Higher pressure decreases the relative volume of the gas, increasing its density and reducing its buoyancy. What you need is extra voluminous farts in an otherwise nearly empty, low pressure digestive tract.

The molar mass of elemental nitrogen is 14, not 7. However, its equilibrium state in our atmosphere is as N2 which has a molar mass of 28.

I want it entered into the public record.

Just a funny moment your comment reminded me of:

My wife saw a post last night about the studio keeping the casting of the new Voldemort hush-hush, where folks were speculating about it like crazy. All sorts of names were thrown out there; some more earnest than others. My wife said it would be perfect if they had cast Radcliffe, but I rebutted that it’d be even better if they cast Elijah Wood.

Anyway, It’s too bad it’s just going to fund the authors war on trans folks. Otherwise I probably would enjoy it.

YouTube is where I watch the late show…

This has been said all along. And I’d wager a lot of investors agree. But the stock market is essentially gambling and you can’t argue with market trends. Even the critics on Wall street will ride the wave until it comes crashing down in the hope that they can cash out quick enough or they hope to catch the coattails of what few firms make it out the other side.

Shhhhhh! You’ll jinx it!

Edit-preface: I am not a grammarian. I don’t know what the technical names for the different types of “to” are or if they are even recognized as distinct by experts in the field.

English is does indeed use “go” to mean “go do a thing”, but not with directional “to” (as in “go to the library”).

“Go run!”, “Go running”, “I’m going running”, and “I’m going to run” are all valid uses. (In that last case, the “to” is not a directional “to”, but is actually part of the infinitive verb “to run”, as in “I want to run”). However, you wouldn’t say “Go to run!” to tell someone to run.

"Go to run" could make sense with a causal “to” (“Go, in order that you might run”) but that separates “go” and “run” in to separate actions. Causal “to” is the “to” in “push to open” and “press F to pay respects” this is not the “to” in “go to sleep”

“Go to sleep” feels like it is in the directional sense, like "go to bed"

Edit: Now you’ve got me thinking. “Go to sleep” and “go to bed” are a little unusual . “Go to [location]“ without an article is usually reserved for proper nouns or pronouns (“Go to France”, “go to Curicó”, “go to Walmart”, “go to John“ “go to her”). When the location is a general noun, you usually use an article or a proper/pro-noun in the possessive form (“go to a restaurant”, “go to the party”, “go to Bob’s house”, “go to your room”). So what makes “bed” and “sleep” so special? The only other case I can think of at the moment is “go to ground” and that is different because it is an idiom, and the rule for idioms is “they mean what they mean”

Edit-edit: meals don’t use an article either: “to lunch”, “to dinner”, “to breakfast”.

Edit-edit-edit: AAAAAH! It applies to some other prepositions too: “in bed”, “at lunch”; but not “under the bed”. What is going on‽

Edit-edit-edit-edit: Causal “to” might be a use of the infinitive case?

Edit-edit-edit-edit-edit: “go to work” does not use an article either.

Big bash > small bash

Whoops! Slip of the thumb. Thanks for catching that. I was thinking “administrators of the Executive branch” and it morphed before I got it out.

Now and in his last term. It’s coming to a head now because of all the judicial appointments that McConnell held open in the Obama years.
