Ah, you reminded me of one of my favorite pictures that I’ve seen floating around here/reddit/et al.

...what are awesome people supposed to do, trapped in regressive regions?

I thought I had too, but then remembered I have actually been to OKC within the last 5 years. It was so unremarkable that my mind initially refused to recall that I had been there.

I’ve been boycotting Oklahoma all my life.

That little knob at the top of your spine is the most complex natural structure that we know of. At least that's the case for most humans.

The US has had a consistently strong and militarized central government which has helped keep it in power for the last 220 years. It’s been far from peaceful. Its biggest benefit are weak neighbors and two giant walls called the Atlantic and the Pacific.

Correction. People in the West consider Hitler as the worse human being ever but the further east you get, it’s a toss up between Mao and Stalin.

It’s interesting how Hitler killed 11 million people and he’s regarded as the worst bad guy the world has ever known, but Stalin killed at least 34 million, possibly up to 62 million and no one bats an eye.

All that stuff is fine. The drugs are what get you.

If the aliens are smart, they'll give us more guns. It's really the only thing that ever helps. Along with praying.

“They have guns.”

Theres probably a warning sign right outside the solar system that reads.

I think I’ll do one of those maps on my own tonight! It might be fun and I was going to do a couple more articles here before the communities fell apart or whatever the powers that be want to happen.

Neat!

You could until they put this on Gizmodo, which has taken over the entire science/nature crowd.

The science of racing, yes. But not racetracks. That’s a TON of space that could be used for all kinds of explosions and such, and it’s only useful during the actual race.

How about we...

I would rather see SeaWorld turned into a purely educational/research facility, TBH, because despite the company’s faults, the SeaWorld parks are still the best marine animal care facilities in the world. If they were turned towards pure research, they could be immensely helpful for science.

I didn't even read past the title: let's do this thing.
