Those 3 are constantly "warring" with one another

Hiding behind America's legs as you swipe at all your neighbors is not fighting a war.

Using 12 AM or 12 PM is useless. Midnight is both and noon is neither.

The saying "hindsight is 20/20" is stupid. 20/20 is average. As someone with better than 20/20, my hindsight would be worse than normal.

They prevent you from having to join a union to work at a company. And you don't have to pay dues either.

You can effectively benefit from the unions bargaining without supporting the union - which if enough people do that kills the union (the goal of the law).

U bend of the toilet we don't use. Can fish it out with a magnet if I need to reclaim it later

Being tangential to the overall topic doesn't mean you're addressing the actual main point of this thread

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

None of this line of questioning is related to this thread in a any way.

Yes.

We don't need even more antivax idiots due to a complete lack of biology being taught in schools.

Instead of broken windows needing replacement, we have broken CEOs needing protection. Causing destruction as a way to "spur the economy" isn't really a productive thing.

No, this is effectively the Broken Window Fallacy - a debunked theory where it proposed that breaking windows (or similar) stimulates the economy because it would cause people to buy new windows and pay for the installation. But it doesn't work like that. It's just a drain on the local economy.

School systems set the path, and it's pretty standardized when these subjects get taught. They wait until kids get more math skills for physics classes to take place, meaning the less math heavy subjects go first, like bio and earth science.
