Relativity existed, sure, but our theory of it didn't. Einstein didn't invent relativity, but he did create the theory.

Please give us more of your expert knowledge re: the hood. We are dying to know.

...It doesn't, though. My butt is built for sitting on things; why would I want holes for my butt? What is supporting my weight?

Reporting missing persons varies by jurisdiction, and it's often complicated by age of the subject and other factors. So while police should take missing persons reports immediately, many do not have to and will not.

Yes, they are. I already recommended this in a different post, but if you every do decide to get started, check out Whipped Dog (horrid name) site. He sells good refurbished razors and everything else you need to get started. If you don't like the selection, wait around and it will change. I got a good razor for…

I use Whipped Dog (horrid name), which sells refurbished razors. They're reasonable prices and good quality, but the selection can be all over the place. I've heard decent stuff about Smallflower.com, but never used it. StraightRazorPlace has classifieds, as does BadgerandBlade. Maybe that will give you a place to…

I'm a woman, and I shave with a straight razor. I find it less irritating and way cheaper (you don't need to drop anywhere close to $500 for a good kit, and if you take care of the blade, it lasts forever). And yeah, there is definitely a small 'cool' factor. But then you get guys who spend way too much time on…

It's such a shitshow, isn't it? Congrats on the kid!

I get the bias thing: I'm probably biased a bit the other way, which is I why I went back to count.

I was a little skeptical of this, so I did a quick search for 'breastfeeding.' Since March, there have been about eight articles regarding moms getting judged for breastfeeding (here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here) and about three (lost track) regarding the opposite situation. I might have missed some,…

I already know that even if I someday want children, I won't be breastfeeding. I don't want to. My body is going to be solely responsible for keeping the future baby healthy for nine months. Once it's out, my body's done. I don't want that physical responsibility anymore.

Amen. I really wish people would give up on me and Sherlock. It's not going to happen. Give it up and move on.

"Communicate higher-order thinking" is the clumsiest pretentiousness I've ever read, and I've read both academic philosophy texts and Dan Brown.

Hmm, I wish they didn't have that hole in the side, but it's a good suggestion—thanks!

Anybody have any good winter boot recommendations? I used to have these Salomon boots. They were great because they were thin and stretchy, but with some heavy socks they were enough to get me through some damn cold winters (weeks of -30 F cold). The stretchy part was good because I do a lot of cycling in the…

It was just really unmemorable. None of it made a lasting impression on me. I can't hum a theme, I can't describe his ship, shit, I don't even remember its name. The characters were pretty bland. It wasn't a bad movie, but it wasn't great.

My arteries just stiffened in sympathy.

Why? What if they quit meat for environmental reasons instead of humanitarian ones? Whatever the reason, they still quit meat.

So that you can communicate with servers?

I just finished my STEM degree in May. It is survivable, I swear! I hope next term picks up for you.
