        under copyright law, you are required to credit it. this is due to the creative commons license at the bottom of the page. compare this to normal copyright law, where you are sent to jail if you even think about it

    Gotta vote so the idiots don’t gain ground. They strip funding for public education, they’ll destroy NASA, they’ll destroy NOAA, they’ll destroy the FDA, USDA, they won’t stop until it’s all private corporations running things.

      Maybe if there were a story in a book about people not listening to NOAA and they were destroyed in a massive flood. Maybe, just maybe, that would help them understand.

        That sounds like a bad idea. People tend to hyper focus on certain details in fictional stories while ignoring other elements that tie the story together. It leads to an interpretation that differs greatly from the author’s true message.

    The universe still doesn’t care what a US Senator thinks. This is mostly because the universe is a collection of everything ever and it doesn’t have a unified cohesive sentience, so maybe it’s we who should not care what the universe thinks.

      According to all known laws,
      there is no way a person can be gay.

      It’s a sin according to the bible
      and everybody in this world is a believer.

      A person is gay anyway,
      because the person doesn’t care what a US senator thinks.
