I do boil coffee. One of us might be a coffee preparation purist.

As a bean purist, I have to disagree. (My puristic view: a bean can only come from a legume.) It’s a one bean soup.

You don’t pay a plumber every single time you use his work 15 yrs after his death.

They kind of taste like butter to me. It’s a mild flavour, but nice.

There’s no reason to judge someone for taking many photos. If you’re not willing to help, you don’t have to. There’s no need to write sarcastic comments.

How about: Wait, let me illustrate how mansplaining works…

They shouldn’t though, they don’t look like good parents material.

I wish it was not a color at all. It should be a number.

Sorry for not writing for such a long time - my first try got erased before I sent it, but I’m back now to answer your question! It was the writing. I found so many of the dialogues to be really cringeworthy. To be fair, this was not the case for all the episodes. I felt ashamed to bare witness to some of the dialogue in The Sound of Thunder for example, while Light and Shadows was ok for me. I truly suffered through the Red Angel arch. There were so many things that just didn’t make any sense to me that I kind of stopped caring. And there was so much unending declamation with no real depth - all I saw were actors trying hard to say the flat lines as well as they could. I continued watching Discovery even after this season mainly because there were great characters again, that is Discovery’s strength in my eyes. And the later seasons seemed better to me. Have a nice day!

With red blood cells it’s not as simple either.

About the red blood cells - in my opinion, individual cells of multicellular organisms are alive per se, yes.

You’re right about the consensus, but I think times are changing and thinking differently about viruses is becoming a trend.

They don’t need it. They want it.

“viruses are not even alive” - viruses and other acellular entities that are part of what we call life on earth in general are finally starting to be recognized as such: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26305806/

FIFY: Get in, get out, wherever there’s trouble, a banana alone.

I’m kind of disappointed it’s not a pipe.

The cat is obviously licking the stomach. There’s no way a cat person would think the cat is sleeping.

There are plenty in Europe.

So, you mean something like, would I save my cat or Putin? The answer is - my cat. When it comes to strangers, I feel it’s more difficult and depends on many factors.

This question made me angry.

This is the correct answer.
