It’s a book / movie that just came out where the operators of a spaceship continually turn artificial gravity on and off by using spinning to create centrifugal force. I’m assuming there are recently a lot of people wondering this same question.

lol did you just watch Project Hail Mary?

Ask any suspected bot the following logic problem then watch em explode.

Why?

Be seeing you.

I peaked at birth, every choice from that point has been dubious.

Three years license suspension.

So when she is even older she can drive again. This right here is what truly solves nothing. I’ll tend to agree that punishment doesn’t help many situations but why this woman can ever legally drive again is baffingly.

“Do you think I’m some STD-ridden guy”

Jesus what an ignorant thing to say. Having an STD doesn’t make you a bad person or anything, it’s not a reflection on him if he did have an STD, it’s just a medical situation that requires certain precautions. So if your hooking up, then you inherently younever know so you HAVE to be safe.

Glad it wasn’t a big problem and you had fun, but what an ass.

A minor exceptions, I stole a sip of my a coke without realizing there was booze in it. Felt weird, tasted gross.

0/10. Don’t recommend.

I didn’t really drink until my 21st birthday. My only memories of that night was being bought a shot of Hennessy, bartender telling me to put my shoes back on and then crying to my best friend that I totally loved her in the cab home.

Hilarious. 10/10. Smashing success.

Same! You just have such little control over your food as a child, especially in an unsupportive family. It wasn’t until I moved out, was buying my own groceries, cooking my own food when I stumbled across a philosophy video going through the ethical arguments and I couldn’t argue against of it. Went vegan as a “test” just to see if I could, and here I am ~15 years later. Never going back.

As with most things, social pressure is the biggest hurdle.

You’re entirely correct. I devoured the books years ago, and then almost immediately bounced off the show because of the changes. Thankfully I pushed through it, but the show is very much doing it’s own thing.

Woke up next to my wife.

Tbh, I do that a lot but it’s still the best!

As a negative control, they also prepared an identical sealed tray containing only a wet sponge and the biosensor, but no meat. They observed that the biosensors in the pork and mutton trays turned bright yellow after 24 hours, while the one in the beef tray took 36 hours. In contrast, the control biosensor showed no detectable change.

That’s so cool, meat is still gross, but this is unambiguously a fantastic thing for humanity. If it’s actually used, I’d have to imagine the less reliable yet ass covering legal expiration date sticker will always be cheaper. Hope this becomes the new mandated standard, innovations are meaningless in the face of uncaring capitalism.

Orson is so frustrating. Speaker for the Dead is a wonderful book about not judging other cultures, their practices or desires. Things that may seem shocking to you personally, are normal and celebrated by others.

And it’s written by a bigot. Like dude, have you even read your own book?

It’s a far better Ghostbusters movie than the last two garbage ones that were put out

💯

As a fan of the books, I was initially pretty upset with some of the changes, but I’m glad I stuck with it. The show is it’s own thing that goes to some fascinating places.

Perhaps in a purely academic limbo of examining the writing techniques, but that’s not the world any of us actually live our lives. “Death of the Author” is a cop out, especially when the author still lives.

Fundamentally I won’t ever be able to pick up my teenage favorite Sandman again without seeing the parallels between Neil and Morpheus rape, entrapment and abuse of the women who they lord power over. My own personal emotional connection to any of his character, worlds or stories is irrevocably shattered. I can’t view that as a character flaw, but more of a self-insert to Neils personal fantasies.

It sucks but that is where we are at now. :/

Neil fuckin Gaiman.

The monster went from my favorite author to a name that elicits rage and disgust.

Deciding to keep me at 15 & 19.

I love my life, am absolutely happy to be alive, don’t get it twisted. But 2 teenagers not having an abortion is the original sin of their poor parenting choices
