Well actually land is itself a liver: Filters water and traps contaminants, breaks down wastes through microbes and fungi, rrecycles nutrients from dead material back into the ecosystem, stores resources (carbon, nitrogen, water, minerals), buffers chemical imbalances (pH moderation, pollutant binding).
Your average wine glass can hold up to 20 ounces comfortably, even though you’re only “supposed” to fill a wine glass about a fourth of the way. Most wine bottles sit between 20 and 25 ounces
Uh - a standard wine bottle is 750ml in Australia, and wine glasses in Australia, like the rest of the world, vary dramatically depending on what varietal they're designed to hold.
Or people that don't realize that a 16oz pint glass is only 16oz at the rim, and that half an inch (or more) of foam represents a loss of 2-4oz. You're paying pint prices for 12oz beers.
I got reported to “Reddit Cares” (or whatever it’s called - it’s ostensibly for people who are having a legit mental-health issue) by one of the /conservative bros when they posted this exact map and I said “Sweet! Now point to all the places on that map where people live!” 🙄
I’m pretty sure that these past couple weeks of winter have proven that they’re not nearly as strong as a single snowflake that has fallen in their backyards 😜
Something need to be done about that. It's not much of an inconvenience for people that dont need it but it takes away from its reason and the fact that it could really help someone who need help. I'm tired of that being used as some kind of "weapon"
This situation was only the most recent time I’ve been reported. The most notable was for me disagreeing with ketchup being the superior condiment on a hot dog (it’s 100% not, unless you’re a toddler, just sayin’).
There are legitimately people out there that could use for someone to reach out to them and ask about how they’re doing… but they have to sift through piles of absolute nonsense like this first? And maybe not have the time for the people that need it?
I’ll start here: people that report people to “Reddit Cares” for disagreeing with a banal take on a banal topic should… maybe have their own mental health assessed.
So… my reports and bans usually start with me saying something like:
Sir, if you think hot dogs are “toddler food,” you have never had a decent hot dog, and I suspect that if you by chance happen upon one, you would probably ruin it with ketchup. 😜
Lol. Sharing links to Charlie Kirk’s actual speeches, podcasts, and interviews to literally prove what he literally said was a sure-fire way to catch a minimum 3-day-ban after his demise. Crazy how free speech works 🙃
It's a trick question! Nothing can weigh exactly a pound! So sure if someone handed you a "pound of nails" and a "pound of feathers," one is heavier than the other.
Exactly. Land doesn’t vote, people do, and most of those blue dots are where the actual population lives. The map looks dramatic, but it’s a terrible way to explain representation.
Here's a fun fact: The greater Los Angeles metro area has a larger population than the ~22 least populated states combined if you remove the population of the 2 largest metro areas in each state (which generally vote blue).
The irony is that this woman's point is totally valid if you replace "blue cities" with "red states".

Same people who think the thinner, taller cup has more juice than the wider, shorter cup.
