YES. YES! A square is a rombus is a parallelogram! You see it too! There are no parallels in this diagram, only lies and trickery!

Ties are worn around the base of the neck, and the neck is the flexible thin part that connects the head. I see position A as being well below the flex point, which would be like wearing the tie low on the shoulders. That’s why I would prefer it at the bottom end of the joint, position C. One could reasonably argue that anything above where the body narrows down towards the neck is part of the neck, in which case A would also make sense.
Semantics on where a neck starts aside, position B is clearly at the top of the neck and is therefore just nonsense not even worth considering.
Also position C lets the tie hang neatly down the front of the body as it should, rather than dragging the ground or dangling loosely in midair.
A square? A square?! Wake up sheeple! That things not even a rombus! Don’t you see the lies? Look at the lines! Look! Not all rhombuses are squares, but all squares are rhombuses! All squares are rhombuses and look at this thing they try to call a square. Where are the parallel lines? There’s got to be parallel lines, don’t you see, or then it’s not a rombus and all squares are rhombuses. Don’t forget that, don’t let them take that fact from you and perpetuate their geometric lies. Does no one even remember what a rombus is? This is, this is basic geometry here that you should have learned in middle school or elementary school, but then you just forget it, and let people trick you with these misleading definitions and fancy diagrams but you have to remember that a Square. Is. A. Rombus.
It’s definitely the sort of campaign promises he would make, though I don’t know he’s said any of these in particular.
I’m imagining that his wife will never hear the end of it. “See honey, and you said I didn’t need to carry two guns around all the time. Well look who was right about that.”
That’s good to know. Generally about what I expected based on the concerns about her I’ve read. The Greens really could use some leadership that is actually competent, because they’re not wrong about their overarching point, even if she seems to be wrong about most everything else.
Oh yes, I was cheekily agreeing with that. It’s always good to spread the information that the end result of a person who isn’t specifically trained in rescue swimming attempting to swim out and rescue a drowning person is almost always just the two drowning together, even if the would-be rescuer is an otherwise strong swimmer.
I realize that other comments have already explained the law better than I could. I still wanted to say that fortunately, jumping in to drown alongside them doesn’t legally count as “helping,” so there is no expectations for anyone to do so.
I don’t know any of her specific policy ideas, so I can’t comment on those, but I was under the impression that her main idea was the whole “we should all stop trashing the planet we all live on” thing, which is, generally speaking, a very good idea. I admit that doesn’t mean her plans to do something about it are any good.
I had guessed it was Sri Lanka since it is also shown just off the coast of India. Then I figured it was more likely Indonesia given it’s surrounded by so many other islands and not that close to India. But yeah, now that I know that the name meant Japan I’m wondering if it’s depiction on the map is a conflagration of accounts of Indonesia and Japan.
How dare you, I’m sure that they are good patriotic American English professors! They’re just from a different state than you.
No, don’t you all see? He’s actually so genius that we mere mortals can’t comprehend his brilliance, as attested to by his multiple friends who are totally real English professors who exist and spend time with him, and are definitely not fictitious people he just made up on the spot to try to strengthen an obviously bullshit argument. Well, no, you wouldn’t have heard them, because they, um, teach at a different school, but the important part is that they are intelligent enough to see the clever underlying structure of his wide ranging and definitely intellectually brilliant speeches, which the rest of us apparently aren’t.
I think it’s not so much people who are undecided about who they will vote for, and more people who are undecided whether they will bother to vote for their preferred candidate or just stay home.
I’m no expert, but for me personally, my shin splints went away immediately when I changed my running stride from heel strike to toe strike. I learned this when I tried running in minimalist shoes and the complete lack of cushion meant I would be bruising my heels. So, I stopped slamming my heels into the ground and instead land with the ball of my foot, absorbing the impact with the flex of the foot. I think of it as treating the cause rather than the symptom. It’s an adjustment, and I was a bit sore in some muscles I previously didn’t even know my foot had in there, so I had to work up to it a bit. Since I got used it though, I actually really enjoy the feeling of my feet and legs while running. I’ve also heard that the toe strike stride is less energy efficient, so apparently serious athletes never use it. If you’re running just for the exercise or for fun though, I recommend giving it a try.
My personal opinion on fishing as a pastime is funny. The idea of sitting by the lake for a few hours with friends and beers sounds like good fun, but as soon as you add that I’ll also be waiting for a fish to strike, it suddenly sounds dreadfully boring to me. I just hate waiting on things.
Yeah, “racial discrimination lawsuit” sounds like a bunch of woke Democrat talk to me.
Seriously, I do hope he wins some money off of those assholes, but I hope even more that this was a wakeup call for him about the sort of people he was affiliating with, and the sort of views he has been supporting.
I love how this looks like it was taken out of context, but he really was making a joke about Trump’s obsession with crowd size while making that gesture.
Classic Italian mistake.
Yeah, the American West has a huge variety of very distinct biomes. For the purpose of telling a story though, one rocky desert or forested mountain vale or whatever is as good as another, leaving us, the audience, largely unaware and misled. We mostly only notice when they do that to areas we’re familiar with.
Reminds me of the movie The Patriot, starring Mel Gibson. There’s a scene where he is at his home in what is clearly the upcountry of South Carolina not too far from the Appalachians and he takes a walk down his garden path to visit his wife’s grave, which is located in the South Carolina lowcountry, by the coast, somehow skipping past over a hundred miles of pine forest that would have been between those areas. If you’re not familiar with those areas, they both just look like areas in the American Southeast, but if you are familiar, it’s very jarring.
Yes, hallucination is the now standard term for this, but it’s a complete misnomer. A hallucination is when something that does not actually exist is perceived as if it were real. LLMs do not perceive, and therefor can’t hallucinate. I know, the word is stuck now and fighting against it is like trying to bail out the tide, but it really annoys me and I refuse to use it. The phenomenon would better be described as a confabulation.
