This post had me thinking and reminded me of something I wanted to share in relation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_evolution

It is even possible in nature, for evolution to meet at the same place, despite isolation from eachother.

There are some things in the world that just "make sense" from evolutionary, or invention stand point. Coincidence CAN happen without it needing to be the work of some aliens, or conspiratorial nonsense.

Yes.... Not the point you're trying to make I guess.

SG isn't passing any laws. They are making a statement.

They went bankrupt funding progun policy.

Also, being a treasonous front for Russian political interference didn't help their cause

Canada says "High". we don't have a functional mental health solution and it's only gotten worse. And while we do have gun crime, it's nowhere near the same as our southern neighbour because of our gun restrictions and we don't Fetishize gun culture.

Mental health IS part of the problem. But the insane culture around owning firearms in the US directly leads to the prevalence of gun crime.

With summer in particular my office/gaming room can become unbearable hot

Grabbing my deck and laying on the couch outside has been amazing

"Battle of the Bulge" ironically sounds like a great name for a battle around Trans rights.

The amount of data that has come out in the year since it's launch has jumped mankinds knowledge of the cosmos forward by leaps and bounds.

addition to being regularly one of the top earners and expense users, he also already has his full pension and has been an MP for 19 years. During that time, we know at least that he has some investments with his wife in real estate.
