Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

I can't imagine something I want less than to go to New York and get my genes spliced. They'd be trying to sue me for the next 100 generations.

That thing has blue blood that's used to detect infections.

I recall hearing that it is made in part of h2s which does smell like.farts

Whatever disease the Americans have seems to be spreading. Time to lock down the borders until we get it all figured out.

I've made the requested configuration change.

I thought for a bit that camus was a bit based but then I read about his very French views on that and it's like "oh no. Not based"

There's a case from a few years ago where a monkey took a photograph and the person who set it up so the monkey would do somwas trying to get a copyright. It was ultimately found that the monkey presses the button and monkeys can't hold copyright so the photo had no copyright. I tend to think this is similar.

That's our crack suicide squad.

The millennials are the boomers kids through and through. Anyone who thinks they'll be substantially different in charge hasn't been paying attention (other than they're significantly less talented)

It sure seemed like the acid was a bigger problem but while doing my quick bit of research to make sure I wasn't talking out my ass I couldn't find that exact fact. But it's definitely overall a thing humans didn't eat for most of history.

Little known fact: CANOLA oil didn't exist not that long ago. CANOLA (Derived from Canada Oil) is a form of rapeseed that is low in a certain acid that was engineered to get rid of the off taste so it could be used as a foodstuff. Canola was only invented in the early 1970s, so prior to that it was not widely used as a foodstuff. It was attempted to put rapeseed on the market as a food ingredient in the late 1950s, but in its form at the time it was fairly unpalatable.

I had an account pretty early, probably around 2008 (maybe later, I don't remember it was a long time ago). I'll admit, I was probably part of the cancer back then, but I was doing my best. It slowly morphed into something quite different over time. By around 2015 it was insufferable in many ways but still had pockets of excellence. By then though, I'd seen the writing on the wall and left. Nothing I've heard since makes me think I made a mistake.

Reminds me of the story of the Akkadians and the Nazis. I know it seems "what's the same between them... and how does it apply to this situation?" but the two groups shared an incredibly powerful ingroup preference and a violent hatred of outgroups, which I think is applicable to the postmodern woke left. This led to an inability to form any sort of alliances with most of their neighbors, leading to getting trampled by everyone else when war broke out for real. The Akkadians bragged in impressions that survive to this day about forcing their enemies to grind the bones of their wives and children. Everyone put aside their grievances to fight them.

Reading this twitter thread of a guy going "Maybe we shouldn't hate on straight young men quite so much" just reminds me of that. As the number of groups on the "hated" list grow, the forced alliance between everyone but the one group will also grow, and eventually even the mighty Akkadian empire fell, and the German war machine saw Berlin fall.

The clock ticks, and the ideology of the left kicks someone else out of their camp. The Jews are no longer considered part of the left after October 7th. East Asians do too well in school to stay in the camp. Indians are already half a foot out the door. Blacks who are just black are on their way out. Many Latinos are on their way out. Feminists who believe women exist in objective biological reality are out. Tick tock, soon there won't be many people left.

To be fair, not all radiation is the same. For example, you can see visible light (which is itself a form of electromagnetic radiation), but you can't see alpha, beta, or gamma rays or neutron radiation. Gamma rays will set off a radiation survey meter, but infrared radiation will not. Radio waves of all kinds are less potent than light, and light only becomes really dangerous at the higher parts of UV.

Now does this mean that there's no way cell phone radiation can cause cancer or other illnesses? Of course not, this universe is wide and broad and deep, and we should never assume we know everything about it. But on the other hand, it does mean you should be careful comparing things just because they're called the same thing. Most people wouldn't be scared of cancer from the light from a light bulb just because x-rays cause cancer.
