smartphone functionality with a physical keyboard I would be much happier.

Doing the opposite of what we should be doing is supposed to be the Republicans’ job.

I got 19. Maybe I’m the one remembering wrong.
