The distance in time between now and when Microsoft Office replaced drop down menus with the ribbon bar at the top is the same as the distance between then and the fall of the Berlin Wall

Part of the reason why Lake Superior is so massive and deep (its deepest point is 733 feet below sea level and is the lowest point in the continental US) is because it occupies an ancient rift valley. What is now North American almost split in half a billion years ago.

I think what is going to happen is that lab-grown meat will gradually catch up with real animals and when that happens we will all quietly admit that the vegans were right about factory farming
i'm convinced if we ever tried to touch the rail of meat politics in America (something that's going to eventually need to happen in order to reduce CO2 emissions), it would lead to a huge right-wing shock
remembering the time a random catholic priest got mad at me about a hypothetical about the government restricting meat production on the other site
meat politics is going to be insane for the next Dem administration which takes climate change seriously, imo

update: felt sluggish basically all day. no peaks in energy, but also not much of a trough either. I like the consistency but it mostly sucks.

Mental fog after meals: every day I spend about 2 hours after lunch and 1 after dinner completely unable to think and barely read.

counterpoint: don't get yourself in a situation where you are called to testify about a nothingburger. it kind of sucks to be grilled by lawyers "SO BY WRITING YOU HAD A RANDOM IDEA, YOU MEANT ___"
no sir, I meant I had a random idea that I barely spent a moment thinking about

being a whistleblower: difficult; risky; may ruin your life; should be reserved for only exceptional circumstances
innocently producing a document which must be produced in court should someone notice the thing: if legal thinks this document is a problem for the company, the thing is illegal

In Australia, if we can't pass a budget, the government must resign or call a double dissolution (dissolving both house & senate) for a complete reelection

Here are some qualitative analyses. Growing up in the 1980s my middle class family flew maybe once a year. Going out to eat even for fast food was an unusual extravagance. Pizza hut advertised itself as an upscale place to go out. We did not have any of the wide varieties of ethnic food. Furniture1/
