  • This is actualy just statistical error. The average liter of air contains 0 microscopic ants. Ants Gorge, where the air has over 10,000,000,000 microscopic ants per liter, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

  • There was a great interview with a woman who had written a book on the Manosphere and she said that it's "funnel-shaped," which is to say that the first stages are nowhere near as extreme as the ones they lead to. It starts off by talking to lonely young men and telling them that their feelings are valid and that they have value, both of which are things that young men very much do need to hear! But the pipeline then moves them from that to "Your feelings of isolation aren't your fault" to "Your negative feelings are women's fault," and then you're off the primrose path to "Women aren't people" and "Women deserve any horrible treatment you can think of."

    But the earliest stages are ones of finding young men that aren't having their emotional or structural needs met, and filling that vacuum in.

  • Crucifixion was an exceptionally awful way to die. It could take days. The Roman soldiers were required to stay until the victim was dead, so sometimes they would stab them or build fires at the base of the cross to hurry the process along. The mere act of being crucified, even if you assumed the subject didn't stay dead, represents an incredible act of dedication.

  • Starship Troopers isn't a smart movie pretending to be a dumb movie, it's a moderately intelligent movie with pretensions of being a smart movie pretending to be a dumb movie.

    Robocop, on the other hand, is a masterpiece.

  • I was going to suggest this:

    It takes minimal effort, cheap materials, and is quite strong. I've had my woodpile on one I put together for a few years. Once I had put the angled 2x4s into the cinder blocks, I also filled the remaining space inside the block with pea gravel to keep them from wiggling around.

    Here's the full DIY instructions.

    Edit: If needed, I'm pretty sure they'll cut the 2x4s to your requested length, at least at Lowe's.

    I found out that mixing sour cherry syrup with extra spicy ginger ale is delicious.

    No bourbon or anything, just spicy ginger ale and sour cherry.

    Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey?

    A quick search suggests that the average American uses about 1.3 pounds of honey per year. If I'm 40 years old, and guess that I might live to be 80, that's only 52 pounds of honey, which I could easily buy in bulk. Honey doesn't expire, and even assuming the price doesn't skyrocket from bee die-offs, inflation alone will make the price go up over time.

    Does it make sense to buy all the rest of the honey I'll ever need for the rest of my life, right now?

    Theme

    The future, a place where all of us will live! New technologies will continue to improve life for all, as we master the atom, the electroradio wave, and the magnetic storage tape! And wherever we go on Earth, OR BEYOND, we will bring the marvels of capitalism, and the wondrous products it provides!

    Capture the golden age of advertising and the atomic age. The technology of the fifties and sixties, extrapolated into the future, and used to sell you something you may or may not need.

    Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!

    What is something the previous owner of your house did that you're grateful for?

    Mine installed a pegboard in the pantry. It's incredibly useful for hanging up pots and pans.

    There were probably people with terminal illnesses holding on so they could catch the finale of their most-beloved TV show, Game of Thrones, and who died horribly disappointed.
