Lie. Cheat. Steal. Kill. Win win. (Everybody doing it.)
This is the way. Downvotes are for pseudoscience and bigotry, not harmless differing opinions.
I’m not reading the manual of the Uber I’m about to climb into. A firefighter isn’t going to read the manual of a car they’re trying to pry me out of.
I DO read the manual on the Kia I actually drive. To read about the recommendations for the tires. To read about replacing fuses. To find the load hauling capacity. Not how to open the fucking door.
safety shouldn’t influence artistic choice
Did you really just string those words together in all seriousness without a hint of irony? And that folks is exactly why we need the NHTSA.
You’re my new favorite person. Thank you for this.
A child isn’t going to find that. A rescuer who isn’t familiar with Teslas isn’t going to be able to find that.
I couldn’t even figure out how to open a fully functional door from outside the first time I got in a Tesla. I’m an adult who’s been driving my entire life.
That’s not innovation; it’s a safety hazard for the sake of the aesthetics of a handle that doesn’t stick out. I don’t view that as a reasonable trade-off.
Those people also frustrate the hell out of my aunt with actual celiac disease. She’s basically had to stop eating in restaurants because there’s no real way for her to differentiate between “gluten-free” and “no, no really, we cooked all of this in a completely separate area of the kitchen with dedicated utensils that never come into contact with anything from the other side of the kitchen”
She has a couple of places she can trust, but just trying out new places for funsies is not a thing she could ever do.
I just wanna say that I appreciate the hell out of you.
Pharma companies are basing pricing for these one-time-in-a-life-dose drugs on supply and demand principles. There will never be high demand for these drugs because the conditions are so rare. And only needing to be dosed once for a complete lifetime cure means that there is no recurrent payment happening the way you would have with a drug that needed to be dosed repeatedly over a lifetime.
You’ll hear all the usual excuses about “muh R&D costs 😭😭” but the truth is they’re pricing it this way because they can. Because somewhere in the bible of capitalism, this is the way things work.
(R&D costs are just an excuse for greed: https://www.treatmentactiongroup.org/resources/tagline/tagline-fall-2018/pharma-lies-people-die-myth-busting-fact-sheet-on-medicine-development-and-pricing/)
It’s illegal to ask you not to discuss wages in the United States. Violation of federal labor law.
Star Trek. It’s a whole plotline with O’Brien
OP is in Denmark, so no recluse spiders there lol.
Of course it’s a fantasy about what I want. Everything that ever happens in the world starts out as a fantasy of what some people want.
I think there are more cracks in that galvanizing than you think. Overturning Roe is not turning out to be the grand success they’d hoped. Yes, it’s because people who vote conservative require the truth to impact them personally and emotionally before they get the point. Yes, that’s fucked. But it’s the sad reality we’re dealing with here.
I don’t expect people to flip full socialist LGBT ally overnight. But if someone starts suggesting we take up arms against our fellow residents of the US, a depiction of reality might cause enough people to pause and think, “You know, maybe let’s not.”
Don’t act like fictional depictions have no impact on real opinions.
No, I think conservatives who think they want to cosplay as soldiers are exactly the people who need to see what their fantasies would really look like, if brought to fruition. I think the ad placement was deliberate and the movie is intended to be a shock lesson for all people, but especially these ones.
“Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them.”
There’s a reason Margaret Atwood was the person who pointed this out.
I’m on book 8, and if you can believe it gets even better. I’m a little speechless about it.
I mean, yes. People are stupid. That’s why we have safety regulations. This court case is about a lack of safety regulations.
“Person watches X creative and clearly fictional content” is not analogous in any way to “person watches X video essay crafted to look like a documentary, but actually just full of lies and propaganda”
Don’t be ridiculous
