But if you want to have sex with them, RFK says that girls start puberty at nine so that should be the line.

That’s what they said.

Nussy is the one that made me throw up a bit.

The point is that, despite being in the same bill, they shouldn’t be. One is already covered in existing law, related to adult exclusive activities recognized as such the world over (porn for clarity). The other is defining a new phenomenon that has yet to be defined as being exclusive to adults and currently exists within spaces for children to the point of predation and is akin to existing child targeted products (loot boxes again for clarity).

Lumping even seemingly similar things is a bad practice that is more meant to poison pill bills (among other things) than actually execute legislative duties.

I’m a fan of the shortest splitline algorithm.

As an American I also urge you guys to do that.

Off topic: because of people calling xitter “shitter”, I’m now reading xtian “shittian”. And I’m ok with that.

Feels like there should be an argument about facing one’s accuser in here somewhere.

Alcoholism? Not sure on the voices.

Faraday bags make great stocking stuffers.

You cannot directly compare two populations without accounting for differences in size. Doing otherwise is very bad data science. That’s why it’s per 100,000 and thus takes size out of the equation. Which is good. That’s a confounding factor that is trivial to deal with. Given my previous observation that many US states have populations directly comparable to other countries, the “comparing states with countries” complaint goes from vaguely plausible to inane immediately.

Thank you for defining how averages work?

Because US states have populations and areas comparable to other countries. Just the US topping the charts is expected. How many states you have to get through to see other countries is interesting.

How is a per-capita incarceration rate, with a reference to the superset included directly on the plot, misleading? Other than including more than El Salvador for the sake of external reference, which is almost certainly a size issue.

Yup. I switched to linux on my home computer and now the more time I spend with it, the more I pity my work computer for the cancer it has to deal with.

I watched it with a guy on my floor in college. First time for both of us. He was told before that that was the ending so we were both tearing up and he thought it was about to roll credits.

Adding on to the Pope bit. The Pope snubbed Vance, who is Catholic, initially and sent a bishop to go lecture him on compassion instead of going himself. Vance eventually got a face to face where, and I’m fuzzy on this part, he also lectured him on compassion alongside a photo op. Then died the next day

…Where do you normally pee that’s, if not peaceful, at least alone?!

Yup. Doing a non thesis masters and holy fork this is not my domain.

He did snub Vance, so it’s at least implied.

I’ve been told it’s because they never get the satisfaction of catching the dot.
