I wonder how that will impact those girls as they get older and start entering politics. Will it push them further left? Will they feel disparaged sooner and give up on politics sooner?

And same for the boys. By saying such dumb things so publicly at such a young age, will they face repercussions from their peers and get inoculated against manoshere-type-misogyny? Or will those beliefs become more ingrained in them and become a core piece of their identity?

Wow, such fowl language

Average and mean are the same thing (sum of everything divided by total number of things). Median is the middle number.

I think it is the opposite. Because everyone knows they don't need the subscription, right or wrong Peloton needs to make up for subscriptions losses by introducing these one-time fees.

I think you know why

I was so hoping you were going to say that they discouraged you from putting white so that it opened you up for diversity-based scholarships. I am so disappointed to hear that was not the case. What they did is really messed up.

It's both. They make it so you want to speed so they can generate revenue. Wide lanes and low speed limits can yield a lot of tickets

I'd assume it isn't see through because you load it up with dirty dishes that sit for days before you run it. No one wants to spend days staring at the crusty spoon meemaw dipped in the peanut butter and licked like an ice cream cone before the wash is finally run

That's a good attitude to have when you are trying to calm a mind anxious about whether you forgot something, but it is a really wasteful strategy long-term

You are right. Turning an adjective into a noun tends to make it more degrading because you've focused on the characteristic rather than the person. That's why referring to people as "blacks" or "females" feels icky. It's why we saw "deaf people" and not "the deafs" or "old people" and not "the olds."

By logistical issues, I assume they mean the logistics of having secret service in the jail along with the president

As the other commenter already said, it is really hard to transplant old trees. Think about how big tree roots get. There is no way to save 100% of a planted tree's roots so cuts have to be made. And by the time you are able to free the tree from the ground, you've often cut too much of its roots for it to survive.

 

I keep getting signed out of lemmy.world (in Jerboa and in a web browser). I tried resetting my password, reinstalling Jerboa, moving to my web browser, but I still have the same problem. Any ideas on how to fix this?
