Being allowed to touch the belly is a huge honor!

I think it depends on what you mean by “tech,” I would love to include indigenous discoveries in our repertoire of “tech.” The thing is, unless we learn to be mindful of the quality of life for humans and the planet, tech advances are going to be awful regardless of what they do.

Well, we don’t have to roll over and let them do horrible shit to us.

I wonder how many of those people piously avoid Target, etc.

It’s appropriate that she’s a woman, she fits into the grandmother hypothesis really well. The wisdom goes through the grandmas, and the wisest species are the ones with long lived females like humans, orcas, and elephants.

So she was the keeper of some really important information! That’s cool. Thank you for sharing!

Came here to say this! Would not be shocked to see that one make a comeback, & if you think mfers know the difference between which Asian group they want to exclude, you’re definitely giving them too much credit.

Of course there’s nothing libraries can’t do, they have all the instructions!!

Every time I see these dishes I remember a pic I saw once of a uranium glass flute, and wonder if the player got lip cancer or something. Anyway, I think it was in some museum which is definitely for the best!

And there’s no inherent reason for men to be worse at those tasks, which mostly involve communication & social awareness. The patriarchal playbook is not big on any of that, so men are working with an outdated system & need a new & improved one.

It will be a great day when men (broadly speaking) wake up to the fact that patriarchy harms them as much as it does everyone else. There are so many emotionally stunted, miserable men out there making it everyone’s problem when all they need to do is walk away from the bullshit.

The amount of talent in your family is spectacular! Dropout is amazing. Then again I dropped out of 1st grade, so I encourage dropping out (later graduated summa cum laude from college). We all have our own paths, that’s what makes being human so great.

4) is true of more than just AI and yet it is how our society is currently structured

This is exactly how I feel too. It’s such a helpless feeling.

Wow, what a journey! I’m so glad people were able and willing to help your family out with milk your daughter could use. That’s truly wonderful.

That’s fascinating, I didn’t even know there were non-dairy eating donors. Is it an alpha-gal problem?

That’s awful! Most of my veggie consumption comes from my freezer, I don’t know what I would do if I couldn’t access it & also couldn’t pick up a bagged salad frequently (which is my solution when I don’t have freezer access).

While that may be true for you, most trucks I see on the streets do not need to be the size they are. I live in a neighborhood full of working trucks, most of which are older & much smaller than those on sale today. We should return to those sizes & also have more electric/hybrid vehicles.

Probably so lawyers of people hit by them couldn’t make arguments in court about their client getting hit by a (fill in massive number here) vehicle?

Yeah, I guess I meant do it more (the arresting part)?

I suspected making an electric truck was not the solution.

Honestly surprised, I figured they would use prisoners first & just arrest a bunch of people to use as unpaid labor.

I get it now. I changed my name when my parents divorced too. So I guess I have something in common with JD 🤮

It would be unfair to make me compete against cis women at this point in my life. If I trained & worked out I would be much stronger. Now imagine that in reverse. Trans women are not men, they do not have any advantages in strength over cis women.

You are correct that making trans men compete against cis women is unfair. Trans women are not men & do not have the strength advantages men do. Taking hormones changes your body massively no matter which puberty you had. The muscles I have now that I’m on testosterone are crazy!
