Is it possible you don’t read people well and don’t communicate as well as you think? It could be the doctor(s) you were chatting up thought it was a bit too much. I’m only suspicious of this because you’ve been posting about having problems interacting with people at your workplace (new and old wards) for a long time now.
You have the correct answer, echoed by others. If one could draw a sharp line, then we would see proto-chickens laying eggs containing chickens and then some of those chickens laying eggs containing proto-chickens, back and forth for many generations. The combination of alleles that qualifies an organism as a chicken would arise and then often be reversed by recombination in the next generation. Eventually as more and more of the population has chicken allele combinations, the percentage of chickens born would grow as the reversals became less numerous than the forward conversions.
Now, what defines whether an egg is a proto-chicken egg or a chicken egg? An egg is formed by the action of maternal genes, so it will have the characteristics given to it by the proto-chicken mother. But if you just define an egg that hatches a chicken as a chicken egg (rather than an egg laid by a chicken), the egg always comes first.
This post feels like gaslighting.
The roving gangs in the original Mad Max movies were anarchist combat collectives. They’d probably work like that.

I had to check. We’re both right / wrong. Difference is about 1.5 sizes.
Minus 2 in US
How often in US democracy does the person with the most votes lose? Even just on the national level, there are several hundreds of people elected every other year.
If you mean the Presidential election, it has only happened 5 times in 200 years.
Referendums are called propositions in the US and are voted on at the state level. Special interests pay tens or hundreds of millions of dollars for deceptive TV ads for or against propositions. The messages tend to be very dumbed down because the average person is too stupid to vote for anything beyond a simple slogan.
Direct democracy leads to a lot of idiot things getting done. Representative democracy was better for a while, but you still get Nazis coming to power from time to time.
Churchill had it about right:
Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…’
I may be a Luddite, but I never use the Auto setting for the cars ventilation system. I also don’t want A/C on with heating. If it’s cool outside, I’d rather run the fan harder with no A/C.
At the risk of being impolite, it reeks of cuckoo.
Your dog will enjoy his special day but then be disappointed it didn’t happen again the next day. Then he’ll get used to normal days until the following year.
You’re not going to get dinner and a movie out of a bear.
You must have a lot of bears in your old neighborhood.
This post gives me a good idea for a new name for a group of clams.
Thank goodness Germany has resolved racism. I’m glad the AfD has thoroughly reformed itself. No wonder they’re getting more votes these days.
Besides asking if it is real, shouldn’t we be asking if “meat grinder” carries the same connotation in the Russian language?
Alright, party pooper.
I don’t really know what this thing is about. I am guessing from context it relates to Zelenskyy not wearing a suit, which he started when Russia invaded. That became news again recently because some shitheel sycophant in the Whitehouse thought he could lecture the Ukrainian President about how disrespectful that was.
This whole post is incredibly opaque. It also references James Joyce. Joyce was a writer famous for being difficult to understand, and Ulysses is one of his novels.
James Joyce apparently wrote the post title and description underneath. If you can figure out Ulysses, this post should be decipherable.
We can’t really know what happened from anyone’s perspective but the OP.
