And don’t words that end in -ix get pluralized with -ices? So you’d have Aviatrices, Dominatrices and Gladiatrices. I need some of these I can use in real life, dammit!

I haven’t heard that before, do you have a source where I could read more? I know fish at least is high in omega-3s… What is it about cooking the fat that makes it bad, and does that mean raw or rendered fats are fine?

yeah, I thought we killed satire years ago!

So, solar and wind? Both cheaper than fossil fuels at this point.

I took the phrase “small business” to mean places with an actual storefront (restaurants, small shops, studios, and so on) who use FB or IG in lieu of having their own site. For those places it makes particularly little sense because social media isn’t most people’s first port of call when they’re looking for somewhere to eat dinner or go thrifting.

What? Myself and most of my friends are Gen Z and nobody I know does this. Google Maps is always the first place I look, and 70% of the time I click through to the business’s actual site.

Hell, most of us barely use IG at all anymore

Even worse are the ones I see flying in West Virginia – you know, the state that only exists because its inhabitants didn’t want to secede along with the rest of Virginia.

Wait, what did Hyperloop kill in MD? It looks like the proposed route was from DC to Baltimore underneath MD 295 – we already have Amtrak and MARC serving that corridor.

15 passengers on average seems way higher than most buses I’ve been on. Maybe during the very busiest times, but buses run all day. The many hours they spend with just four or five people aboard will really tank the average.

Buses also have more tires than cars – usually at least 6, but sometimes 10 or more. I still doubt they’re emitting more microplastics than cars per trip but the math isn’t so simple.

Did you even bother to skim the article? That’s literally the first reason they give:

There are a few theories that seem to come up again and again. First, Gen Z simply uses technology more than any other generation and is therefore more likely to be scammed via that technology.
