Research High Energy Radio Frequency (HERF) technology as well.

What if you wanted to program your toasting levels on your smart toaster, but didn’t want to cross the kitchen?

Wish they had a blooper reel called TATTACA.

(That was all five of you biochemists out there)

Dominique is showing signs of borderline personality disorder.

Lawful evil or chaotic evil, depending on if that behavior is allowed in that society.

Imagine China as a company. There is a board of directors, and Xi is the head of that board. The board runs a lot of lower ranking boards that control all the aspects of government operation.

Have a problem with your plumbing? Go to your local province or city board. A whole region experiencing drought? The regional board has an action plan that they impose on the local boards to implement with government regional help. Xi is responsible for steering the overarching policy of China moving forward as a country. His role is to say “make China control the South China Sea and receive deference from those countries” to the military, and then it’s their problem to figure out how to harass shipping.

You get promoted to higher boards for good work, and the board votes for its leader. Read Xi’s promotion history. I would die after that many years of office politics, myself.

Glad to hear you doing this. My daughter refuses to learn, but I keep telling her it’s so when the dumb boy pulls out a gun at a party, she can ask to see it, and clear the chamber, take the clip, safe it, and hand it (minus the clip) back.

I know! Or as a president even, when a twelve year old is just fine.

Make sure to only click on the men… not the women, and the children too.

Republicans aren’t conservatives since the tea party.

Inaction that causes a harm is an action. Say for example you’re a muslim that doesn’t vote for a female candidate because you feel she doesn’t do enough to help your people. If the other candidate actively allows great harm to your people, you failing to vote for the female candidate is helping empower the harm on your people.

I just hope we never see this example in real life.

Oh man, Rush. I vaguely remember his downfall from painkiller addiction, and he was some sort of radio pundit.

I hate to bring it up, but the second amendment is a law.

And that’s the problem with the corruption we’re seeing. The poor of both left and right are seeing decisions favor the rich and powerful at the expense of what they believed were their rights. We need to correct the list of the ship of state before people start to work against it openly.

He won’t be in a history book; in five years nobody will talk about him.

The method that totally wouldn’t have been used was to have a foreign ally in Five Eyes track all cell phones and correlate the information with security cameras. Then they share the intelligence with the US. Technically on the edge of legal but they know the shit storm if americans generally knew how surveilled they are. We literally would hand them all our related files, ask them to spot suspects, and hand us back the answer. The soaking version of surveillance.

Had kids at 36 and 37. Feel this was a good age, as I’d done my adventuring and world exploring, and now they’re young teens and I’m in my 50’s. I’d be hesitant to have a kid now, as the sleepless nights of the first few years would hit really hard.

Did you really interrupt my minecraft game to make me read that?

You can’t delete a book

People are dying to volunteer.

If you could put in like ten minutes a day planning how to stop the Trisolarian invasion, we’d appreciate it.
