I would like to add that it’s kinda rare for an United-stasian cartoon to put the Brazilian flag in a “bunch of world flags” scene. Damn, they went that far into putting it in the middle of the screen! That’s unusual!
(Mark my words, we will take over the world soon enough /jk)
In the movie Winter Kills (1979) John Huston’s character, before plummeting from a skyscraper to his death, he says to Jeff Bridges’ character:
You get out of this alive, son-
You get out of this alive.
Take our money out of the western world and put it in South America.
Oh!
Brazil. Ah!
Aah!
Brazil! They’re the next ones up!
Also this movie is shockingly good, 10/10 recommend from me won’t spoil anything.
A coffee bean is a seed from the Coffea plant and the source for coffee. It is the pit inside the red or purple fruit. This fruit is often referred to as a coffee cherry, and like the cherry, it is a fruit with a pit.
This is a joke of course…well kinda. When science is done well it can change the world. Who would be against that?
I don’t like the phrase because while the process of science seeks to be as factual and unbiased as possible those in the scientific community are still human. They are fallible, corruptible and can do things for their own personal gain or profit. So to me it could mistakenly misunderstood as “trust science blindly”
But “Trust the science that is validated by multiple reputable sources” just doesn’t roll off the tongue as nicely
I agree, that phrase seems to be a little misleading with the “trust in God” crowd because to them, that is the ultimate answer, and no other answer would come close to being “right”. But “trust the science” is not meant to be the ultimate answer, just a sign pointing you in the right direction, so that you can then check the science to see if it’s reliable. So, the science that you’re trusting is not theirs, but yours.
Historically the US have been a safe flace for the jewish community fleeing inquisition, nazism etc. That means that there is a really big jewish community in the US, which makes.it recognizing palestine an unpopular politic choice.
Hi, jewish american here. I recognize Palistine, and I have a hard time understanding why “safe for jews” and “recognizing palistine” are mutually exclusive. Could you elaborate on that? Just so you know any answer involving Isreal I’m just going to call antisemetic since conflating jews and Isreal is antisemitic in the same way conflating China and chinese people is racist.
My father in law (prior to his passing) worked for the National Science Foundation and his job was to investigate grant fraud like this. Apparently it happens all the time.
