    @jon-nyc said in SCOTUS to Team Trump: Drop Dead: By the way, as I googled up the data about blue and red shift, I was reminded that this is how it goes arguing with any conspiracy theorist. They make a claim, you show them its false, then they just pretend it didn't happen and make some other false claim. Like with some 9/11 truther, at some point you find yourself researching the tensile strength of steel at 400C and ask yourself "WTF am I doing?" If you start

    We bought ours at Target in 1992. It is still in great shape and looks wonderful. Every single ornament has a memory attached to it.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Trump negotiating with Galactic Federation of Aliens: @taiwan_girl said in Trump negotiating with Galactic Federation of Aliens: But I would be very amazed if there was not life as advanced (or more advanced) than humans out there somewhere. Imagine traveling a gazillion light years, and the first human being you meet is Donald Trump. We're doomed. Not necessarily. You'd have to know your aliens better.

    It would be interesting to see a graph of population density vs. cases/deaths. Obviously, there would be some extremes. Singapore has one of the highest population density, but low case/death. Taiwan is the same - high population density and low cases/deaths. There are so many other factors that are tough to include and graph.

    Interesting. I have always been interested in ants. In fact, I have this big book on ants. In fact, I have the below book [image: ?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.oGrBT4dOxHxqcLSaz28CFwHaIp%26pid%3DApi&f=1] I looked in the index of the book above, and there are a alot of references to myrmeco..., mainly dealing with the action between ants and plants. [image: 1607481452324-img_4522-copy-resized.jpg] Never even heard of that word before. LOL

    I've seen The Who twice in concert, both times before 1972 - yeah, with Keith Moon. I was so impressed with how, with just a lead guitar and a bass, they could "fill out" the sound. ZZ Top is the same.

    @Copper said in Reversing Aging?: With a growing population food would be a problem life insurance would change social security would go broke the death penalty would be punishment for even the smallest transgression He addresses all (well, not the death penalty part) of those issues in his book. One of the points is that SS would be shifted toward people who are really retired, because, if you remain in good health, you'd work longer - presumably.

    What percent of Americans even know who Krebs is? I’ll bet they are more likely to say Kreb Cycle which tells you how little this matters. It will blow away like a fart in the wind.

    Omg. That’s awful. Sometimes you have no choice on who moves your piano (meaning there are no qualified people to hire). Our last move had our piano almost flipped into the rock garden off the front steps on the way into the house. We’ve moved it so many times I’m at the point where I fully expected it to come off the moving van in a million pieces.

    The TEA party. People said it died. It didn't. Some of the policies are definitely found in Trumpism. Trumpism ain't going away, either. If Trump doesn't run in 2024, look out for this guy: [image: Gov__DeSantis_signs_order_to_fight_algae_1_67121406_ver1.0-7.jpg?w=960&h=540&crop=1&resize=1280,720]
