I ate your onion and was about to quibble about the New Hampshire accent.

I agree with you 100%, just wanted to say that you probably mean tortuous… though torturous is definitely metaphorically possible 😂
Onion’s probably my second favorite vegetable today, but I didn’t like them much as a kid. Granted, I’m not much for spicy food, but that’s because of heartburn, not because I don’t like them.
I think the overturning of chevron deference actually might make it so that politicians are just as qualified to make medical decisions for their constituents as doctors. It’s not a good era for the Supreme Court
I don’t know anything about tech, so please bear with your mom’s work friend (me) being ignorant about technology for a second.
I thought the whole issue with generative ai as it stands was that it’s equally confident in truth and nonsense, with no way to distinguish the two. Is there actually a way to get it to “remember” true things and not just make up things that seem like they could be true?
Sauerkraut and kimchi have B12

Oof, I’m not good at this.

I could see children deciding that this is how they get gun control laws.
I do feel awful for the kids who would have gotten to go to these schools, but won’t because of institutionalized racism. Just not for the people who pushed for this law
Also, doesn’t everyone like fried chicken? I don’t even eat chicken and I make fake fried chicken
Are you rich enough to only use glass containers and do all of your food shopping locally at farmers’ markets? Because if not… stop drinking beverages out of plastic bottles. I’m in the same boat.
I do worry that this might have a “cried wolf” effect for victims of actual antisemitism.
Do chatgpt and the like have a plan for profitability?
I think it’s worse than it feels. Like, I still like Jimmy Carr, but how many schools have cut meal programs because of a lack of funding? It’s just that money is fungible and through taxes it gets split up so much that you can’t really follow it, so I don’t think we realize the harm that’s done when people don’t pay their taxes.
You don’t have to be suicidal to jump on a grenade
With severe burns, that won’t be true for likely several years, maybe never.
There’s also no evidence that horseshoe crabs have individual names and understand the concept of evolution.
I sometimes have medium length nails (3-5 mm past the fingertip), though I tend to just grow my own out, and I do it entirely for myself. I have a bunch of different kinds of nail polish and stencils for making cool patterns and it satisfies my inner elementary school librarian urge to dress up for even very minor holidays.
People have come up to me and told me that my nails are too long for them to find attractive, which is a bizarre non sequitur imo. I don’t know why the assumption is that any self-decoration is intended as a sexual signal: my ideal nail-based interaction is that a little kid asks about them and I get to tell them about Arbor Day or national soup day or something.
Sometimes they make life more difficult, and then I either find workarounds (opening pull tabs with a spoon, for example) or cut them, depending on how much time I have and how much I like my current nails.
I get that they’re not for everyone, but I like them, so I wear them. It’s okay if others don’t like them, they don’t have to wear them.
The CEO of Merck should have to explain that to the victims in person. They should really get in there, offer a supportive hug if it feels right.
