  • From an outsider’s perspective, the whole affair just really brings home how much the US is an empire that can bomb anyone, anywhere in the world, at a moment’s notice. Often with collateral damage.

    Y’all are mad the current US administration are bumblefucks. We’re mad that there’s even such a concentration of power for bumblefucks to be at the helm of to begin with.

    The US-led order was always going to be a risk to the rest of the world if you never shaped up your electoral process. Which you haven’t.

    :(




  • It’s cursed because if you’re not gonna use metric, then don’t use it.

    Do drams per pound of body weight or something like that. Still cursed because it’s not metric, but less so.

    Or do the thing that’ll make everyone* happy, just use metric.

    (*me, personally)

    Moles are somewhat cursed, but we do need some standard number of molecules, else all our chemistry would be in insanely large numbers. May as well make it something related to the gram.

    Though, in fairness, I will grant, it’s one of the less metric-y units out there since atomic weights aren’t perfect round numbers anyway, other than carbon.

    Perhaps we could have standardised a mole as 1x1010 molecules. Ah well
