In the most charitable interpretation, the rent price only barely covers the wear and tear without wfh, but we all know that’s not true.

It could be worse

Possibly. The really water-injected stuff is often frozen so that probably doesn’t help for sure.

Eh, in my experience this chicken has a weird texture so not really

Wait, another comment said it’s because it’s high in fibre. Seems like it’s a meme that nobody actually knows why, or even experiences it?

On a similar vein, this is why I like the Dymaxion map so much; it shows more clearly how the landmasses are connected and better illustrates how early people migrated and settled where they did.

First thought: “why are they holding their baby like that?”

After scrolling down: “oh”

Redistriboobtion is now my political affiliation.

That’s a crane fly. They have lots of nicknames and folk identities so it’s super common to call them something else. I’ve heard them called “mosquito hawks” (they don’t hunt mosquitoes) but male mosquitoes is a new one to me. You could add it to the Wikipedia page lol

So I’d consider myself a very amateur entomologist so am very open to being wrong here, but that’s not a thing to my knowledge; if anything, the males tend to be smaller. You might be seeing two different species, or are misidentifying another insect for a male mosquito.

I drank the maximum for my weight and exertion that would just barely not cause water intoxication. Now, let me get a glass

Implicitly stating they’re doing something equally as bad twice a day

Crane flies are significantly larger than mosquitoes and don’t swarm. Swarms near a lake are very typical of midges who look superficially like mosquitoes.

No, the feathery antennae is a way to tell males and females apart, not species. Male mosquitoes have feathery antennae, and so do males of many other fly and even other insect species.

Jokes on you; this near the solstice the sky doesn’t get dark enough for me to see anything anyways

So all passengers in any vehicle can’t use their phones? That’ll be wildly unpopular.

Sure, but a tool shouldn’t care how you use it.

Nah, the general public doesn’t have the time or patience to properly research this stuff or consult the experts. They’ll just vote on vibes and we’ll just be trading one kind of bad for another.

Keep representatives, just don’t elect them. Sortition is the best of both worlds; you still get a sample of the population, but with people who take the responsibility seriously and actually have the time to do the research/due diligence.

Sorry, I was talking about them
