It’s just a joke about the 621.

I wasn’t comparing them to that. Making a joke about the 621 in the lawsuit amount. It’s a furry-associated number.

Are major record labels furries?

Username checks out. If they weren’t so awful, maybe people would care about defending them, but there’s just all-around awful. They’re uglier, harder to use, and seem to frequently get damaged (probably mostly from people trying to fight with them or just bending them out of the way because damaging them is worth it to avoid dealing with them…

I have some of those. There’s just a sliding mechanism built into the pane on the inside. No string. Much cleaner look and so much easier to use.

Wouldn’t that be minors? Still, every group except young children were about the same, so minors as a whole would still be lower than non-minors.

Young children were like half the rate of adults and adolescents. Even if you averaged the 6-11 in with them, they’d still be below adults and adolescents.

Severe/morbid obesity is a BMI of 40+, rather than 30 for obese. I’ve been at the low end of that briefly and started getting out of breath doing things like going to my car, so I immediately decided to drop weight. Bar things like severe depression or significant medical issues, I don’t see how people are able to maintain that kind of weight when it has such an obvious direct impact on quality of life.

Curious if the survey also included children, where the rates tend to be lower.

Oh yeah… no clue how I forgot about that. Guess I was specifically thinking about Clinton/Bush because they’re the ones who’ve had multiple in the family on the ballot.

Nixon, Ford, Carter were 70’s, not after the 70’s. Reagan’s VP was a Bush, wasn’t it? Maybe they’re also including the primary ballots to count Clinton in 2008? But I don’t think she ran in 2012…

Was your brother my 6th grade history+english teacher who spent more of class time having recess or playing Risk (the board game) than anything else?

My AP history teacher liked to make up stuff. But like, he’d say he made it up right after telling the made-up thing.

The one with the internet, whatever that’s called.

Many just detect temperature changes. And upside down can will spray cold air. If there’s any space between the doors or between the door and the frame, you can spray it in and it’ll detect the temperature motion. Fancier models do exist that are more specific, so YMMV.

Breaking into buildings by triggering their REX-sensors?

I hate when I try to remember my master password without typing it and panic that I’ve forgotten my password. But when I got to type it, muscle memory is still there so no problem.

I have one like tiramichu and also like it. Use it constantly and it’s convenient to be able to share things on my screen with people on the other side of my desk occasionally, making it more practical than something built-in to the laptop.

Electron microscope of the worlds smallest violin. A way of mocking other’s problems by pretending to pretend to care.

I’m sure they’ll behave in the future thanks to these Big fines…

Huh? Having fins isn’t a nationality? Irish was just an example of an adjective. Not sure why you are bringing it up?

trans people are self-defined so it’s not something outside their control.

Sorta, but the statement seems to show a pretty relevant and significant misunderstanding. Trans isn’t like an easily externally identifiable trait like skin color (technically an autopsy could potentially provide evidence for being trans even in those who’ve never taken hormones or done any gender-affirming surgeries, but like we are talking about correlates, not defining features). But like neither is autism. You find out basically by asking.

For sports, some leagues have started dealing with the existence of trans people and hormone-doping cis women by simply making sports divisions include hormone requirements. Its not really about whether the person is trans or cis though, so it means some cis women who aren’t doping get excluded from cis women sports with such rules.

PS: gender and race are both just made up.
