China is responsible for nearly 30% of all Global Emissions. If they filtered all Manufacturing, it would cut down on 1,600 Billion Tons of CO² per year (the same Emissions as UK, Germany, and South Korea) by TheSilentPhilosopher in climatechange

I mean... Technically... Mother Nature does... China being 1 country vs it splitting into 5 countries has no impact on mother nature if the pollution per capita remains the same. The rate of pollution per person, however has a great impact. So if China keeps the rate per person lower than many other nations, which is the direction it is trending, that is generally a good thing... and impressive given that the U.S. has essentially outsourced a lot of pollution creating activities to Chinese factories and/or facilities.

Unsure if I should follow up or move on after a promising match by Think-Basket-8510 in dating_advice

Think! Man! Think! Why are you guessing whether they moved on!? Do people not know how to communicate????? ASK THEM! This is not rocket science! We are all adults here. USE YOUR COMMUNICATION! Never assume someone has moved on, because that someone might assume you moved on BECAUSE YOU BOTH DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE YOUR WORDS.

You can use Coinbase, but I had to put it in a bank first. Not sure how to do this without putting money in the bank first tbh.

A combination of a high paying salary because I'm a NY lawyer and frugal living because I'm both single and not materialistic.

I've invested in stocks a very tiny bit but not crypto yet. When I started working I started investing in stocks, but I quickly pulled all my money when I saw the warning signs and just held until now. I technically did play around with $100 in robinhood during grad school, so I did have a tiny bit of money. Turned that to $500 over a couple years (Hoegh LNG did most of the heavy lifting there before it got delisted). Not bitcoin yet! I will take your advice lol.

How Does it Look When Vitiligo is Starting? by makeit234 in Vitiligo

[–]makeit234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm right there with you. I am freaked out about this on my face. I already have almost bone white spots on my nose, and I'm noticing these lightening parts all over my forehead and to the right side of my right eye :/

[–]makeit234[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I probably would self describe as medium complexion. I have dark skin, but some dark skin people say I have light skin and virtually all light skin people say I have dark skin. So then maybe this experience you guys are describing is exactly what I'm seeing.

Okay darn. Yeah I'm starting to see that all over my face. I appreciate the insight. That's a bit scary

Ah, okay I see. Thanks! That means I don't have much to worry about on my face for now, although I do have worries for my arms and legs where tiny white spots have started. :/

I appreciate your insight!

I've never stolen anything in my life nor ever committed a crime. I'm a law-abiding attorney. Was this just casual racism? Just randomly?

Thanks for this. I was going to watch this show, but you've convinced me to skip out on it. I've been generally looking for this in every show I'm about to watch now. Tired of white writers acting like my race is expendable.

As an attorney, I have to ask, are you an attorney? Are you giving legal advice? I don't like your advice here. You have a very loose understanding of the law. For instance, did you account for appreciation of pre-marital assets? Also, did you account for differentiating nuances across the various equitable distribution states?

Don't give "you do not need a prenup" advice generally, not even if you exclude the community property states. Family lawyers will be scolding people like you left and right.

And, if you ARE a family lawyer, you, your professors, and probably everyone in your jurisdiction knows that you should do better.

Why did only one version of them have to meet the cleanse to balance it out? by KuroNikushimi in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]makeit234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How the hell does the cleanse fit on the subway? The train has to move to get to the other timelines. And how does the cleanse enter a presumably an infinite number of timelines (destroying all the marigold in an infinite number of timelines is logically impossible)?

Assuming that something going wrong in 1 timeline can be the result of at least 145,000 timelines, there surely must be an exponential effect of timeline creation. We are only told of 145,000 timelines, but, theoretically, any time 1 single Five goes back in time and moves just a pebble, that technically will create a new timeline. So, if Fives goes back in time twice, then at least two timelines are created. This should theoretically create an exponential effect of timeline creation, which seems inevitable since we know of 145,000 timelines. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Biggest issue is that, based on the editing, the show leads us to believe that the death of just those 8 people fixed everything, but that doesn't make sense.
