    TBH, I didn't particularly like this response. I think it might have been better if she had welcomed them, and mentioned something about learning about the real world or something.

    To me it was needlessly divisive. "You don't belong here, go back to where you are welcome" is how it came off, which feels especially wrong coming from a black woman.

    Along with the other comment, I'd like to point out that many states are moving towards ranked choice voting, which will supercede the electoral college. The more people participate in voting, the more likely that will become the new way it happens.this would make every vote matter, and stop some votes from mattering more than others. Essentially guaranteeing the popular vote wins the election.

    But honestly voting for president, while very hyped, is possibly one of the least important of your voting responsibility. Local laws influence your local area far more than the president, and local changes turn into state changes, and state changes turn into federal ones.

    The president can't do anything on their own, they need support from Congress and the Senate to get anything but minor executive orders done (very limited power). People only voting for president is how we got a Republican supermajority in the house.

    If you don't vote, but are able to, you lose the right to complain about how things are going. We're all on the same bus, please do your part to make sure we don't drive off a cliff.

    Strange how of the 2k+ commercially available bibles, only Trumps meets the requirements.... Almost like it was planned or something.

  • How do our brains process reality? I heard our eyes were just low-res cameras and our brains were doing all the heavy lifting in 'rendering' reality.

    I've had this thought many times, glad I'm not alone. Also makes you wonder if possibly everyone's "favorite" color is the same color, we just all call it different things because of how we individually perceive it.

    This is a fun thought, but I can disprove this myself easily enough due to having had my favorite color change multiple times in my lifetime. Currently enjoying green.

    Going "the speed limit" is in fact not always the safest option. Where I live EVERYONE is going at least 10 over on the freeways, and I mean everyone. If you are going the speed limit here, you are adding danger to those around you because now you're an obstacle. Now if this were something they could implement on all cars at once it might make sense, but it would only affect new vehicles.

    What is this tiny thing?! (Consensus: tick larva or nymph)

    Tiniest little bug. I only saw 4 legs, but it probably has more. Adding more pics in the comments, can only upload one. Phone wouldn't really focus on it.

    So religion is a pretty common theme in his books. Stormlight and Elantris (more for the latter) have heavy religious influence. I'm reading Elantris now, and I can't imagine a man who understands religion as well as he does (based on his writing) believes anything about the TSCC. This thought just came to mind as he's describing how the one dude knows how to manipulate the masses, using their pride and shame to his own ends. Anywho, just throwing that out there. 🤷 Have a great weekend, and a lovely second Saturday everyone!

    Super weird, noticed it today on his right foreleg just above the elbow joint. Feels like there's something underneath, and had this chunky white protrusion. Can't find an exact match via Google. Expecting some sort of cyst or maybe a blocked gland?
