It doesn't pay taxes.

It's kind of a thing in certain animals, but not wolves like originally claimed. The certain animals here being mostly primates, so it's even more applicable.

That said, the politics of social primates are notoriously complex and many cultures have unique behaviors within the species, so there aren't really any universal rules particularly among the most social groups.

There's a reason the guy in the meme is dressed like a clown.

That can change depending on your file manager, and many OSs do not present the file manager app anywhere but the app list by default, if they even have one.

Even knowing about the sentence structure "Do x by today", this post is phrased weirdly.

The top text uses the pattern "effect by amount", which leads people to see today as an amount in the bottom text. The bottom text is also a different kind of sentence entirely; "Shortening the lives of the rich by today" is a sentence fragment and needs to be modified, perhaps like "Me when I'm shortening the lives of the rich" to fit the format, or "Shorten the lives of the rich today" to fit the conclusion of the top text.

In any case, the format of the meme, the top text, and the bottom text do not rhyme, which makes them difficult to understand in relation to each other.

Burning plastic has similar issues to fossil fuels, with all the waste ending up in our lungs.

Nuclear waste can be rendered inert in glassified casks, while having a much higher power density and reliability.

Nah, 42,000$ is more natural and consistent with other units.

I think the active component in a Microwave Oven is called the Magnetron, not the element. Both are usually turned on and off for partial power though.

After looking up Worm Gobys, I can confidently say they do have eyes (small ones). This is a picture of the underside, and the eyes sit on top.
