She asked her mother to bury her in a white dress, but the mortician said a closed-casket funeral was more appropriate due to the severity of injuries to her face and extremities.

Huh, maybe I should give it a try…..

How about dazzle points? Sparkleshine?

Reading small font text has not been shown to cause damage to the eyes (although you may experience eye strain from prolonged accommodation). However, long-duration near work has been found repeatedly to be associated with a greater risk of developing myopia or nearsightedness: https://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12889-022-14377-1

I’m a visual psychophysicist. We often recommend that people take breaks when doing near-work. The 20-20-20 rule: look at something that is 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes.

Continuously adding the Evolutions pile of evidence is a good thing

Ah, Barney Stinson in real life

Sounds like a government commission could really stamp out all these conspiracy theories. Even vindicate the good prince /s

That’s so bold of you to assume they’re making the high school bullies do their own paperwork.

We couldn’t even get them to fill out a single page card for the national crime database.

MAGA: so a stolen election judge you say?

Meanwhile everybody is complaining about how dumb Meidas Touch is. Excuse me, are we not even going to bother copying Fox News feeding talking points to people with a pulse?

Reminds me of a billionaire who went “woke” because he did the research and realized it’s far far far more effective to just start building farms around his home city then building a fancy bunker for him to die in. Actually building public infrastructure with redundancy.

Also society isn't going to collapse overnight.

That’s the other thing. Society is more likely not to collapse, but just adapt. Half your country could be wiped out by a nuke. If the capitol was taken out then you’re just entering government less warzone like Darfur. They still have trade etc in those regions. Eventually surviving external government exert influence and prop up their preferred government.

Or the capitol survives, the housing market crashes, everybody becomes poor, disgruntled young guys force through a vote for a strong daddy to lead them through this tough time.

The movie “the road” is horrible but unlikely. The Last of Us military city states is more probable. Or just reading a history book.
