it’s all relative anyway

it’s just a matter of whether you’re voting for the rich psychopath or the rich geriatric.

seems an easy choice to me

wish I actually used Spotify, so I could boycott

step 1: give them money.
step 2: make them think you’ll give them more money. this may involve repeating step 1 several times.
step 3: let them know that if you don’t get what you want, the money stops.

then it’s just a matter of whether the money you were giving them is significant enough to make them care.

if your article can be summarised as “no”, you don’t have enough material to write an article.

the right to abortion is just a subset of bodily autonomy: noone should be able to make decisions or take actions upon your body except you/with your consent.

you can survive with half a liver, and livers regenerate. you can also donate significant amounts of your blood, and even more plasma, without ill effect. these things are lifesaving, but despite that, you cannot be forced to do so against your will.

abortion is no different. just because it can’t survive without you doesn’t mean it gets priority over your own bodily autonomy.

because, ummm… some people might get upset that they can’t vote for him? Despite the very clear, very legal reasons for his disqualification?

but expecting people - not just many people, but a lot, an enormous number, at least a majority if not an overwhelming majorly - to spontaneous commit to a coordinated action despite widely differing philosophies, politics and life circumstances, is like expecting dissolved sugar to spontaneously re-crystallise back into a cube at the bottom of your cup.

plausible paths to change require organisation, and there are not very many examples of successful organisation that aren’t led from the top.

did this magazine get renamed “olds”?

yourself?

I can only assume that’s what I meant to type, so I’ve corrected it. thank you 😆

I think a better phrasing I for this question might be, how easily can i put myself in a (fictional) character’s shoes?

using examples from the adjacent reply, it’s obvious Frodo is intending to destroy the ring, is questing to that end. but can you imagine yourself being him, imagine how he feels at a specific moment in the story, discern his deeper, non-explixit motivations, his thoughts or fears?

a marginally more imminent death.

time for what? could you tl:dr?

heterochromata, now you get to pick your own colours!

drastic social reform.

… just like everywhere else.

coward.

it’s going to be hard to get to 40k if we don’t keep counting through the 10s.

I think most species probably align themselves to either the galactic plane or prominent orbital plane of the local star system.

the “up” & “down” directions would be completely arbitrary, though. there’s no reason to think everone would decide on a standard for those.

and species without that certain sense of appropriateness, or an overt dedication to logic, would likely not bother with a standard orientation. and especially when in orbit over a planet, I think everyone would orient their “down” towards the surface.

let’s just say that steam has a section of games distinctly not aimed at children.

the light at the end of the tunnel is actually an oncoming train
