I'm not good at math, but people keep passing this chart around in reddit-logo

But I keep seeing people in the comments debating whether this is actually "impossible" or not, using stats terms I'm not familiar with. Also idk the source of this graph so maybe it's bs.

Do any of you burn incense? What kind do you like the best?

Her videos are cool as shit for the most part and have helped me ( a cis straight dude)

Understand trans and queer culture better fwiw.

My fucking idiot stepdad convinced me to get a degree in goo science around 2001-ish, saying goo was only going to get more popular after Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, Flubber, etc. etc. THAT was fucking wrong and now I need contingencies in case I get laid off.

Was thinking about trying to invent either a goo-based cereal or maybe goo pest traps, but I don't think I have the funds or wherewithal for that.

Would massively appreciate it. Thanks.

So, I've had moments in the past where I might have spent 30 seconds thinking about this subject but ultimately I don't give a fuck about competitive sports so my analysis usually ends up being, all competitive sports should be banned because competitive sports are dumb. Which is admittedly a neanderthal take.

But yeah, now the global athletic showdown is going down and seemingly everyone in my immediate vicinity keeps clutching their pearls and I guess I'm sick of not being able to advocate for trans comrades appropriately and articulate a proper response.

So what's a better response besides, "who cares?" Am I missing something? Like, if all things were equitable, what would or should competitions look like?

Help me out. I honestly have no idea.

At home:

  • Balls

  • Fuck your dad (probably got this from r/chapotraphouse)

At school:

  • Wah! (an actual demonstration of sadness feels healthy)

  • God's angry at Mr. Butt Bidet today

I'm not a very angry person, I don't really have it in me to be genuinely pissed most of the time. Sometimes I'll get irritated, and I can usually kinda DBT my way through it, but honestly I'm really pissed at my ex. The more I think about everything horrible she did and continues doing, the more I kinda spiral into being pissed and it's not helping me at all but I don't really know how to decompress all of it. I'm rightfully pissed, she did some truly nuclear shit I'd need content warnings for, and having that anger is healthy at some level. But like I said, I need to get my mind off this shit so I don't become a bitter divorced dad lol

Found info of a New York based ngo from the site, but anyone know what this is about?

Apparently it was news that he decided to go to Congress and make a little speech there

Wtf... isn't he the breadwinner of the U.S foreign military funds? What does he want?

I've gotten two completely different narratives on the issue

  1. its a genocide that the Ethiopian and Eritrean government is doing against peoples.
  • CNN and whatnot
  1. Ethiopia and Eritrea are fighting an ethnofascist group that ruled the government from the fall of the Communist Derg government till 2018 and they're trying to take back power after a mass movement cut them out and tried to establish an independent foreign policy. -Ethiopia

I just don't know whats going on, obviously i don't fuckin trust the west and separatists backed by the USA, but I want more information.
