Everybody also said this about the Biden/Trump debate, and that’s ultimately what made Biden bow out. Personally, I’m a bit apprehensive about how Harris would do against Trump: she didn’t fare very well in the democratic primaries, and she hasn’t had a lot of practice since.

I’m not on the fence, but some who are might want to see how Harris holds up to a strong authority figure (Trump isn’t the only asshole on the global political stage, remember)

pussies are tough. he’s a ballsack: quite sensitive, shrivels up in cold weather, and prone to premature ejaculation

I actually found that I really like the “hot” scrolling so much better. On Reddit, everything I came across had ~hundreds of comments and everything was multiple hours old. I didn’t feel like I could contribute at all. But here… it feels a lot smaller, and most of the “hot” posts are not rubbish, so I feel like I can actually contribute!

and this!!

I used to love all the Marvel movies. and then I started watching one film and couldn’t tell if I’d seen it already and didn’t want to watch it if I hadn’t… and then realised they’re basically just identical stories player by different characters.

no reason to hit up the opening weekend if you’re just going to watch a rerun.

Not using metric is so much more fun:

• water freezes at 32, boils at 212
• 16 cups in 1 gallon (both standard units of measurement)
• 1 (US) cup of water is 8 (US) oz
• 1 (US) cup of water is 14.4375in^3

Makes your maths so much more exciting!!

This is a great scale. Let’s solve all the arguments about temperature and instead just create a “pleasantness scale”. Could probably even market this and sell a “personalised pleasantness scale” and you pass it out to your friends when you meet them.

I mean, the temperature 0 was assigned because it was the lowest temperature that winter in Fahrenheit’s town, and the “powers of two” was only chosen because it was simple to mark degree lines on his instrument. Feels quite arbitrary to me…
