This is why they figured out in Lakota culture many years ago that it's not safe to use sarcasm in your language. Some people might not get it and that makes them feel left out. Others may think dumb things are true so it can only make your whole culture dumber and unable to know what is true or misinformation. The entire sarcastic subtype of comedy is basically just not done, condoned, or laughed at which I think it's pretty awesome

Good point, but in these scenarios you are free to just hang up. Most people I think are afraid of offending someone but if they are being assholes (salesman/scammers) you have no obligation to be nice or continue the conversation. I find it empowering, even cathartic to say something like, "Oh, you're one of those pieces of shit scammers I've heard about. Good day, piece of shit" or simply, "I don't have time for your bs" and hang up.

What does "play mean in this instance?

That's what words are for... If you pick up, and say "hello," they will say why they are calling. God damn people will do everything in their power to NOT communicate with eachother these days

Universal basic income could help us achieve this. There are people working right now to make this a reality in America

I did a podcas (I know 🙄), where we talked about how much better our civilization would run if we modeled it after a cell or organism. Like for example, only about 10% of the total amount of ATP generated by the mitochondria goes to the nucleus, so maybe the people in charge in America should only get about 10% of the total distributed wealth/resources

Kinda sweet that she was prioritizing water conservation over her own comfort level

Superman 3 beats almost ANY action movie out there. It literally has everything you could want in a movie... it doesn't take itself too seriously so it's funny as hell, has actual character development unlike anything we've seen before or since in an superhero movie, cool but believable fight scenes, morally grey characters, and RICHARD PRYOR.

That shows that he did write it because atrophied is usually only used to describe muscles, never skin and it makes 0 sense
