I’ve seen so many clips of Chernobyl I’ve probably seen most of the series, but I don’t think I could handle a full episode. It’s so stressful. It’s like uncut gems, I had to stop halfway through because I felt a panic attack coming on.

It never occurred to me until now that the toy’s case was the yolk. 🤯

There are a lot of Europeans living abroad so who knows, but I agree, I’m pretty skeptical of such a fast rise.

Went to the park last night and the lake smelled like eggs, so this is why?

The neuromoron.

Yeah, this is the correct take. Objects or inanimate things have arbitrary gender, but sexed animals can obviously be feminine or masculine.

Edit: Oooooh, its name is Emily. Misunderstood what the confusion was about. ‘Une chatte’ then.

Oh man, I found chip’s challenge again a few years back (it took forever because I couldn’t remember the name) but I totally forgot about rodent’s revenge!

As far as I can tell, gen z’s more into Korea, Japan already seems passé (being in a midlife crisis meme doesn’t help)

As one 80s band might put it.

Parentheses can also be called (round) brackets, especially in the UK

Personally know a faculty member at Barnard who fled the Holocaust as a child. Sure he must just be delighted to witness such terrifying bullshit. Fuck these monsters.

I feel like the contradictions are the point. The most desirable trait of people like Tate or Trump is their impunity. They keep getting away with heinous shit, it’s the one thing that makes them demonstrably powerful, despite being disgusting, unimpressive scumbags.

Campbell’s first law of motion

Doesn’t musk have a story like that about chess? Like he doesn’t play because he finds it too easy.

God he reminds me of this kid I knew in college who would make up these long stories about beating up his bullies in highschool with his amazing karate skills. How do you go through life thinking you’ve convinced anyone of such obvious bullshit? It’s even sadder that they seem to have convinced themselves.

I kind of got both that impression and its exact opposite, like the whole paragraph feels like a long wink and a nudge, like the author would like to say “maybe fixating on ‘line go up’ distracts you from all that is good in life” but that would negate The Economist’s entire raison d’être.

It’s like Schrodinger’s argument.

It’s like they desperately want to prove how awful their ‘innovations’ are.

I’m getting Egger from MIB vibes.

With all the stuff about the ruthless efficiencies of multinational corporations, I took it more to mean ‘ill cough up the dough for a fairphone next time’. But maybe I’m projecting my own reaction to getting fucked by the 4a (all things considered, I’m actually kind of ok with the degraded battery life in the end, spent the 50 bucks on a couple external batteries and I rarely even need to use them).

You’re reading it backwards, and it’s a dal not a kaf, it says Madison.

Because placenta means cake in Latin, what we today call placenta being referred to in Latin as ‘placenta uteri’, ‘womb cake’. Yum.
