If you watered a massive crop of corn every day from your state's reservoirs and sold the annual harvest to, say, Indonesia for a hundred years, what are the chances that you'd have lots of drought in 2125? What would Indonesia's rainfall look like then?

Cooking is just denaturing proteins to make food easier to digest. Fermentation is just asking some fungus to predigest food for you. Processed food is just asking some machine to do the work of mastication for you and take out the inconsistency.

The American Dream is predicated on an endless expanse of land to accommodate a single-family house on a quarter acre of land for every American who wants one, which is presumably everyone. How much of this can USA's continental landmass support?

When "jobs" is your main metric for measuring the success of your economy, the most successful economic strategy is to slice every full-time bill-paying "job" into a half-dozen part-time soul-sucking "jobs".

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

Hide and seek was more fun for me than the average kid. Like, a LOT. Finding a hiding spot where nobody would ever, ever find me. Watching, silent, as my pursuers search in vain. I still get a twinge of pride when I accidentally sneak up on someone. I'm no thief but my default mode is sneak.

Horror is often cathartic. The basic recipe: Scare you with a monster, then defeat or banish the monster. You get the fear but also relief from that fear by the end.
Black Mirror does not always provide that relief. Not knowing whether this ep is cathartic makes each more interesting.
