I wonder what gets selected for during that quick jolt to the ocean and how this trait is useful for the turtle later in its life.
I imagine they also poop on land
Quite a comical detour.
How is that idolizing him? That's being strategic and fighting against Trump winning the election. There wasn't a massive cult movement of people wearing Biden hats and decorating their pickup trucks with 100s of Biden stickers. Biden doesn't have a personality cult. A lot of people who voted and would have voted for him don't actually really like him. Still, they realize the importance of not letting Trump win.
You're missing the point. Good attempt trying to play "BuT bOtH SiDeS" when it's the most clear and obvious thing that idolizing a candidate is a largely problem on just one side.
The law of conservation of fucks: a fuck given means a fuck taken since fucks cannot be created nor destroyed. Basic fuck physics.
The true "no fucks given" app is the one that only existed as a thought for half a second before being shrugged back off into the void.
One time I made pasta for myself and a friend (also roommate). The sauce a bit spicy, with herbs, simmered for a while. One of my favorites. We sat down to eat and he said “yum this is so delicious.” Then he got up, walked to the fridge, grabbed the ketchup, and squeezed it all over the pasta and sauce.
Brazil has a lot of gun deaths. But it’s worth keeping in mind that lots of the Amazon region is essentially a lawless “Wild West” and that specialized police units are, in fact, in war with enormous trafficking gangs. “Regular people” get shot too, of course, in violent crime incidents. But besides this, many “regular people” don’t own guns and don’t advocate for guns in the same way as in the US. There’s not really a “gun culture” that regular people participate in — it’s not an identity. Certainly not as much as the US.
I think that’s what makes the photo a valid joke and criticism of the US and that it wouldn’t work for other countries like Brazil. It’s not just looking at total gun deaths or other absolute metrics, it’s also taking into account the layers that make guns in the US a cultural symbol. The US is basically the “gun country” of the world because in the US, guns aren’t just a gang or criminal thing, they're a “regular” thing.
I also feel like it’s aggressively trying to not come across as a bot. It’s got a really intense whimsical energy that’s kinda creepy and… not human lol
This is a good answer. Bernardo Kastrup argues this; check out his very eloquently titled book Why Materialism is Baloney.
