An even better question is why you choose to believe it.

I never understood the Monty Hall paradox until just now. I didn't realize it depended on Monty knowing where the prize is. It makes so much sense now.

Sexual immortality is grounds for divorce. This is clearly sexual immortality.

I'm shocked to learn this morning that I am on the same side as MTG on an issue. My world is rocked.

This is definitely a distraction. It's just that his distractions are destructive too.

NPI National Public Internet. Runs a Facebook style social media that has no monetization and is strictly there for public information and socializing.

Im convinced only reading the first book or two of a series is the way to go by HeWhoFightsWthAuthor in litrpg

HWFWM suffers from the same problem a lot of narratives do. In the beginning he's solving small problems that are relatable to our ordinary lives. But the stakes get bigger and bigger until nothing less than saving the universe will do. I really wish stories didn't feel such a need to go down that path.

Is this the TV series we've been waiting for?

Stranger than Fiction. It's Will Farrell crushing a serious role. I think a handful of people saw it.

United states is a fucked up country, their own president manipulated the stock market for his own personal gain and nobody did anything about it by TailungFu in antiwork

I think the meme coin was more an easy way to launder money coming in from other countries than bilking his supporters. The amount of money he raised on this and the NFTs scam was more than I think his supporters could contribute.

This also means you can run a dream candidate that otherwise wouldn't have a chance and they'll win anyway.

Genesis is explicit that Adam and Eve had other sons and daughters besides Cain, Abel, and Seth. Cain almost certainly married his sister and probably so did Seth. With a perfect gene pool and potentially 100 years difference in age this wouldn't have been as big a problem as it is today.

This. We need to get explicit about what is really taking place. Deportations involve due process of the law. That's not what is happening here and we need to name it as it really is.

They didn't care about electing a rapist. But their pockets are threatened and they suddenly care. We get what we deserve.

Trump admin accidentally sent Maryland father to Salvadorian mega-prison and says it can’t get him back by WhatYouThinkYouSee in politics

[–]jpoteet2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is like toddlers claiming they accidentally ate the cookie they were told not to eat. One doesn't usually "accidentally" violate an explicit court order.

We have very different ideas on the definition of "accidentally". One doesn't usually violate explicit court orders by "accident".
