The premise of ‘end times’ of that question couldnt really have been that the rapture is imminent, seeing as 9% of atheists believe we’re in the end times in your graph.
Klar einscheissung ist eher selten, aber dass man zwei unterhosen innerhalb einer woche anblutet kann schon passieren.

This misconception is why I and many others prefer the precise wording: gaining healthy(ish) years.

You don’t die of ‘old age’. You die of disease(s), which become more and more likely as you accrue damage throughout your life. You can’t really extend the period someone stays alive with end stage dementia or cancer. If anything, you can only prevent, halt, or slow the development of the diseases. And that’s what’s meant by longevity/extending life.

Granted, you’ll still accumulate non fatal issues. But I’d argue you can lead a meaningful life with knee pain and far sightedness.

I can’t get over the fact that it’s a word people use for farts, particularly when talking to children.
It’s ok that microblogging isn’t for you. It isn’t for me either. Doesn’t mean that it’s not valid or even important that it exists for other people.
e.g. my country has a population of just like 8 million, and while it’s neutral and has no military involvement in any war, is one of the world’s biggest arms manufacturers and was the only European country that delivered arms to Russia throughout the Crimean crisis. Way up until 2021.
That is textbook genocide justification. Also not even true. At all. There’s countries that have a higher population and fewer warmongering tendencies vs other countries.
Can’t believe I have to say this, but people don’t somehow deserve to die due to where they’re from. And with the amount of genocide apologia in the current global political climate, it’s not even funny as a joke.

My high school IT teacher said this outright. He was a FOSS guy, but he said employers will expect MS Office, so we’re going to be learning that.

Funnily enough proprietary software is frowned upon in my professional domain. Im not mad though, the excel commands and whatnot still work in libre office spreadsheets.

Unrelatedly, doing statistics in a spreadsheet program sounds like absolute hell.

To confirm, I had all of these with extreme hyperthyroidism (the rash being from the medication)
