“By precisely reflecting sunlight that is endlessly available in space to specific targets on the ground, we can create a world where sunlight powers solar farms for longer than just daytime, and in doing this, commoditize sunlight.”

You’re right, my bad. My comment was directed at the actual OP, though, so you can rest assured the comment wasn’t for you

“You see them everywhere.” That’s it? This opinion feels way too specific for that to be the only thing on your mind lol. Maybe at least some context? Are you from somewhere where people are less tall on average? Is there something you don’t like about tall people? Like the other guy said, give us a rant! Let’s hear where this is going.

For real though, could you elaborate? Give us a few reasons why. Also, probably would have been a better post for the unpopular opinion community

This chart really makes no sense at all. How does Lord of the Flies lie at the intersection of The Handmaid’s Tale, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451?

One’s about an ultra-conservative theocracy, one’s about government surveillance and propaganda, and one’s about destroying books because people’s attention spans have reduced past the ability to read and they’re too long/confusing/depressing. I guess authoritarianism might lie at the heart of all these? Meanwhile, though, Lord of the Flies is more about the dangers of unchecked groupthink and how it can lead to violence and cruelty.

Whenever I get a capcha of anyone on a vehicle, I always make it a point to highlight the entirety of the driver too because I’m not going to just let Google train its self-driving vehicles to just ignore that every motorcycle has a rider on it.

This must be somewhere in the Midwest, that’s the only place strange enough to think “theses” rhymes with “Reece’s”.

Ok kids, let’s review the requisites for involuntary hospitalization in the US (specifically regarding suicidal ideation)!

Do you:

1. Have a plan? ✔️

2. Have the means to carry out that plan? ✔️

3. Expressed the intention to carry out that plan in the immediate future? ✔️

If all of the above are true and you tell your mental health professional, then you better pack those bags! If not, you get to go home.

(That said, I’ve at least heard stories of some mental health clinicians apparently not understanding these minimum guidelines and committing people involuntarily with only 1 or 2 of these requisites having been met, so it may be worth it to review these guidelines with your clinician before getting too deep into it)

“History is written by the victors” is a tired cliché that doesn’t always hold up super well if you spend a moment to consider it.

Who conquered Rome? Surely, it was a people remembered for their great military prowess, right? Nope, still commonly remembered as barbarians thousands of year later.

The Mongols had one of the largest empires in history, and yet in much of the lands they conquered, they’re remembered as being monstrously ugly brutes, which is where words like “mongoloid” and “mongrel” come from.

Song plays twice a day on the radio station my work is always tuned to. I only just learned awhile ago that Everlast is the same dude rapping in “Jump Around”.
