Hypocrisy so fast it gave me whiplash

That would be the inevitable consequence if everyone decided to not have children.

Real Jake Jortles energy

Yeah I really don’t see the situation in the comic often at all. I won’t say it doesn’t happen, but I’ve personally witnessed way more of this reactionary diversion when men are discussing their unique issues.

And complementary to Chesterton’s Fence is a principle I’ve heard called Grandma’s Ham or the Monkey Ladder Experiment. Sometimes “we’ve always done it that way” is covering up outdated practices for purposes that no longer exist.

I second this recommendation. This review is sincere and left an impression. I do not feel as if I was spoiled

At first I thought 5 orders of magnitude, but 10,000x is way off. The closest I can reckon is they mean “magnified 100% five times”, i.e. 2⁵, or 32x, which seems like it could be right.

Okay, then what? Israel gets weapons from their other allies and we lose any leverage we do have. It’s almost as if this is a complex geopolitical issue, in fact so complex that “bringing peace to the West Bank” is a well established meme for an impossibly difficult task, and simple solutions have consequences not obvious to the layperson.

Daddy mole pops his head out of the mole hole, sniffs the air, and catches a whiff of a farmer nearby having his morning pancakes. “Ooh, it smells like maple syrup!”

Mommy mole wriggles up next to him, and pops her head out of the mole hole. She sniffs the air “Ooh, it does smell like maple syrup!”

Baby mole tries to wriggle up between them, but can’t get his head out. “All I can smell is mole asses”

Probably that trigonometry is the highest math the average person will take?

Do you understand how that works? There are exceptions specifically carved out for Israel, which require Blinken to initiate that process.

Oh I know what he meant.

Gosh, I wanna say I saw it at least as far back as 2010, possibly older.

I’m saying if OP’s neighborhood does, and they didn’t mark their house, that could explain why they didn’t see anyone. Refurbished if there aren’t any other marked houses nearby, kids may just not go that way.

Whatever you say. I’m over here doing what the Palestinians asked me to, you’re over there doing exactly what Netanyahu wants you to do. Maybe you need to start drawing different conclusions about which one of us is supporting this genocide.

I have a dream of a direct democracy through a voting app that pings you with referendums as they come up. There would be message boards for federal, state, and local levels with threads for each proposed referendum. Totally anonymous of course.

It could be a golden age of true democracy. Too bad about the cyber security nightmare.

And I doubt most of us are “duped”. We know this is how it works, and the best strategy is still to keep butting back up against the catch until we have reach the conditions to lift it. Every Dem victory is like a pause button on the rightward slide while we boost candidates for the next primary.

I also think we should yank vaccines off the market. They should be free, why are we selling them?
