As a gentleman, I'd offer to hold the steering wheel so she has an easier time aiming her lance at oncoming traffic.

Step 3: Prepare a bowl of jelly.

Step 3: Prepare a bowl of sourcream.

Step 2: Prepare a bowl of peanut butter. Touch the bowl gently.

No step: Fingers melt painlessly into caramel. Hold them in your hand.

Step 4: Flatten the peanut butter.

Step 6: Unflatten the peanut butter.

Step 1: Take the peanut butter out of the bowl and put it back in.

Step S: Move peanut butter to a small lasagna baking dish. Flatten and divide into 3 parts.

Step 4: Observe the jelly.

Step 8: Prepare a small bowl of caramel sauce.

Step 3: Stir the caramel once with a finger.

Step 1: Observe the jelly.

Step 8: The spoonful of cum is not needed. Gently remove it from the baking area.

Step 4: Check the jelly is still there.

Step 3: Carefully slice the bread, but you will still cut your finger. The future has already happened. You can not change it.

Step 6: Put sourcream on top of the peanut butter and flatten it.

Step 3: Pour the bowl of sourcream and peanut butter into a bowl of sugar.

Ingest excitedly.

Tech guy here.

This is a tech-flavored smokescreen to avoid responsibility for misapplied law enforcement.

We need more like her who take the threat as a threat and act like it's a threat.

Being "serious" or calm about it is not working, and catastrophically so.

When trying to find the original top image, "male female hardcore" was a poor, poor choice of Google image search terms.

-long rambling historical lecture

-Yeah. Yeah. Sorry, I was thinking of birds for a moment. Many people in Ukraine are surprised and angry to learn they are actually Russia. What would happen if other parts of Russia learn they are actually France? Would they try to join the EU?

Human genes only really "work as intended" when they are combined from very different sets.

So-called "recessive" genes are overruled by your partner's different pile of genes. They are usually shit traits like soggy bones or hair growing backwards, but since they never dominate, they haven't been naturally selected away. They're just harmless baggage.

You can still get them because it's all random, but the likelihood is generally low.

If you don't have that difference in mating genes, more of these recessive genes get to have a say in building the human. This severely increases the likelihood of birth defects.

Fun fact: This is one of the reasons why - when we start colonies on the Moon or Mars or wherever - it's important that we send a fuck ton of people.

Keep in mind that you, along with everyone else, know very little all in all.

The things you do know will be important to you, naturally. Their understanding and their importance will also feel obvious, also naturally.

So anyone not knowing these obvious important things will instinctively feel like an absolute idiot to you.

This is a mental trap. Try to avoid it. The less respect you have for others, the less able you will be to really listen to other standpoints and learn from them, leading to a vicious cycle of alienation.

Sabine Hossenfelder, used to love her takes on physics until she fell in the usual expert's trap of believing she can talk equally usefully about things OUTSIDE her expertise.

First trans care, which missed a few important nuances. Then autism, which had a decades-old perspective and was at best "not informative".

Then hoo boy Capitalism where she made a huge tangled MESS confusing and conflating markets with monetary systems and credit, all apparently based off half-remembered textbooks from 1950 using long-disproven historical claims.

A lot of criticism was sent her way. None was acknowledged, or apparently taken to heart. Repeatedly.

From skillfully presenting physics with a "explain it like I'm 5" style, she's now spouting any trending topic in a "explained by a 5 year old" style.

The same board of directors who put him there are in charge. The same corporate culture that let him push these decisions is still in place. The same critical mass of people in leadership who would care enough to block such crap still don't work there.

While we were very reasonable, we understand that you just didn't get it, which made you sad. We understand it feels bad to be sad. To remedy this, we will try again using different words.
