After 6 hours of being with other teenagers my age, the last thing I wanted was forced social interaction just as I was getting ready to unwind. For the first half of high school, I was at the train station reading a book. The second half, I had the good sense to start using a phone.

Humanity has never built anything that has intentionally lasted 10,000 years
You don't know what those cave people were thinking when they drew those pictures.
These pods are only used on rails with very low ridership. They would switch to a train if ridership increased.
Look at it this way: you can have a train that has a capacity of 100 people, but it only runs once a day due to the low demand, and only 2 people want to ride it at that time of day..Or you can have 10 pods, which do not require as much railway maintenance, and they can carry the 10 people who actually want to use this railway, completely on demand.
Yeah, a train is better if you want to move ten thousand people a day at peak hour. But this is a cheaper way to move ten people at different times across a day. And it's a cheaper way of inducing the demand that would justify the more efficient kind of expansion.
It's a newer episode.
A dive, a sex dungeon, and a junkyard are important stops on the way to a wedding. Two men both want to make their baby wet.
The flying nun!
I don't think there's anything cowardly about refusing to support Netanyahu's antisemitic government, except that she wasn't a bit firmer about it.
I think refusing to support an antisemitic government like Israel is brave.
If I were in Olga's position I'd go create another Natasha account on the same platform and start making videos saying "Hey, Natasha here. I just learned what things are really like in Ukraine and I'm furious about what Russia is doing to innocent civilians. Putin is an evil man. Also my main account has been hacked, please report it so I can get it back."
If Natasha is Olga then Olga is Natasha. Olga probably has a case to take over the accounts, given they're videos of her, and start pushing out antiwar propaganda.
Maybe I like mischief too much
I'll leave your steaks alone if you leave the cows alone. I'm sure we can all get along without any sort of violence, harsh words, or forcing our preferences onto others.
Actually, cats really are alive and dead at the same time according to the many worlds interpretation. Under classical quantum mechanics, we say that superpositions collapse when observed, and since the cat is an observer of the quantum event (since the cat would die if the atom decayed), then the cat's presence resolves the superposition. Thus, the cat is never in superposition.
However, according to the many worlds interpretation, observation does not collapse superposition. Rather, it simply expands the superposition to include the observer. So the cat, as an observer of the quantum event, really is both alive and dead. And at the moment that you open the box to see whether the cat died, you will also observe the quantum event and become part of the superposition as well. You will both see a dead cat, and see a living cat. But your consciousness only experiences one of these possibilities. Presumably, you have another consciousness in the other possibility observing the cat in the other state. Two separate timelines have been created, which will each progress on their own according to causality. We may also call these timelines worlds or universes, seeing as they're mostly self contained.
To be fair the blonde bombshell in a catsuit was initially nonbinary.
And then Janeway immediately gave it conversion therapy and told it to be a woman.
