I’ve noticed many people lately who have died surrounded by their family. That’s why I avoid mine.

Engaging in blatantly partisan fuckery to install a democratic senator in replacement of mitch mcconnell would be the most honest possible way to honor the legacy of mitch mcconnell. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/kentucky-governor-wont-commit-gop-appointment-mcconnell-steps-rcna103068

This small carving of a water bird was created 33,000 years ago. Sculpted in mammoth ivory, it was found in the Hohle Fels cave in Germany in 2002 and it's the earliest known representation of a bird.

"If we can't fill the offices, commercial real estate will CRASH!"

So I have to commute just to line real estate investors' pockets?

"But a commercial real estate crash could TANK the whole economy!"

I shouldn't have to spend an hour of unpaid time in my car every day to "save" the economy.

"But downtown coffee shops and bistros and dry cleaners in the are closing!"

That's more sympathetic than the real estate moguls, but again: NOT. MY. RESPONSIBILITY.

@StillIRise1963 Thanks to Ancestry, I know for sure that a significant number of my ancestors were racist, murderous fuckwads. My responsibility is to acknowledge this honestly, teach my daughter well, and continually question my privilege and identify my own ingrained racism. It'll be a work in progress for the rest of my life.

If you exercise some degrees of freedom in conducting your experiment, you can make almost any stupid hypothesis p<0.05.

False positive rates can be as high as 60%.

These researchers proved, to p<0.05, that listening to kids music made participants 1.5 years younger.
