Wonder how many new ones it's creating.
Scientist: 'Look at this science thing that is definitely true because DNA!' Narrator: 'It wasn't true'

Was this description meant to be ironic, or was that accidental?
Just a double-decker couch, nothing to worry about.
Probably both, except within the bounds of easily 'random' bounds. Supposing it were possible for a mammal to be green, it wouldn't matter of green were 'better', unless it happened at the right time. Orange could have won out simply because it was good enough to do one thing (camoflauge for pretty) and didn't have enough downside to message that benefit (high visibility to hunters or less valuable prey). Heck, a gene that turned a lion invisible could have turned up and it wouldn't be guaranteed to carry forward even if it didn't have any downsides if the random recipient also happened to be clumsy or unlucky and died of some random injury or disease.
Evolution doesn't really have any tools that aren't random, at least until intelligence came around to provide other 'non natural' paths, though of course those are just as natural as the others, just that we think we're special and above nature.
Hard to follow. Are you saying you’re living with type A introverts, and that is causing some problems for you? You say this type prefers quiet activities but no concern for stillness…are you being distracted by their quiet but active activities or something?
I mean the math checks out, but holy crap, you're 43, but at 19 '9/11 hadn't happened yet....'
Yeah, or maybe mocking a group that is a little too gullible and full of itself with what is arguably a broadly harmless prank isn't the same thing as tricking someone vulnerable into drinking bleach to make friends or something.
Honestly, tricking someone into eating something many people eat willingly isn't the moral quagmire you seem to think it is.
Fair, but looking both ways would be like 'watch out for wood that is discolored or seems sketchy in any way', your comment was more like 'it is absolute bullshit to encourage anyone to walk across the street for any reason and you should feel bad!'
Which is exactly why the tariffs are stupid at one more level. The only thing they're good for in theory is to level the playing field for non-tariffed products, to make them competitive to make 'here', but no company in it's right mind is going to invest in the infrastructure it's meant to drive knowing they aren't guaranteed in the slightest.
Imagine if they were trying to catch the frog on the court though
Technically I'm their best interests to get as many countries to all retaliate at the same time.
Funny? Do you think religious schools don't exist?
