  • Red kibble was the Expanse. Belter food.

  • Negasonic Teenage Warhead is so good that they named (created) the comic book character after the song, not the other way around.

  • She wrote some bangers. “O Viridissima Virga” slaps.

  • How has nobody mentioned the term “pocket veto” yet? He can just stick it in a drawer and never sign it. His lackeys in congress can recess within the 10-day time period (you know, Thanksgiving) and then it’s dead. They have to reintroduce the bill and go through it all over again.

  • What if it already exists but you’ve been made to forget about it?

  • I JUST finished the series this weekend. Drummer was one of my favorite characters.

    Not posting spoilers but I wish I could see what happens after the finale.

    On to the books, I guess!

  • Great question.

    In culinary school there is an entire module on butchering - mammals, birds, fish, etc. I’ve always said my ability to cleanly and safely butcher all the things would make me very valuable in a post-apocalyptic scenario.

    Creating and maintaining a fire isn’t easy but it also isn’t hard. Unrelated to culinary school, I’ve learned the skill to create charcoal from solid wood in a primitive low-oxygen furnace - that would be useful.

    Even without metallurgy, I could probably cook on slates and stones, or create pottery solid enough to boil water. If I’m around during or after the Iron Age, I’ve got all the cast iron I could want.

    Ingredients would probably be limited. My knowledge of food chemistry would definitely help. Without refrigeration I’d have to rely heavily on pickling and salting. If I could learn glassblowing, we could move on to canning as a preservative.

  • Yeah I can go pretty damn far back. (username)

  • Chemotherapy.

    You mean they poisoned people in hopes that the tumors died before the person did? Wild!

  • Speak for yourself.

  • HOLY FORKING SHIRTBALLS

  • Galileo, the homeboy who discovered Jupiter’s moons and Saturn’s rings, was 43 years old when the first British settlers landed at Jamestown.

  • Thanks Nougat. I appreciate this response. Especially the “MAY implicate” part. It’s a nuance that was lost on me.

  • Not exactly.

    It’s more like saying “answering this question may create a statement that would incriminate myself in wrongdoing.”

    The fifth amendment affords you the right to refuse to self-incriminate. In layman’s terms, you can’t be forced to testify against yourself.

    The way I interpret this, answering that question would have implicated himself (Epstein) so he did not answer it.

    And if it would incriminate Epstein, well, then it stands to reason that the other party (Trump) in that question would also be incriminated by that answer.

  • I feel so sad.

  • That’s the gap between favorable and unfavorable.

    Take 100 people.

    60 find you favorable 40 find you unfavorable

    You have a +20 favorability.

    Now take 100 people

    30 find you favorable 70 find you unfavorable

    You have a -40 favorability.

    As for the definition, “Favorable” could be just asking “would you vote for x?” Yes or No.

    That part I am not 100% certain on. I am not an expert at polling.
