The vaccine one would probably be better as: “independent thinking researchers developed a means of using your own body’s immune response to prevent diseases with a mere injection. Some of them even refused to patent it. But then the media started lying to you about them, trying to get you to stop accepting these miracles? Why, just so some companies could make more money selling you proprietary snake oil to keep you comfortable while you’re sick.”
It’s a beautiful graph. And the stats are great. But I’m in industry so I use excel
I want the Russian empire to allow its people and its neighbors to live freely and as equals. Until that day I will oppose their government
It was always evil with noble intents. But it’s also a group of people. No group of people is wholly good, no idea wholly incorruptible. Life is shades of grey. The fascists want you to think in absolutes, it’s easier to divide and conquer that way
Even if I survive the next four years I doubt my liver will…
I’ve had jobs that amounted to sitting around waiting for work and hated it. I’m the first to tell people that I work just hard enough to not be bored and to keep everything under control
As an American, please don’t give anyone ideas. I really don’t want to need refugee status to go out west.
I can’t imagine giving that up. As an American I once wanted us to join the shengen as one of my long term political pipe dreams.
It they luck out the removal of the fda might lead to mass ergot poisoning then. Actually, fuck, a cynical government could absolutely just dose large chunks of the population with entheogens, the cia has pulled shit like that.
So overturn or amend? Like I’m kinda surprised he’s even taking the constitution into consideration. Like he’s weird, he doesn’t seem to want to acknowledge that once he’s done all he says he wants to do the United States of America will no longer exist. Caesar could not cross the rubicon and rule the republic, he could only control Rome. Nor could Napoleon take full control of the French Republic. Republics are finicky things like that, a dictator can only ever hold their land, not the thing itself.
Yeah, not only did I vote against this, my demographic hit 94% for Harris.
The thing is, evolution makes sense, so long as you aren’t going to outright reject the idea that humans aren’t a different category of thing from the rest of Animalia. It gets weird when you get deep enough to see that we share an ancestor with plants and bacteria and even archaea, but we have enough evidence that by the time you’re being asked to understand that fact you can see that line and understand how photosynthetic microbes slowly built new systems while other microbes ate the remains of them before slowly bit by bit developing new traits to differentiate and fill niches.
They don’t want to think of themselves as such, because it’s a form of humility to understand that you evolved from a worm that just happened to have a particularly effective means of transmitting signals along the course of its body. They want to think their gods made them to rule nature.
I use it so often I write a function for it into my calculator in college. Because everything is a sinusoid or triangle it just keeps showing up
Nah they just understand the superiority of beans to triangles
I felt ridiculous watching it but it was so good. It’s the sort of show I plan to pull out to be the fun aunt alongside Avatar. I didn’t expect for it to make me cry but it did
You take that gold star filth and shove it. This is a skyline household /hj
Well they don’t actually believe in the constitution
Leaving the World Health Organization is terrifying
Oh shit, that’s the first person I ever voted against! As a 17 year old I registered as a republican specifically because I hated him.
Reflective solar is normal at least. But photovoltaics are weird. Even weirder is that they’re LEDs backwards, and the fact that transistors just are like that is why they’re encased in black plastic
