If the shit really hits the fan (the US comes apart due to division and debt), I'd propose New England and New York join Canada as separate provinces. That increases Canada's GDP by ~160%, making it a solid third place behind China and whatever's left of the USA.

Gratitude -- to the universe, for example -- for the good things you have received is one thing. Appreciation expressed to a specific sentient being for something they chose to do for you is something else. Not knowing the difference between these reflects an attitude of instrumentalization.

Doesn't that make politeness to humans meaningless? If someone says "thank you" to me, I may think they see me as a fellow human and appreciate that I have exerted effort to help them ... until they say the same thing to the toaster.

I've always secretly believed that You're So Vain really *is* about me. When I walk into a party, it does take a while for me to get my sea legs.

Why can't a fighters clothes be weighed separately? They weigh her clothed. Then (if needed) she goes into a private space (verified ahead of time to be empty), disrobes, and hands her clothes out to the official who weighs them and subtracts that amount from the original weigh-in amount.

I know I'm naive, but it seems like, if the toilet (US government) gets full enough with shit (debt), they will eventually have to flush it (print a hyperinflationary amount of dollars).

The ASMR deportation video and the "Closing Time" post make these the worst people that ever lived. The Nazis did terrible things too, but I don't remember them ever trying to get cute with it.

How many legs does a dog have, if you call the tail a leg? Four. Calling the tail a leg does not make it one.

It always seems like you're about to run out of parchment paper until you realize that there is no inner cardboard tube. It's parchment paper all the way down. I feel there is a deep truth here.
