Thank you

Even though it’s something that’s technically correct on a philosophical level for SOME outlier patients, and in an ideal world and ideal system we could implement it well, I don’t think our system is anywhere close right now. Working in the healthcare system I don’t know anyone who’s eager for this or who knows how we’re going to sort through the massive haystack of innappropriate requests this will trigger, to correctly identify the few " needles" that it’s actually ethical for.

Can you link that quote? Curious what the source is?

And they’d be starting and stopping all over the place, so the kind of acceleration needed to reach that speed would kill any known organic being via g forces before they’d even suffer from the fire. But he’s one of the fae, so data on them is lacking I guess.

Absolutely braindead on the part of the league once again. Hope this gains lots of media traction and they’re forced to answer even more uncomfortable and embarrassing questions about it.

The difference I’ve seen is that people generally seem to be able to call out the crimes or bad behaviour of any of these governments without being called ‘racist to _____ ethnic group’. It has to go both ways, people need to stop blaming the crimes of Israeli governing party on the Jewish people as a whole, AND supporters of the that party’s actions need to stop labelling any criticism of them as antisemitic.

Why is no one choosing 7? Xray vision is absolutely going to be super useful. After that its a tossup between 2 and 3.

What are fuck pants? If they rule as much as kilts and tunics I want some.

I know it’s not the point of the question, but remember whatever happens is 100% the villain’s fault, not yours.

Looks like an N value of 1 though. Hopefully results are replicable. I’ll wait for the meta-analysis.

Yikes. You’ve painted a vivid picture of the mindset that most people are in when they get addicted to drugs. Even if what you’re using isn’t inherently addictive thats a vulnerable place to be in. Hope you can find some healthy sources of help.

What? That’s their sell-out pop song. The rest of their stuff is way better.

Found the anaerobic bacteria trolling as a human. Get outta here!

I get eaten by the worms… and weird fishes…

As you say in your first sentence, language is by consensus. And, the long-standing consensus among ichthyologists is to use exactly this terminology, and you’ll find it consistently across the scientific literature for generations now.

We’re running on theory alone here, but if thats true, then its too inert to be reabsorbed by your kidneys and therefore would pass into your urine and leave your body that way. Also how is it causing cancer if it’s inert?

This thorough, week long investigation has concluded that it was kind of humorous.

Well jokes on them, I used it to improve my resilience and adaptability anyway!

Yep. All the arguments from the time of how the free market will be better, keep aging like milk, as moves like this progressively whittle down any semblance of competition.

Jesus Christ this thread. The technicalities aren’t the point. You are allowed to find happiness where you can in an imperfect world that contains suffering. It doesn’t mean you’ll be complacent to injustice. Fighting against injustice can be done without thinking the world is hopeless dogshit. There’s satisfaction that can be justifiably had, through means other than smug superiority at knowing all the depressing truths of the world, or the sympathy of others for your problems. We feed ourselves so much rage and sadness via the internet, can we not have a palate-cleanser like this without chewing it up and spitting it out, and then going back to gorging on more?
