@LilithLovett Just keep in mind that every one of these "asteroid is worth x amount" story comes from the asteroid being a gigantic hunk of undifferentiated rock. Sure, it can be enriched in siderophilic elements relative to the crust, but they have to be MASSIVE and a big challenge processing
@disco___cat Our gov hasn't liked funding our culture, the yanks have a very well oiled cultural export machine, and our elites have wanted to be yanks since WW2
If only our language reform movement had happened, then I could not interact with the rest of the world's culture.
@nyaraVT The thing is that the average western elite was broadly sympathetic to Nazism and only thought they were going a bit far with the "invade everyone" and "exterminate all the jews" which is why you'll predominantly hear those stories around the Nazis.
@LitterboxComics I have a vivid enough imagination that daydreaming was a problem, texture, colour, smell, all that. However, I've been immersed in the written word so much I even think first in words rather than images. In essence, I think like I'm reading a book on my life.
@scrungeonmaster I used to eat two whole big yellow onions a day and I could clear a room any time I felt like it, had to keep the windows open. Still love me a whole onion in my meals.
@HikiPTG This genre of post makes a lot more sense when you understand it's older women who wrote the literature and the younger ones are recycling it without critical analysis.
@Q2Quokka The people least affected by immigration restriction policy are all inner-city working adults, and they mostly don't vote ON. They'd have to pick, purity or money. Historically they pick money. If they pick purity, rural depopulation would accelerate, nothing but agribusiness.
@Q2Quokka No she isn't.
Like every right populist, she'll talk about remigration, immigration policy. Then, figure out that the world is very different today from early-mid 20th c., and her rural base will commit economic suicide if their access to migrant labour goes.
@KinaMagica I followed recently because you were winding up terrible people & that was funny, also the birth saga got me good, real good. Absolutely fried me.
@MyNameIsWepeeI We tend to consider respecting someone's identity as "normal", but this is one of many things animals do not comprehend. So humans easily project this onto the animal, but you cannot misgender an animal because it doesn't possess gender as we do.
@MyNameIsWepeeI Do you mean why people care about the sex of their pets (usually anthropomorphism, breeding, or vet business), or why people get the sex of animals wrong (usually due to internal gonads and subtle sexual dimorphism). Them colliding humorously is an old comic standby.
@asubparusername On a personal note my family was one of the few "kinds" which the DLP might have appealed to; English but Catholic, here since the mid 1800s, working class but not communist, and it's still been a Labor family because they voted along union lines.
