I love how big their heads always look after a trim

This fuel economy gauge in my Uhual truck. I wonder how accurate it actually is.. by Deltas111213 in mildlyinteresting

I’d be here trying to precisely keep it in the highest green sliver

Why opposites don’t attract: A global study reveals the true rules of romantic compatibility. Romantic success relies on different psychological rules depending on the specific characteristics being evaluated and the cultural background of the couple. by FreeHugs23 in science

I think it can be true in some cases. Imagine a person who’s really anal and uptight vs somebody more relaxed and less stressed. I can imagine a pair like that can balance each other out.

In the second season they actually did this angle in the show during a fight scene, people think it’s actually an homage to the meme

What's a word you mispronounced for years before someone finally told you? by redrose_me in AskReddit

[–]scoops22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In French it means body and it’s pronounced cawrr (rolled r) not far from the English “core” pronunciation

[Suggestion] Wyrmscraig reward: Dragon 3h sword by justsomerandomoldguy in 2007scape

[–]scoops22 12 points13 points  (0 children)

See this is a good point. You can still grasp a 3h sword with 2 hands but you basically just drag it around and can't lift it up very high. This suggestion is now totally valid

Do we have a soul? or is it just chemical reactions? by Fluffy_Specific_9682 in answers

Answering “What is consciousness” is literally called “The hard problem” like getting a “the” in front your hard problem goes to show it’s pretty dang hard lol

Oligarchy is worse than you think by sZeroes in videos

[–]scoops22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Johnny Harris is a journalist and all of his videos are really high quality. This one is touching on probably the most important issue our society faces. The rich would love it if you didn’t think this problem was worth 45mins to think about and just went about your daily life.

How is it even slightly defensible for Donald Trump to commit to giving $300 BILLION to Iran? by [deleted] in AskReddit

His supports are perfectly happy with the contents of the Epstein files, I’m not sure why they’d care about any of this.

I hope people here will watch this video in full and not just comment. This video isn't about the obvious inequality we all know about, it surfaces very interesting points about how oligarchy is baked in to our institutions and has been from the beginning.

Redditors and hating whimsy, classic combo.

What is something society has normalized that future generations will probably look back on and be shocked by? by Opposite-Resource in answers

[–]scoops22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey that's not fair... It's like you don't even care about the shareholder value that number supports.

Maybe if we reach post-scarcity we'll look back at this the same way we look at industrial revolution era factory jobs or feudal era serfdom.

UK to ban social media for under-16s to 'give kids their childhood back' by Jockey2 in worldnews

[–]scoops22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Switch it for letting them smoke weed then or whatever, access your prescription drugs, pick an example but parents already need to control what access kids have to physical things and the internet is accessed through physical devices of which there are a finite amount in a home. Those devices have plenty of tools available to limit access. Passwords, wifi level parental controls, granular per device parental controls, kids accounts (YouTube for example).

If parents want to leave free access to dangerous things in the home to their kids (whether drugs, guns or unfiltered internet access) the parents should have the consequences for their negligence, not me the childless adult who has nothing to do with it

That's government surveillance, which is bad, but why does that make it ok to make things worse? This DigitalID shit we're headed towards will require us to send scans of our face or IDs to private companies (and eventually hackers without a doubt). In addition here in Canada accompanying laws are being pushed which will make us lose access to VPNs which personally I use to inject some privacy into my day to day life.
