"If you don't, someone else will." But that only works when the population is so divided that they don't trust the average replacement to hold your standards. And then of course be proven that the next person actually doesn't hold the same standards.
Stupid rules like "only refuse once". You have to refuse once because it's considered polite to offer, even if they don't want to, so you have to refuse once. If they actually meant it they can now go "oh, but I insist", at which point you should accept, otherwise it's impolite to refuse.
Attacking how communication is done instead of what's being communicated is a form of subversion the CIA uses to mess with foreign actors. The left and its tolerance towards others (e. g. misgendering by accident) is very susceptible to such attacks and they've let themselves be decimated on the public stage because of it.
I have a watch that shows binary time. Two rows, I think 12 hour cycle, no seconds. Pretty easy to read, honestly. Also an absolute nerd gadget and I loved it.
Everything goes through our brains and therefore filters and interpretations. Science doesn't happen if grants are approved and that usually means someone has something to gain. Even then, results are skewed by method and biases.

you need a way to transfer the stored power into the water faster (otherwise why bother), which means thicker coils and more wear
I sucked in oral exams and therefore hated them. Then again, if they had been mixed into regular school, it might not have sucked so much.
