Dunno, this is the vibe I get He was already convicted. Think of it in terms of good people that went to jail for doing good things, like a doctor who gave weed to a cancer patient illegally.

No screen shots because I don't feel like doing that to people I personally know, but so so many people on my Facebook right now are sharing the formula recipes from the 50s and 60s, while managing to leave out that they're short several vital nutrients and vitamins and such, that need to be separately supplemented for. Commenting on them about that, and that while they can make good stopgap measures for the formula shortage, they are not good long term solutions is getting....rather old. Especially since so many of them are also adding "I bet it's healthier than what's out there now!"

I find it generally the most helpful way to think about things is to imagine that I am talking to someone else about it. It helps to make my writing more readable and just generally is quite useful for understanding and working through ideas.

That just reminded me of that chick with the conspiracy theory about the ethiopian calendar, literally said something about how it was invented before the gregorian one so "so they knew better than us" What the hell is this mindset? Do they use lead based makeup in their scheele's green powder room before taking a horse to go post on facebook via telegram?

I don't get it People believe that the time in which you were born has celestial provenance and that the position of various bodies in outer space has some physical and spiritual governance over your life. Is the idea that a calendar might have some importance really so strange given that?

tbf those ancient people are smarter than these dumb people because they used their astronomy knowledge to 1) know the earth isnt flat. 2) also know that the year was 365.25ish days too. but didnt really care.

They only didn’t care because the moon is way easier to observe since you can stare at it AND it has observable changes with the naked eye AND it was consistent.

Skwirl posted:That's just a new version of the 2012 Mayan apocalypse theory. Yeah her whole thing was that the ethiopian calendar (which is old and therefore more correct) is in 2014, which means 2020 was their 2012, and the mayan calendar (also old and correct) said the world was going to end in 2012, so they were predicting covid.

The biggest consequence is that you don't have any risk of legal jeopardy, so you are no longer protected against self-recrimination. So you lose a lot of the 5th amendment protection and can be compelled to testify.

Ford believed that if it was accepted at least Nixon would be on record admitting he was guilty I mean man maintained his innocence until the end but still
