I’m not asking you to spend all day trying to clean the park but you should at least do your best to not make it worse

that is a useful mindset for those who fear a systemic solution.

the people who would have to organise instead spend their effort on other things, like cleaning up dog shit; Or arguing how much shit you need to clean up, before you are morally allowed to advokate for a systemic solution.

the more the anti-dogshitters are splintered, the easier it is for the pro-dogshitters to keep the status quo

why not have a single global timezone and people change their local numbers.

e.g. if you life in hawaii you stand up at 11pm and if people in russia work until 8am.

Heinlein himself was libertarian

didn't he change his views a couple times during his life?

so why not copy them?

oh, I totally agree with you.

In fact standards are made to be copied. That's like the entire point of them.

Accusing a man of being “ergi,” which is basically unmanly, was enough of an insult to be answered with blood

"using gay as an insult" is not proof of extreme homophobia. By that logic every teenager on the planet would be extreme homophobic.

In fact, pretty much every descriptive word can be used as an insult. If anything your example proofs, that vikings take insults very serious.

because of two bodies can not occupy the same space, the feather and the ball will be in different position when you drop them. And therefor gravitation will pull the earth slightly more toward the ball and slightly less toward the feather.
