Replace “netflix” with “health care” and re-read the post. Th point is it’s stupid to pay for something 3 times over but thats how (American) health care is.

Its only gatekeeping if its about medieval defense structures, otherweise its just sparkling assholery.

Your meme has inspired me to renew my library card.

Downloaded this one as a contact photo.

My wife finally upgraded after 5 years, and I’m on year 4 of my Pixel 6 and its still going strong, will probably go another 1-2 years with it.

And you then spend longer verifying the information its given you than you would have spent just looking it up to begin with.

Finger’s crossed that Boebert is on the list

Everyone under 30 in this thread is now googling Ron Jeremy

Based on Trump’s recent strikes on boats, I’m going to assume this was the USA

And there’s a Boy Scout meeting going on

Paramount Pictures was created 1 month before Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated.

As and American I’m also trying to turn various drinks into whiskey.

Every treatment plant in the country is already collecting samples of wastewater as it enters and leaves the plant as they have to take certain measurements every day to show compliance. To my knowledge, there is no way to identify/track individuals based on wastewater. There is a government database of everyone’s license plate.

The primary purpose of wastewater treatment is biological material and nutrient removal, primarily nitrogen. Check out the wikipedia page for more details, I’m a biologist, not a chemist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastewater_treatment

So this is actually my industry - Wastewater Based Epidemiology or WBE. It is very anonymous. There is no way to pick out one person’s identity from the waste stream. What we get is a about 100mL of blend from 24 hour’s worth of shit water passing into the treatment plant. A tiny treatment plant is processing 100,000 gallons per day, while a top 10 plant is processing > 100 Million gallons per day.

I assume you also watched last week’s Last Week Tonight?

And yeah, we get fucked by the system 8 ways to Sunday.

Being cold blooded and living “wholly in water” are also requirements.

Who the fuck is asking for that?
