Geothermal: Incredibly old sky-spiciness from far, far away that Earth collected to slowly release.

  • Solar panels: Direct sky-spiciness to electricity conversion
  • Wind: Sky-spiciness made the air move
  • Hydroelectric: Sky-spiciness lifted the water up, gravity brings it down
  • Fossil fuels: Really old stored sky-spiciness from ancient plants

Thing is, unless we first found it way later, people would just think they're referencing the runes.

Could they have stolen the story? Yes. But they could have equally had a similar experience, it's not that implausible. I've known people that have nose bleeds like that, it's not some incredibly rare condition, and saying hail Satan is the kind of thing tons of edgy kids/teens would do.

Things can happen more than once.

It's also worth remembering the republicans having a different face next time doesn't mean they'll be different next time.

People act like things are only bad because of Trump and that if it was someone else it would be less bad. There's no actual reason to assume that.

Facebook doesn't need to spy, the users give it up willingly.

That's how it is in Australia. There's not literally a nil box, but voting is compulsory and once you turn up and have your name marked off you're good to go, you can vote or just submit a blank paper which is essentially the same thing.

I knew someone that had some as pets, they would literally put their hand into the tank and let them bite it to feed them.

I mean this in the most respectful way possible, but is there something you can name that religion does explain without relying on faith of some kind? I would never claim science has all the answers, but if I'm going to attempt to take religion seriously it has to start by giving at least a single answer.

Yes but how much heat are those hairs actually saving? In real terms I doubt it's a number that's meaningful at all. Like if you had 2 clones and one had their hair shaved and one didn't, I'm not convinced you could even measure the difference without super sensitive tools and even then it would be a fraction of a degree.

I also doubt there's any situation where, all else being equal, one would survive and one wouldn't purely on the basis of having those hairs.
