Michigan went to Trump in both 2016 and 2024.

The United States had a good run. I hope I see the entire West Coast secede in my lifetime.

Unfortunately it’s land that votes, not people.

Would that I could. If it were me alone I probably would have left the country years ago. But I have my husband and he is close to his family. They are already unhappy that we don’t live in the same state as them. (My own family are pieces of Trumper Evangelical shit and I don’t speak to them anyway)

For me it’s the sound of the garage door opening.

It’s not guaranteed the employer will contribute. Half of them (including mine) do not. It’s simply a tax deferred portfolio in that case.

It’s actually the opposite. When the oxygen binds to the iron it changes from Fe+2 to Fe+3 so the binding of oxygen to the iron in hemoglobin is an oxidation process. At that point it can’t take more oxygen until it releases it in a reduction reaction.

The term “oxidation” is originally derived from reactions where a substance combines with oxygen but has since been generalized to any reaction where an electron is given up. So “oxidation” is the broader term and “oxygenation” is the specific oxidation reaction that results in binding oxygen.

On repeat it was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Oxidation is how red blood cells collect oxygen to pass to the rest of the body. In fact it is iron in hemoglobin that “rusts” to collect the oxygen. You would die if your blood didn’t “rust”.

Antioxidants have nothing to do with this.

I was today years old when I realized this thing has a name and it is called “Hellmo”.

If it’s a zoom I just shit with my headphones on.

A cuck.

Woosh

I don’t think anyone is seriously upset about it but it is #justcorporatethings.

I think it’s the phrasing that comes off out of touch.

Like expecting that we should be super grateful to the management that they are “giving us back” 4 minutes of “our time” (that we will likely have to spend doing work for the company anyway) even though there is literally nothing else to discuss.

4 minutes may not even be enough time for a bathroom break.

It’s probably only relatable if you have a corporate job.

I edited my post to include metric units for those numbers.

And sure, it’s fine to say that is short from your own personal perspective but yes statistically the average height was less back then. Even so the average height today is only about 10 cm more.

You may just be taller than average if you are that incredulous about his height. I don’t consider 5’5" (1.68 m) to be that far off from the average height of men in most countries today. If he were under say 5’ (1.52 m) I would say that is significantly shorter.

1.68m is 5’5" which is yeah short but not too far from the (self-reported) average male height in France today which is 5’9" (1.75m) (Bayesian estimates actually say 5’7" (1.70m)). During Bonaparte’s time average male height in France was 5’4" (1.62m) so he was actually taller than average by a tiny bit.

Average height has increased over time.

Did you find any good dog hats?
