@DivinelyDesined Cutting edge religious philosophy here. Something is improbable, therefore it's impossible, therefore it happened by magic

People are asking for the math that makes evolutionary theory impossible.
Let's give the people what they want!
Here is why the evolutionary origins of all the molecular machines in your cells is mathematically impossible👇
Divinely Designed@DivinelyDesined
There is not enough time in all the universe for evolution to build even one of these molecular machines, let alone thousands. Mathematically impossible. Evolutionary theory is dead.

@WKCosmo Locked behind paywall but already seems like a rage-bait dumb article that doesn't actual grapple with any of the many real problems at universities

THIS IS BECAUSE UNIVERSITIES QUIT HIRING TENURE-TRACK FACULTY
Daniel Steinmetz-Jenkins@daniel_dsj2110
Wow: "Welcome to gerontocracy in the academy. Graying profs are an extreme instance of a national syndrome...Between 2000 and 2010, the # of faculty over the age of 65 doubled...The arts-and-sciences faculty at Harvard had more tenured faculty over 60 than under 50.": chronicle.com/article/profes…

No cancer for me.
I had a CT scan today four my four-year follow-up and it was all clear. In 2022, I underwent a brutal course of chemo for a Stage II seminoma. I never could have imagined feeling quite that horrendous as I did after the last cycle. It took me a year to recover, but I ultimately did. Although I have neuropathy (my feet burn) and I have trouble remembering names and stuff.
I have just one more scan in a year and then this particular cancer show will take its final curtain, provided I have no recurrence. But the chance is like 1%.
The summer I was in chemo happened to coincide with my monekypox typo, which was when I crossed the 10K Twitter follower rubicon. Back then that meant something. A lot of people were really kind to me on here at the time, like Mia Farrow. And some people were shitty! Yes, I carry a grudge. Some people have no limits to how awful they can be.

@EricsElectrons MJ was one of very few modern people I consider a true musical genius. It's rare even among musicians
English
Michael Jackson’s Off The Wall was released only 1 month after the Disco Demolition riot of 1979 when disco was becoming unpopular.
Unlike most artists on the pop charts, Michael chose to blend many unpopular genres together.
If that’s not a bold move, I dont know what is.
my chemical romance makes me dance@groovybmovie
I’m going to get so much flack for this but when his creative process was meticulously tracking pop charts and studying what was selling, it shows his music was always more of a product than an art…

@orbalology I had no idea when everything started going digital that physical media would become so valuable again, but here we are

Funny how just the other day people were giving me crap for not wanting to buy digital games on console… when I’d rather buy them on PC anyway.

@HistoryBoomer and I know what you might say to that. You can't drive a button. And you would be correct. Good point.
English
@HistoryBoomer A lone crazy likely driven to moral panic and hysteria by being too immersed in MSM's distorted view of the world and their subtle manipulation of narratives. So many leftists have just gone off the rails since 2020, and journalists are driving the panic button.

@IonaItalia I want to hear them express real sympathy for victims of Oct 7. Until then I think people saying Free Palestine are not only stupid but also horrid human beings.

Seriously, I'm done with this nonsense. My patience is at an end. Everyone who thinks like this should just get a life.

@timgill924 I showed my kids where my dissertation is on the book shelf. I said see this? I expect each of you to add one of your own or that's it you're out.
English
Listen. I have a PhD. If my son and daughter don’t each get, at least, one, I’ll be pretty pissed off. They have a leg up in this world. If they choose to screw around and not get good grades, I’ll cut them off. They can live with grandma or whoever will tolerate that behavior.
The Missing Data Depot@data_depot
It's not surprising that professors come from highly educated families. Yet the extent to which the professoriate comes from families w/ a PhD-holding mother or father is striking. While <1% of Americans have a PhD, 22% of university faculty members have a parent with a Ph.D.

@allthatferguson I guess it takes 4 years of med school to understand why confused little kids should be sterilized and have healthy body parts chopped off

Every major medical association supports gender-affirming care. But sure, a Substack essay probably knows better than doctors.
Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans@pittparents

@terrynewman I saw plenty of fb friend leftists celebrate or at least say good riddance when he was killed. I'd never heard of him, started watching his videos, and became a big fan (and I'm a classic liberal atheist). Leftists can be so filled with virtue it makes them ugly people

The way people have been talking about Erika Kirk has been gross fir a while now. What is wrong wuth everyone doing this? Are they all 12 year-old boys?

@Rob_ThaBuilder I just couldn't risk my kids in this scenario. Knowing every other parent would feel the same, we'd all pick red and be ok
English
The ppl signaling their virtue by insisting the correct answer is blue, and only evil ppl would pick red dont really understand the question. It isnt a question about your OWN morality, but instead is a question of your perception of everyone else's morality.
And it isnt even a measure of their "morality" but is actually a measure of their survival instincts. Betting against the survival instincts of 50% of the human species is a bad choice.
Anyone who is facing this choice for real and had to think about it for more than 5 minutes would pick red, and more importantly, would council everyone they care about to pick red.
Would you want your children to risk their life on 50% of the human species to bet against their own guaranteed survival? No decent parent would.
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy
Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

@skdh @erosbrousson This mindset, where debt makes one valuable, dates all the way back to Alexander Hamilton.

@erosbrousson I had exactly the same problem 20 years ago!

@Anthony_Bonato Engineers just state bluntly why something is wrong and what to do about it. Seems like a better approach

@AndrewZywiecMD @NormalGayPsych I have no idea what causes people to be pedophiles, but that's a change in topic and unrelated to homosexuality
English
@msdavi01 @NormalGayPsych That's not evidence of being born gay... at all.
Are people born pedophiles?
English
There are gay people who live regular lives, are individuals, and just happen to have been born gay. Then there are people who make being "queer" their entire persona. These are NOT the same thing.
English
@AndrewZywiecMD @NormalGayPsych That gay people exist across all cultures over the world is evidence that they are born gay. What's your alternative explanation (that isn't some religious made up nonsense)
English
@NormalGayPsych No one is "born gay." This is a fallacy. Happy to discuss.
