What she is saying is that the current state of particle physics has become directed entirely by falsifiability - namely, the entire field is being directed by groups of people making assertions that exist only to justify expensive, resource wasting experimentation.

What you have described is the neoliberalization of science, where "projects" are proposed for the primary purpose to gain funding. Winners of contracts are highly rewarded, yet pass on the work to contractors to fulfill - typically in the form of cheap foreign grad students - while they focus on bidding for the next contract bid.

Tastes just as delicious after 6 years in space.

Sounds like your wife's the high functioning one...

The problem now is we've adapted to a stagnant existence.

I think you misunderstand religion.

While it has been twisted to reflect prevailing power structure (e.g. head of State = head of religion?! ffs), religion is actually an anti-gas lighting strategy. The prevailing power spouts bullshit like it always has - the boss is morally superior, the rich deserve their wealth, etc. - all while fucking underage girls on private islands. And you - the powerless - can do nothing about it. Except you know that deep down these powerful people are frauds and liars. Religion is a community sense of the (forbidden) truth that what you see with your own eyes is correct and the gas-lighting bullshit is corrupt. It's a belief in reality not what plastic Ivanka tells you via her PR advisor (who we pay for).

> Congress' responsibility is to simply count the electoral votes certified by the states and announce the winner.

And also if the State sends more than 1 set of electoral vote, to decide which one counts,

Shhh the important point is that conservation is a laughable joke. Carry on building those shopping malls!

How fortunate that COVID-19 is the biggest source of income in a decade and Google has a loss-making service that needs a good drenching in taxpayer's money, When you think about it, everything is translation - isn't tho? I mean really?

> ...the system rejected a large number of scans...

LOL don't try that at home kids.

Patient: What was the result of my test?
Doctor: Computer says no.
Patient: No what?
Doctor: Error.
Patient: I want my money back.
Doctor: Please click yes to Accept.
Patient: No I don't accept.
Doctor: I'm sorry I did not understand that. Please click yes to Accept.

You're "smart" if you pay no taxes. You're a genius if you leave others holding the bag. Bankruptcy is a negotiating tactic. 1000% price hike once you get the monopoly. These are the rules we have on our law books.

They get Front Page hits with their nonsense. Run with that shit! Look at what the President does. Occupy that Front Page - use it to announce new enhancements, use it to promise Big Things, use it to occupy tomorrow's Front Page when your new shit doesn't work either. Who cares? Get that Front Page All Day Long.

Fuckin' noobs. Now you've quit and all going to hold your dicks in the corner for years trying to do something actually useful. N.O.O.B. bullshit right there.

> The Russian trolls are repeating the same arguments made by Americans.
> The divisive attitudes and extremism are already alive and well right here, trolls or no.
> Honestly I wonder why they bother, given that we are already doing their jobs for them.

What you are describing is what we here call "democracy". Having Russian trolls do it for us may have the unfortunate consequence that they might start to like and do it to themselves. Uh oh, who's the puppet now?

Paul, a deficit hawk, was among eight Senate Republicans who voted against a House-passed bill last week that provided more than $100bn to boost testing for the coronavirus and guarantee paid sick leave for millions of workers.

He also was the only Republican senator who opposed an earlier bill authorizing $8.3bn for initial response to the coronavirus.
