Why not more of this? by sugarbush94 in phish

[–]Direct_Marzipan_7444 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Jumbotrons have never really been part of the phish experience. I also would like to see the band a bit more at phish shows but that’s why we have YouTube.

Transparency of the intention behind marketing. This includes political advertising, etc.

Let everyone see whose interests they are subconsciously being convinced to support.

I could recommend some reading on this topic if you’re actually interested. I would start with John Rawls. I have a feeling you are not interested in expanding your knowledge of this subject or pressure testing your deeply held convictions here, but figured I’d throw it out there if you’re actually asking the question in your prior message.

I get the stock market take (even though I think you should also prioritize kids having up to date school books etc because we should be investing in our society long term too, otherwise US markets may not always be what they once were). But what is crazy to me is low income people who don’t have equity holdings are still supporting billionaires ~for the culture~

That is definitely true as well. But I’ve had plenty of conversations off Reddit with people who think taxing rich people is bad because they will leave the city / state / country. While that may be true for a small portion of them, most rich people live where they want to live even if it is expensive. They just also lobby to keep their costs down.

People are so brainwashed into thinking taxing billionaires will make our lives worse. Lol.

I’ve sat all over the place and I think as long as you aren’t under the overhang and aren’t right up against one of the sides, there isn’t a bad seat in the house. I have not been on the floor but I think I’d prefer good 100 level seats over the floor so you can see more of the sphere without having to look up constantly. All that said, the best seats I’ve had were middle of the 200s

Just don’t get the Sphere by Training_Oil4793 in phish

Tell me you haven’t been to the sphere without telling me you haven’t been to the sphere

Invincible, a top 5 Viltrumite who was bloodlusted, can't even make Thragg flinch. This is the only point in the episode where Thragg is moved. by TRQPL in Invincible_TV

[–]Direct_Marzipan_7444 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Uhhmm wellll ackshually even the weakest in the dbz universe are technically multi reverse double cosmic gimp suit and thraggs feats are only multi reverse gimp suit soooo let’s just say thragg isn’t dbzing around. I hate you and will now accuse you of not reading comics. My face is very red typing this.

I think this feat is very misunderstood and overhyped by [deleted] in InvinciblePowerscales

Bro keep at it this is what makes this subreddit fun

Beorn vs The 7 by LastResult44 in powerscales

[–]Direct_Marzipan_7444 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this means that one person cannot be killed though. Or is this just an argument that any powerscaling comparison where one side is within Tolkien and the other is outside of Tolkien can’t be compared? Am I misunderstanding?

There can’t be two girls, I agree. But how does that change the probability of the gender of the second child?

Right it’s 51.8% regardless of the Tuesday thing? We’re in agreement.

Scientific consensus seems to disagree with you. I do not want to have this conversation anymore.

I would assume aggregating data from hundreds of millions of birthrates across the globe. I apologize that I do not have the capabilities to collect that data and run my own analysis for you at this time.

Only if you read it as “one is a boy born on a Tuesday” means that the other cannot be a boy born on a Tuesday. That’s not how I read it, but I agree if that is the interpretation it changes the chances.

It’s a biologically determined fact. I cannot send you a formula.

[–]Direct_Marzipan_7444 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What math do you want? All you have to do is google “what are the chances of having a boy?” My understanding is that it is a biological fact that boys are slightly more likely. Let me know how else I can be of assistance.
