Fuck that scale bar though. The decimal separator makes it look like the human hair is 10cm thick.

The Fermi paradox is the discrepancy between the lack of conclusive evidence of advanced extraterrestrial life and the apparently high likelihood of its existence.

Crazy redundant. Had to make the hard choice of either cropping or giving credit.

The first person to coin the word meme was Richard Dawkins in his book 'the selfish gene'. He also postulates in the same chapter that religion is a particular form of a meme. So you're one hundred percent correct!

You might already know this, but letting cats play with loose pieces of rope is kind of dangerous. My friend had a really expensive cat operation because the lil guy ate the entire rope and it screwed up his intestines.

Super cute though.

Some friends of mine in new Zealand had their own company growing and selling lily's and other plants. Became a huge thing, bought a huge house. A decade ago they sold their entire company and went to picking strawberries. They just pick strawberries all day every day, and they love it. I was pretty jealous. So maybe you could stay in your field but just a completely different position. You'll already have connections and experience.

But it's not about hopelessness. It's about coming to terms with having lived a full life and being fully ready for a dignified end of it. My girlfriend works in a Dutch nursing home and has had the privilege of assisting a couple of euthanasia tracts for the elderly, and she says it's one of the most magnificent things she was able to do for someone, emotionally speaking. People are very clear about the reasons (which have to be not only discussed, but thoroughly vetted by 2 doctors) and do not make this decision lightly. These is a very high level of clear communication between the family, doctors and patients about all relevant aspects for everyone involved.

I think when you and I reach that age, we will have very different thoughts on life and death.

Hi everyone,

Me and my SO are flying on Monday to your beautiful country to drive around in a campervan for 3 months. We booked 3 great walks, and are super excited to check out your nature, culture, wines and dines.

I am a little bit anxious to buying a campervan though. Like, what if takes weeks to find a good one? What if we find a good one after some days which breaks down a few days afterwards? You know, standard stuff.

If any of you have any tips for buying a used 2-birth campervan around Auckland, I'd love you forever. Is it better to go to a dealer, or get one from Trademe or Facebook? Should we wait a few days to get the AA pre-purchase check? Which dealers are good or infamously bad?

Thanks!

Is c level a motorcycle or an e-bike? I've never seen an icon for an e-bike before, and if it is, I am loving the conciseness of the design. If not, there's no way a motorcycle is better than a line bus right?

Just a bonus note from a Dutch guy, the text just below say lekker blijven likken, or: 'just keep on licking'.

I think the movie was great actually. Acting was proper, music was really catchy all the way, jokes were super on point and well timed, and the set design was amazing. Not the best movie ever of course, but definitely one that was added on my re-watch list directly after viewing. Loved the story and societal message as well

Dolphins would have a pufferfish take the coke, then eat the pufferfish. It's very efficient.
