Anyone who says attitude doesn’t require effort has never had to deal with people when they are exhausted.

She was a great one who shall be missed. Guess it’s time for a memorial viewing of Murder by Death tonight.

SBF could probably talk shop about weird sex shit with Diddy. SBF was in that polycule based on sexual hierarchy. One of his partners said:

“Everyone should have a ranking of their partners, people should know where they fall on the ranking, and there should be vicious power struggles for the ranks.”

These two may reach each other things.

Truly

Just wait, it’s the local glass replacement guy and he’s desperate for business…

Why doesn’t Texas connect to the federal US power grid? It certainly isn’t freedom for its customers.

a Houston homeowner, didn’t have to touch her thermostat to pitch in. Her utility company remotely shut off her air conditioner nine times that day as part of a power-saving strategy

9 times a day? I get annoyed at setting the oven microwave clocks each time but 9 times would be too much. And each day! That’s not freedom that Texas wants - they want to keep a deliberately bad grid away from federal inspection that would require the company to spend money on upgrading and updating their shit.

The Sarmat missile is Russia’s largest ICBM, with a height of 115 feet (35 meters). It is capable of delivering nuclear warheads to targets more than 11,000 miles (18,000 kilometers) away, making it the longest-range missile in the world.

On paper, it’s impressive. In person, it’s embarrassing.

“The invisible hand of the market slaps Trump like a bitch. More at 11…”

Byron Donald’s is full of shit, man.

Someone heard Trump and thought, “I bet that guy can carry a note.” That’s terrorism.

Ah, sounds like that traffic stop started with, “Do you know who I am?”

First bears, now whales. I’m beginning to believe this fucker did eat that dog.

No hate quite like Christian love.

“Spaceship future unclear after it’s discovered ship can only put people into space, cannot get them out of orbit.”

That groom is definitely testing the “or worse” part of the vows ASAP.

They are

I think he’s also including racists and other misanthropes.

Forced Stockholm syndrome as therapy.

I don’t care what a plant thinks of me; it won’t change the dynamic that I’m motivated and it’s prey.

My point is that plants “think” but do so differently than meat bags. Plant cognition is more like a series of low level chemical reactions that look like thinking, but so does brain chemical squirts if we look close enough. So plants may actually be thinking using mechanisms which don’t rely on complex brain architecture because it has another method of processing that thought. Probably across the whole structure but the process is really inefficient so it takes a long time to finish compute.

Like if a super computer made the judgement of a calculator - they are both crunching numbers but there is an order of magnitude difference in how fast the answer is found. Maybe a plant has low bus speeds and crappy compute limited to simple threaded operations.

The plants are acquiring information and making an independent change to their status with this information. Books do nothing with knowledge other than communicate it to others. Machines are unable to make independent changes to itself unless programmed to do so.
