We are bored of the fireworks We want to see the fire We're long past being careful Of what we wish for

Finally broke down and looked up "67" on wikipedia today, and i love that wikipedia had to include the fact that people are using the meme as evidence of "brain rot" in younger generations because of how low-effort it is. And like, i have no horse in this race, i'm clearly out of touch enough with what the kids are saying that i have to go look up memes on the internet to understand them, but brain rot? I'm pretty sure kids have been saying random numbers as memes since... like, the beginning of language. the beginning of numbers. I'm guessing that some time around 15,000 years ago in hunter-gatherer tribes all around the world a scene played out where one kid shouted "hey look, four rocks!" after seeing a few rocks on the ground, and every other kid in the tribe shouted "four rocks! four rocks!" and the adults just stood around like "what the fuck are the kids on about now?" and then had to live with the kids saying "four rocks!" every time they saw four of literally any object together. Like, this does not seem like a new phenomenon.

You make a compelling point. Especially because "four rocks" IS hella fun to say. Thanks for the new way to confuse my friends when hiking!

four rocks!!!

four rocks!!!

The high geologist strikes again.

Do you ever look back on a post where you were shitty to an obviously marginalised person for asking for the tiny tiny crumb of consideration that is "please don't literally express a wish that I didn't exist", and think "actually I kinda wish I could take that back"?

Because there's still time. You could just delete it. This doesn't have to end up being the next era of your life.

I really just have to emphasise that this is what you’re mad about:

“So basically my couch has electricity and I use it to charge my battery powered doorbell”

“Okay that makes sense”

Now explain it to a Japanese samurai from the year 1218

"do you know how waterwheels grind up grain in a water mill using the force of running water? We found a way to create a huge source of force that runs all the time and can transfer its force over long distance. I can tell you in more detail, but that's the basics. Now that is a chime that has a mechanism that one can press instead of having to open the door to let you know that you are waiting to be let in. It requires the transferred force to make the mechanism work and that wire is how we transfer the force to the chime."

i love these sort of posts because they feel like a vision of a kinder and more thoughtful world that I wish more than anything was the mainstream instead of the exception

What I think is the samurai would just find it dumb considering there are already outlets everywhere.

Avoidance is the worst reaction to stress. Oh this thing is giving me anxiety? And it's something I could prepare for by looking at it more or learning things about the topic? No, I will take psychological damage if I look at it directly. I will still be thinking about it and be stressed though.

So I can’t have zero calorie sweeteners because they all give me turbo migraines.

Well I’m trying to get back into doing muscle workouts especially my pecs so that I have better top surgery results.

This is related because I can’t have basically any protein powder on the market and protein is good for recovery after workouts. So I go looking for easy recipes for post workout drinks and unironically almost every article seems to recommend chocolate milk.

Take most saucy/soupy/ricey/pasta-ey recipe and add eggs. Just throw two or three eggs in the recipe. Also beans. Same method. Just throw them in (make sure they're soft).

“Members of Charlie Kirk’s organization spent two years aggressively stalking me, harassing and threatening me and my family, spreading lies about me, wasting my time and energy with a bogus lawsuit, attempting to end my academic career, and attempting to incite violence against me. They did similar things to hundreds of other academics who they saw as easy targets or obstructions to far-right goals. Kirk was not simply a guy with different views who liked to debate. He actively worked to try to destroy the lives of people like me. He lied to donors to keep the money flowing to his organization and he filled its leadership ranks with racists, misogynists, Islamophobes, and anti-LGBTQ extremists. He encouraged his young and impressionable followers to be cruel to vulnerable people. He taught young people that empathy is weakness and that laughing at people facing hardship and exclusion is cool. He treated the young murderer Kyle Rittenhouse as a hero and a celebrity that other young people should emulate. He supported racial profiling and the persecution of working-class migrants. He raised money for and publicized the most fascistic politicians pushing the most authoritarian policies. He added nothing of value to society. The world is worse for having had him in it.” - an academic targeted by Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA.
