Ahahahaha I want to live in your world instead of the one we actually live in.

And then 5 trillion more were dumped in by congress. Half during the Trump admin and almost that much under Biden's

100 km/sec is not relativistic and even if it were, at no point would that object need to or could exceed the speed of light. Its a fundamental limit that cant be broken.

If your leg has a mass of 2kg, 1.1×10^10 J of kinetic energy would require your leg to be moving at about 150 100 km/second not faster than the speed of light.

TLDR: Their math is shit.

They're not wrong.

We sterilize cats, dogs etc. because we want to, control what food they eat, confine them to the house (indoor cats), artificially inseminate cows, shred 99+% of male chicks and are starting to introduce cows to vr in certain areas to reduce their stress levels so they produce more and better quality milk because their environment is so horrible that their lives are a living nightmare. Commercial meat chickens have been bred to grow so quickly and so large that its a kindness to slaughter them when mature. Grain fed cattle need to be supplemented with B12 or they get sick and die because there is very little Cobalt in grains that they could use to make B12 themselves. The mad cow outbreak in the UK was caused by the industry practice of feeding cattle parts of other cattle that contained contaminated brain and nerve tissue. Any time theres a bird flu outbreak, we slaughter birds by the millions to stop it. Foi gras is usually made by force feeding ducks until their livers grow several times normal size. Veal is made from baby cows that weve restricted the movement of so their muscle tissue remains nice and soft. We extract animal rennet from their stomachs after theyre butchered and use it to make certain cheeses.

I am not a vegan by any stretch of the imagination but holy fuck do I understand why a lot of people are. By and large, we treat animals like absolute shit. If people were treated like animals are, people would recognize it as a horrifying atrocity.

OP just discovered people treat animals really really badly and wonders why we dont want to do the same with people

I plan to be unproductive for once.

Yeah im not sure that would count against the charges of witchcraft lol

I am a computational chemist so... Not sure how you would translate that so that someone from the 1700s would understand but whatever it is would get me burned as a witch.

I was not saying that it was 95 to 99% of honey is glucose and fructose. I was saying that 95 to 99% of the solutes in that solution are glucose and fructose.

Op... schools have mass shooter drills. So yes going to school can be traumatic especially if you are bullied or you actually end up witnessing a mass shooting yourself. I was bullied for years which made school fairly traumatizing for me. And having someone threaten to shoot up the school I went to did not help things. They were caught before they acted on that threat but it could just as easily have been another dozen dead kids.

We know it isnt free free. But in this economy you take what you can get.

Highschool reuinions are for people that peaked in highschool. And the farther out those reunions are the more true that is.

The reality is that we do not know what the long term effects are. But nonetheless, without knowing what the consequences are, we managed to contaminate most of the planet including our food and water supply with them. Thats what is worrying because there are many cases where we did something similar with disastrous consequences.

Honey is 95 to 99% a solution of a roughly equal proportion of glucose and fructose with other sugars, pollen etc. making up the remainder. HFCS is a solution of ~50 to 55% fructose with the remainder glucose.

TLDR: honey is essentially HFCS with some pollen and a small amount of other sugars mixed in.

I use this alien technology called a phone.
