Reply to comment by SRL5 in "Even a $7,000 Rent Doesn’t Guarantee Dogs Get to Walk Through the Lobby" In some New York City buildings, the four-legged pets are not welcome everywhere. Their owners must carry them or use a service elevator. by CactusBoyScout
I lived in one. My bf at the time was told (once, and we made sure it was the last time) by another resident that “the service elevators are in the back”….we suspect the color of his skin was what prompted it because I was there too and he was dressed to the nines, coming back from work, while I was back from a run looking like people do when they come back from runs…

Reply to comment by Viv3210 in Eli5: when will oceans actually start rising? by Just_a_happy_artist
We do see it. Pretty much every coastal community is affected; some are more low lying so it’s more noticeable, some coastlines are simply higher and effects such as loss of land are not noticeable.

Reply to comment by ILikeLenexa in TIL that Haiti and Lichtenstein showed up to the 1936 Olympics with the exact same flag, which they had both been using for decades without knowledge of the similarity by Rickerpool
Since they used to have the same king and the same flag intentionally, it makes sense, but today the flags are clearly different.

Reply to Eli5: how does stomach acid not exit with feces when we have diarrhoea? Isn't it just a sphincter which should in theory not be infallible? by Thtanilaw1113
Stomach acid is neutralized in the food once it passes in the largely alkaline environment of your duodenum. Passing further in your intestine, the whole mixture is largely pH neutral, and as your cells and your intestinal flora work to extract nutrients and water out of it, it slowly compacts the residue into finally in your colon turns into feces. Whether sphincter is infallible or not has no bearing to your question, the only thing in your colon is your feces.

Reply to ELI5: How is donating equipment to participate in war, not considered going to war? by lloyd705
The same way Russia is not in a war. They proclaimed it a security action and actually punish people who call it “war”. So you can use whatever terminology you want, it’s not like there’s language police (unless you’re in Russia) to stop you from doing that. Formally, the US has not declared a war since 1942.

Reply to Earth's inner core may be slowing down, but “Nothing cataclysmic is happening,” says Hrvoje Tkalcic, a geophysicist at Australian National University. “The inner core is now more in sync with the rest of the planet than a decade ago when it was spinning a bit faster.” by clayt6
Sounds exactly like something the lizard people would say. /s obligatory

Reply to comment by Pfeffer_Prinz in TIL the first known résumé was written by Leonardo da Vinci, when applying to be a military engineer for the Duke of Milan. It's mainly just a list of his designs for siege weapons (including trebuchets). He briefly mentions his art: "In painting, I can do everything possible." He got the job. by Pfeffer_Prinz
I love the humility in the end :)

I mean…it’s not like that would disqualifying him from sitting on the House committees. Child porn and trafficking isn’t enough to get people kicked out of the congress if you are GOP.

Reply to ELI5: By using Medical Science, we are practically denying natural selection. How can it affect us in the future? by No_Victory_1611
Humans left natural selection somewhere like 1.5 million years ago when they started cooking food and feeding the weak and sick family members. Not to mention things like agriculture….
