- Comment on How come there is enough asphalt for speed bumps, but not enough to fill potholes ? 1 day ago:
Speed bumps save lives, potholes save things to complain about for votes and money at election and budget time.
- Comment on Is it OK for a baby's head to be rolled all the way back on its neck? 1 day ago:
Infants can generally support their own neck at six months.
At that point, just based on your description, I personally think a child of that age would be able to either stop lolling their head or fuss if they were uncomfortable unless they were to a point of significant distress.
- Comment on Why some people go full grey hair in their 30s? 2 days ago:
Depends who you ask.
You my boss? It’s the work. And I was in IT.
Wife? The kids.
Kids? Because I like the smell of White Out^TM^.
Just kidding. I don’t actually say those things, I make better jokes but I can’t remember them anymore because my face caught up and nobody asks anymore.
In my case it’s genetic. I started getting greys in my early 20s and was fully grey by 30. This happened to my father. This is seemingly happening to my son. But only one of two biological sons yet the other has curly hair like my father that me and the other platinum child don’t have at all.

- Comment on Economist warns that Elon Musk is about to cause a "deep, deep recession" 1 week ago:

- Comment on Adding Canada to the US would drastically increase the number of awesome people in the country. 1 week ago:
I know you mean well, but I think a lot of awesome people would die to leave Americans tied to trees with their penises in their mouths.

- Comment on Wheel of Time - for both the book and show fans 2 weeks ago:
The best way I could describe Randland (an informal term for The Wheel of Time setting) would be a less dystopian Middle Earth.
It’s a larger and happier - and even more pure in a non-earthly-religions sense. In a good way. But there’s still world ending conflict, it’s just - incoming controversial opinion - better than Middle Earth.
It’s a massive world and worth every word read. It’s a lifelong re-read for me, and I don’t even re-read LoTR.
There is a similarity to Midworld and its relation to Earth in the series, but it would be spoiler-y for me to elaborate.
