I am a professor. I'm fine with choosing to consume shorter media - I read very few novels any more either. I think the point that the students appear unable to read long form. It actually matches up with my own experience where incoming students have never had to write long form either.

I'm curious what the downvote was for.

I drive a 2010 Acura MDX. When I bought it, it was one the largest SUVs in the market. When I bought it people thought it was ridiculous. Jump to today. It's midsize. I can't even find it parking lots as it's dwarfed by every truck and SUV around. Including what used to be economy and entry level vehicles. I have crossbars on it for my kayak to boot.

A plebe such as yourself simply cannot understand the patrician level of pleasure that comes from establishing a singular identity in this world of dross.

There are several rare intersex conditions - mosaicised individuals or a lateralized hormone insensitivity so the Wolfian system develops on one side and the Mullarian on the other. But these are extremly rare. There are genetic intersex conditions - Klinefelter's is the one I can remember - that present male.

133 communities and just 45 users. An old alt of mine is among them for a reason I can't recall. Login trouble or something?

Edited for fat fingers.

Thanks! I assumed it was rhetorical question but this waaaaay outside my area of expertise.

Is decay the only way to get lead? I mean if uranium gets synthesized can't lead get made as well?

I'd be interested in this too. I'm a bit away from the next vehicle but I was already considering going vintage for physical controls, an honest to god non-electronic mirror, and no surveillance.

Desert wasn't really a cyberpunk setting until BR 2049. Post-apocolyptic sure, MadMax had that stitched up in 1979, but not cyberpunk.
