And for my next feat of mind-boggling prognostication, I will:
Good ol' JP here is so bad at the basics of science that he can't conceive of the differences in scale and applicable forces of a stock and the climate.
I can't predict where one water molecule will go if I toss a glass of water in his face, but I can predict that he'll get wet.

Just so we're all on the same page here, this is the nudity-containing image that the Mcminn County School Board objected to as pretext for removing Maus from the curriculum.
You probably can't tell, but that's the author's mother in the bathtub where she died of suicide.
I cropped it because the image of suicide is clear in context, and I didn't want to just drop that into your feed unannounced.
It's a gut-wrenching moment in the story, where Spiegelman includes his actual underground comic story about the tragedy and its impact on his life.
To think that it is a prurient image, even for an 8th grader reading the story, is the sign of a mind warped by a disgustingly misogynistic sexual morality.
In case any of you have a cat who has been experiencing colitis or IBS-like symptoms, you may way to try eliminating thickeners like xanthan gum, guar gum, and carrageenan from their diet.
Knute had developed the worst poos, but taking him off these ingredients fixed it FAST.
Knute's medical history is COMPLICATED to say the least, but he's had gastric issues for years, at least partly caused by the pile of meds he has to take for his heart. It got really bad in the last few months, and we really worried for him. Grain-free did nothing for him.
We tried eliminating specific proteins, but it didn't matter. He would come get me every time he had to poo because it was so unpleasant for him, and let me tell you, the aftermath wasn't pleasant for me either.
I'm gonna need everyone to quit using #AmericanTaliban and #TexasTaliban--not only are they xenophobic copouts that ignore the role of white American Evangelicalism behind the Texas law, but they also get the timeline mixed up. This form of US Christianity PREDATES the Taliban.
I know you think you're being cute, but trust me, white American Evangelicals have never needed to look abroad to get ideas about how to enact oppression here at home.
The Texas abortion law is rooted in whiteness, Christianity, and Americanism.
When you can only describe a purely American phenomenon in terms of the bad stuff that happens elsewhere, you're saying you think the bad stuff *belongs* in those other countries. You're saying you think it's always been sunshine and roses here, and injustices here are anomalies.
