    • Does anyone else remember learning about the American Gilded Age's Captains of Industry? About the lack of child labor laws, unhealthy working conditions, low wages, highly treacherous factories; back when the billionaires kept getting richer because they funded the politicians willing to turn a blind eye to their unethical means of wealth, convincing themselves that the money would "trickle down" to the poor and that really this was best for everyone? Back when they were pumping tonnes of gaseous waste into the atmosphere; back when women and foreigners and people of color were treated as less than human; back when workers had no choice but to go on strike and starve for days as the only alternative?
      • Man. I'm so glad we put those days behind us.
    • We should mandate all-gender restrooms. That may sound stupid but it isn't because we should also mandate stalls that go from floor to ceiling with locks that work and amenities for all walks of life readily available.
      • And remove urinals altogether, because men are incapable of wielding them properly.
    • Are there any bona-fide Professional Mathematicians around anymore? Like, just people who pour all their time and effort into finding patterns in numbers so that all other Mathematicians and no one else can appreciate them?
    • Why do we still have popcorn at the cinema? Why not something quiet to eat, that doesn't stick in your teeth or dry your mouth to a crisp two-thirds the way into the movie? Why not, like... boba pellets? Or grapes?
    • "Fellowship of the Ring at 99% strength" you fool, each member is exactly 1/7th of the total strength, and I can explain at length why that is. 99% is after the journey's over and Frodo's lost one of his fingers.

      Oh lord, have mercy. Let it not be so. 
      If you got some lil thing sticking out below your belt, go to the men’s bathroom. If you don’t, go to the women’s bathroom. I know there are like 420.69 genders now, but let’s be real, not just using our hearts and imaginations. It’s not that terrible to go to the men’s bathroom if you think you’re a woman but haven’t had life-altering surgery yet. 

      And… you don’t know how to use a urinal???

      this is a safety thing actually

      like iirc we used to have floor to ceiling stalls but then old people would have heart attacks and stuff and wouldn't be able to get help

      plenty. probably more than ever before. i went down the math-youtube rabbit hole a while ago, and there's plenty of cool things happening down there. didn't understand most of it, but its pretty cool

      Please don't. That would probably be traumatic for someone I know well.
