I guess mine didn’t get the message to sign up for the sharing.
Of course they would adapt to changing times. Who goes around opening chests anymore?
Now I want to see an evolutionary tree of mimic adaptation.
Have a new orange. Can attest it’s true. But only part of the time, he’s a sweet boy sometimes too. Dear lord there’s no brains involved, I don’t know where the one cell idea comes from. Zero.


I don’t even have sympathy for people who put themselves in situations in the wild and get attacked, but for an animal that’s been abused for someone’s profit and enjoyment, I’m totally on the animal’s side. Their life is ruined - they probably can’t go back into the wild, and an attack like this will result in their death. So suffer or die? Hell of a way to live.


I’ve learned that’s either a sign or a requirement of middle management. I like to go through and correct the errors on posted messages.
A browser history may be embarrassing but at least you can explain it.
My dad did the exact opposite of this when he had a Corvette. Some guys pulled up to the stop light, got him to roll his window down, and said, “Hey man, want to race?”
His reply. “Why?”
The “I have a flag” of being manly.
MAGA, when Nazis were fringe groups, and got punched when showing up in public.


Calvin Ball. Since he’s so prone to making up rules as he goes.
I rarely downvote unless it’s an obvious troll. I’ve always seen downvotes as meaning not related to the topic, not a negative opinion. If it’s worth engaging I’ll introduce my own take and why I think they’re wrong. For discussion purposes, as that’s why I’ve always been on such places starting back when they were called discussion boards. I will upvote for something I agree with, but for the purpose of it hopefully seeing more light. I’ll comment on it as well, trying to avoid just a “me too”, although sometimes I think my longer comment may as well be that sometimes. I try to bring something new if I can.
My biggest problem is that I engage so much in the topic and comments I often forget to upvote the main post. I hope anything I do within has the same effect. In theory more comments helps, right?


That has its own slope of discrimination from data due to being able to pay or not. If we determine a certain thing is okay ethically to screen for, anyone should be able to get it. Bad enough to have one gray area, we don’t need a gradient of gray everywhere.


My first question was, why is this a target? This is terrorism and outside war rules (insane that we have rules for war instead of just not having it). Laws are only as good as their enforcement though.
Are you talking about murder? Because if anything legal morality is far better than most religious when it comes to killing people. And that’s even with capital punishment still practiced.


But someone assessed they were still a valid target, right? We aren’t quite at the fully autonomous attack craft yet, are we? That would be a convenient excuse, blaming the AI/drone because the humans in charge totally wouldn’t have done that. Totally. Especially knowing it would be found out by the world.
Enough buyouts and the parent can have creative acronyms.
I knew someone in high school who had a hard cover copy of the book with the design, and inside at one particular point the text changes color as it describes everything. No spoilers, if you’ve read it you know. I don’t recall if the movie had that exact scene. Also don’t know if every copy of the book does that, but being what it was, it was surreal, as it was meant to be.
I didn’t fuck the chassis up. That’s all I’m saying.
