I would bet (pun intended) that the majority of fantasy football leagues have cash prizes. But it’s like poker: a game of skill with an element of luck, and the better players come out on top in the long run.

Gambling is (mostly) a poison. I don’t condone sports gambling, I don’t go to casinos. I do like to play some poker and fantasy football, but there’s a large element of skill to those. It’s not as bad as playing slots or betting on the ponies IMO.

The final level of Mario Odyssey.

Crazy people have always existed (yeah sorry I know that’s a harsh and reductive description mental illness), and most times and places throughout history if you were spouting stuff people didn’t understand they’d most likely just chalk you up as a crazy person and ignore you, not put you on trial for being a witch. Unless you were threatening to upset the social order, then you might get in hot water, otherwise you were just another lunatic.

Actually they often move through the water by running along the bottom, fully submerged.

You’d also need to invent a power grid to make a lightbulb useful, otherwise it’s nothing more than a curiosity.

I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone about the fantastic book How to Invent Everything by Ryan North. It’s framed as a survival guide for stranded time travelers and goes into detail about many foundational technologies, how they build on each other, and how to make them yourself from scratch. It’s truly a fascinating read.

200 years ago was 1826 and firmly in the industrial/modern era, they were not executing anyone for witchcraft at that time.

If you’ve got a problem with lemon curd then you’ve got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate.

Completely serious - I often use WWJLPD to inform a decision I have to make.

A lie is based on intent. If you’re purposely intending to mislead someone, whether by omitting information or by outright stating false information, then it’s a lie.

Soil is really heavy when it’s wet. Your roof might not be able to support the amount it would take for a vegetable garden.

This sounds impractical since OP has to go out through a window then up a fire escape.

I can fix her.

It’s also convoluted by the notation of the multiplication. When it’s written like this, many assume that you need to resolve that term first since it involves parentheses.

It’s 9 if you actually understand PEMDAS

Brioche, because it’s almost cake. It’s great on its own, in savory or sweet applications, with just some butter, in a sandwich, as French toast, as a burger bun, I could go on.

Related and maybe unpopular: nobody should recline their seat. They should just take that feature out of planes entirely.

Damn girl, you shit with that thing?
