I really hate Trump and it feels weird to defend him, but i think everyone is freaking out over what is the closest thing to a witticism that Trump has ever uttered. He’s stupid and has low self-awareness; however, this sounds like a facetious comment - possibly tinged with self-deprecation. Am i giving him too much credit?

This is wild. Does the IDF have the capability of making a person’s cell phone explode? Are they able to hack the power management or something? Is almost everyone on earth carrying a bomb? WTF.

This is the perfect answer. Self-reinforcing loop

Imagine needing to other someone so badly that you have a tantrum because someone created a name for the "default" category. Peterson views trans people as so subhuman he doesn't even want there to be a word for non-trans people.

Fortunately, lemmy isn’t a peer-reviewed journal, so speculation is perfectly acceptable.

I speculate that teflon pans might have contributed to the egg thing.

The headline makes it sound like he vetoed a tax break. The article sasy the opposite: that he vetoed a suspension of the tax break. Typical Kemp bullshit.

Hi! With the OED, it has been like that at least since I started university in 2007. However, lots of public libraries have subscriptions. I just go to my library website, login, and follow the link to the OED. There are many other reference tools that are also included in my library card. Libraries rule!

Edit: you can check merriam-webster for free, I think

Different child field? This is like my first two read-throughs of a new paper in my own specialization!
