Ironically, spacetime contains no actual space nor any time. It's actually mostly whole grain wheat and malted barley flour. Edit: Wait, that's Grape-Nuts. Not spacetime. Anyway, my point still holds.

The issue isn't that college is pointless, it's that tuition is too high and wages too low. You should support politicians with a plan to counter this trend. Education is important. Raising the overall level of education in this c

Stop promoting videos that are low-content, mindless listicles, or flat-out misleading. Or promote stupid behavior. I'm relatively savvy, but every time I go poking around YouTube it takes a fucking effort to avoid this garbage. Those

I don't think this is about unnecessarily ceding ground -- it's about arguing in bad faith as a tactic for delaying and confusing the issue. I see it all the time and it's interesting that someone has given it a clever name.

I'm no space science maker person. So take this all with a grain of salt. But. Halley's Comet takes 75 years to make an orbit. It goes out to about 35AU. Let's call that 1 year per AU. That rough, rough number would lead one

That's a minuscule number and "influenced" doesn't necessarily mean "aimed them at the Earth." There's a lot of space out there which it takes things a lot of time to move through. It takes the Earth a yea

Have you spent any time in Manhattan? It’s more than just Midtown. And the whole idea is smart growth that keeps cities accessible to everyone. So, no, it shouldn’t be left to become a “Venice for the super rich” or whatever.

For the photos in the link, eyeballs. The photo manipulation is poorly done and really obvious. (I mean, there's the clouds issue. And then the fact that the moon is in front of trees in the right-hand image, bottom right.)
