Unacceptably ugly word of the day: strategyproofness

Project Hail Mary is a beautiful brilliant film. But molecular biologists be warned there's a deeply disturbing scene midway through when Ryan Gosling's scientist places two eppendorfs directly next to each other in an otherwise empty unbalanced microcentrifuge & sets it spinning with wild abandon.

I was convinced to go have a drink in wrigleyville this weekend

New research published in The Journal of Pissing Off the South provides solid evidence that corn bread can in fact be baked in a Taiwanese rice cooker, but more research is needed before it can be moved to trials.

How dare they try to pass off these almond cookies as Japanese.

@anthelonious.bsky.social what is this. They are advertising Hulu on my apples?! Is this normal? Are other people seeing this ?!?

Me. Gay: "You know I have to admit, I don't quite know what the difference between Pork and Ham even is."

All the recent horror I've read in bookclub is intensely structured. I know the murderer is coming for the protagonist and when it is likely. "No don't go into that room!" An Urlsa K Le Guin book on the other hand

F*** yes, whoever planted these miniature irises

At the deli today, a man was asked if he wanted mild or spicy giardiniera. And he responded with, "a little bit of both". I assume this ill-advised response was caused by him being caught off guard and not some sort of morally depraved, nitpicking preference. Nevertheless...

Was telling my friend that it's cute how my betta fish gets excited when I feed him.. runs around excitedly in circles like a dog... Friend: "Wait. It can recognize you?!" Me: "Yes... I am a walking skyscraper to him. When I feed him, my body blocks out the sky and I pour mana from heaven."

Damn. Guys. The red line. Some nights the red line is so bad.

The Unicode consortium is a group of volunteers who suffer from the worst sort of criticism. That said I think it's a bit of a failure that they haven't reserved a code point for a "no AI" symbol of some kind. Does humanity need some great graphic designer to rise up and make 🚫🤖 compelling?

AI rant: It's so trendy right now to use LLMs to do sentiment analysis longitudinally. Such as. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... This is fun and easy. It's bad science. You can and should use a simple, reproducible measure.

$200 billion divided evenly among the roughly 60% of the US population who pays taxes is what ... like $970 per my calculations. We should send invoices for this amount to people who voted for this. They might struggle less to understand this amount than to understand the value of human lives.

Watch as I take on the newest v2 climbing challenge at my gym.

Please Jewel-Osco. Think of the moral implications of this. With pistachio consumption at an all-time high And an act of war against Iran, one of the major producers... Is it moral to pretend to waste pistachios like this.

And someone from the north side of Irish descent that has never been to the South side Irish neighborhood... I imagine it would be a lot like traveling from Rivendell and finding yourself in Lothlorian.

The Trump administration started this war without even considering the effect on Japanese language learners who now have to learn such fascist circumlocutions and disagreeable words such as 国際法範囲外 ( outside the bounds of international law ) 終末時計( doomsday clock ) and 地球滅亡 ( end of the world? ).

"The patient isnt saying <cum rot>, you idiot", chided Dr House, "He's trying to say <Chum Ruot>.The idiot didn't check the expiration date on his celebratory lunar new year Vietnamese spicy gooseberries before eating a huge batch of them and now he has a tummy ache."

Me. A weak little guy. Just wanting a little mental health. You. BlueSky political poster. Demanding I stop living in a fantasy.

Thank you Chinese kitchen matt. Yes. My thoughts exactly.

Cognitive offloading for weak people who refuse to learn to think for themselves.

Spoiler. I decided to post the end of Cormac McCarthy's The Road

My parents called last Sunday to complain that a local restaurant was charging an obscene amount ($9) for a fried egg. I quoted them that the war was costing us 1 billion a day, and that they're just out of touch with how expensive things are now.

I bought a wii nunchuck ... And it perfectly matches this stupid imported Japanese notebook

Saw this at the thrift store and I genuinely did not understand why any of this would be useful for growing an autumnal outdoor decorative flowering plant.

I might actually be exhausted on Chicago novelty beers.

At some point when it becomes clear how bad it's gone, he'll try to blame his failure on everyone who wasn't enthusiastic enough for his war.

My body is so sore and I need to know if it's because I played soccer without subs yesterday or because I slipped and fell down like a flight of stairs.

America used to be a country that could build. And then we forgot our national pride. We forgot how to build monuments.

I mean. Damn.

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

Sorry isn't mullins just a blonde Hegeseth? Or does he have a different brand of liquor?

Some people ask how I know that Springfield is in the Midwest. There have been many clues.

"Neocons? I thought you guys broke up decades ago" "Nyet that is what we wanted you to think!" * Tapas in Texas are immediately renamed to Freedom Snacks *

Ooooh EWTN Catholic drama.... Honestly how have they not gotten some of that Peter Thiel money.
