this doesn't make sense to me, by this logic not using a straw is also "designed" to make you drink faster..

I see.

even wheat berries are significantly larger though, and corn kernels are like 5x as big as a grain of rice.

that doesn't change the fact that it's a fucked up phenomenon.
"haha yeah isn't it funny that people operating 3-ton machines going 80km/h do so in a fugue state, so quirky :)"

At first we made as direct as possible routes for walking and riding.
Then we invented trains and bikes but the trains had to take very squiggly routes because it was difficult to make direct routes for them.
After 1900 riding ceased being relevant for most people, and cars started becoming a thing but they were distrusted and had to obey strict speed limits and give way to everything else.
And these days the only thing that matters is cars, cars literally get things bulldozed so they can go in a straight line, while everything else gets to eat shit and die and trains were replaced en-masse with shitty buses.

Though it should be noted that bikes were invented quite a while after trains.

they're called communities on here

it's still valid, the car can't fly any more than a guy on a REALLY BIG pogo stick can.

shit like this makes me so patriotic, all swedes have a god-given right to 5km of technically functional and "safe" (not actively lethal) pedestrian infrastructure to reach the retail area on the other side of the motorway!
We should change our flag to a 20cm wide sidewalk that was obviously put in 30 years ago and never maintained.

Real talk though: this is why anything even vaguely rural is bleeding population like an open wound, the "big cities" are so hilariously much better in every single way.

i just want to note that the "genetic twist" was a fucked up neck/spine, not the magical ability to control her own brain. She would have to tilt her head in just the right way to trigger it.

return to dressing like rich medieval europeans

they're right in the most boring and depressing way possible, in that we could totally just give everyone the HPV vaccine but nooooooooo that would be expensive...

Cancer caused by HPV used to be, like, the main cause of death for women in the USA, IIRC. Now people barely realize it's a thing that can happen.
We cured (a) cancer and fucking forgot about it.

I think that kink is required to become a public official, same thing in my town.
They particularly love to remove random sections of asphalt, wait a couple weeks before they spray the warning paint so you see the massive fucking cliff that'll kill anyone in a wheelchair, then it spends months or years completely untouched until it's suddenly repaved again.

I'm convinced it's casual corruption to funnel money into construction companies.

it's basically just wanting to be cute, getting praise, and being submissive.

grow a second asshole, that thing can take some shit

symbiosis

at some point kink crosses the line into self harm
