Wait, there are people who don’t? J/k but I like to pretend to kick the air as if I’m kicking a door open/down. I get looks, and I’m okay with that.

Thank you for sharing this video, turning on my light-saber and allowing me the high-ground.

Tried looking up some news on this - anyone have a reliable link?

Hey, the 90s are calling and they want their paint job back!!

This. NPR is even left leaning (I’m progressive), but Reuters and AP News, more often than not, seems the least bias - least.

There’s some interesting ways of understanding “dark energy.” This is just one.

This, 100%. Even when a case seems won, don’t give your opponent anything to muddy the water. I hope she owns this mistake and tightens her process.

Vote. Just, vote.

No more impossible than any other precise quantum measurement. But that doesn’t have to be the goal post; indirectly making measurements, even on atoms worth of mass helps. Every time we change the setup, the mass, the temperature, the measurements, we can learn something new. Cast enough shadows from different angles and you’ll be able to model what’s casting the shadow. If you study condensed matter physics you’ll quickly learn there’s a lot to be learned and gained from indirect quantum measurements.

Sooo, less electoral points for Republicans? Tempting…

Depends on where. Where most the land sits on sand? Pretty bad. Mostly solid stone? Utter destruction.

For far too long people have been under the illusion that politicians try and debate in good faith and to some extent certain politicians do - Biden will spin facts into a better light or down play some issues; that’s politics, right? But Trump is everything bad in politics and perhaps humanity, all wrapped into one. To give that a microphone is bad enough, but to think you can “debate” such a thing, should be someone’s first and last mistake. It’s pointless because there’s no new perspective for Trump to bring to America’s current situation; Biden knows this. In many ways, you either vote against Trump because you know what he is, or you vote for Trump because you believe what he wants you to know; he only brings “alternate facts,” and again, Biden knows this.

No society should have any businesses or individuals that are ultra rich. It’s one thing to surround yourself with materialistic goods and services, but to use that wealth as power and control over a huge majority is evil. I suspect when the ultra rich have proper self-repairing droves of service robots, worker drones and obedient AI, they won’t have use for most of us - I am not being hyperbole in writing this…

I want to preface that there are good people on both sides who want the bad people on both sides to stop being…bad. That said, Russia (Putin and his government) is super bad. If Putin can tie up resources anywhere else but against Russia, they’re going to do it and often, it just costs them money and/or backroom political deals. The only reason I think her investigation is a bad idea, is because she’s not going to find enough evidence - but not because it isn’t happening.

As far as I can tell, it’s a purple state. The right republican would have to come along to pull moderates/libertarians in the state and Trump will only lose the state again - he talked a lot of shit about John McCain; that’s not going to go well. Don’t get me wrong, every state has it’s Trump cultists, but there’s just not enough.

And so the simple saying, “you are what you eat,” must be updated to, “you are what you eat and how you digest.”

Dunt

Into a barrel of plutonium…

The issue I have is that so many users are uneducated and read some disinformation, take it as truth and then vote accordingly. I don’t want to see certain things but I go out of my way to use multiple sources that are as unbiased as possible. But so many consume extremely biased propaganda and live according to that constructed view that they think is reality. I know there’s no easy answer, but the problem is clear and so long as the rich can easily take advantage of the useful idiots, it’s a struggle for progress in society…

I love science, like experimentally observed science or at least practical theoretical science, but Youtube tries to shove every crackpot nonsense they can at me. I watch one political thing and now they try and shove every conservative propaganda they can at me. It feels like when I was young, the internet was too much for conservitives to understand and control…not anymore. What’s the one true power conservatives have? Money. Now they’re ether buying up social companies or their CEOs left right and center - or at least bringing tech leadership into the ultra-rich fold. Where they are winning without exception, is in isolating the majority of their voters. Now, there’s no longer a shared reality and the divide seems to wide to close. Conservatives wanted brainwashed cult followers and did everything they could to make it happen. Now Idiocy seems far more real on the right with each passing year.
