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.

WOW. He just wears the uniform and marches to the beat because he might be persecuted otherwise. It’s totally different, even though it’s only noticeable if you can literally read his mind. Next you’ll say those nine people sitting at a table with a nazi are nazis.

Don’t you dare take Bernie from the US. I’m sorry, we need him.

Which CA?

When I was four, I once ate 23 shrimp in one sitting. That’s a lot of shrimp!

If an adult were to eat 23 shrimp, it would be wholly unremarkable.

Ford was the first person to make broadly affordable cars in an immature market.

Around a century later, ford’s numbers are dwarfed by a much larger auto market.

I wouldn’t bet on them being clean cuts /s

If the beavers banded together and tried to exterminate humanity, they wouldn’t get as far as humanity would exterminating beaverkind. That’s domination: exerting your will on those around you to their detriment and not being deterred by their resistance, no?

I don’t think that’s a fun competition or nice thing to consider, but there are few animals that could come close to beating us in that regard. Ants, termites, and bees are the first that come to mind for me, but there are probably other possibilities.

Plants, fungi, and bacteria on the other hand… I don’t think we could really expect to win against the most ubiquitous examples of those.

My mom died when my sister and I were approximately Buffy’s and dawn’s ages, respectively. It was an absolute gut punch to watch for me too.

Ah, okay. Now I get you, lol.

What exactly is obvious? The cops are not going to jump to death note being real and there’s basically zero identifying information in the choice of billionaires.

I think you could just straight up get away with it if you stuck to publicly known individuals like that tbh

Hold on for some Jared Diamond-ass reasoning.

Before sanitation rules, very broadly: Europe made alcohol to make potable water whereas Asia boiled it and made tea. When there’s no tea available or fitting your tastes, the water still needs to be purified, so drinking hot water was still a common practice which has stayed around as an aspect of culture.

This is very boomer, but absolutely not in a bad way. I started sending it to my dad before I even finished reading it.

I moved from Connecticut to Germany and I’m very happy about it.

There was a lot of voter suppression, myself included. A lot of people wanted to vote and couldn’t.

I can’t link to it, because I’m on the app, but the modlog says a rule one violation (civility), with no removed or quoted comment, so……..

My mom did die of cancer, but not lung cancer. They both quit when they were younger than I am, but each smoked much more in total than I have, so I think that’s a toss up. Smoking is basically my only unhealthy habit -I don’t even sit very much- but it’s a whopper of an unhealthy habit

It seems like magical realism to me

Alcohol is also used in medication
