ELI5 for the 1.2M number:

Hitting 1 million signatures is the final goal but that’s counted after the signatures are verified for legitimacy. With a petition like this, 20 to 30% of the signatures are stricken from the final count. So having a large buffer above the 1 million number is essential.

No but I would like people to be arrested for causing insurrections. Arresting people on political affiliation would be tyranny. We should only arrest people based on the crimes that they commit

I self censor at work because people can be pretty petty and there’s just so many ways to get screwed by a random acquaintance.

Out and about with anyone else though I’m ok because i understand most issues well enough to not make myself look silly.

On Israel Palestine though there is no right answer.

Hey! Who turned out the lights?

Honestly this is the answer. You can look and also be respectful to the person at the same time. That is what both feminists and others want. Just not the bigots, they don’t know what respect is.

I don’t know this as fact but my guess would be they’re over last year’s budget.

They’ve been taking money from other parts of DHS to continue working. When the money runs out, that means the entire DHS budget runs out and they won’t be able to as easily appropriate more since it would have to come from another department

It’s a modern language with a country that speaks it as a primary language, but it’s not as widely learned so I don’t want to doxx myself. Duolingo is the only one that has more than a beginner’s level in this language. Beyond that I have to actually talk to people, like with italki. That’s going to be hard because I don’t even like talking on the language learning discord lol. I need to know it for my future plans, but that isn’t overcoming my introverted desire to not talk to people.

Well now that we know that he’s an idiot, I have to look back at the things that I just took for granted. I didn’t talk to any rocket scientists 10 years ago so I just believed him when he owned a company that was showing results. Hindsight is 20/20

I thought his threat was going to be that the universe either gets itself under control or he does it again?

Hindsight is 20/20. At the time i was willing to forgive a lot to get to Mars.

There’s no way it’ll have the language I’m learning any time soon lol. Duolingo is literally it besides traveling there and talking to locals

Bet they didn’t tell Trump about this one either lmao

Half plus 7 rule

51/2+7=32.5

Op is only slightly creepy

OP made Crimea green. There’s definitely an agenda here And they gave away their country of origin with that little switch.

Wait I think I can read between the lines here

You actually want me to say the correct answer so that you can drink!

I got you bro, that’s C-3PO.

Get your freak on now blame free, it’s totally my fault

Cut first, choose last. It’s as fair as you can get when eyeballing it

Start with one part. Work your way to two eventually.

I like my belly button, it’s satisfyingly deep.

It screams Boomer to me.

Man wants to be in all caps, let him be in all caps. You do you and then appreciate that other people are different and still good people.

Yeah prob, I was trying to highlight more absurdity but once you reach 100% It doesn’t really go any higher
