That’s a hard steamed egg, though…

Yeah, wouldn’t the increased surface area increase the release of gas making everything ripen faster?

He has a trans son, who he supports

No, he objectively does not. Tolerates on a local level, sure, but not supports.

“I love you, son! I’m so proud of you for being your true self,” he yelled from outside the burning building, holding the door shut, “but you’re on the insurance policy, so the payout is better if you die!”

You’re conflating the severity of the consequences to the likelihood of it happening.

The likelihood of getting in a crash is not higher if your feet are on the dash. The likelihood of your injuries being worse, way worse, is. That’s the point of plenty of plenty of precautions.

Do you think seatbelts aren’t necessary because they don’t make you less likely to crash?

I still don’t understand.

It sounds like you’re saying we should not be concerned with putting our feet up on the dash because we could fall off a ladder.

Don’t put your feet up on the dashboard because an unlikely crash could shatter your hips.

Don’t step on the top of a step ladder because a less unlikely fall could break your spine.

Why are we comparing them like it’s incompatible to practice basic safety for both? Absolutely, there are many other more common dangers in the world you should guard yourself against. But not putting yourself in a position to severely worsen your injuries in the event of a car collision is one of them!

What are you talking about?

“I’ve never got into a crash, so go ahead and put your feet up on the dash if you like because people get injured from ladder falls and sports.”

First of all, and this is an issue I’m trying to impress on my 7 year old too, no one intends to have an accident, that’s why it’s called and accident. Just because you’ve never been in a car collision doesn’t mean it won’t happen.

Then, in the event that a collision does happen, you really don’t want your feet up because it will be worse. What may have been some heavy bruising to your face and chest turned into one shattered femur and one ripped right out of your hip.

That’s the lesson, and it’s not “over cautious”. It’s absolutely an appropriate level of caution.

That’s defeatism.

Your house is falling into disrepair yet you’ve been sweeping the floors and cleaning the dishes for decades.

Yes, it needs major work, and no, it can’t be fixed with brooms and sponges.

Looks like Baron Trump to me

It’s this. Stay the fuck down until your row is clearing.

Hot take! We’ve got a hot take over here!

These unconvicted foreigners, who some people refer to as “InNocEnt ciViLiANs”

CAPITAL LETTERS ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN THE LESSER LOWER CASE. PHIL, LINGUIST

Uh, apartments are small and house parents with their children… aka a nuclear family. So, checkmate, library.

/s (jesus christ it’s depressing that’s necessary)

I think it could be dangerous given the limited scientific literacy of the general public.

I can imagine a slew of issues where people treat it like fat/calories and assume lower is “better”, or where other people think it’s like a vitamin and high is “better”.

I think 95% of people wouldn’t look, but that last 5% would be a mix of people that use it to their benefit as you suggest and people that misuse it as I cynically assume.

I would have said “I’m also less than 28 weeks pregnant. Do I need a note too?”

People don’t live in shared dwelling residences because they thought they’d really enjoy sharing walls…

Exactly this. A detailed log and evidence is important.

Also, talk to your other neighbours and see if they have, or would report it.

As it is, resident B has 2 noise complaints in 8 months from resident A. Without evidence of all the rest of it, this fits all sorts of scenarios. People make malicious complaints all the time and the authorities (rightfully) shouldn’t just take your word for it that there’s a long history.

Always have receipts

Oh fuck, that makes so much more sense!

I was like “What? What do they do with their noise tongue? What are they and what are they doing with them? I need answers!”

Mollusks have been invading our country, illegally , and so too must be deported at great expense to El Salvador.
