Seneca Village was 5 blocks. Central Park is 153 blocks.
Actually, it probably did, considering that Seneca Village was only 5 blocks, a tiny fraction of Central Park.
2·2 days agoPeople aren’t just betting on a binary choice of who they think will win. They bet based on the current price of each outcome. If you think Magyar has an 80% chance of winning, but the prices for Yes are $0.90 for Magyar and $0.10 for Orban, you buy Orban Yes because it is a better deal. The market should settle out at what the true odds are. The bigger bettors have more say, yes, but they should also presumably have more insight into the outcome, or they wouldn’t risk so much.
When a headline ends in a question mark, the answer is always “No.”
It’s weirdly disappointing that all the dice were 2-sided
That yellow color probably scares birds away. All of the local predators are descendants of individuals who just happened to be scared of that color for some reason, and they were the only ones who didn’t eat the poison.
That kid must have been livid with his parents.
What country is this where you have to pass an oral exam to graduate and parents can sue schools over exam results?

Foid is short for femoid, which is what incels call women. It’s being used ironically here. The post is basically saying “Look what Japanese girls can do!”
She even made 2 little pinpoints of light for eyes
Funny image, but this was clearly made by a globularist. No self-respecting flat earther believes in outer space. Earth is either incased in a dome with celestial objects on or inside the dome, or it is an infinite plane that the powers that be don’t want you exploring beyond the ice wall.

1·12 days agoThe original comment we are threaded under is claiming that the Trump administration, by committing the clear war crime of targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran, would also be committing genocide. Do you agree with this assessment? Do we need to lump all evil acts under the definition of genocide or risk being guilty of “apologia”?
The original spelling could imply that dogs’ directed evolution also made them dumber
I don’t disagree that bigotry and marginalization can and do lead to genocide. But they are not themselves genocide. It’s just a semantic thing, not a way to excuse bigotry. To the extent that this argument appears to excuse bigotry, it just underscores my point that the broadening of the definition of genocide stems from a desire to find appropriately strident language to describe bigotry and murder that is not genocide by the original definition.
Genocides that don’t include an attempt to exterminate a genetic line are not genocide. They’re something else; maybe something just as bad, maybe something worse, but something else.
Why would he lie? Is there a real threat of punishment?
