Do a little dance, he said.

Get down tonight, he said.

What he didn't say, was an electron has both mass and spin yet has no definite location.

  • Ya wtf is up with eevery Meme sublemmy just being politics? That shit should STAY in a politics sublemmy. I don't go to Memes to be sad and angry, I go to Memes to ESCAPE and ENJOY myself.

    I had such hope for Lemmy, but its just a cesspool of hateful extremists with a handful of people trying to genuinely enjoy themselves.

  • I feel like the older I get, the more attracted to men I become. Idk, must be all that microplastic lol

  • Responsibility includes accounting for possible aggressive behavior :/ If you're responsible for a chainsaw, you know to keep it oiled. You know to use it only in the correct environment, and you don't have it anywhere near children.

    So yes, you can responsibly own a pitbull. Responsibility is being responsible for a subject; its well being, its actions, and the consequences of its existence.

    And yes, responsibility can overcome what 200 years of artificial selection at a rate of every 2 years has done. That is literally what responsibility is charged with.

  • Or, ya know, people could be responsible pet owners.

  • Uh, so you alright there buddy?

  • God is trans by common definition; not male or female, both, neither. God is non-binary.

  • I have no faith in the justice of the USA anymore. His whole base could turn against him and he'd wiggle his way out of any punishment the same way he has before as acting president. Immunity.

    Just RUNNING for second term had courts dropping cases from him.

    There are too many people in power that want him in power for anything to happen. Even if all those people are on the list, which duh of course they are, those people have enough influence that they could feasibly keep power.

  • One, they aren't fantasy units— this is real life, son.

    Two, the country was built on imperial, so the trades use imperial to maintain the country. Everyone in the US grows up learning in imperial, and then learns metric when they get into physics and chemistry.

    Three, I addressed the fact that WE CAN NOT AFFORD TO SWITCH. It does not matter if it is going to be more expensive in the future. We can't afford it NOW.

    I understand the spirit of your reply. This is just the reality of what having 50 different states, who can't agree on anything and are loosely tied together by an over-arching government, is like.

    There are 27 counties in the European Union, and they are filled with reasonable people in government(for the most part). We have 50 states that are filled with greedy little assholes who will do everything in their power to gain more power to leverage in a bid to destroy what they deem "the enemy", so they can make even more money and gain more power.

    We are never going to convert wholesale to metric. We can't even agree, as a country, that poor people are people, at a government scale. That is entirely motivated by profit and nothing more.

    It simply does not pay to switch to metric.

  • Everytime I see one of these posts I have to make the same comment. The US is metric, everywhere that it matters. In the military, in the medical field, and in the scientific field. The ONLY reason we haven't converted every other part of our lives to metric is that our country is 50 times the size of the average European country. Do you know how expensive it would be to replace the infrastructure we've built and maintained over the past 200 years? The tax payers could not handle that burden, and it would require every state to agree to the terms of the change for a total conversion.

    At this point, it is just part of our identity. It would be like asking the French to eat day old bread. They could, but why?

  • Right? The two words used in the bible that are translated, by tradition, into "carpenter" actually translate as "craftsman" and "builder". Jesus helped build houses, which at the time and in that region were made of stone. So there is some strong evidence that Jesus was a stone mason. To back that up, a lot of his parables used house-building as an aid.

    We can't know for sure, but yeah! Kinda neat, huh?

  • Or possibly a stone mason, weirdly.

  • Whoa! Well damn, I guess I have some stuff to study and follow up on. Thank you so much for informing me!

  • That is wild! Wait, occupied Korea and independent Korea... which is which and why is what? Tried looking it up, and got a history lesson on the occupation of Korea by Japan, and a fuck ton of ads for like 5 pages.

  • This reads like a line out of an old sitcom.

  • So apparently, after some investigation, the South Korean studio that was hired to do the animation outsourced the project to the North Korean studio under the nose of the American company that hired them.

    That's... kinda scummy, actually.

  • Wow. I don't think I've ever seen a board like this. Black would have to really mess up to lose this game.

  • Hmm, that's interesting. I can't find that definition for fascism anywhere, but I'm not going to dismiss it just because a few dictionaries don't align perfectly. I'll do some digging and see if I can find the historical context and first-use cases.

    I am curious what parts of China are your friends from? I mostly hang out with people from Sichuan, with one friend from a village called Urumqi(I have no idea where that is though). China is a big place, and I wouldn't be surprised if there was a different regard for the government region-to-region.

  • I'mma be honest, if I was living in a country where it was common knowledge that slandering the government in anyway got you disappeared, I'd rate them highly on any study put in front of me :/

    I know I'm going to have comments telling me I don't know what I'm talking about, and that's ok. I've enough friends in China, and from China, who have talked about this kind of thing to understand that this graph could represent the feelings of the people, but likely doesn't.

  • That is such a shoddy argument. Communism leads to fascism, we have examples. Socialism leads to fascism, we have examples. Monarchy leads to fascism, we have examples. ALL political schemes can lead to fascism, and it has everything to do with the pursuit of power by a few and very little to do with the system of governance itself. Of course Capitalism can lead to fascism; where ever there is fair compromise to be exploited there will be an opportunity for fascism.

    Also, I didn't see any other replies to my comment. Unless you think I'm going to stalk the person I replied to and nag them to reply to me directly, I don't think that counts :/
