  1. Comments like these suggest you haven’t been paying attention to the dysfunction of the US Congress these last several years It’s more than covid relief. It’s economic stimulus. If equity were the benchmark, we’d be talking about far more than the minimum wage. Inequality has become far worse this last year. Last year alone, people who were already billionaires added a total of a trillion more dollars to their net worths
  2. No. About 60% of them it seems
  3. Not all Americans support what’s happening. It’s a hasty generalization to suggest otherwise
  4. Yes, but likely separate from covid relief No, there is great strength in him, but he’s neither emperor nor magician. Yes, and many are, but several come from states that are extremely red
  5. Build a form, place the leaves, and pour clear epoxy. Bonus points if you then use a lathe to shape it further: https://www.instructables.com/Epoxy-Resin-and-Scrap-Wood-Bowl-Woodturning-How-To/ I saw a cool lamp made out of epoxy and pine cones turned on a lathe, but that's also off-topic (my apologies to the OP): https://www.pbs.org/video/resin-and-woodturned-table-lamp-bnej68/
  6. You misspelled executed
  7. I'm sure it will once your ideas do. Also, you're already allowed to write in mainstream sections. The issue is that you're not writing about accepted ideas or those in the mainstream based on centuries of evidence.
  8. You've reminded me of another product I've had some fun with. It's by Rustoleum and used to be called NeverWet, but seems to have been rebranded as Shield H2O. I once sprayed a regular old paper facial tissue (Kleenex) with this stuff and was able to use it as a bowl that successfully held water without breaking or deteriorating. While I'm not a standard barometer of what people in the world may think, IMO it was super cool. https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/shield-h2o/
  9. Heated ones Also, oily ones
  10. Yes, but by upending his username to the end of every thread title he creates he is better optimizing his ideas in search engine results... nonsense or not
  11. If you want to break a bowl or drinking glass with a hammer or power drill, it’s not the sound waves you’ll be using to do so
  12. While you may take offense at the comments, you and your “argument” are not the same thing and his comments were very clearly about your “argument,” not you.
  13. I find the advanced rail energy storage system to be a cool idea, but may not be precisely what’s being sought by the OP https://interestingengineering.com/energy-storage-trains-work-power-gravity
  14. This was apparently too much to ask
  15. When you draw an outline around the one on the left, it even looks like a middle finger sticking up at you 🖕
  16. As Phi already shared, that was not what I did. I’m quite capable of referencing a dictionary or Google myself. I DID comment on the lack of credibility of one of the websites you provided when asked to support your claim that it was “TRUTH!!” that the US capitalistic system WILL soon collapse. When I made this comment, you then suggested I’m clearly over reactive and emotional about the word Marxism. It’s fairly well apparent that you either have a problem with reading comprehension, intellectual honesty, or perhaps both. Regardless, none of this is either interesting nor on-topic. This thread is about the insurrection on January 6. If you’d like to further explore the likelihood (or what you claim is an inevitability) of the capitalistic parts of the US economic system collapsing, then please do so in a separate thread. See above
  17. There’s no there there. We see shiny stuff on Mars all of the time. This is nothing new and has happened with past photos. Sometimes, it’s just plastic from the rover or landing vehicle itself: https://www.cnet.com/news/curiositys-new-bright-shiny-object-is-actually-martian/ https://www.cnet.com/news/nasa-identifies-mars-rovers-mysterious-bright-object/ Other times, it’s a cosmic ray being detected by the camera equipment: https://www.cnet.com/news/mysterious-light-in-mars-image-sparks-curiosity/ But in most cases, it’s just our feeble human brains forcing us to see patterns even when they’re not actually there, like this woman on Mars (and like is almost certainly happening here in this silly thread): Pareidolia strikes again!
  18. Technically, it depends on the nature of sound emitted by the drill and the object(s) within the room under question, but in the VAST vast majority of situations your answer of NO is certainly correct. ‘I’m increasingly convinced we’re chatting with a bot, though.
  19. That you must better define your terms before meaningful discussion may occur. 1. Honest 2. Dignified 3. Expectation 4. Respect
