You sir, are a genius. *golf clap*

If the Spades are truly a common thing at these, I really need to figure out how to make some black friends. I love Spades, but almost nobody I know can play.

“Who you calling a broad?”

Great, now there’s going to be an “intelligent athlete” trope.

“Nanobubbles protect me from black on black crime.”

Which is what journalists do, asshat.

I think we need to refocus our collective ire in the proper direction.

What if you just let your kids stand out on the sidewalk screaming their damn heads off every morning at 7 AM?

Enjoy your wistful schadenfreude. Tis of no concern to me. When I did “own” a cat, it was free to come and go just as any other autonomous creature. If it got hit or eaten or even shot at by one of the fine gentlemen in these comments, that is, like the cat itself, part of nature. Everything dies. I believe most…

Cool. Try not to shoot the kids if they loiter too long or agitate your indoor cats.

The whole article above actually backs up my anecdotal statement with scientific evidence!

Indefinitely does not mean the same thing as infinitely. Plenty of things exist indefinitely. It just means we don’t know how long.

Love the article, but just to nitpick... though the consensus suggests quasars are cause by supermassive black holes, we really don’t know what causes them. This distinction is important when you’re using quasars to prove another theoretical cosmic event. Its like dubbing a tape over and over again. The more theories…

There’s really nothing the cameras could show us. We’re talking about two objects that could each be about a billion times the size of our sun that aren’t exactly visible to begin with. Just as we are unable to put a camera anywhere that can really show us the details of more than one planet in the same frame, the…

As a species, “staying put” in one area of the planet is a terrible, terrible idea, as the Toba eruption further proves.

Counterpoint: you’re an asshole.

I love that cats are “destroying the ecosystem”. Sure thing. Nevermind that every “fact” in the author’s article is some combination of “Scientists aren’t sure... but if ____ happens, it could be a problem.” Haven’t you heard? Cats are Earth’s biggest problem right now.

Cool story. You like killing things that annoy you. That doesn’t change my opinion on the matter. The main argument behind any of these exchanges is that some people want to live in some idealized version of reality where they only have to interact with pre-approved creatures of their choosing, whereas others are…

I’ll be honest. I answered as best as I can remember, but I moved a lot and ended up taking various forms of sex ed like 3 times, so its all kind of muddled together and fuzzy at this point. I mean, seriously, who in their 30s remembers the specific curriculum from their HS sex ed class (or any class)? The only thing…
