    It was rushed, with approval, because people were dying. I wonder if there’s death projections on what-ifs where we waited to get full trials, or we just didn’t do anything. I seem to remember people who believed vaccines did actually help were in favor of quick action.

    They are all about trying to pin Biden on mistakes made, maybe even some that are legit. Do they say anything about the President who set things in motion to allow the pandemic to occur to the world? I doubt it.

    Would vaporization slow the material though? Perhaps the end result wasn’t a manhole escaping the solar system but a huge collection of microscopic metal fragments scattershot that direction. Which really makes the Mass Effect quote even more relevant to a huge amount of aliens somewhere.





  • I think it’s far better to find someone you can relate to via their personality first. Everyone has their flaws, so if you’re weeding people out first from appearance and then trying to find the person inside to match, that’s killing your odds a lot. That being said, you can hit it off seeing someone first and then learning more about them, but I think that’s more true in real life where you can pick up other signals that online visuals just aren’t going to do, and those subtle signs will filter your image of them, whereas if you had a picture of them online you might skip over.

    However I have no experience in the dating game and am biased as I found my wife of 35 years online back in 1985. Rather she found me in randomly looking for someone to chat with and things went from there.

    The important thing is to know what it actually says. Outside of that, Chinese and other type writings are artistic in themselves already, so even if it only said “water”, if that looked nice why not?

    This picture shows that artistic character. If her back had the meaning tattooed in English it might get some odd stares. Unless it was in Papyrus font.






  • It’s well known in the fact that once you’ve run across it and someone explains it, you’ll usually see it later on without trouble after a few times. Although some forms of it are quite subtle, like this one. The title is the hint, otherwise I doubt many would have caught on. That being said, if you never happened across it, you’d wonder what the hell everyone is talking about. About like any other meme really.
