They just wanna sell some shit. Like clocks. And guns. And

it does scale with early childhood nutrition

me, remembering I’m into monster girls:
i have committed a classic blunder and not been careful what i wished for

i wish i had a homo sapien gf 🥺

that’s especially impressive considering the lack of easy handholds

PugJesus provide for tribe. We carve many heavenly arrows next to PugJesus name on cave wall!

oh shit, that’s true. probably easier to pancake a bird that hasn’t slept in a week because its nest keeps getting destroyed

every time I read about this I’m always impressed by 1960s Chinese childrens’ (and adults) ability to effectively hunt extremely tiny birds. especially by just yeeting rocks at them

they’re small targets that move incredibly fast and those kids were just doming them with deadly accurate aim. built different

that good old Presbyterian doctrine of predestination

“it was, uh, it was my time anyway you guys!”

knowing gen Z they’d probably invent a 300+ language pidgin comprised almost entirely of memes which would be impossible for the rest of us to learn. it’d be glorious

TIL what kanji are called in Mandarin (I’m a weeb and have only studied Japanese haha)

i need a print of this lol

happy ye olde pride

also hot take: US schools should teach 100–300 most common kanji (their meanings and pronunciations in Mandarin) if nothing else to dispel the myth that logograms are “too hard to learn” for English speakers

oh damn I guess cats have been inspiring humans to intentionally use incorrect grammar/spelling in a cutesy manner to caption cat pictures for much longer than I would have thought

wait, was the government so disorganized that they essentially fell for “I died in the war, you cant tax me”…?

I suppose being at war doesn’t do a country’s administrative organization any favors though

takes some tough ass motherfuckers to invade Russia in winter and not only not all die horribly, but actively use it as a fucking strategy

e.g. the DIY bioreactor with fully open source specs and instructions published by Four Thieves Vinegar Collective

depending on the compound it could be anywhere from easy to impossible, but most likely it’s just hard but still possible

we’ll get back there either because we finally figured out how to live peacefully, or because we didn’t and we nuked ourselves back to the stone age

oh shit the extreme environmentalists are on their side already

amphetamines used to be legal in Japan? as someone who has to take them medically and has a real bad time when I can’t fill my script, oof, I feel for them
