You have explained a key part of the urban vs. rural divide. My kids are so “race blind” I have to make a concerted effort to teach them about all types of racism, direct through to institutional. Also euality vs. equity etc. It’s way easier to teach them about income inequality.

I know a few people closely that I’d consider a genius. I only know one that went into a field where their genius mattered. He changed fundamentals of microbiology. One high school dropout, one just surviving and making decent money doing whatever they try.

Ugh. Late 80s ford ranger 4 cylinder here. Everything broke, and top speed (downhill only) of about 65 mph. Good luck trying to go 55 up a hill.

Take the hat off. This was the goal. Whoops, gotta cash in and leave! I’m sure it’s super great, but I’m gone.

Not bad, just get rid of your first clause.

So many laws would have to change, and the FDA would need about 1,000x the people and money. I’m all for it, but it’s an unsolvable problem. If it is something taken orally, including food, it can basically only ever be a reactive response to people dying.

That’s… the same thing.

Whops, I thought you were responding to the first child comment.

Basically same. I don’t know if being ambidextrous is something you can be born with. I broke arms, wrists, fingers enough that functionality I had to be able to use both hands in school and sports.

By not having arms.

Such a young padawan. You will learn the forms.

If you think that’s the worst that will happen whether or not they fold…

Postage paid coastcards. Postcards on a coaster. Tailored to your location.

Just have to completely reconfigure everything physically and digitally. Or, sell something the size of a cd?

One of the best feelings in my life was returning to camp, consolidating coolers, and plunging my feet into the water in the leftover water in one of the coolers.

My cocktail lefts. Just sayin.

Dammit, no using Oddjob!

Depends so much on the kid. One learned about negative numbers when he was 6 and understood it immediately, including using them in sums, and absolute value. The other is this meme exactly in 3rd grade.

Catching up to that listing is pretty awesome. I’m not sure how you missed it, , and highly recommend for your next author n.k. jemisin. 3 consecutive Hugo awards (among many other). It’s not for everyone, but I’m not sure anyone else has accomplished that.

It’s like a big bang theory joke. Only funny to those that barely grasp the neediness.
