I think your comment kinda points at the reason why I don’t like people who despise cars. Like we all have a thing we love to use. Some people like me it’s cars. For others it’s video games. For some it’s books. We all have a thing. I’d imagine even movie buffs have a favorite TV or midea format. The world is pretty boring when everyone is a carbon copy of the other.
As a Vermonter that’s been told that we have a lot of British influences I’m surprised beens are not common in our diet. Like the only times I’ve ever had the chance to eat beens is when their mashed up for the 2 times I’ve had tacos. Tbh I didn’t even know the Brits even had beens. Granted I’m presuming they are common over there due to the context of this meme.
Human milk is only really strange to us because we normalized drinking cow milk. I see no reason why it’d be odd for zotopia animals to drink cow milk as well. If anything I’d imagine they’d consider the idea of adults drinking milk childish. Irl most adult animals are lactose intolerant so I’d imagine most likely the ice cream in the movie is just sherbet. Ice cream in this universe is probably a dessert for children.
Ok so basically there’s this guy who always has one cup of punch whenever he goes out to party’s. He never ever gets a refill ever. Anyways everyone calls him one punch man because hes like really strong and kills everyone with one punch.
Classified documents feels pretty illegal to know. Especially when there are cia agents tracking you down. That really hammers in the this is illegal feel.
For me growing up in a very mono race state really does helped with making we completely oblivious to race stereotypes. Ether that or just everyone being too preoccupied with antique cars and maple syrup to care about race.
I live in amarica and noticed that every tape measures I find are imperial only. Hell even on Amazon I can’t find a metric tape measure and you’d think they must exist considering us amaricans are the only people using imperial.
Sometimes I feel pretty lucky to have grown up in Vermont. Because this is the norm, hell we even have a state holiday where we all go out and pick up trash that Flatlanders leave. And then I remember oh wait we are also the state that’s been destroying our forests and farm land for the sake of building suburban homes for litter bugs that don’t respect the culture that was already here.
Fr poop is natural and it does a pretty good job at promoting plaint growth. Hell it’s not like your going to come across poop from racoons or deer. Hell I’m Shure if you were to go off trail it’s likely you might come across a half eaten deer. Poop is just as natural as death.
Looking at Japan and Vermont it really seems like solution to the litter problem is making a culture of politeness. We really need some physiatrists to study what makes a society polite. Like what makes groups of people become polite.
Pretty much the title. I’ve been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality....
Yaknow I just thought of one technicality that would make time stopping a very miserable super power. What if you are also paused. Or what is the physics of paused time. Like do you need time to make stuff move. If that’s also the case wouldn’t your clothes stop you from moving in paused time. That’s not even mentioning air is also mass. That needs to move to let you move about. Edit: also if mass doesn’t require time to move. What about energy. Would everything feel like it has a shit ton more momentum than normal. How tiring would walking be.
I know octopi have been escaping their aquarium enclosures and covering their tracks that humans would see. Just to take one at a time pray from their tank. If I recall correctly even killer wailes have been taking down human boats. In conclusion there are for Shure aquatic predators that use genuine strategy. Granted with my killer waile example is a similar case of is it strategy or instinct.
I find it pretty funny seeing people talk about how Japan is not as advanced as people think. Meanwhile my home state the majority of people don’t have Internet. I’ve been getting pretty convinced that most places use fax machines due to how few places have Internet. Anyplace that has any amount of beurocracy uses paper files. There are a considerable amount of places were cell signals simply don’t work. The only way reason I know of public transport busses is because of movies. VHS player are common place for house holds. Many work vehicles were made in the 60s and we still use buckets to collect sap when sugaring. Card readers are rare so some gas stations require you to pay with cash. All around the only advanced tech things Vermont has to offer are our winter cars and the f13s that occasionally blow peoples ear drums out.
No it was a project back in the 1950 I think and it was this big mobile lab but because there was this belief that rounded tires preformed better in the snow the builders sanded the tread off the off-road tires they got also the engines while they had plenty of torque the fastest the artic explorer could go was 2 mph and when it finally arrived at the artic it got stuck immediately and moved faster in reverse the scientists got soo fed up with constantly digging the 70ton paper weight free that they just gave up and started using it was a small stationary base until the ice under it broke then 20 years later vw sent a bone stock Beatle that managed be the first car to drive across the artic with 0 issues
Your probably the only serious communist I’ve came across. So I’m curious how do you expect innovation to happen in a communist world. I know we live in a corrupted capitalist society. But while we have had many counties try and fail to make a thriving socialist society. We have had capitalism thrive and make everyones lives better. We’ve had many people call amarica today late stage capitalism, but that implies that it’s inevitable that society will be corrupted by blind brand loyalty and companies will buy out compition. So why do you think we should change to communism, instead of eradicating blind brand loyalty and cracking down on wealth gained through stifling others.
I’d define thriving by peoples control over their lives. Like working class people being able to persue hobbies and afford luxury items. Yea it’s quite possible to make people live long lives but from what I’ve seen in my home state of Vermont living a long fulfilling life is much harder than having a long miserable life. From what I understand I didn’t know that people lived longer in the ussr but I’m aware the average jo didn’t have a color tv or a car much less a car with climate control, radios, automatic transmissions, convertible tops or a sense of fashion. I’m even told a toilet that flushed was quite the lugury just as it is in China. I can buy that people who didn’t get disapeared could live long lives but it couldn’t have been pleasant lives. Seriously American consumer products were so good that many of us are still using tractors from the 50s houses from that same time are just now starting to rot. Even today Japan is making cars that are far more reliable and efficient than any other countries. Tiwan is leading the way in high quality computer chips. Chips that are used in both weapons and lugury products. Henry Ford forsed all car companies to make cars for average folks. Then other companies were able to force Ford to make cars that aren’t the model t.
Honestly I think capitalism works so long as you can make sure greedy people can only satisfy their greed through productivity rather than insider trading and buying companies that are competitive or implementing micro transactions into fully priced games infact that’s the reason why I’ve been against stock markets just like how are these people improving life for others
Testing is also a part of engineering like dusten didn’t just build a super sonic baseball gun and just left go yea I built that no he actually shot it sirusly we don’t just engineer random shit for the sake of engineering something we engineer to make a thing to accomplish a task so of course we’re going to want to see these machines used that’s what engineering is all about like imagine if we had pro soccer players get ready for the game and we just cut straight to the end of the game
Idk if I’m being elitist or flexing the fact that I’m poor but as a stick shift driver in the state of Vermont I often did this in winter to get the heat going granted I always had the clutch down as well
Idk who that man is beyond I’ve never seen him expressing any emotion other than social anxiety he’s like the socially awkward version of the Terminator
