I hate this brand of pseudo-intellectualism.
Adversity doesn’t mean you’re right. Lack of adversity doesn’t mean you’re wrong. It just means some people agree with you and some people disagree. That’s it.
Why are you reading this? Go do something worthwhile.

There are a billion ways that people are suffering. You can talk about any of them. Inventing new ones doesn’t mean you care. It means the opposite.
No, no, the thought is “They’re just a liberal crisis actor trying to take away the one thing that makes me feel cool and powerful because my life is a heap of dogshit,” then they pray for you to go to hell. Easy!
Women are not good for the new photo of the world around you and the world is the most beautiful thing in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world and in the world.
Gottem?
Planning is only as good as the planner. Sometimes you still end up giving a press conference at the wrong Four Seasons.
I don’t they were holding back. Hitler isn’t particularly known for his restraint. It was just more rudimentary technology. There were only around 2000ish planes on either side, and they weren’t committing everything every day. The planes were smaller, the bombs weren’t as destructive, and targeting was pretty basic. They absolutely did tons of damage, but it took months.
Carrying out a similar engagement today would level a city in hours, maybe days.

One of my favorite books is called Inherit the Stars.
Mankind is starting to reach out into the solar system, but finds a man on the moon entombed in a space suit, and he’s been dead for 50,000 years.
It’d make a pretty good movie, 2 hours tops.
It does one of my favorite things, by strongly blending two genres: mystery, and sci-fi. A sci-fi show, movie, or book that’s purely sci-fi is rarely good. Same goes for fantasy. Season 1 of Game of Thrones is good because it’s primarily a mystery/drama story in a fantasy setting. A New Hope is great because it’s a western, coming-of-age story in a sci-fi setting. Rebel Moon is garbage (for many reasons) because it’s pure sci-fi schlock with no nuance.
Yeah, but we sure kept Saddam from nuking anyone with his many, many WMDs.
I have a son that loves ballet. He’s 3 and loves to dance. I could beat him, because ballet is arbitrarily "girly, " or I could encourage him to do things he loves.
I am much more interested in him being a kind, well-rounded person than I am interested in him being someone else’s stereotype of a man.
I kind of still dislike some of the even more nuanced discussion around gender because it’s goal can still be to categorize. More precisely, but still occasionally hurtful. I would love for everyone to be happy as they are, undefined by anyone but themselves. I’ve known people who came through so many awful experiences, and some found comfort in the group acceptance of a new gender definition, but the ones I know who are happiest eventually shrug that off entirely and find full self-acceptance. It’s so hard to do, and not everyone can, but gender acceptance is only a stepping stone in the path to self-acceptance.
Poster shows the metric system giving Uncle Sam giant balls of steel?

Motion is lotion?
Everyone gets arthritic enough to figure it out eventually. Anyone who doesn’t understand is still young enough that getting a decent night’s sleep fixes all aches and pains.
Intel has been on the i3, i5, i7 naming scheme for a while though. I think the oldest ones are probably ~15 years old at this point.
I don’t know. I bet it has been pretty effective, but I also don’t think I’d trust any data I’d see from Google.
But, their goal isn’t to get you or me to watch ads. Hell will freeze over before I spend 30s watching an ad for a video that’s barely double that. Their goal is to target the people we’ve installed ad blockers for: friends, parents, siblings, in-laws.
I’m not going to watch ads, and I sure as hell am not going to click on anything, but my mother in law does now. My mom does too. They now feel like an ad blocker is “too much hassle,” so Google won that fight. I don’t know if new people are installing, updating, or changing ad blockers enough to offset right now.
Uh, last I checked, Britannia rules the waves, not the Falklands. Checkmate, Margaret.
Eh, but you can pay most 9 year olds to say anything, even dumb stuff, just like the elongated muskrat. You just have to give them cash.
Easy. School isn’t for school. It’s a daycare with its hours offset from the working day, skewing early so parents can get their kids there before work. Kids spend 2 hours on a bus and 7 hours in a classroom every day because both of their parents have to work.
I can’t believe that Apple would do this. It’s so not like them to cripple great machines with one horrendous bottleneck. Like could you imagine if they released an iMac in 2020 that they sold until the release of the M1 iMac that had a 1TB hard drive in it as a boot device? That’d be insane.
Yeah, there’s a lot of contradiction and apologetics when it comes to Bush. He can’t be an evil, cunning, crafty, bumbling ignoramus, all at once. He’s definitely an idiot who knowingly employed some evil people. In my mind, that makes him pretty awful, but some people feel differently for some reason.
