That’s why most people just use YouTube. 🫠

The former, I guess, if this clip rubs you the right way.

Most of the bestselling self help books are slop, just not necessarily AI generated.

Truisms regurgitated by corporatist structures and advice groups to get people to struggle though and accept capitalism.

The “bi” is for both homosexual and heterosexual relations. Not gender itself.

Post-modernism denies grand narratives and puts forward that people will deceive themselves for their own benefit.
And indeed that values and ideals are socially contracted, so what is “Good” will vary across space-time.

Not that there is no Truth.

Yes, but had had mental health issues from the start.

I mean, Pictures for Sad Children was the title, and wasn’t the ghost a suicide?

About 20.

More if you include oral, manual, and the like.

The WHO does good work, but it’s as much a bureaucractic force as a medical one, and I think due to the desire for geopolitical clout the US cared more about the latter than the former.
Not that way that the US doesn’t also do some medical outreach with military missions as the PRC also does.
But it does make there a minor difference in kind. After all, the selfish jerk who goes around fulfilling people’s dreams just for his own selfish satisfaction of feeling like a good person still is.

More reasonable than the embargo never existing is it finishing in the 90s following the end of the Cold War. Sadly US face couldn’t allow that to happen.

We can’t be sure.

The PRC isn’t blockaded in the same way and has also invested in medicine and sends out lots of medical missions; that said, it had a bigger economy and does that less than Cuba.

And even so, it doesn’t make the blockade right - even if this is a potential silver lining.

Cuba’s medical work is amazing.

The US blockade is has been and remains a crime against humanity.

Really? I’ll bite. Name 3, and please note that:

1. Fascism and authoritarian are different
2. I’ll need your definition of socialism, and “because the PRC said so” doesn’t change the material conditions of the nation. Just as the DPRK being called that doesn’t make it democratic.

Sulphuric Acid acts on trousers and carpets. Wooden desks seem remarkably immune.

Found out after getting an actual chemical and chemistry set from a deceased relative. Parents didn’t check what was in it, just “chemistry is educational, good he’s learning”.

I was either dropping magnesium or potassium into a beaker of sulphuric acid as both of them were in the set too. And I was either a butterfingered lummox, or the act of dropping the metal into unbalanced the beaker knocked it over and the sulphuric acid cascaded onto my jeans eating through them and making my leg itchy, and bubbling the carpet into a stinky white then grey foam. I can still picture-ish that sight; and I’m normally not very visually minded, a testament to the deep impression the experience left on me.

Was much more sensible after that: just burning magnesium and chucking potassium into tub of water in the garden like you do in Chemistry class from time to time.

I usually download Eurovision, as the politics isn’t new… Just more apparent.

Maybe find a Eurovision community and ask about alternate viewing methods? I’m sure there are other ways to watch live, which if you’ve got a gathering is the way to do it.

I appreciate the choice made over X-ray fish, Xantops, and Xerus.

Going hard, and I wonder what other letters have.

You’re not wrong, but I’ve also seen people calling Pluto-Charon binary dwarf planets.

But yes, the IAU tends to only pin down definitions when one is becoming unworkable - in this case the ever larger numbers of trans-Neptune objects that were potential planets.

The arbitrary cutoff size being to ensure continuity of the scientific consensus in popular awareness when I was a child isn’t a stupid rule.

Not even when a larger kuiper belt object is found.

Not even, when since mass is the primary means of estimating size until we fly a probe out there, we estimate a smaller but much with much more mass object to be larger and we debate a 10th planet yet again.

I’m only down with the “Pluto is a planet” crowd, if they rep Ceres and at least one of the others (Eris, Hamuhea, Makemake, or one of the others I forget) too.

So there’s no version of the solar system where there’s only 9 planets. It’s 11+ lads.

Seems to be true, which since The Canary is a UK publication and would have to face British libel laws if not isn’t a surprise… But due to magnitude I had to check… Here are some I found before I decided to go do something else.
