aaaaaaaaaaa

are there any good, primarily veg(etari)an cooking youtubers? adam ragusea, fallow, kenji lopez-alt, are all good but also assume you'll be wanting to cook (with) meat like 70% of the time

A vast array of data suggests that school, not social media, is the biggest modern threat to the mental health of children. If you were recently a child, that won’t be a surprise. If not: enjoy the post :) open.substack.com/pub/unpublis...

Five jobs I've had: - TA

do electric motors have literally any disadvantages against internal combustion engines that aren't caused by battery energy density being lower than we'd like?

eternally unfair that they wasted a character design as good as Megumin on a show as slop as Konosuba

darkly funny how many people seem to see no contradiction between rightly condemning and resisting MAGA and ICE for acting like laws and morals don't apply to people they think are scum and saying shit like "punch your local nazi"

I think it's just because I hate the kind task switching and/or monofocus I find I require to feel active or caught up I can use discord if that's all I'm doing but tbh that's boring, and if I start doing something else I'll probably just go back to not looking at discord while I do it

very funny that "ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee" is such a famous phrase when nobody knows what it actually means

They say if you don't schedule maintenance, maintenence is scheduled for you, which sounds awesome, big load off my back

if I'm allowed to be cheeky, I'd argue that it still is progressive, because the anti-ai crowd that objects on art theft grounds (and not, say, worries of large disasters or human extinction) is acting out of fundamentally conservative emotional impulses

I wonder how much climate change denial has been helped by the fact that right now only the western US is getting regularly warmer in winter

Got an 8-hour flight, which seat are you- wait a minute...

michelle obama: “so many see me as just barack obama’s wife” guy who fucked 1 goat: “i have a solution but it’s not for the faint of heart”

feel like I'm doomed never to type faster than ~70-80 wpm

bluh still kinda dislike discord idk why

very disappointing that there's no Gregor Samsa/Grete Samsa fics on AO3

the POV character talking about Murphy's Law is an instant red flag in online fiction, tbh

Don't know who needs to hear this, but Unclench your jaw Let your shoulders drop Liquefy all your connective tissue for the nutrients Slither bonelessly off your chair Wick yourself up the walls through capillary action Envelop the room Become a new god Become a new god

I'm perfectly aware this is by far not the worst thing he's done, but Trump's constant presence - day after day after day - in the lives and headspaces of hundreds of millions of people (billions?), in the US and outside, is so taxing. Every morning, we wake up and have to think about this asshole.

sometimes I feel like the only person in the universe who doesn't ship Hornet and Lace

this is pretty surprising to me, because as far as I recall the spaghetti in the spaghetti carbonara flavor was completely fine

met the dude who drills all the breathing holes in arthropods. cool guy. real spiracle worker

my parents need a new car suddenly what's a good car

beep morning

I bet the best part of learning Japanese as a weeb is realizing how many of your favorite anime characters are named the equivalent of like Knives Evilman or Strength Strong or some shit

oh Lord, into your hands i relinquish this circus and these monkeys

apparently there's at least one bloons tower defense 6 youtuber

guy who went to zip file vs text file school: text, zip, zip, text. believe it or not, that's text

Miku Kitsune

oh my god i just remembered that there is an entirely seperate set of TEETH you start out with as a kid and they FALL OUT and this happened to ME HOW is this not more prominent in my memory????

they should invent a type of xenia who can implement advice

very frustrating how little of the medical establishment seems to acknowledge that the reason people become addicted to pain meds is usually BECAUSE THEY'RE IN PAIN

tired

Let GRRM(n) be the duration of time it takes for him to write the nth book. While we know that BB(n) grows faster than any computable sequence, it can also be shown that GRRM(n) ∝ BB(n) - C.

I wish there was something less permanent than a mute--call it a "strike"--if you have given a user more than three of them in say a one month period they are muted until the strikes expire.

I appreciate the Frozen fandom for having one of its most popular ships be incest yuri, but find it inexplicable that 90% of it is Modern Day AU slop with like 3 attempts to write a serious fantasy story

for someone who doesn't really have any employable skills (despite a degree theoretically saying otherwise) it sure does feel like I will not be able to acquire any before AI will be able to do it better for less money

very funny that you can just ask people at the end of a survey whether they told the truth and some fraction of them will just say "nah I lied a bunch"

remember stumbleupon? It's hard to put myself back in a mindset where the internet felt like a place of endless possibility such that something like that could feel like a worthwhile pastime. not sure what the split is between "reward circuitry blown out by algo feeds" and "not a teenager anymore"

wish I could react with horror to the ICE shooting, but I feel like you need to be surprised to be horrified I just feel a kinda dull "ah yeah they sure are evil huh"

yea

I also feel like it's insane that every mention of Elon Musk doesn't have a parenthetical mentioning DOGE killed hundreds of thousands of people

I'm pretty sure this isn't true, but if it is that's stupid people really do secretly think sex is a bad thing, huh

surely it hasn't been an entire year since the last CES surely
