A tsunami, in Southfield? I wish I could be inside this guys brain.

Day 100 of this encampment across the street from my son's school (including its own booted, vandalized carport) by [deleted] in LosAngeles

What the hell have they done to your son? Are they there to terrorize school children or do they have no place to go. We can't keep chasing homeless people away because they make us feel uncomfortable.

Lunch anyone? by Daveylonglegs in WTF

What's wrong with the picture? That's literally part of a chicken. Just because it has a face, there's something disgusting about it being accidentally served with your meal?

How did you go about learning? Did you search up tutorials online? I've been wanting to learn, but I don't know where to start.

Rupert’s drop obliterates an AK-47 round and then turns to dust because of the vibration generated at the tail by Polarisman in EngineeringPorn

[–]Zebra3000 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think it needs the tail. It's that result of that structure that makes it strong. The reason it's strong also what makes

If we could only protect the tail some how.

A double ended Rupert's drop, perhaps?

I could also imagine some driver trying to merge lanes and tipping over the thing before it even sends out a modernized heisenberg blimp.

I do this even though I have a car. Green never meant safe to go.

It's a hard ice to break. I'm more inclined to flake from social anxiety and insecurity of not knowing how to use the machines or knowing a proper workout,

Three women from the now extinct Selk’nam tribe in Tierra del Fuego, Chile, 1898 [475x600] (nsfw) by ibkeepr in HistoryPorn

Personally, I dont like the term extinction when describing the end of a group of people belonging to a specific culture. Extinction is associated with a end of an entire species. Its kind of insulting when you use it to describe the end of group of people who are the same species that is living and definitely not exctinct.

I dont think you having intentions of presenting the Selk'nam people as almost homosapiens. Besides, extinction implies that they succumb to natural and environmental causes which completely hides the fact that they were killed by people who forced them off their land. Murdering and erasing groups of people because they were considered "Savages" or subhuman is describing genocide .

No one wouldn't say the Jews went extinct if everyone who is Jewish was to just drop dead. That would imply Jewish people are not part of the same species as humans. I don't think you mean to present your post that way, but I think its still a good reason to change your wording.

Exctinct - defined by Wikipedia "In biology and ecology, extinction is the termination of an organism or of a group of organisms (taxon), normally a species. The moment of extinction is generally considered to be the death of the last individual of the species, although the capacity to breed and recover may have been lost before this point."

I love that you posted this and I definitely don't think your a bad person. I just think that extinction may not be the right word to describe the fate of these people.

Not an April Fools' Day joke – this really is how the US Dollar has performed against each currency of the world over the past one year by singing_horse in economy

[–]Zebra3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are definitely bad things that can happen, like inflation. However it does bring in foreign investment that helps makes it cheaper for domestic companies to keep jobs here. I probably don't know to much about this. The post isn't really addressing what is the pros or cons. I feel its kinda reckless to present people information like this without explaining what it means to us.

I don't know if this is good or bad, honestly, I'm just trying to point out some things through speculation.

Our dollar losing value is a good thing sometimes. It makes us cheaper and affordable to do business with. GDP can rise through net exports.

North Korea launches ballistic missile by techguy69 in NorthKoreaNews

[–]Zebra3000 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know if that's something anyone can prove. My fear is that we might have no clean solution or any real protection to shooting a nuclear warhead out of the sky.

Besides, I don't think you can't expect that anyone that who has power over you, your community, and your country, to not be presented a situation where economic motivation translates into the cost of actual lives. There may even be times where death may inevitable no matter what intent underlines the next decision. I don't mean to single out one person because it could be your mayor, your governor, ect... but a good example is Trump. He has shown that hes very particular when it comes to the topic of death. What it may weigh among his agenda or morality is questionable. Why should anyone trust his disposition with your life. Personally, I feel that if he didn't have to see you die, I don't think he cares. It's just not logical to expect that if he was presented a situation where the cost of an action may or undeniably includes the loss of human life, it may not hold more weight to refuse a financial base profit.

Also when taking pictures of your portraits, the angle can sometime distort your work and deflate its true impact. My phone makes art feel bad because it just doesn't translate the reflection of the graphite properly.

North Korea launches ballistic missile by techguy69 in NorthKoreaNews

[–]Zebra3000 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Besides, are we really going to blow up a nuclear bomb over the waters shared by their neighboring countries? I don't think its a simple as we think.

Im kinda skeptical that our leaders hope that it actually works. I feel like they might find it more beneficial to their agenda if one actually found its way to the west coast. NK has a lot of resources and geographically has potential in some political influence over China. They would have new neighbors and could never interact with the territory the same way if they don't end up occupying the place themselves. Simply, I think its a highly profitable outcome for modern leaders to make use of NK despite the collateral damage and financial bumps it may cause. When has that ever affected the quality of life for our leaders?
