I think it's a variation of the "call of the void".
Your brain has an instinct to imagine the worst possible situation to keep you safe.
People lose stuff at subways all the time. Contact the staff and they'll fish it up.
Keys in drains can be retrieved with a magnet on a rope.
If you lose something in a drain indoors, you can probably open the water trap and take it. Heavy things don't just flush out easily.
monogamy is based on old property laws, on normarivity, and enforced by states/religions.
I'm not sure about that. If you ask anyone in a monogamous relationship, they wouldn't say that they're doing that because of the society, state or church.
I think it's something much more instinctual and possibly biologically conditioned. Pheromones are a hell of a powerful chemical. If you've ever had a crush on someone, you'll definitely have experienced how it makes you focus everything on that one person, regardless of what you want or what they want or what anyone else including your religion wants.
I think it's funny. They're also both wearing the "red power tie". Trump used to do so a lot too.
I like a red tie and I acknowledge the idea of how it can be used to signal power, but it has to be done in the right setting where everyone else is not wearing a red tie. It's only possible to pull off if you're the only one wearing a red tie.
Having two idiots next two each other with red ties only highlights the stupidity of both of them dressing up as a power move.
Also, we're kind of used to those prices, because most of it is tax. The changes in actual gas price (which are upsetting Americans now) are fractions of the usual price for us.
Of course we also complain about high prices, but it doesn't break our budgets.
There's also a theory that we're too late, and that our existence is like the remaining microbes in a puddle of water in a desert.
The universe used to be lukewarm with conditions for life to exist everywhere, until it expanded and started cooling.
On a positive note, this could also mean that life lies dormant everywhere just waiting for the right conditions, so that anywhere that has the right conditions also has life.
They're not losing billions. They're just selling less for more.
The price increase is working for them, because it's pretty
certain that oil consumption is already decreasing with more cars and industries turning to electricity in the future anyway and supply is going to decrease as well.
So this way, they already have customers accustomed to higher prices. Isn't that neat...
No can do. It's just too big. Nobody can do anything about anything because it's soo big. You can't phantom the size of USA before you get in a car and drive some hours across the state border only to realize that you're still in the same car.
On one hand I want to explore everything but at the same time I know it's impossible to grasp.
Our own Earth has fixing points from man made stuff, so I sort of know what's where, but then I zoom in on the archipelagos in south Chile or the lakes in Lapland and I get confused again because it seems soo randomly generated.
