Would the “celebrity” have a security detail?

• Shit on Teslas

I could do without a few of those

Yeah, how dare you criticize genocide.

Villains or heroes isn’t the issue. It’s the argument that we need a group that doesn’t play by the rules that apply to the rest of society that I find problematic.

Shouldn’t we strive for a world in which the rules really do apply to all? Can’t we hope to conceive of a set of laws standards by which we should all be judged? Isn’t the world of Star Trek meant in some way to be aspirational, rather than just a reflection of what we have now?

Yeah. Reading the article, Section 31 seems great if you just want to just shit on everything else in the franchise. Nope, not for me.

Don’t worry, when this new company eventually merges with Toyota, who already own parts of Subaru and Mazda, it will be perfectly positioned for acquisition by Stellantis.

Hmmm, I wonder if they’d pay up to 70,000 a year to any of us to claim that we’re posting from there?

I eat tuna often, and I’ve never noticed anyone that can’t draw separate conclusions based entirely for reasons without cause or makes little sense. Evidence of heavy metal caused features resemble natural pathways just fine. It’s like spending worry about higher lead or cadmium. Who does it?

Seems pretty good for 1.1 x .9, and for .9 x .8

I guess values must be pretty close

After some thought, I’ve decided that we should refer to this apparent lapse by journalists as “Oceangate-gate-gate”

After decades of journalists attaching the suffix “gate” to anything even remotely scandalous, I was disappointed that I never heard anyone embrace the full stupidity of this practice by referring to this story as “Oceangate-gate”

I know. Nothing stresses me out more than weighing mice

It is sad that on any topic concerning South America, I am suspicious of anything that the US says.

Bravo!

The expert quoted has had quite a life:

After earning a BA in English literature from UCLA, Austad left academia for a number of years during which among other things, he drove a taxi cab in New York City, worked as a newspaper reporter, and trained lions for television and movies.

He sounds pretty cool.

I admit I looked him up only because his view challenged what I’ve been seeing in reporting on studies done in this area. I’ve seen what seems like a trend in studying and comparing changes in lifespan and healthspan in male and female subjects (in both human and mouse). I suspect I am suffering from some recency bias, but it really does seem to me like studies in this area are better at teasing out sex differences than in non-longevity lines of research.

Anyway, thought I’d mention the expert’s colorful past

Videos shared by researchers show how the elephants respond to call recordings addressed to them. In one, an elephant named Margaret appears to almost immediately perk up to a rumble recording addressed to her.

It’s amazing to me that elephants use, among I would assume others, the name Margaret.
