Reminder to people with skills in STEM, but particularly SE, CS and DS, all this stuff happens online and in databases. When Trump and Musk try to deny the free flow of information, or find undocumented immigrants, or set up snitch hotlines, or whatever garbage they order next, you have skills to protest directly against these. Overflow their hotlines, save and distribute as much at-risk material as possible, disable Teslas.

We too often think of protest as a realm of the humanities, and ignore the real power we have to make their efforts more difficult. These are interesting and consequential applications of technology, and I urge you make use of your skills here.

@evilwizard

You have to put some humor and silliness into your setting like yes an evil wizard whose name is evil wizard is trying to revive mothman, of course she is. Of course you can use sourdough starter as a weapon and feed it apples and yes clown is a species you can play as

assuming the average avocado is about 7 ounces, Melly should weigh ~1.39 kg. This seems a little low, so i’m inclined to assume a larger (12oz) avocado, in which case Melly should be ~2.4kg. If she’s heavier than that, I’m afraid your friend has vastly overestimated the weight of an average avocado, an easy mistake to make for the uninitiated.

For real though, I think at least part of the reason that people like to put unfounded faith in academics and professionals is because it’s reassuring to think that even if we don’t personally know the solution to our problems, someone out there is trained and certified to deal with with it. This is uuusually true, but less likely to be on the scale of people we personally know, and sometimes (like we saw during the pandemic) there just isn’t the research ANYWHERE yet and the most qualified people either have to lie about how confident they are or risk seriously freaking people out. It sounds like kind of a terrible choice to have to make.

A tuxedo cat with yellow eyes sits with its paws tucked under itself, though one white paw is poking out. it looks up with a round, shocked expression.

being an adult means I can use my big boy money (which is supposed to go towards stupid things like rent or food but who the hell does that) to force people to look at Melly.

look at her. she’s simply so Shaped

I actually meant like, a mast. mast-ectomy, cause every part of the ship gets removed at some point. maybe if it was a ship with one of those women sculptures at the front?

Probably because the Cyrillic alphabet is very closely related to the Greek alphabet. Here’s a Venn diagram of letters in common between the Greek, Cyrillic, and Latin scripts

frustratingly clever

"Average person discovers infinitely many infinities per year" factoid is actually just a statistical error. The average person discovers 0 infinities per year. Cantor Georg, who introduced the diagonal argument and discovered infinitely many infinities in 1891 alone, is an outlier and cannot be counted.

I think our coins should have holes in them. Currencies with holes in them are just superior currencies. All currency should be something you can string like beads. China knows what's up.
