Iirc, top level posts are supposed to pertain to the study itself. That isn’t really something negative in a science community, imo. Look at practically every top level comment here to see the reason.

Personally, yes.

I don’t think it goes on sale, at least not for any significant amount. To be fair, it’s easily worth the full price, which is not something I often say.

Looks terrible, grating voice, not very smart… Hmm, who does that remind me of?

That’s the problem with the fediverse in general. It’s a lovely concept, but it’s hard to sell people on something that has 10% (if we’re being generous) of the content they’re used to.

Nah. Trump did it, so it’s good. It’s not like they actually think.

A better educated and less impoverished population is something, too.

I’ll pay for college for a large number of people and pay a lawyer to defend my action as not “giving it away.”

Hah, that makes sense.

I think spellings and punctuation are still valid. Mostly. Ignore variations between English and Americanese.

If sexuality is a spectrum, he’s definitely not firmly on the hetero end.

Your heart is in the right place, but that’s not exactly a reasonable comparison. Few other surgeries, even elective ones, permanently remove your ability to do something as major as procreation.

Imagine marching alongside Nazi flags and thinking you’re on the right side of history. Confederate is bad enough, but I can accept that they’re delusional enough to not see what’s wrong with it. Nazi? There’s no argument to be made.

Congratulations, it’s an asshole!

Beryl is a mineral. There are definitely women with the name, and there are likely some men, too (though A Boy Named Beryl doesn’t have the same ring to it).

Personally, I refrigerate anything that says Refrigerate after opening. Even if it’s preceded by For best results. Ketchup falls into that category.

He needs to act to safeguard our democracy, because others will not have the same hangups in doing the opposite. Acting with the power they have granted him in order to prevent future issues is not corruption.

There will always be exhibitionists and people who just like to fuck, but sex work is, by definition, transactional. You’re not going to see a society with free communal removed who aren’t being compensated in any way.
