I guess that meme I keep seeing that's asks "did we leave all the stupid people on reddit?" Was wrong.

Y'all can't understand a few simple metaphorical images that looks like it was designed for children to understand, and are going all out in contriving obtuse reasons for why it doesn't work or isn't realistic.

Yes, of course if this was real she could walk to the other side, but it's a fucking metaphor.

He looks like Bilbo Baggins in the scene where he's overcome with desire for the ring and tries to take it from Frodo.

And there's people out there who work just as much but will never make the same amount of money. When you have the privilege to never worry about cleaning, laundry, taking care of your kids, grocery shopping, cooking, and all the numerous bullshit things that just add up to consume your time that you can wave away when you were born rich allow you to do that. They don't consume your day and energy.

Not that everyone if suddenly given that kind of time would do what he does, but I don't think they should. I think he's the type of person who looking back on his deathbed will regret only spending 2 hours a day with his family. That's really sad.

I took medical anthropology recently and this is the best answer. Helping others, even if they seem too far away to affect you in your individualist isolationist country, will actually affect your health.

If there weren't price tags in the pic I would have guessed this would be $25-$30. This type of convenient food, none the less fancier versions of convenient foods, are expensive. Go figure.

If "proper shopping" is buying cheap and healthy food then yeah OP you suck at it.

Wants to be an oncologist because his father died from blood cancer... So tragic.

They probably don't say it, but most men like women with long dark eyelashes.

I mean, from this thread it shows people kinda remember stuff from those classes, but are missing a lot. Which is understandable, people left school and didn't use that information, it doesn't make you stupid.

But then you think, oh yeah! I remember how to make electricity, I need copper and an iron rock! So you spend all this time trying to manufacture some relatively thin copper wire, iron would probably be a little easier to find, wrap it around and then you're like.... Okay what went wrong? Annnnd you can't remember you actually needed a magnet and you gotta spin it.

Then do you remember learning how to store it? Connect it to anything useful? Maybe kinda, but extrapolate the first situation to every topic ever and that's what you'd get, half baked ideas that you don't really remember the specifics of. And the specifics really actually matter lol.

She is being shamed publicly as a pervert, that's what we're all doing right now and what these news sites are doing.

Mine has been WaiFu for the last couple years.

"was looking to get an abortion for her daughter but was told the closest abortion provider was in Chicago – a drive of more than nine hours from their home in Clarksdale, Mississippi."

They could have been lied to, these people are disgusting. When taken to be seen for her strange behavior before they knew she was pregnant, in response to getting back the positive pregnancy test the nurse asked the girl "What have you been doing?". There are plenty of people in healthcare that don't care about these victims either or see them as victims at all.

Those clinics you see might not give abortions anymore too.

They're bolt ons don't get too excited.

Then why did they call them PPP loans?

What's great about this is it isn't a carefully taken image of one section of an auditorium that happened to be more empty, you can see almost the entire seating area.

And it wasn't taken before or after because there he is, up front with a microphone in the white shirt saying his spiel. Lol

Yeah, me I do, which is why I want to get rid of these forever chemicals because that's how we're going to end up with 40 year lifespans again.

We aren't getting rid of our nutritious diets and vaccines which are the two biggest factors in history that have extended average lifespans. Not Teflon pans and firefighting materials.

If I remember correctly, her labia got fused together... Super fucked up burns.

Only ~15% of Republicans are in favor of Desantis. ~6 for Ramaswamy who I've never actually heard of until now lol

I think they could be fucked either way if Trump gets nominated or not.

Taking immunology right now, it's incredibly complicated. Immune cells aren't like any other cells in our bodies, they're absolutely bonkers.

LSD you can find without chatgpt. You need a fungus from a plant which is pretty dangerous to harvest, once you're past that step though it's not too hard to synthesize I've heard? But it's also apparently a very light sensitive reaction so kind of finicky.

I've never done it but my organic chemistry professor honestly would have. We asked and he just said it was hard not no lol

You didn't watch the video did you?

Pop Culture Detective is a channel with videos that take months for him to painstakingly write and produce. They are not lazy cherry picked videos for clicks and likes. He is a very intelligent, thoughtful, thought provoking, detailed, kind, and well read man who cares a lot about the way we portray many toxic attitudes in video media, and in particular, toxic masculinity.

The writing of BBT is far more lazy and unintelligent than the videos made by Pop Culture Detective. He cares about context, and he cares about accuracy.

I've had 2 MRIs and I wasn't staying in the hospital either time but I had to put on a gown both times.

Unless they're renting a whole house or townhouse no, it's not.

Murder investigations can take years to get the person responsible on for trial even when in hindsight the evidence makes it seem obvious who did it.

This isn't a murder obviously but it is multiple messy messy cases with lots of moving delicate parts that as people who have never done a criminal investigation can't even imagine. I wouldn't want to rush into a case and end up bungling it because I didn't take my time.

I was trying to figure out what they were all looking at on the ground for way too long. Was hoping Mitch Mconnel finally collapsed and died.

Ah, you mean Firefox and ublock origin? I love free stuff!

It's worse than reddit up in here. At least the psychos calling AI CP "art" would be met with comments that would be upvoted even more, not down voted into the negatives.

She was in the background of the video, dancing while a different girl in the foreground was twerking. Did you even read the article? So just never go outside and dance ever because someone might record you dancing near someone else twerking and post it? Wtf kind of victim blaming is this? It doesn't say she applied for a christian scholarship either.

Business degrees have a curriculum designed for toddlers to make sure they have plenty of time to go to their frat parties on the weekend.

They do all that at their frat parties while spiking women's drinks.

If you read the message from the screen shot it says in the form of an "Amazon gift card".

Wine bars!

I use the ethanol and kimwipes to clean mine all the time lol they're probably a little scratchy but better than my shirt. They're just too convenient when they're everywhere.

Better than getting nothing during that time! $200/day for me would be a lot of money.

Buddy, you being "too clever" is not your issue lol

You underestimate the toxicity of PFAS chemicals and their manufacture. I work in a toxicology lab, I know a lot of people researching PFAS right now.

To make PTFE, they used to use a chemical called PFOA, which causes multiple types of cancer and other pathologies. Everyone has been exposed to it, especially since they have been found to just dump it in whatever river is convenient. They had to stop using it after getting sued, but now they just use a different chemical that had been show to have the same effects. And again, they're just dumping it into rivers knowing the fines for polluting won't be as bad as actually containing the chemical properly.

That is one PFAS chemical. There are so many others. Do not let corporations poison you for profit and then lick their boots for the privilege.

I didn't see anything in the article about her applying to a religious scholarship. Source?

I'm also cautiously optimistic. I also really want to know how he proceeds with a presidential campaign while in jail lol
