homey blatant about stealing that geass look.

True man of the people.

Triangle Shirtwaist would certainly still be something folks would remember in 1914, having just happened 3 years prior.

I give giftcards to the bookstore to my niece and nephew because if I gave them straight cash they'd blow it on trinkets and junk they'd forget about in minutes.

For reference on the no training side:

Dr. Dre and Dr. Venture: Both possess honorary doctorates. The former from UCLA, the latter from a Tijuana community college.
Dr. Pepper: Charles T. Pepper did have a medical doctorate. He is cited as a possible source of the name.
Dr. Evil: Evil medical school.
Zoidberg: Claims he lost it in a volcano, more likely a art history degree.
Dr. Horrible: Likely physics though he claims Horribleness (though it could be a catchphrase.)
Dr. Seuss: Intended to get a Doctorate of Philosophy, got an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters.
The Doctor: Per This - While pretending to be the Doctor in an effort to save herself from an army of Cybermen, one of the planet’s deadliest enemies, in Death in Heaven, Clara said: ‘I don’t even really have a doctorate. Well Glasgow University, but then I accidentally graduated in the wrong century.’
Doc: Does become a doctor at Storybrooke hospital in a live action show, "Once Upon a Time", apparently not a surgeon though.
Spin Doctors: No doctors.

I feel like a fair amount of those on the trained side aren't medical doctors (Phil, Ock, Robotnik, Lector, Honeydew) or at the very least, aren't folks you'd want around for your heart attack.

Meanwhile in Iran and China...

The U.S. doesn't need to help, they just need to stop hindering, as I understand it.

I remember reading a statistic about roundabouts that, when first introduced to a new area, the accident rate increases slightly for a year before dropping like a stone when folks get used to it.

More of a "Bohemian Rhapsody" guy personally, but I'll give it a go.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel had that gimmick and was pretty good.

After a bit of looking into it: He has an unmonetized alt channel zackrawrr that is his primary streaming channel, but his main asmongold channel is still monetized and can be subscribed/donated to. I don't personally follow the guy (as the only things I've heard about him have been uninteresting at best, and horrifying at worst [e.g. rat alarm clock] and have no interest in WoW.), so I was unaware. As a general statement regarding streamers though, what I've said is correct.

I've heard that it's a two week ban, which for a streamer is huge, since any day your banned, subscriptions do not auto-renew. Guy will lose half his recurring income. Depending on the fan he could get it back of course since they could re-sub after he's back, but there's still gonna be a big chunk of folks who will either forget, forgot they were subbed to begin with and thus not notice they were un-subbed, or just use that as their clean break moment.

¿por qué no los dos?

They prob learned they can't fuck around after the San Andreas remaster debacle.

The best car

Teslas aren't even the best electric car. On top of that I would 100% want a Rivian over a cybertruck. Yeah goofy headlights... but better then a wholeass goofy body.

Lemmy shitposter thinks House of the Dragon actors are not a valuable source of opinions outside of acting, even if he does agree with them.

Wonder if that pepsi machine placement paid for the commercial

Get the males wearing skirts and that policy will likely get an update.

Don't feed the trolls.

Of course nowadays its nearly impossible to tell whos spouting racial slurs to get folks mad and whos doing it because they're just an asshole.

Nice meme.

American omelettes are thicker, fluffier, have more fillings, and often have some browning on the outside of them. After those in difficulty you have French omelettes which are thinner, cheese and butter at most, and no browning. Then there's the Japanese omelette which is a whole other thing.

There's also others beyond those like the spanish omelette (which is extra thick.) and tamagoyaki (which is a rolled omelette that takes a special pan) but personally I'm not especially interested in either.

tldr the electoral college is bullshit that has run its course.

Every state gets a minimum of three electoral college votes. Those votes are based on the amount of senators and representatives that state has, Two senators plus a minimum of one representative. Ostensibly this should make the electoral college a simple middleman for the popular vote. Two things prevent this:

1. Nearly every state (48/50) does winner takes all for their votes, so even if the state goes 51/49 the winner gets all the electotal votes for that state, which in places like California and Texas is a huge swing.
2. The house was limited in size in 1909, which in turn has given the senate more weight in the electoral college division. 20% of electoral votes are due to the senate, giving smaller states far more electoral weight then they should have.

If the house was properly set by population (lets pretend 1 rep per 100k population.) then somewhere like California would have approx. 400 house members (~40 million pop.), 2 senators, and 402 electoral college votes. Wyoming, with ~600,000 population, would have 6 house members, 2 senators, and 8 electoral votes. Currently those two are at 54 and 3 electoral votes respectively. A ratio of 50:1 in that projection vs. 18:1in reality.

Compound the aforemention representation issues by a bunch of other states that also get that unfair representation, and we end out with a system where the election gets decided by a couple purple states even if the Dem candidate wins the popular vote.

Heres hoping we can somehow survive in the mean time. After all there's basically no other rom com manga out there with a generic male lead and boatloads of women simping over him because he's, "nice". Nope, not a one.
