It was discussed chapter by chapter. And we watched the movie version after for good measure.

That was 5th grade for me. I still wonder what that teacher was thinking.

Lyndon LaRouche. I'd occasionally run across a few of his minions out leafletting and they oozed that culty wacko vibe.

This (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0927650524001130?via%3Dihub#sec0027) appears to be the actual paper the article is talking about.

Looks like "The Complete Book of Magic and Witchcraft" by Kathryn Paulsen.

You can get a similar vibe out of golden curry by peeling and pureeing a couple apples. I add them after the onions get soft and fry some moisture out of them before the water and tubers go in.

I'm a huge fan of this style of curry, and went down a rabbit hole a few years ago learning lots of stuff about Japanese style curry.

It's because there was a book called "Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor's Guide to Good Health" that kicked off a health fad called the "Vermont health system" in Japan. It included drinking apple cider vinegar and honey. The curry then appropriated the name for its health connotations.

I think the overview effect is due much more to who went to space than to space itself.

The people who could go on space missions are intelligent, curious, thoughtful people because that's what it takes to achieve a spot on the ride. It makes sense that such a person might have a profound realization seeing Earth from outside.

So my answer is that even if everyone went to space, many would be unmoved or moved differently.

Regulatory capture.

Why put chips and e-waste in there when a crank and escapement type doodad works just fine at a tenth the price?

Vertical Integration.

Right? FAANG has been a thing for over a decade, and the N is Netflix.

Project 2025+4n.

I love my cigar, too, but I take it out of my mouth once in a while.

Hey I've seen this movie before... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

And then squeegee down your forearms and aprons and get back to work.

You just pull the wrist hole open and dump out the excess hand water every hour or so.

It's like the ending of Inglourious Basterds, but self-inflicted.

He's the silver medalist in olympic mixed doubles air pistol shooting.

He's a memeable badass because he doesn't wear a faceful of steampunk-looking accessories on his face while shooting like all the other competitors do.

Trump seems to just riff on his weak understanding of the last thing he heard. Maybe they were afraid of a weird rant about bulbasaur extinguishing clean coal.

So 0.0001 of global CO2 emissions (2022 global total) Who might be bigger and what should we do about them?

Heyo!

I couldn't tell you, TBH. I have only read the series of books.

I'm sure there are at least one or two who do, so I think you mean you don't like a pedant and feel like most people agree with you.

Well it's a series, but Three body problem. It should have been right up my alley, but I got so tired of every decision by every character being stupid that I couldn't be bothered to read the last fifty pages of the last book.

Even if I charitably assumed the point of the book was to show that people are weak and stupid, the series was such a ham-handed strawman as to undercut its own commentary. And even worse, it had just enough interesting ideas to lead me to believe it was going somewhere worthwhile, but it never did.

It's been years and I'm still pissed off that I wasted a week on it.

Big Parma is responsible for the Fontina epidemic that is ravaging our rural communities.

It feels weird to use this magazine as a reference to answer your question, but you might check out https://www.cracked.com/blog/6-reasons-trumps-rise-that-no-one-talks-about

It may be from a comedy site, but it refrains from much of the lazy strawmanning you'll usually get as an answer.

I guess the Talking Heads were on to something. https://youtu.be/PH5JvU19_YQ?si=gqbkXoBWCngdkCpV

Nice job, Hamstray! Homegrown?

As I understand the caption, this is actually the most commonly googled dream type. I'd expect this is not actually the most common dream type per country, because the most common experiences aren't worth investigating.

maybe it's more like "type of dream that most commonly confuses and disturbs people in a given culture".

Some nascar racer named Brandon won a big race. During the post race interview a chant of "Fuck Joe Biden" went up in the crowd.

The interviewer said they were chanting "Let's go Brandon". So dipshits all over started using that phrase as an anti-Biden slogan. This is also why there's a "Dark Brandon" meme for occasions where Biden trolls the Republicans.

A sign that reflects the eternal truth... You don't buy beer. You rent it.

Glad you enjoyed it! Personally, I never expected such a thing from a sports reporting site.
