Xiahou Dun posted:I think the bigger problem is he says they can't measure a one degree difference in temperature. Devils Advocate: I think the argument there is that you can't be sure. Of course you could measure at one point and measure there the next year too, but that could just be random weather, or a particularly warm year. Of course, that argument falls completely apart, if you spread it out over many places and several years and the measurements are pretty much consistent everywhere. But even then, how do you ensure that you measure every place equally? Maybe all that cold water just moved to the Mariana trench? It's slightly (but not significantly) harder than looking at a thermometer and noticing that it went up.

Counter counter - dude specified in a lab so he must mean under the simplest, non real-world conditions. And he said “measure” not “prove”. We can measure the poo poo out of it. The jabroni is even still using a decimal!

Also the literacy rates for women in America in 1660's as far as I can tell for a quick bit of research seems to be somewhere in the >20% range. So guess she's just read the bible for all the illustration of the scantly clad biblical hunks in it. Good for her.

Another Bill posted:I've never heard of this Equator ritual, is that a real thing? Line-crossing ceremonies are a very old naval tradition, and there are quite a few of them. Crossing the Equator and paying your respects to King Neptune gets you inducted into the Order of Trusty Shellbacks. Specifics of the ceremony have changed over time and place. The outright abuse and hazing has mostly died out in the US Navy these days. Although there is still an element of fun mystery, so you don't really tell people what they're in for beforehand. You Slimy Pollywog, you!

So did they stow dozens of woman dresses for the purpose of wearing them for one day? I'm no cargo expert, but that feels inefficient. I'm picturing full on Victorian dresses, which have to be hung on a mannequin, rather than just a piece of cloth which could be hung like a skirt, because that makes the whole ordeal funnier. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Jan 22, 2023 |

It's a toss-up between the incompetence of NY GOP during the primary and the incompetence of NY Dems in the general. It brings a tear to my eye to see that kind of bipartisanship in this divided era.

There's some WWII movies and any number of individual memoirs and histories that capture some of the ritual. More like skits and plays and someone needs to be the woman. As said above, it varies.

"The lefty Dnc media new strategy is to keep flipping Gop seats until the Dems are back in power." Could it be that the other party's strategy of appealing to voters with better candidates to win seats in congress is a good one? No, it's the media that is doing it.

I think news only shows up on the Freep radar if it is being boosted by Fox or some other big player in the right wing media ecosystem. Otherwise they ignore it, because if it was actually a big deal, it would all over Tucker and Hannity and etc. If they aren't saying anything about it, then by definition it isn't worth paying attention to, QED.

It was like this with George Floyd, where even Tucker was willing to admit that was a murder, right up until it became feasible that a cop might actually suffer consequences for murdering an unarmed black man. Then they all went lock step behind the idea that he was totally already dead from a drug overdose and Chauvin just found him that way
