here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price you have to pay to get out of going through all of these things twice

A fantastically large portion of our brain is devoted to auditory processing and language generation. Our entire mouth and throat is built for speech. We were designed - however and whenever you think the designs came from - to negotiate first and fight last. Take the fucking hint.

Human anatomy is almost inconceivably poorly designed for fighting as a primary purpose; we are neither particularly strong, nor fast, nor durable; we have vast energy requirements for systems almost entirely unrelated to fighting

"People are always arguing about whether they should call them 'Metroidvania' or 'search action' games." "Really? Well I can think of something even better to call all those games." "Yeah? What's that?" "Really boring!" "DOOOOHOHOHOHOHOHO"

statler and waldorf, the hater muppets

watching college foobaw and the anti-Talarico ads are so funny because they're like "COMMUNIST CHINA IS BUYING UP TEXAS" and then it turns out that "China" "owns" 162,000 acres of land. that's like one ranch, man—China probably owns more real estate in Vancouver, BC alone than in all of Texas if so

What a bizarre argument he makes in this OpEd. Basically boils down to “boys don’t work in manual labor jobs or go to war anymore, so we need something to channel their intrinsically violent energy into. And that thing is a game that will give them brain damage”

Yet, Ben Sasse and the @wsj.com seem to think that it is appropriate to double down on sacrificing American boys to the death sentence that is this sport. www.wsj.com/opinion/free...

The modern conservative project explicitly supports impregnating children. The trans panic, anti-abortion politics, fearmongering about "over-medication" and disability support: it all comes back to a patriarchal freakout about losing control over who they see as their reproductive property.

Fox News complains that underage teenage girls aren’t getting pregnant enough: “The problem is teens and young adults. From ages 15-19, the fertility rate is down 70% in the last 2 decades, which means we are telling people who are young not to have babies.”

Rabies facts & safety protocol reminders: Treat *ALL* encounters with rabid animals as exposure. It can develop between days or months. Contact your county health department as they can provide Post-Exposure Prophylactic vaccinations at a greatly reduced rate if you are uninsured or underinsured.

“They took the goats throughout the state and visited at least 10 locations, including a Masonic picnic, assisted living centers & a back-to-school bash” Rabies is always fatal You don’t need to be bitten to contract it If you came in contact with baby goats in North Carolina, contact your doctor

It takes you 20 paragraphs to get to the part of the article where they admit that Mamdani isn't paying the influencers and the reason they are posting videos of the stuff Mamdani is doing is because people are interested in watching it.

The mayor’s office says that it does not pay the influencers. Still, their proximity and access to a figure as popular as Mr. Mamdani can help increase their own social media following and, by extension, potentially put them in a position to attract paid content sponsorships from commercial brands. Some influencers said that when they feature Mr. Mamdani, the videos get more likes and viewers watch longer.

"Mr. Mamdani is a master of new media... But as mayor, he has also been able to use taxpayer funds to create a sprawling network of hundreds of friendly influencers to boost his priorities, provide positive depictions of his administration and enhance his popularity."

It's spread via saliva that gets in your body--bites is the one people thinks of but any mucous contact will do (eyes, nose, mouth, broken skin...). Quick reminder that when you show symptoms it's way too late and it's a nasty death. If you were in contact with these, go vaccinate
