I've seen some "documentaries" involving "white holes" in space before...

When someone as fucking stupid as Rogan is questioning the idiocy of a policy you know it's gotta be bad.

I had to semi-drunkenly explain the brassica family to a drunk friend during the intermission of a burlesque show because she didn't believe me about them. I didn't get all the details right, but eventually she googled it herself and was shocked.

I almost support automated downvoting of Universalmonk's ban evasion alts.

Unfortunately the red sections of Michigan stayed red, and the large groups of voters in the blue sections bought into the whole "genocide Joe" bullshit. The actual vote totals showed that red votes stayed pretty level with the 2020 and 2022 numbers, while blue voters just didn't turn out. Hopefully this is a fucking wake up call.

I've suggested that the entire NFC North could just become Canadian providences. Parts of Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois already feel like Canada anyways. Also we'd dominate the CFL!

Full disclosure: I live in Michigan.

IA! IA! Cthulhu f....uck that!

Your math is off by a bit there. In 2024 alone there were ~48,000 organ transplants performed in the US. Now, that was a record high. So if all ~10 people who died of rabies in 2024 had been organ donors and somehow it wasn't caught that they died from rabies that's still only a 0.02% chance of getting an infected organ. That number is still wrong because all of those cases were caught and their organs would not have been donated, plus only about 58% of the adult US population are listed as organ donors. Also, it's fewer than 10 people, not ~10 people. The actual average number of people who have died from diagnosed rabies in the US since 2000 is ~2.5 per year.

So, overall, the chance of a registered organ donor dying from rabies and their organs still being donated is remarkably low.

So long, and thanks for all fish

Repeated targeting of them for vandalism makes them a liability for insurance companies. If the insurance rates go up or they become uninsurable the sales numbers will decline. No need sales plus less on the road paying the ridiculous subscription fees or paying for charging means less money for Tesla.

Plus, Nazis can fuck off.

How dare you‽ You're right, but how dare you‽

I now have you tagged as "Markwayne". Thanks for the idea!

Somebody make sure to explain to Elon that the swastikas on the temples mean something else there.

Ok. I didn't argue against any of what you said, just gave my reasons for using the label that I do. I have met trans/NB exclusionary bisexuals, and that turned me off to using that label for myself. If other people use bisexual to describe themselves and mean it to encompass attraction all possible gender identities then that's great!

It doesn't, but I have had that argument thrown at me almost verbatim by someone who identified as bisexual after I mentioned that I'm less attracted to masculine than feminine.
