Read, yes. Study, eh. Process, no; that takes time.

I don’t think she meant “micro”, no.

Is someone just discovering anarchism?

If it’s true, and you’re in the US, you’ll be fine. If it’s not true, and they can prove it, they can sue for libel.

Ice is generally not full of air bubbles, so no, the same mass of water does not get heavier when turned to ice. The water just takes up more space in crystaline form, taking up more volume at a lower density.

It is, and the thought that someone would be annoyed by it shocks me

whaaaaa?

I confess, I mostly expected this post to contain things that also annoy me about my fellow Americans, but here I am now, rocked to my core

I’d rather doubt it. I tend to think of God as the original uncaused action.

But the most important thing is to have a healthy scepticism towards anyone who claims to have definitive knowledge of God.

Bone density loss?

It won’t be fun. It will be work. I was saying that from the beginning. It’s a task without end, but still worthwhile.

Some heirarchies (my personal opinion now) are both natural and desirable: parent and child, teacher and student.

Many are harmful, and should be removed, no matter how “natural”.

I wouldn’t say “hardwired to create heirarchies” so much as there’s a tendency, in any case.

It’s so frustrating. Neoliberalism is explicitly a postliberal ideology.

Of those two? Christian Democrats, I guess. But there are ideologies far to the right of anarchocapitalists (eg. neomonarchists) and far to the left of libertarian socialists (eg. communists), and anyway political ideologies don’t map well to a single- or even dual-axis graph. You need axes for economic model, rights vs. authority, and stability vs. innovation at a minimum.

There’s a natural tendency towards heirarchies, but “natural” doesn’t mean “necessary” and it definitely doesn’t mean “desirable”. To create and maintain a better world takes work, and part of that is dismantling “natural”, but harmful, heirarchies (eg. the physically strong dominating the physically weak).

I wash them after three uses and use them until they fall apart.

I teach English and Math and do manual labor on the side.

Not safe, but a lot less unsafe than acetaminophen.

do I have to

Not at all! But tacos de lengua are basically the perfect hangover food.

In my life, I usually bounce them out of the bar and tell them not to come back.

For you, give him some ibuprofen (NOT acetaminophen) and lots of water and put him to bed. Serve him a breakfast of braise beef tongue and hope for the best.

are you the chicken or the egg?
