Glee?

Suspend the site’s permit until the organization shows that it takes its obligations seriously.

The violence is shocking and unacceptable. It’s totally possible islamophobia caused the situation to escalate to violence so dramatically. I hope it gets considered at trial.

It’s times like these you lose your appetite. It’s times like these you and the baker fight.

Lift up your hearts! All will come right. Out of the depths of sorrow and of sacrifice shall be born again the glory of mankind.

We cannot yet see how deliverance will come, or when it will come, but nothing is more certain that every trace ofHitlers’s bootstep every stain of his corrupt and corroding finger will be scrubbed and purged and of need be, BLASTED, from the surface of the Earth.

Praying wasn’t working, but praying AND fasting might!

Maybe beaver teeth go from orange to brown when they die due to further iron oxidation

Two other options would be:

A. End of the Molotov/Ribbentrop pact (any war with Russia is technically transcontinental)

B. British sinking of the Vichy fleet (happened in a lot of places right?)

Or paradigm adjustments to the two you suggested:

A. France/Britain declaring war in response to German invasion of Poland (committing their global empires to the conflict)

B. Japanese campaign in Malaysia and Indonesia adding that theatre to Japan's war and putting them at war with.... Ummm other empires.... I think British and dutch?

Facebook sucks and has for quite some time.

In Canada we passed a regulation that social media sites have to pay our media companies to link to their articles. Google is paying up, but Facebook said no, and has banned news. It has made Facebook here much less terrible.

The ‘her’ is the author, the ‘they’ is the activist.

The comment was in relation to the size of the settlement, and the author’s satisfaction with the judgement.

CSE did not say how many Canadians were impacted

Was it all of us, or 5 of us?

I really like that the 3d preview has a scale!

I think the establishment is actually quite sensitive to unemployment figures because people that are unemployed have time to demonstrate.

Just like how the law equally prevents the rich and the poor from sleeping under bridges.

I think the irreducible complexity debate is over. Creationist scientists will continue to publish “but maybe” arguments because defending creationism is part of their identity, but its just a “but maybe this gap in human knowledge proves XYZ”. They are starting with a conclusion and looking for arguments that it isn’t impossible.

In the video where he’s shooting antique guns (or something) with his son, his son always calls him “sir”. Is that a regional thing? It seemed super weird to me.

I’m a different person weighing in here:

When you said:

The T3SS is one of the most complex bacterial molecular machines, incorporating one to over a hundred copies of more than 15 different proteins into a multi-MDa transmembrane complex (Table 1). The system, especially the flagellum, has, therefore often been quoted as an example for “irreducible complexity,” based on the argument that the evolution of such a complex system with no beneficial intermediates would be exceedingly unlikely. However, it is now clear that, far from having evolved as independent entities, many secretion systems share components between each other and with other cellular machineries (Egelman, 2010; Pallen and Gophna, 2007).

I ofc am just a layman reading this, I agree it seems better understood that how I interpreted what he was saying, but it also doesn’t seem nearly as well understood as you’re saying.

IMO it’s a problem with the article. The article says that T3SS is cited as an example as something that’s “irreducibly complex”. I suppose that it’s true that it is cited as that. But the second part of the paragraph explains why it isn’t true that it’s “irreducibly complex”. The paragraph isn’t explicit enough because the paragraph has probably evolved to be something that’s true and equally dissatisfying to both sides.

The printer I had in the 90s wouldn’t print black and white without color ink either.

Yeah, the enslaving states actually wanted to count them as full people, for that purpose. 3/5 was a compromise with the free states. It really shows the power of motivated reasoning.
