I was listening to this episode while grocery shopping today and the guy in front of me at checkout was buying a six pack of mini Canada Dry cans and nothing else. This was at the old folks Kroger in Louisville, KY.

Couldn’t tell if they had been funded so I took care of it. Sucks how bad these platforms are! My donation model has been to find campaigns that are close to to the goal and finish them off. If you have a small/medium amount of money to spare, I highly recommend it!

I also have a hard time with the trolley problem, but I can’t imagine being a person who refuses to engage with it at all.

I also wish they would say how much the risk increased. Did it go from 1 in a million to 3 in a million? That’s triple, but not significant. Did it go from 1 in 3 to 1.5 in three? That’s “just” a 50% increase but super significant!

By which you mean designing, purchasing all the supplies, cutting the pattern, then crashing and putting it all in a box for the next X months. At least that’s how my adhd brain works on multi-step projects.

This man’s out here acting like he went to OU Southern pre-internet and got degree in basket weaving, rather than a large well-funded and respected research university in 2006 and got a good enough education to get into YALE LAW with no connections. What a fraud.
