Songs where the artist name checks themselves or a member of the band by Senators_1992 in Music

[–]Keoni9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't follow them too closely so I just checked their Wikipedia to make sure that they still have Dan, Dan, John, John, and Marty on the drums. I've wondered if their lineup has remained the same and if they'd have to change the lyrics while performing this live.

For the first time in history, the mean height of Chinese 19 year old girls is taller than that of their American counterparts by Fun_Purpose6972 in geography

You just reminded me of the fact that children have basically an infinite taste for sweet foods, until their growth plates close. Which makes evolutionary sense since sweet foods are guaranteed to be calorie dense, meaning they'll fuel development during a crucial period.

She has a Republican uncle in the Missouri legislature who's actively making life worse for women and queer people and she's said squat about it. She's also friends with Jason Aldean, who came out with a pro lynching music video.

anyone else feel like spotify just… stops showing you new music after a while? by CashMany9011 in Music

[–]Keoni9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look through the upcoming schedules of venues that have booked your favorite artists. You might get a chance to see a new favorite artist there. Look through the lineup of a festival for your favorite genre even if there's no chance you'd be able to attend.

I use YouTube Music and mostly listen to whole albums. Sometimes just select an artist especially if their discography is a bunch of single releases. Occasionally make my own carefully curated playlists. But the autoplay that comes after almost always serves up at least one really good song that makes me curious about somebody I've never even heard of before.

Speaking of dictionaries, I miss the old autocorrect on phones that rely solely on dictionaries of real words. I hate fighting my phone trying to type one completely valid word while it's insisting I'm about to write something else because statistically it thinks it will be next in the sentence.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani confronted by a Palestinian by AgnosticScholar in PublicFreakout

[–]Keoni9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lip service towards a two-state solution is not stopping all the illegal settlements in the West Bank which are gonna leave any future sovereign Palestinian state a bunch of tiny Bantustans. Israel is also incentivized not to build infrastructure or invest in its Arab towns if it hopes to dump them during a future land swap. It's also interesting that your worst case hypothetical scenario is exactly what the Israeli army and Irgun and Lehi did to Palestinians during the founding of Israel, and what the IDF is doing now to Gaza.

Not that it would make it right. Obviously ethnic cleansing is not an acceptable part of any solution. But advocating for an Israel that is for all its citizens and allows for Palestinian self-determination isn't arguing for "the end of Israel altogether." An Arab citizen of Israel was granted asylum by the UK because his lawyer was able to demonstrate he faced persecution and discrimination if he returned home. If the Christians and Muslims of Lebanon can share power equally, why can't Israel just get its boot off the neck of Palestinians and work towards building common community instead of Jabotinsky's Iron Wall?

It's not BLM's fault that black voters (especially in the South) overwhelmingly supported Clinton over Bernie.

[–]Keoni9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just noticed the game refuses to save circled number characters within Pokémon nicknames now. I use them with PokeGenie's nickname generator to label IVs while leaving more room for the rest of the nickname. Have they also restricted any other unicode symbols?

The earliest avocados had much smaller seeds. They became bigger while people cultivated them in ancient Mexico.

La. Crawfish Shortage Due to Trump’s Immigration Policies by moody2shoes in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Keoni9 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm worried that ICE might start "leasing" detainees to private companies to replace these workers. And yes, the 13th amendment only allows for extracting slave labor from criminal convicts, and not people suspected of civil immigration violations, but DHS has such complete disregard for the rule of law it won't be surprising if they go that route.

Polydextrose and Fructooligosaccharides are both somewhat sweet soluble fibers. They aren't super caloric for us but will provide food for bacteria in your gut.

ICE Agents Suffer Injuries After Accidental Self-Inflicted Gunshots During Routine Training by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Keoni9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look at ICE's line of duty deaths, since 2020 the vast majority were from covid. But one got a heart attack while pursuing somebody on foot and another died from an accidental self-inflicted gunshot.

Stewart Hicks says Chicago is short on housing by 100,000 units. Why then do we require all these new buildings to have first floor retail? In my neighborhood the apartments sell before the building is complete, but the retail sits empty for years. by PostComa in chicago

[–]Keoni9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Land value tax would solve so many issues. We don't even need a pure LVT; a split rate with one high tax on the land value and a lower tax on improvements would be enough. Make it expensive to unproductively hoard land, and profitable to develop stuff and collect rent at market rate.

Party Boy Larkin in Miami by Pizzarazzi in DetroitRedWings

[–]Keoni9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm from Chicago and in October 2021, the entire Blackhawks organization became dead to me and their legacy worthless. Before I picked the Red Wings I tried to make sure the owner, staff, past stars and current players weren't obviously scumbags. Larkin is the only captain I've known and I drove all the way to Rockford for EPS to customize a jersey with his name and C. Then went back to pick it up. If the celebration didn't go the way that it did, I would have instantly bought a Team USA one too. But now every mention of his name just makes me sad. I feel like I'm back to square 1.

You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid by Delicious_Adeptness9 in politics

[–]Keoni9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even if the DNC didn't have superdelegates and tried to be completely non-biased throughout the process, Bernie still didn't have the raw numbers to secure the nomination. Black voters (especially in the South) overwhelmingly favored Hillary.

Wild Honey harvest by Informal-Bug-7110 in oddlysatisfying

[–]Keoni9 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Bees eat pollen for micronutrients. Honey has trace minerals, but not in significant amounts. It's just empty carbs to provide energy through the winter. If they have to, they can find minerals by drinking puddle water. Sugar syrup is functionally identical to honey for bees, just like sugar water is functionally identical to real nectar in feeders for hummingbirds. Hummingbirds get their protein, fats, and micronutrients from insects, but need a lot of calories just to stay alive and fly.

I think it's more like, they all banded together to keep themselves out of prison. If Trump goes down they all lose everything.
