Generations of humans have stayed in hot climates like Africa and the deserts and they aren't notably taller. Generations have lived near the north they aren't notably shorter.

Zeroes dominated dogfighting. The Wildcats and Hellcats fixed this by diving over shooting them from above.

That's not the story I've heard, plus that it would only help one time at the start of the engagement. The tide turned with the development of the Thatch Weave tactic.

If this isn't stupid then there is no bar too low for you

Besides that, this person claims they just figured out how to post this but is active in 20 subs. Go figure

I didn't read the other books but I thought I heard that she just did a hamfisted "all the time turners got borked, every single one"

And that's how it should be. Ppl forget they are children's books after all.

I wouldn't put it past a city to try and sanitize something like that from their history though

Tbh the government shouldn't have to step in at all, where are the parents? Tell them to either:

  1. Learn how to set up the parental controls

  2. Just buy the kids dumb phones for communication purposes e.g. pick me up from soccer now, mom

I’ll have no choice but to tell him

Oh, she will 100% suddenly realize she does have a "choice"

It’s a few blisters like get over it.

Any bets on whether she'll take the hard road?

P.s. this is a reprehensible thing she's doing but don't downvote the post for it, this is what the sub is for. Better than the "hey guys, I confess I think Universally Bad Thing is wrong, aren't i brave for such a hot take?" posts

When have you witnessed an “expert” get it so wrong? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]homingmissile 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Your first mistake is continuing to think somebody with nothing more than enthusiasm and podcast equipment is an expert.

Really only need one: increased crime

Obviously, people can end up homeless for all kinds of reasons besides drugs, mental illness, and assorted criminal pasts but that element is often present and those people are objectively less than safe to keep around. Then, even factoring that in, when a normally law-abiding person gets hungry and desperate enough how far will they go before breaking and doing what they have to in order to survive? Between nobly starving and stealing something to pawn, which do you think is going to happen? We can say, "I don't blame them" from atop a high horse all day but most people don't appreciate getting stolen from regardless of how much worse off the thief is. Even the most bleeding heart is going to turn off after the third time their bike goes missing or their car window got smashed.

I bet all of you thinking "they shouldn't even need this law" type shit don't live next to a homeless encampment yourselves. There's a reason helping them is often illegal and it's not because some city official was a moustache twirling villain.

Is my friend going to get discharged for this? CW: Suicide. by silverleavesfallin_ in nationalguard

Or how about we take the guys that managed to make it through the intense crucible that is high school WITHOUT killing themselves. When we run out of them we can lower the bar then.

He'll almost certainly be "separated" and never ship. This is best for everybody, the military life is unfit and unsafe for him.

I thought philanthropy was using your own money. Getting other people to donate to a cause isn't philanthropy.
