John Lennox made a good point about this: if you ask why is the kettle boiling there's two questions in it. One is answerable by explaining the excitation of atoms caused by the transfer of heat from one medium to another and the properties of water. The other answer is "Because its time for a cup of tea."

Science can give you the first answer but has nothing to say about the second. NOTHING. TO. SAY.

Also, how people can really surprise you. Just in the past year I've seen or heard about people I thought were good people do grimey shit that completely changed how I think about them. On the other hand, my one ex who I never would've described as brave in a million years almost died recently running back into a really bad fire to save her parents' dog (which was already dead). She's stupid, but she's a hero.
With all due respect, what a stupid bitch. If it was a kid not a dog then absolutely. Way to almost give them a dead daughter too, stupid.

If anything it makes us more stupid because we assume access to knowledge is the same as being intelligent. If you pour a gallon of water into a teacup you just make a mess.
I give the majority of people too much credit - personally I love being able to research anything I can think of with my phone / computer but other people are much different and would rather endlessly scroll all day and they don’t even know why they’re doing it.

water pressure increasing at higher depths. it doesn’t seem like it should have any effect on the human body. it doesn’t make sense why someone can go down thousands of feet on land and be fine but for some reason water has to exert some weird black magic force. don’t bother trying to explain if, i’m pissed enough as it is

Seeing people hang their heads down over an android/iphone while in the company of each other
"Gay Pride" seems dated with all the tranny tawk. The incrementalism is soo obvious
How empty my gym is most times, even in once peak hours
How so many places dont accept $100 bills
How so many Vape shops opened up in my neighborhood...used to be a new Starbucks in every corner, now its vape stores.
How childish/but also slick, people under 30 seem

It’s wild to me that i can just go online and have something i want delivered to my home in, at most, 2 days. And sometimes i bitch if something doesn’t have a same day option! Go back in time and tell that shit to my great grandpa and i get burned alive immediately
They revealed their hand too much with letting us see where the package is in real time so when it sits at one spot for 3 days doing fuck all you have a right to be angry. WHAT are they doing with it?

I honestly don't know a lot about Neil Degrasse Tyson because I don't like him at all and I can't stand listening to him speak. Has he ever actually done anything important with his heckin huge science-nigger brain? Like has he made any important discoveries or breakthroughs? Because all I ever hear about from him is him "debunking" obviously over the top, 25 year old Hollywood action movie moments. He's just "AAAACKSHUALLYYYY" in human form.
No, he mostly acts smug and plays with model rockets when he's not busy raping women.
