I met someone with a “Man shall not lie with another man” tattoo.
That verse is literally the previous chapter to the “don’t get tattoos” verse. Why did he think one was important enough to get tattooed while ignoring the other?
He really chose to get that tattooed?!
There was no way a conversation with this guy would go well, so I’m going to be stuck with these questions forever.
6,000 crickets released directly in the audience. (I hope from multiple points.) This is glorious. 😁
Maybe you don’t mind if a cricket jumps on you. I’d shudder and shake it off, demonstrating my lack of courage and dexterity. A lot of people will scream, jump around, or run.
Picture these assholes attending their favorite panel at TransphobiaCon. A cricket jumps on someone, she brushes it away in disgust. Another just feels something caught in her hair. She bats at it, looks into it’s beady, insectoid eyes and screams. More screams. The Transphobe in Charge can’t hold the audience’s attention.
There is some sort of insect infestation. Are they harmful? They don’t know. But they have to cancel their homophobia speech because nobody wants to sit in a room with thousands of crickets.
This is straight out of an 80’s movie and I am here for it!
Ah, I get it. Really interesting, thanks!
Cool! Are there different Finnish accents? Geographic, socioeconomic, or otherwise?
Granted, I think a human stomach is more difficult to traverse than a frog, and it’s more likely that it came in the back door. I’m just not willing to rule it out.
The signal to noise ratio is so low these days. There’s so much information out there but everyone wants to profit from you before you can get it. Even worse, the people with good information generally can’t buy as big a megaphone as the people who profit from lying to you.
Honestly, I think humans have been more likely to believe an easy lie than a hard truth all along, but it’s easier than ever these days.
I suspect it would be difficult to generate enough data to intentionally change a dataset. There are certainly little holes, like the glue pizza thing, but finding and exploiting them would be difficult and noticing you and blocking you as a data source would be easy.
Or the store just got their Dasani shipment. Or they ordered twice as much because it’s so popular.
Sometimes jokes are funny as long as you don’t think about them too much.
A cab with no driver is just an incredibly expensive gender neutral toilet. I shudder to think what will be done in these if they ever exist.
Didn’t he say full self drive was two years away at least 5 years ago?
Tell that to Chelsea Manning.
Sure, the US is mostly freer with information than a country that is unabashedly authoritarian. But ask Ron DeSantis what he was doing at Guantanamo, or the CIA what they did in Latin America. If you don’t think the US hides plenty from its citizens, you haven’t been paying attention.
Our Tianimen Square was Kent State, or maybe the MOVE Bombing, or all of the documented police violence against protesters and marginalized people. Fat lot of good it does that we can talk about them when nothing changes.
I think it makes more sense to hold our government to account than point out the flaws of people we don’t like.
Americans will post a meme about Tianimen Square while eating a Chiquita banana.
Thanks, yeah that is an interesting point. I suppose any sort of experimentation becomes a bit more ethically dicey when the scientist can’t have informed consent from the subject.
Thank you for your service.
The treatments were black-and-white painted stripes, black painted stripes, and no stripes (all-black body surface). Recorded fly-repelling behaviors were head throw, ear beat, leg stamp, skin twitch, and tail flick. Photo images of the right side of each cow were taken using a commercial digital camera after every observation and biting flies on the body and each leg were counted from the photo images. Here we show that the numbers of biting flies on Japanese Black cows painted with black-and-white stripes were significantly lower than those on non-painted cows and cows painted only with black stripes
Black paint was not as effective as black and white paint.
I think most vegans agree that factory farming is abusive. I would be interested to hear a case that the paint itself is abusive.

The study says that zebra markings repels flies.
Conservatives think that some people are just better than others and, surprise surprise, they’re near the top of the “natural hierarchy”.
“I’m an immigrant, but I’m not like those other immigrants because I don’t [Republican stereotype of immigrants]”
I like my Halloween candy like I like my coffee: without a penis.
