Yeah the crux of the issue here is whether or not they’re actually a relative, and if I’m expecting them.

Show up unexpected at 2am? I’m probably not opening the door for safety reasons. If it’s expected company but they’re just late, I’ll let them in.

I think they’re saying this:

Family meals would comprise of three restaurants worth of people since they’re all immortal

Separately, you can never retire since you will never hit retirement age

You know, that’s the first thing that caught my attention, and it’s actually kind of bothering me. I now want to pronounce it “ootopian” to make it work, but it’s just so wrong.

Not going to lie to you, this is exactly what i did :)

That is correct, it isn’t the default view, it’s the electrification view, which OP inferred they were using (the title says electrification map). If you open the link, the orange is worldwide general rail infrastructure.

If you click the top right options button (the 3 line “hamburger” icon at the far top right, separate from the map layers), you’ll see an option for electrification. This is the map they shared.

The grayscale option actually only grayscales the territory, not the infrastructure. I hope this helps clarify the situation.

I do agree that a legend would have been helpful.

I think the original poster posted this intentionally as sarcasm because there is so little color in the image. If you look at the original image and look at the USA North east near new york, you’ll see a few meager lines that are various colors (as well as a few slivers in south and central america, and what looks like a dot in los Angeles). This is showcasing just how little electrified rail exists in the americas.

It may not seem like it, but it is actually in color. I’m on mobile and am able to see it. If you’re not able to, it may be an issue with your app or method of viewing the post.

It’s from God emperor of dune, i think it’s the fourth book in the series by publication, but not chronologically.

I guess this might be a spoiler if they eventually make it a movie, but basically, the son of Paul merges himself with a sand worm and becomes effectively immortal. It’s both interesting and bizarre.

There’s a lot more to it than that but i don’t want to ruin the story for anyone

Oh man, haven’t seen Little donny disease in a long time. Hope he gets the help he needs to live a normal life

No one who speaks German could be an evil man!

That’s interesting, guess i wasn’t tracking that closely enough. Thank you!

Ah, wasn’t aware, thanks!

I thought it was India and South Africa, not Iran and Saudi Arabia

I don’t think standing all day like that is necessarily better, as it can cause other health complications. I did a light google search (i know, not the most extensive research) and the results suggest that standing for long periods can cause joint pain and put folks at a higher risk of problems with vericose veins. I understand that cashiers may do other things around the store, but some stand at the register for hours on end and that’s not much better than sitting.

But without the caption, how would i know to wait until the end of a 5 second video? Who has that kind of time?

I don’t think breakfast needs to be that immediate? The dish prepared here almost certainly took a minimum of 30, if not 45+ minutes to make, and there’s no indication it was immediately after waking. Breakfast can be a bit later.

I did a quick Google search, and I’m guessing miso is the ulcer treatment misoprostol that you shouldn’t take during pregnancy. A d and c is a dilation and cutterage, an invasive surgical procedure that removes something from the uterus. In this instance the something was a nonviable pregnancy that went awry from possibly the medication (or other factors).

Admittedly i was also confused about miso, and immediately thought soup? I was extremely incorrect

Yes

I hope you are able to outrun it one day. Or even perhaps out smart it. Idk, I’ve never been on a hunt. I assume those would be ways to survive.

Good point, i totally misunderstood the “picture this” lead in. Yeah it’s a completely feasible situation though it does seem extreme.
