I'm also curious if it has anything unsavory to modern sensibility. For a point of reference, "Jump Jim Crow" was written in 1828, but it had yet to become the major hit it was destined to be and wasn't published in shee

On one hand it would be amazing to revive an extinct species, but the reasons given seem like crap. Reintroducing it into the wild? How is that a good idea? Something something climate change? They went extinct because the pre-Industrial cl

What are you translating with? Google seems to get the right result by translating "我能吞下玻璃而不伤身体" as "I can swallow glass without hurting myself" Of course, that doesn't mean Google is correct.

Cute, but I think you read it wrong. It would be very relevant to know why someone wanted to talk about this and how it got to the front. There has to be some context, and I suspect GP is intrigued to know what it is.

Usually I see the dupe and not the original. Comments pointing out dupes are irrelevant noise.

The real issue with Reddit is the capricious insanity of the mods. I got banned from enough subs over total nonsense that I just quit the whole thing. It makes sense though, the mods are unpaid volunteers doing work that people generally do

That would be redundant. If I make a factually inaccurate comment, I can expect at least three replies correcting me. We like to joke that they all start with "actually..." Maybe I've also been downvoted, but it's clear

It seems weird to call Mormonism a Christian denomination because of the whole extra book where Jesus visits North America. That's a massive deviation. It's the same as saying Catholicism or Rastafarianism are denominations of Jud

Yes, usually privacy is valued over transparency in mediation. It depends on the parties involved and their concerns, naturally.

Or it leads to a massive outbreak of "actually that's not really meditation, this is" discussions.
