Overall billionaires wasting their money to pay for idiots that then waste it in consumption would be a tax positive, I believe. We should encourage that behavior instead of them buying assets and then extracting rents like the parasites they are. I don’t care if they get to write off the money they lose from their income.

The key point is the courts only generally care about antitrust issues if they’re adversely affecting the consumer, and alphabet is starting to get into that territory.

Every protein is denatured and turned into amino acids by proteases in your stomach and from your pancreas.

The incoming CEO kills the preceding CEO’s cubs so the company will get back into estrus and they can have their own cubs.

Here’s the thing. You said “vegan luncheon meat is spam.”

Is it in the same USDA classification? Yes. No one’s arguing that.

As someone who is a scientist who studies processed food, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls luncheon meat spam. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing.

If you’re saying “luncheon meat category” you’re referring to the economic grouping of the USDA, which includes things from Armour Treet to Great Value to Swift Prem.

So your reasoning for calling a vegan luncheon meat spam is because random people “call the one in the tin spam?” Let’s get King Oscar and Chicken of the Sea in there, then, too.

Also, calling something meat or spam? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how nutrition classification works. They’re both. Spam is spam and a member of the luncheon meat category. But that’s not what you said. You said luncheon meat is spam, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all tinned meat spam, which means you’d call prem, treet, and other luncheon meat spam, too. Which you said you don’t.

It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?

Before dialysis, poor kidney perfusion meant immediate AKI and thus death, so I get it.

As with all things you must behave like a shithead in moderation.

You don’t have to waste the other hydrocarbons when you crack something. You just use em for something else or burn them for power. Though the flare towers in refineries prove me wrong to a degree.

Maternal mortality wasn’t quite a Holocaust until they started having women give birth in hospitals without germ theory so nobody was washing their fucking hands and the doctors were reaching up there to check on the placenta and killing loads of women with puerperal sepsis. 18 percent maternal mortality rate at the time, when 300 years in the past (based on church records of births and deaths) it was closer to 3 percent.

It’s a more general English phrase. Could come up with a good insult for transphobes with this though. “Pud CHUDs?”

AI couldn’t even bullshit as good as this and that’s all it’s for.

A meat Popsicle.

Just need the right name for it. Soundblasters are still being produced aren’t they? There’s always a market.

I’ve got a really wild idea: what if you change the shape of the anchor so that it’s actually getting resistance against the water itself instead of having to hit the sea floor. You’ll have to pull it out if the water once you’re done moving it and then drop it in again. Maybe put it on the end of a big stick. I’m thinking about calling this type of anchor an “oar.”

Try piercing but hole.

Not only that, you’re using the friction between the anchor and the seafloor, so even the recoil of a propulsive ballista will allow you to perform work.

Hey warp and weft is why I mentioned threading a needle across the sea.

Thank you Boatswain Underpants. Keep up the good work.

I bet you could get a bunch of money for a CGI prototype of your new green cargo ship.
