What the fuck

How would it be unhealthy? Do you not wash your ass in the shower? Does spit and snot not come out of your body in the shower?

Can you explain why you think that?

When competing with an entire ecosystem of sexually reproducing species, it’s an evolutionary dead end.

There’s gotta be a point at which sexual reproduction comes into play, otherwise it’s an evolutionary dead end

The 1936 USSR Constitution was immediately followed by The Great Purge and only lasted 40 years

Trump and his aides have pressed war planners for assurances that chaos produced by any U.S. military action would calm down in time for the midterm election season to kick into high gear.

He has no idea what he’s dealing with here. Iran is not Venezuela. I wonder who in his administration is pushing this and feeding him info about Iran, because he certainly doesn’t care about this independently

Don’t forget our favorite New World plant:

I didn’t say that. Yahweh used to be a part of a polytheistic religion and over time became the only god. That doesn’t make polytheism and monotheism the same thing, but it does make Allah and God the same god as the Yahweh from the original polytheistic religion.

Isn’t there evidence that the Canaanite gods El and Ba’al were merged into Yahweh, who remains to this day the Christian god and the Islamic Allah? These people are burning their own god

Edit: My Lemmy client is messing up and won’t let me respond to comments. Just wanted to add that yeah, the Muslim Allah is the same Abrahamic God that Christians and Jews worship. In fact, the name “Allah” is directly derived from the god “El”:

The majority of scholars consider[Allah] to be derived from a contraction of the Arabic definite article al- and ilāh “deity, god” to al-lāh meaning “the deity, the God.” Originally, ʾilāh was used as an epithet for the West Semitic creator god ʾIlu (the Ugaritic version of El), before being adopted as the proper name itself for this god

El, Ba’al, Yahweh, God, and Allah are all wrapped up in each other

A lot of “investigations” going on. Call me when they successfully bring charges

I’m going to guess it has to do with how quickly the temperature change occurs, or other environmental factors prior to the freeze. It seems to be a somewhat rare occurrence, even in places where it gets very cold

Trump deserves a scathing Picard dressing-down before he’s brought to the brig

While there’s plenty to criticize about the founding of the US, eg the northern colonies having to compromise with the southern colonies on slavery, the reality is that expanding voting power to all white land-owning men was a pretty revolutionary concept at the time, where prior to that, power in European culture almost universally derived from birthright. The US Constitution also set us on a course where voting power has continually been expanded and now encompasses all US citizens.

Unfortunately, forces are trying to consolidate power for a small group again, and our system of voting has been continually undermined for about 40 years through the rolling back of voting rights and severe gerrymandering, to where the general public is losing power over our government.

Is this real? I keep having to ask this…

Edit:

I tried really hard to understand what you’re trying to say, but failed

You’ll find most of Chile’s observatories are in the Atacama Desert, and that almost all of the Atacama Desert is in Chile. The high elevation, incredibly low humidity, and remote location make for dark, clear skies

Braindead take. I’ve heard literally no one say what’s on the right.
