See, the logic I heard re: resistance is the opposite. An infection is only an infection when the bacterial levels are high enough to cause symptoms. Anything below that is definitionally at a level where your body can at worst manage those bacteria without triggering symptoms. You can still be contagious, though.

So, when you don’t finish your antibacterial regimen but instead stop when you feel better, you are maximizing the culture size of bacteria with some resistance, creating maximal chance for some resistant bacteria to spread. Finishing your regimen kills the most amount of bacteria; yes, the surviving ones at this point are the most resistant, but are at a small enough number that propagation and spread are far less probable.

Nah McDonald’s is worse. Lube washes off; fry smell, not so much.

Idk don’t math debate in public?

Oh, yes. I know my accident was like maybe a third of a percentage point of all accidents. Even then, my car didn’t fully ignite, just smoke, I just didn’t know what was and wasn’t going on. But you’re right, the article is weird about the EMT bit.

Knives are definitely easy. I still stand by my seatbelt cutter though; I was once in an accident, I was unconscious for a bit, concussed, airbags, smoke coming in, etc. No one was close, I was too fucked up to figure out the seatbelt, but I remembered my cutter on the door panel. Could a knife have done it? Yes. Was I in a state where I could safely handle a knife without hurting myself? Probably not. I wouldn’t recommend a cutter as an emt tool, but as a driver I’ll always keep mine.

I think you could relatively easily go trinary, where a finger is either down, bent, or up. That would get you to 59048

Nobody should have that much wealth, I don’t care what they do.

I have always respected Gabe’s “fuck gamers I do what I think is cool” mindset though. Fuck gamers.

This clock is bullshit. No skins? No emotes? Bro where’s the Minecraft parlour in the background? This is ass.

Malcolm X by his lived experience was much closer to the issue and much more educated in the horrors we were inflicting on the region. Like I don’t even want to call it anti-arab racism as I feel that that tacitly supports the lumping of all the diverse peoples of the region into one racial category. This isn’t to critique Malcolm or defend MLK, just it’s worth keeping in mind that being right or wrong can be an outcome of our lived experiences and biases regardless of education.

I think that MLK was a lot closer to a different era of politics around Israel (and colonialism in general) than what we have today, and there needs to be some analysis of that. Israel was and is a settler colonial project, but the dynamics of that were completely different at the time. I doubt he saw Israel as the western MIC blacksite it became, and more saw it akin to something like Liberia, which he also supported. Which, yes, Liberia is also a colonial project. Like he was still a deeply religious man; I guarantee you he saw Jews as a racial diaspora as opposed to just a religious minority. Dude would have said with his full chest that Palestine was their “ancestral home.” Does that make him a hypocrite? Idk maybe. It does show himself as a bigot, ignorant of race and racism outside of the US yet willing to comment on it. But, idk. I think this deserves discussion at least, that the Israel of yesterday, while wrong on almost every level, was still completely different than the Israel of today, and that the ways supporters were wrong then don’t necessarily map onto the ways supporters are wrong now.

Wdym? I’m on graphene rn and I don’t have google services or google play installed.

Idek that they try to spin it anymore. Yeah, corporate media spun the pagers, but iirc Zionists were just like “we did this cool thing, like James Bond!”

I endorse hating the right. I endorse creative writing exercises. I do not endorse this.

What do you mean “Making Linux work?”

I’ve always said it: Republicans win because they’re the only party that will fully admit a problem exists. Their solutions are fucking evil, nonsensical, and exacerbate all our problems to the nth degree, but at least they’ll say there’s a problem. Nobody can afford rent; you had Trump out there blaming our Haitian brothers and sisters, but Harris wouldn’t even admit there was a rent issue, or if she did it was easily remedied by rewarding the same landlords that bend us over at the start of the month. You only have to look at Republicans for a minute to understand how expertly Democrats can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, all for a fuckin dime.

It really grinds my gears when other leftists write stuff like “he faced stone-cold stares and laughter,” implying that there was a mix and they were being dismissive of him. He was extremely, amazingly direct, to the point that all anyone could do was stare. Meanwhile one person is both listening to him and hearing in her ear that they need to cut to commercial; I would hazard that even someone who agrees with him would fumble. If her response was to laugh, so be it; I would want to see a larger bundle of her work to understand her positions. As for the writer, shame on them. You can use direct language, even inciting language, without relying on obfuscation. The beauty of being truly on the left is that we can prove our points by just telling the truth; write like it.

It’s Hitler from Lil’ Nicky, an Adam Sandler movie from the late 90’s. He’s forced to wear a French maid outfit and have a pineapple shoved up his ass all the time.

Bruh why they making flirty eyes

The day I punch my own ticket is the day some tech bro makes a billion dollars selling public transportation as “service-based architecture.”

Diablo 2 Fuck yes.
