The problem with bananas is that making the fruit the cheap and well adored food it is today came at the cost of several wars and unethical labor conditions.

$70 million dollars. I have someone I love deeply and who loves me, and that's enough for me. I have decisions I regret, and things have happened to me that were bad, but I am who I am today because of those things.

There is also hot anger and cold anger. Hot anger is when your passionate and your face turns red and you have to keep yourself under control or someone may get hurt. Cold anger is bitter and disconnecting. Hot anger may lead to a crime of passion but acts out of cold anger are calculated.

It has a buy now button! Thanks @SuperDave

I haven't been sitting here long, and there is an open toilet.

So, I read this outloud to my roommate just now. And then I said "Makes sense, that equation is stupid it's like 4/3 pi-is that what it is?" And its (4/3)(pi)(r^3). I took calculus in high school and I can tell you that I never use this equation, it just stuck with me for some reason.

All of this is true, but I don't think getting rid if gifted programs is the answer. I think adding curriculum on to help shore up these weak spots is a better answer.
Where I went to school there were advanced math courses available in high school if you did well enough in elementary school to get into them. However, rather than teach these students in advanced classrooms, they were simply shuffled into the regular classroom for older students. This meant the material was taught at a phase the average student could handle, and explained accordingly. Upon reaching our senior year, and being in our own class for the first time since middle school, these students began to learn calculus 1. Firstly, no one was prepared for calculus 1, as precalcus at our school was not really taught to adequately prepare students for calculus 1, and secondly, many students weren't prepared for classwork being hard.
And I, with my personal history having prepared me for stress and struggle, watched...

It won't happen. Disney is only remaking classics due to copyright law being the way it is. They don't actually value Treasure planet enough to make a remake.

A plague wouldn't do for us (developed countries) now what it did for Europe then. Not because we don't have overpopulation, we most certainly do have overpopulation. The biggest economic shift that followed the black plague was caused by a shortage of workers. If you don't have enough workers, you have to offer better wages to attract more people, and this means your competitors have to offer more wages or they won't have enough workers. While this leads to some inflation, not enough to outweigh the pay gain when resources are so plentiful relative to population size.
A plague now might allow more resources per person, but we are suffering from a lack of resources as much as a lack of distribution of resources. (At least in the United States). The only reason more companies haven't moved to robot labor is that it is not yet cheaper than paying wages. Some work still needs to be done by humans, but we have learned to do a great deal without human help. If it becomes to expensive...

Vegan orders and gluten free orders too.
The gluten free thing I know many people know already. Celiac disease is a real problem and any amount of gluten can be very problematic for people who have it.
As for vegan orders. Please remember that poultry allergies aren't uncommon. And allergy to other meats definitely do happen. And its often easier for someone who has meat allergies to ask for vegan than to ask for vegetarian as people are more likely to over look things like chicken broth if someone orders vegetarian food. Especially if they also have a lactose intolerance or egg allergy. I had a friend who was deathy allergic to meat (poultry, red meat, pork, basically all meat. She could eat fish) had a pretty serious egg allergy, and a lactose intolerance and she ordered vegan options because it was easier than trying to specify all her allergies.
