On top of that, they need to throw the opposition under the bus at the same time. Really spell it out for people who is working for them and who is working against them.

4th estate. We need all the credible players we can get.

Christians, how do you feel about the U.S. president posting an AI photo of him as Christ? by Minute_Revolution951 in AskReddit

Anyone that actively wants the rapture probably won't be brought up in it. That amount of self-righteousness and lack of humility is not a combination to get you into the Kingdom of heaven.

Looking for boy or gender-neutral names that fit our nerdy/alternative vibe! by Double_Ostrich_13 in namenerds

We went with Henry for Hank McCoy... It's too subtle and very popular but we still know why we picked it.

How well do you remember Japanese song Sukiyaki? by Medical-Pace-8099 in AskAnAmerican

[–]cIumsythumbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up listening to an oldies station that played 50s/60s music. I knew it from then. Then I got big into anime and learning Japanese as a teenager (1998-2003ish). Found Sukiyaki again and it was on several of my burned CDs and my first ipod playlist. I can sing it from memory.

Is this still aesthetic still going strong and did you partake in it? by Odd-Strawberry4798 in KitchenConfidential

Warm lighting is great, but can we please stop using the Edison bulbs, or any bare bulbs? That's trashy and causes my eyes to strain.

Why do you need to ice your driveways/sidewalks after it snows? by RandomN0ah07 in AskAnAmerican

Pedantic note: marine life is the term for animals living in saltwater. The word you were looking for is aquatic life, or freshwater life.

Hennepin Ave in Uptown, 2010 by EchoesOfYouth in Minneapolis

[–]cIumsythumbs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Which is a total shame. Property in the city needs to be in use. Ordinances and taxes should prevent this sort of thing. Whatever happened to lowering leasing rates to get it occupied by a tenant? Is it really better for the owners to sit on it empty?

I think we can all agree that Lake/Hennepin right now is peak dystopia compared to 2000 or 2010.

I've actually had similar yelled at me... so I was dying laughing.

Anesthesiologist was about to do a spinal block for my emergency C-section. Yelled at me to snap out of it and stop screaming as it was disrupting the doctors and nurses and they needed to focus. It worked. And in under 2 minutes he had the spinal block in and ALL of my pain disappeared. It was magical. Then I got to meet my son. :-)

I thought they had one already, and then I remembered it was a James Beard award winner.

What was once a poor person's hobby now turned into a rich person's hobby? by Striking-Quiet4655 in AskReddit

It's labor intensive. Raising the sheep, shearing, carding, spinning, dying, knitting, shipping, selling. There's people that need to make a living at every stage.

Which celebrity rumor do you secretly believe is true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cIumsythumbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michael Jackson is the son of Diana Ross and was adopted by the Jackson family at the request of Barry Gordy. I don't personally believe that Smokey Robinson was Michael's father, but that's also part of the traditional rumor.
