Question: We have the expression/image of “peeling the onion”. What’s the expression or image for moving in the opposite direction? As in, peeling an onion but from within moving out? From the center layers to the surface?

It’s a topologically insignificant transformation. He wouldn’t even notice. He’s actually just a worm.

none of the gotcha examples of "out-of-control scientific spending" bother me in the slightest. isn't science about finding shit out? "they spent a million dollars of taxpayer money to see if they could make mice sexier" okay, well, what was the answer? I want to know too

Math History is wild, it will just be like: “His ideas were so grotesque that he was disowned by all his friends and colleagues, labeled a disease against humanity and a stain on the face of gods creation. He died an insane pauper. Today his ideas are used in every aspect our existence!”

I think some people believe that they shouldn't ever have to see or engage with children because they didn't have children. But you're obligated to be kind and gracious to children not because you have them but because YOU WERE ONCE A CHILD

(taking 6 repeated hits off of your joint without asking) the mouse was actually unnamed, mickey was the name of the scientist who made him do all that shit

Your warm periodic reminder: look up from your phone right now at whatever slice of the world you’re in and do your phenomenological reduction.

I simply would have played b2 on that third move.

"It is not clear whether Moore should be called a philosopher or a pedant of such outstanding ability as to push pedantry and literal-mindedness to a point where it became a philosophy." - another gem from Gellner's "Words and Things" (1959).

Are there any historians here working on the history of wine? I'm currently writing an article on the topic and would be glad to exchange ideas or drafts if anyone is interested. 🍇

There are no selves. Stop talking about them.

The funniest thing happened today - I tried to subvert the ancient prophecy, but my own desperate contrivances ironically caused that very prophecy to come to pass! Typical.

“This drink needs more entropy” said no successful mortal being ever. Real organisms are like “gimme those low entropic drinks, I’m metabolizing over here”.
