Gender has been conflated with human sex from the fifteenth century, but I like your explanation of the sociological application.

Do you want help, because that sounds like

Also crowdsourcing a crossword sounds either fun or terrible

It’s just a practice marriage, so we don’t embarrass ourselves in front of our husbands later.

I remember first hearing about Hulu sometime around 2007-8 and thinking it was a scam. Free (good) TV for one 30 second ad.

Yeah, it’s still impactful, I just also got curious about the number of doctors in the US and figured it was silly to look it up and not share.

It might also be aimed at (and hopefully made by) young people who are often very concerned with their sexuality, even before they have enough practical experience and /or self knowledge to know if they’re sexually attracted to anyone.

I didn’t recognize my first crush on a girl until over a decade later, because it was different from my crushes on boys. I thought I just admired her a lot. I had gotten to second base at least with half a dozen of my female friends before I thought I might be into girls (I was not especially self-aware). Hell, I lost my virginity to a girl and didn’t realize it until years later. I could see this being a list for people like me, who are somehow missing the obvious.

Yeah, there’s about a million, so this is ~1.5%

Luckily, draining an iphones battery is really easy.

Edit: though battery depleted devices can still be tracked for hours.

I’ve never realized how smarmy Cindy (? I had no idea i knew more names than just Jan) looks in this. It’s honestly pretty accurate for siblings, but damn does it raise my younger sister ire.

Even the ones that handled it well, like nz

They still don’t solve them all, so it’s not impossible to get away with it

I’m dumb, so every fall I’m like “why is my cat so obsessed with me right now?”

It’s because most cats cuddle more when they’re cold.

I think it would be the people who died or gave birth that day who would be pretty conclusive and immediate evidence for people, but that wouldn’t apply for those who are disconnected from the rest of the world.

But they can’t stop you from waking up there and they’re not going to spend every morning rounding the same people up. Even if they did, go ahead, throw all my shit on the sidewalk, I’ll still wake up there tomorrow. It would be interesting to see how they react to it, because there’s no meaningful way for them to control people (that I can think of, but they’re pretty creative when they need to be)

I don’t think I’m moving the goalposts, but I was being facetious. Ford was an incredible engineer and musk is probably a pretty good engineer. It looks to me like BYD is the market leader.

If everyone around you seems to be really stubborn, maybe it’s time to check your shoes.

Obviously ford was antisemitic, but he’s not the same as musk for several reasons:

He was actually way more racist

He was a competent engineer

He controlled a much larger share of the auto market

I know that’s how this started. I don’t think it makes a difference. It would be wild to say “car manufacturers like ford and Tesla make a lot of cars,” because that’s misleading. What everyone else is doing is saying “[for a global auto manufacturer,] Tesla doesn’t sell a lot of cars,” and you’re not adding the bracketed portion.

You don’t have to, but it’s implied by the framing and everyone else isn’t wrong because they’re inferring the correct context that you’re unable or unwilling to infer.

As a non-Lost watcher, this is the normal level of confusing for Lost references.

It’s a lot of cars like 23 is a lot of shrimp. It is, but not compared to the size of an adult (or other auto makers, even younger ones than Tesla!)

What difference does that make? If I pay my landlord $30 today, that money is back in my account “tomorrow.” Plus, it’s not like you can get an eviction through, all paperwork is blank at the end of the night, so only the things that people can remember are maintained.
