If it’s any consolation, the last two twisters I saw, there were no sirens. They form fast, they’re hard as hell to predict, and most of them are small and only hold for a couple minutes. They do largely hit areas with less dense populations, too.

I don’t know what happened, but just going off what NDT said, he did creepy shit that would make anyone uncomfortable, is creepy in how he explains himself, and completely failed/fails to police his own behavior.

Well that sounds like a great idea; air quality isn’t good, so funding that could alleviate that is withheld? It’s like No Child Left Behind but for that thing we need in order to breathe.

If I leave an onion on my counter long enough, what is the green, onion-flavored stalk that grows and I cook with?

I bought mine 3 years ago and it was still about a grand cheaper than auto. Pretty bummed about this development, Mazda has until this point at least nodded to people who like to drive even with their base options.

Rofl, it’s true though. I was dropping off a one night stand at his car and he was all excited to show me the SkyActiv badge like it meant anything other than getting 33-45mpg. I still don't understand his motivation there.

I have a 2016 Mazda 3 and it already feels that way. It’s actually worse in my husband’s 2011 Civic SI.

I have been through some SHIT when it comes to painful medical conditions and piss poor treatment. It’d make your hair curl. A list of the times doctors either blatantly refused to assess a problem or didn’t remotely approach standard of care had turned into a long form essay, even before my feelings were explicitly…

They’re only similar if you’re stupid and/or racist.

What goes through your mind when you think a people whose first known contact with outsiders resulted in abduction and death couldn’t make the connection between “outsiders” and “we die”? Do you think they have to have germ theory to understand this?

I hate to break it to you, but cultural relativism does not mean what you clearly think it means.

Fucking same. I am absolutely enraged about this rotten, entitled little shit.

I’m fully confident he believed he was doing good. I’m also fully confident that doesn’t absolve him of being an evil piece of shit just because he didn’t mean to endanger all of those people.

Fuck that, he should have been killed. He had been warned multiple times both by locals and the government not to go. The Sentinelese warned the shit out of him multiple times as he approached. These people may yet die because this stupid, worthless piece of shit cared more about his own feelings than the rights and…

I certainly think we ought to treat euphemisms as having the same power as the actual slur, since that’s what is called to mind when anyone uses one and it makes zero sense that that should be ok. That said, it still would have been racist and stupid regardless of the word he used because race isn’t something you…

I’m pretty sure had they walked in and had an officiant marry them during normal business hours around other archives visitors it would cost the same as the price of admission (free, or $1.50 if they chose to skip the lines and get a reservation).

I’m disgusted but I’m not surprised.

I had no idea this woman even existed but I’ve fallen completely in love with her.

Niiiiiiiice.

It’s ok because the guy was already blind in one eye? I feel like that makes it worse.
