Oh thank fuck I was worried I broke or something

Pfizer isn't exactly in the good graces of the public either.
For profit healthcare is the problem. It's not the doctors, or nurses, or phlebotomists, or pharmacists that are trying to save lives. It's the people who handle the money fucking around with people's lives so they can make more.
Interesting, interesting, interesting, interesting.
I need the bootlickers to show up and tell me it's just coincidence.
The whole damn thing is a show. They are terrified. The book they usually play by isn't working. What will happen? The amount of support Luigi has is astounding. It's even a topic I tested the waters with at work and these people I work with make a decent living.
America is waking up. I feel it.
A grand jury is weird.
Selected at random like regular jurors, they are on duty for an extended period, they meet in secret and protected. They are only allowed to examine prosecutorial evidence, and only allowed to say if the collected evidence is enough to stand trial.
It's not a great system mostly because some of the stuff they have no choice but to agree to indict with, or they get held in contempt themselves.
Which, hopefully, he can use some of that for his attorney. That's the problem with our dystopia. The poor are far too powerless to take matters into their own hands. They don't have access to 3D printers, let alone ammunition and the academic rigour that wealth can provide to plot something like this. And I'm not talking the whole "getting away from it part. The hit was calculated.
That's why the elite are pressing so hard against this. If more of their own (but lesser) become sympathetic to the larger population, then they are truly fucked.
Revolutions need resources. We're in a society where the resources are so well controlled and industrialized that every little bit is tracked. It's up to the people with any power to do something to do it.
That's the message the elite doesnt want to spread. They don't want people that have basic human empathy to turn against their handlers.
It's a straight up cyberpunk dystopia. Corporations run the world, they provide all the means of being able to survive, and disagreement with it is a crime.
They don't even care about the people inside the corporations themselves, because they're replaceable. It's all functioning to generate wealth for the owners of society.
Fuck, the reason I both loved and hated Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is because it was too real at the beginning.
Why not just out law prosecuting white, rich, powerful, protestant, Anglo-Saxon men who are registered GOP?
Seems like an easy way to avoid this headache if they are going to do whatever the fuck they want anyway
There is also a theory that states that black holes, since they are singularities - are infact their own universe. It's also not entirely unrealistic to apply that to our universe being in a black hole itself.
We know the observable universe has an age. In fact, we know there's a limit to what we can see. We can locate galaxies 32 billion light-years away, but the redshift of its spectra confirms it is still about as old as the universe. Theoretically, just like an object falling in a black hole stretches forever, our expanding universe is the exact same phenomenon. There exist no spacetime paths that allow anything to escape our universe.
Yeah it's relatively new. James Web telescope has the potential to help a ton with physics.
Actually hearing that a country would go to that length makes a lot of this more understandable.
I mean, shit, the Asian Carp in America has destroyed so much natural habitat as a fish, and microbials can cause huge amounts of damage if they are invasive and much more difficult to figure out their source, and harder to stop once it spreads.
That's a whole different discussion, which is why I left the question there.
The answer is likely no. Galaxies, unlike a good chunk of stars, are almost as old as the universe itself. The youngest observed galaxy has actually been found to have stellar signatures that give it an age of 1 billion to 10 billion years, and I suspect James Web will find more, inevitably confirming it too formed at the same time as more other galaxies.
The supermassive black holes are quite likely primordial black holes - they came into existence shortly after the big bang (and there is debate on which big bang they formed with - yes, there is a working theory that there were two the conventional big bang, and a dark matter big bang).
The problem with black hole mergers being the source of them is that space is huge. When the Milky Way Collides with Andromeda, it's very possible that no stars, let alone the supermassive black holes, interact between galaxies. They will possibly change shape but due to the gravitational interaction of the two galaxies dark matter.
A lot of theories are waiting on data from James Web. The really interesting part, is that the further back in time we look - we still see galaxies that have formed. As I mentioned earlier with the two big bang theories is that there is now some thought that the universe isn't as finite as well believe, but it is cyclical. We are aware of the heat death of the universe, where the space between individual particles is too great to sustain an interaction. We have two possible ages of the universe, shortly apart from eachother.
Current research is looking at the relationship between particle chirality, the mystery between matter and anti-matter imbalance, the distribution of dark matter, and primordial black holes to see if it can be linked together. One of the more popular theories right now is that dark matter is likely a class of weakly interacting massive particles that we know a lot of characteristics of, but need something orders of magnitude stronger than the LHC to produce it.
Literally my parents. And teachers. I was "such a quiet kid" who did well in school. Never mind the fact that I would chatter to my parents and brother to the point where they'd actually get rather upset with me interrupting everything.
Turns out I excelled on tests solely because it was quiet. The doodling and daydreaming I did managed to keep just enough information flowing into my brain that when it came to tests, I just worked through them like puzzles.
I remember classes after I started taking Ritalin in highschool. Holy crap. I actually remembered learning. It was incredible. I didn't have to figure out things on my own. Tests were even easier because I had the answers beforehand.
