As a kid, our car owner manual told us how to adjust valves and set timing. Today's, they tell you not to drink battery acid.
In China, 3rd grade, they're teaching beginning calculus - here they're teaching that men can have babies.

When I was a kid literally everywhere was a smoke box and today I can eat food indoors and fly in a plane without coughing. Heck we were fine with letting someone die doing something stupid instead of putting a warning label on it. Congrats to China, that is impressive, we should attempt something similar. Science could could teach our kids to understand that the sex organ a person has determines their ability to have a child.

I like the way life has changed in my area of the pale blue dot, it's nice. Way before my time they put cocaine in medicines and thought blood letting was top notch. I dig new technology and can see past the growing pains.

I am trying to convey my optimism for (edit) the future not be mean.

It doesn’t matter what your political preferences are, I think we can all agree that Bad Lip Readings’ take on Friday night’s Speaker debate in Congress is hilarious! https://twitter.com/BadLipReading/status/1611934183110365184

I like that they do the voice over as well as the subtitles. Good stuff.

Spartan Country!
It's a Friday, in the summer and the weather is nice. Why is everyone so crabby? I have had my head bitten off way too many times this morning - and they have all been unexpected and not appropriate. Geesh... I might throw my hands up and find the BOL Good Friday Bar or something.

BTW - kindness is free people!! (this is not directed at my BOL friends)

My apologies - ramblings of a crazy person coming up.

It amuses me the things I find interesting. I frequently fall down a Wikipedia rabbit hole - this is one of those events.

The largest difference in time between two counties is 26 hours. Baker Islands is -12 UTC, while Kiribati is +14. So that means 11 pm on a Saturday night on Baker is 1 am Monday morning on Kiribati. The poor folks just completely lost Sunday! lol

The real mind job is that they're only about 3 miles apart. Wouldn't want to cross the border for work!
