Concern troll is, as I understand it, more directly faking concern for a person. Things like "Are you okay? Do you need to talk to someone?"because you rebutted their argument, or “Suicide/self harm are never the answer” because you posted an opinion they disagree with. Sometimes it even rises to the point of reporting comments as self harm in a way that gets an automated or admin response.

With this administration you don’t need listening devices. If they didn’t already add you to the group text you can just slide a cheeseburger across the table and ask.

If the house you’ve been living in for ages goes up in value, that doesn’t turn into money you can spend.

To start, it’s a large scale demonstration of the Dunning-Kruger effect. They obviously understand very little about the law, if anything, but they think they understand one loophole and the sense of understanding breeds confidence. When you understand nothing, the feeling that you now understand something can be a powerful one.

Follow that up with a conspiracy-theorist’s mindset and it starts to make more sense. The SovCit thinks they understand this loophole, but that They don’t want to allow it. Who are They? Pick one. The Deep State, Corporate Elites, Rogue Judges, whoever it is that the SovCit feels has the power and will to ignore the rules just to personally thwart that SovCit’s stunningly clever application of the law. Now, their case isn’t failing because literally everything they thought they understood about the law is wrong, it’s because that Judge is willfully ignoring the law in an abuse of power specifically intended to put a stop to this. It’s not that the SovCit was wrong to think their signature on legal documents was meaningless because they wrote “Rights Reserved” beside it, the Deep State just doesn’t want people to know that’s how you avoid consequences!

Finally, wrap it all up with mythical “experts” and a self propagating network. One person trying all that shit alone might realize they don’t actually know what they’re doing, but they’ll select their contacts to surround themselves with people who will reassure them that if the first letter of the name on that legal document is capitalized it actually means a shadow-account created at birth and not the biological person. They’ll get support to help them overcome their doubts, fed by rumors of a friend of a friend who totally got it to work, or someone who got away with a warning on a traffic stop because they didn’t recognize the cop’s jurisdiction, or a friend’s cousin who has been using a fake “Private” license plate for months and has never been puled over. None of these experts materialize and provide solid, actionable information in a crisis, but the rumors and support are enough to keep any doubts at bay.

Just really wants to get his nose up diaper Don’s ass to make sure he’s orange daddy’s favorite.

That’s just it, these pricks who keep throwing a fit about who uses which bathroom are really much more interested in hating transgender people than they are about protecting anyone. You can point out stats about who is actually assaulting who and how it’s happening, and it won’t change a thing, because protection was never the point.

The cruelty is the point.

No morals, but maybe self preservation isn’t too much to expect.

Soup bowl.

The Sheridan was the size of the Sheridan, and they want the transportation capability of the Sheridan, but the Sheridan itself was also a wildly unsuccessful tank. It was also fully reliant on the MGM-51 Shillelagh missile, which also was not good. Nobody actually wants the Sheridan back, they want something they can transport like it.

I am aware yes. It was not a stupid question, but the answer was No. What strayed into Stupid territory was people trying to act like the simple physics of heating up water will at some point change enough to change the answer.

And it’s a stupid point. Just to power this one single endeavor we would have to increase the TOTAL NATIONAL POWER OUTPUT by more than 11 times. For this one thing. That’s not just a new invention, that’s not suddenly figuring out how to make Thorium-based nuclear reactors work, that’s not squeezing a few percent more in efficiency out of Solar or figuring out how to recycle wind turbines or investing in pumped hydroelectric storage. It would take a literally world changing development. More than an ORDER OF MAGNITUDE more output. For ONE project. If you can make that kind of leap in energy output then investing it all into this wildly inefficient and dubiously effective method of cleaning up waste water is the least of your concerns. That kind of energy output is the stuff of post-scarcity utopian dreams, and your plan is still to just use it all to pressurize and superheat water to get rid of SOME of the pollutants in it.

It’s a stupid idea.

Which doesn’t change the fact that it would require more than 11 times the total energy production of the entire country. If the solution to a problem requires some miracle technology that increases energy production by more than an order of magnitude, it’s not so much a solution as it is a fanciful dream. When step one is “Solve cold fusion” then it’s not a serious solution.

Heating water is a matter of physics, not technology. The amount of energy used to increase the temperature of water is literally how the units are defined. Do feel free to make a breakthrough on Fusion power though, I hear it’s still only 20 years away.

An idea that requires 11.5 times more energy production on a daily basis than the entire country’s output is a lot more than “Not perfect.” So maybe you pipe down before you go calling everyone who disagrees with you autistic, m’kay?

Their point, which you quite clearly missed, is that people don’t need a steady, reliable, high volume flow of steel delivered to every single home and business.

And maybe you should look into steam engines a little more and check out things like how hot that water actually gets. You’re gonna discover that for all the prodigious fuel use, the temperature is far below the goal of 500C and the flow rate far below requirements. But keep up the sass.

Seriously, everyone jumping to the worst possible interpretation, like they’ve never wanted to listen to music or had an audio book they didn’t want to put down.

You don’t get to take credit for everyone NOT dying in a nuclear war just because you DIDN’T trigger a nuclear war. ^/s

Both can be true! CAN be.

You already pointed out why he won’t do it.

If he had 3 brain cells to rub together,

They were protest voting because Harris wasn’t good enough, so now they hold their heads high that they didn’t vote for the person who wasn’t strong enough against genocide while the genocide accelerationist tries to speedrun the bad end.
