So long as the majority left behind in the state are GOP voters, they couldn't care less about how many people get harmed or die from their policies ...

E: spelling

Don’t care - vote. 🗳️

It's the niche topics that need more activity. I love science - mostly space/physics - and it's mostly a ghost town. Once the unique corners grow their activity, it's going to be great.

I want and have wanted an EV since 2013.....can't afford one. So to be clear, it's not a matter of wanting, it's a matter of making an affordable one.

I love science, like experimentally observed science or at least practical theoretical science, but Youtube tries to shove every crackpot nonsense they can at me. I watch one political thing and now they try and shove every conservative propaganda they can at me. It feels like when I was young, the internet was too much for conservitives to understand and control....not anymore. What's the one true power conservatives have? Money. Now they're ether buying up social companies or their CEOs left right and center - or at least bringing tech leadership into the ultra-rich fold. Where they are winning without exception, is in isolating the majority of their voters. Now, there's no longer a shared reality and the divide seems to wide to close. Conservatives wanted brainwashed cult followers and did everything they could to make it happen. Now Idiocy seems far more real on the right with each passing year.

Vote. Just, vote.

Your concerns are valid but all the Rs coming out like this is more about how terrible Trump is and less about anything else. Don’t underestimate how many moderates there are in both parties and these Rs help there - progressives need their votes. After Trump is gone, we can hopefully go back to trying to improve the voting system, pushing Dems more left and hope that anyone on the right exchanges some of their selfinterests for social interests - but that’s best we can dream for.

But wait, wasn't it here yesterday?

Maybe ask them if they're generalizing before a tirade? Yes, hate and stupidity exists everywhere, but I've lived in rural and metro areas and their generalization is accurate. And for that matter, there's a lot of warm people that live in back country who aren't stupid or racist, but, depending on a few factors, you can easily run into rural stereotypes. All the same I imagine a lot of us are talking in general views.

If a child has no one else to play with what do they do, play by themselves - many mammals do. Paws are just what's in front of them - and sometimes tails. It's all about play which prepares them for hunting.

This is very likely the reason. Not all downhills will induce it, but the automatic is down-shifting to slow your acceleration. There are various ways for your car to know but manufacturers want the driver in control, not the environment. Depending on the car and speed you may not hear it, but when it slows down does it sound like the engine is revving higher?

Vote, just vote.

You have to go out of your way to avoid national propaganda and put in even more effort to access other views. Half seems low but propaganda is a hell of a drug.

You have to go further than that. A huge population only cares about itself and has made it a part of their identity. Those who have it well don't have to think about those without: drive to or work from home, live and socialize on internet platforms that isolate themselves from the plight of those with less. They can order everything online and have it delivered to their door - they have no clue and depending on how separated they are from those struggling, they may just say, "those people just aren't working hard enough," or some similar line of thinking. It's not hopeless, but we need far more progress in the US, especially with wage inequality and affordable living/homes. Jeff Bazos is allowed to help buy up single family homes so the rich can rent them out....it makes me so angry and sad.

The internet is healing.........Don't look over there, it's already necrotic...

Except for philosophers of physics…they tend to look, relatively stable.

What's that got to do with the price of rice in China? .... Wait

Desire for money and/or being black mailed goes a long way to compromising a seemingly easy retirement. So many people involved didn't need to risk so much, but being blinded by money makes it easy to compromise someone. Don't get me wrong I'm sure some of them were simply brainwashed into believing their nonsense but at the higher levels I'm pretty confident money and blackmail plays a large part.

I'm waiting for an Aussie to enter the chat...

I've watched him on and off and there's likely "stronger" legal minds and they're worth watching too, but LE is still solid, good at explaining to non-professionals and entertaining too.

Add Kelly and she’ll gain more!

Sooo, less electoral points for Republicans? Tempting…

The internet is healing!

Into a barrel of plutonium…

This, 100%. Even when a case seems won, don’t give your opponent anything to muddy the water. I hope she owns this mistake and tightens her process.

Fixed it for you 😘

He’s fairly moderate too, so he’d help a little there, given his record. That aside, I’d have to take a look, but he has voted more progressively of late. I really hope he’s picked as VP.

Cleaning almost anything turns into an adventure of bird-walk-cleaning where you can't remember what started it all or if you even finished cleaning what you set out to clean in the first place...

Facebook was the start (though Yahoo and YouTube weren't far behind). All conservatives and the rich have is money, so what's it to them to buy out the company or their CEO? This may end up being a worse propaganda machine than FOX, but time will tell...Haven't been on Reddit but not sure how their algorithm has been doing but their ads were very conservative before I left...

This is more like doing a + game replay - he was pretty much as OP in end game as he was from the start. 🤓

The structures of our observable universe are larger than you might think.

If you're truly interested in jumping into the rabbit's black hole.

Damn you….don’t you give me hope!

This is me when I'm trying to read/listen/watch anything that doesn't interest me...

Quantum mechanics. Quantum entanglement will blow your intuitive mind.

This. NPR is even left leaning (I’m progressive), but Reuters and AP News, more often than not, seems the least bias - least.

Tried looking up some news on this - anyone have a reliable link?

Illusions of Gaia and Secret of Mana 100% - they're action JRPGs but have the same vibe in many ways.

This is very useful tip. If I don't want to leave the house without something I place the thing in the car first or on top of my shoes. I basically can't trust myself to remember things when I'm on the way out because I'm too distracted by a myriad of unimportant things.

STIM doesn't include ethics, psychology, and sociology. It's amazing how many book-smart people are terrible humans.
