I eat asparagus rarely but I can always smell it in my urine. I drink black coffee regularly and I've never smelled anything of note in my urine afterwards.

They don't have to be legitimate, just saying it is enough for some to comply regardless

Having seen the show should give you most of the context you need for the novellas, though some characters will be different.

No context might be difficult, but I think they catch you up on the broader concepts as they come up.

Fight, sure, but it wouldn't be like other recent wars.

In the calmest of times submarines have poor connectivity with the outside world, so there's no telling what they've been told.

Because we judge others by their actions and ourselves by our intent.

I think people are like this by default and it takes work to figure out your own blindspots and correct for them. Some people just never get there.

Maybe the Illuminati gave him the information!

The use of generational demonyms annoys me, too, because it's such a broad brush that has only become broader with time. In reality baby boomers should probably only refer to people born in the US in the immediate aftermath of WWII, but practically it includes people born well into the '60s.

A 20-year span is too long for meaningful grouping; a 40-year-old in the same "generation" as a 20-year-old is crazy.

There's no profit in it, is my cynical answer that I wouldn't be surprised to find is actually true.

"I've said before that the Iranian government has engaged in systematic repression of its own people, even killing thousands of Iranians who were seeking to express the most basic forms of dissent earlier this year. It is a brutal government."

Maybe you posted the wrong video, but he clearly didn't say that killing security officers and burning down mosques are basic forms of dissent.
