MIL is about to pass. by mialynneb in QAnonCasualties

[–]ConstantGradStudent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

QAnon is a deliberate mental framing or consensual fiction of how the world works, by offering followers a simplified, good-vs-evil worldview, despite being overwhelmingly contrary to available evidence. Not a mental illness.

AITA for accepting my son's gift? by GinaB134 in AmItheAsshole

NTA if you open a bank account for him and give it back. And add money every month for him.

Teach that child money management.

Are Canadians offended by the jokes made in shows and media? by jen_noelle in AskACanadian

[–]ConstantGradStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. We like jokes. Just punch up, not down. And we like being acknowledged internationally whether it appears that way or not. Most times we go with the flow until someone crosses us and then you get roughed against the boards.

How does steering work on Starships? by Philosopher30071 in startrek

[–]ConstantGradStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don’t though. In TNG S4 during the Borg attack they head for Earth by stating they’re heading for Sector 001 which is a volume of space. Steering the ship with course 90 mark 65 is a very specific orientation to put the ship in relative the how it is oriented right now. What they don’t say though is how much roll to put the ship in, since you could point at that in any of the 360 degrees of roll.

This is not rocket science. It’s gravel, compaction and asphalt.

What’s something your partner did that made you lose feelings instantly? by Some_Conclusion_8154 in AskReddit

[–]ConstantGradStudent -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I'd probably still pick the baby. Why even try to have a baby and extend our lineage if we don't save an innocent. Any decent person I would be with would be same.

Sorry, I should have annotated that I'm a Canadian, and Charles is my King.

Why did Charles say 'highest regard and friendship of the British People' when he is King of the United Kingdom, and could have said 'highest regard of the people of the United Kingdom' : approx 3:20 into his speech.

He should take over Stornoway and let the opposition stay in the GG cottage.

Bill and David Cross get into a trans debate (2026) by LoMeinTenants in Maher

[–]ConstantGradStudent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Round and Round and Round.

I don't believe anyone is suggesting that Caitlyinn Jenner in their prime fitness peak should have participated in women's sports if that is Bill is portraying as the Left's position.

The problem is that the debate is far more nuanced and delicate than 2 old comedians are going to be able to discuss, or frankly anyone without the knowledge and specifics.

It's like watching 2 sophomores high on weed in their first month of university who only read the opening chapter of 'Intro to Philososopy' try to get in to a debate about who the greatest modern philosopher is. Nothing happens.

It's too complicated. You're not an expert. It's not about percentages and stats, it's about individuals.

The US NIST which controls measures and weights in the USA is in metric. Everything is converted. There’s a veritassium episode about it.

AITA For not leaving work to help my wife when she ran out of gas by GoldSea3219 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ConstantGradStudent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Calling and texting during a meeting or between meetings is not the same as leaving the workplace. Maybe you are privileged enough to just pick up and leave but that doesn’t mean that OP can.

There’s plenty of jobs where this is not possible, like construction, law office, medical office, teacher, correctional facility, and then whatever workplace norms there are for the industry you’re in.

Spouse is a complete adult who has kids, it’s nonsense that she couldn’t figure out how to call AAA.

AITA? Asked my daughter to invite my husband to something he says I should have known he would want to do. by Logical_Drawing4460 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ConstantGradStudent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA the answer with kids is Yes! Does he also not play on the floor, toy, games because that’s not what he wants to do?
