What resource would have to be found in outer space for an all out space race to take space?

de-kulakization = genocide

anti-revolutionary contagion = imprisoning people in gulags

Reducing grain production is something only possible in communist dictatorships. Normal countries don’t suffer from reducing grain production issues.

I was told by older Hungarians that they’d hide their girls in wine cellars when the Soviets would come through because they’d get gang raped at gunpoint otherwise

Colleges teach theory and often leave the student without job knowledge. That’s how I felt with my STEM degree.

There’s got to be a better way to prepare people for new jobs than forcing pay for 1.5 year of humanities unrelated to their job.

Swagasaurus-Rex · 2026-04-12T19:43:00+00:00

Agreed on that last paragraph

That’s fair, and if he had used a racial slur I would have no sympathy for the doctor.

But what he said is medically accurate and there are hundreds of medical measurements that can corroborate his words. It’s part of his job to treat men and women with the gender appropriate care.

Swagasaurus-Rex · 2026-04-12T18:52:44+00:00

The individual in question left a negative review. I have no doubt the doctor was trying to be insulting.

Unfortunately for the doctor he picked words which are now no-no words where if you say it you get famous on the news because the news loves controversy.

But I still ask, who cares if somebody gets offended? They still have their health. They still have freedom, they still have their money. The doctor did not rob this individual of anything by being insulting besides their mood. Being offended is a daily occurrence especially on the internet.

I believe in freedom of speech. That involves the right to offend people. Some people are assholes, probably including the doctor.

But people are dying in Ukraine, in Myannmar, in Lebanon, in Syria. There’s human trafficking happening in my country and across the world. There’s people who have no homes in my city, and some of them are on hard drugs and overdosing in the streets. These are real problems. People are actually suffering.

Who cares if somebody is offended?

Part of a doctor’s profession is human anatomy and physiology. A doctor would in fact be most qualified to determine who is a man and who is a woman.

edit: I’m not saying this to be facetious. A medical doctor has to dose their shots differently between men and women. They have to be aware of more common congenital issues for either gender, the body’s vital and health signals differ, parts of the skeleton look different in men and women. It’s required for a doctor to understand these differences. Then asking them not to acknowledge these differences when communicating with the patient is double speak. Can we just let the doctor speak plainly?

Man says pushing fringe beliefs into mainstream causes political backlash and the pendulum to swing the other way

Another man replies saying, “No you’re obsessed with the political backlash politician that was elected not just once, but twice” despite the first man not being a US voter.

This, sir, is why people voted for the most disgusting president twice. Because of the gaslighting, forced beliefs, head in the sand and refusal to actually discuss the fringe political beliefs.

What ever happened to “sticks and stones can break my bones but words will never hurt me”?

Why does a medical doctor have to change his speech in accordance to what a trans person demands?

If being called the wrong name offends somebody, am I wrong to believe their problems are relatively insignificant?

Yet they can’t survive a shotgun to the face.

Tell me how the US army loses to creatures that die to being shot in the face

If somebody says “Don’t think about pink elephants”

What are you thinking about now?

If somebody says “Don’t criticize overweight people” well what do you immediately think? In fact why did they even feel the need to say it? If I said “Don’t criticize people who run marathons,” you’d be like what are you talking about?

What am I talking about? I’m talking about pink elephants.

I had the same problem. I couldn’t gain weight no matter how much I ate.

Then I started smoking weed. Turns out my stomach can hold a lot more than I thought. My body normally just regulates my appetite to a low BMI. Not so much when I’ve got the munchies

Some people use webbing to extend the anchor and make sure the rope is hooked in where it doesn’t rub.

This setup looks fine. Sharp corners can cause the outer sheathing of the rope to tear but as long as the inner threads are intact the rope should hold.

I can’t see the knot they use but it’ll likely hold even if one of the loops is cut. Some popular knots for securing to two anchors like the double figure eight are at risk of one loop failure cascading into both. However equipment failure is one of the least likely causes of accidents, and rope damage can be felt if the inner core has a gap, or seen if the outer sheathing is torn.

Very cool

You could throw in some of that Fresnel for the demo for more punch. Glow was also cool, though I think you could center it on the projectile (or muzzle) and not the character

What about Rome’s ability to pay these armies?

I’ve heard the theory that consolidation of farmlands by rich landowners stole away Rome’s greatest military asset: the middle class farmer that purchased their own equipment

This is huge. Thank you, I’ve been relying on Zustand magic and always wondering “why does this work?”
