Biologists on biology: βThe biology of sex and gender makes it very clear,β Lents says. βThese are not hard categories with clear definitions.β Yep. www.sciencenews.org/article/biol...
When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.
As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.
Iβm from the Midwest, so my standard way of expressing that I care about someone is telling them to drive safe. (Note: Iβm aware that grammatically it should be safely. I donβt care. Thatβs not what we say.)
So drive safe friends.
the "esc" key on a keyboard is a holdover from early-'90s personal computers. on some models it would dispense a can of escargot out of one of the unused drive bays. they put it in the corner so you wouldn't press it by accident because you only got three of them. i pushed it once and got grounded
Writing tip: After you finish, go back & cut all the adverbs. Then all the adjectives. Then all the other words. Eat the paper. Now you're free.
If you ever get lonely, just remember that the

Watching Under the Bridge (a dramatized true story about the murder of a teenage girl in Victoria). I'm impressed at the way they wrote in the subtle racism. Not overt, not smack you in the face, but the kind of comments that were normal growing up there. We still have a long way to go.
God Jul!
From experience, pepparkakor is good with blue-cheese flavoured tube cheese (though a hotly debated food combo at the museum). Have you welcomed the gnomes into your home yet!!?
Guardian article reviewing waterproof raincoats, by Paddy Maddison βI didnβt think it was possible for my cat to respect me less. That was until he caught me testing a waterproof jacket in the shower. Him, motionless in the hallway, a textbook look of feline disapproval painted across his face. Me, slowly rotating behind a glass screen like a Gore-Tex doner kebab.β
This opening paragraph really made me laugh π€£
Thank you for the evil laugh of glee your comments have brought. I needed that this afternoon.
Iβm 100% ok with gatekeeping incels. If you canβt handle a woman being the protagonist or a non-white person being the protagonist of a video game, I donβt think you deserve to play games.
This is what I would have preferred to see.
Some of you clearly don't read/watch/passively intake enough #sciencefiction to know how bad AI can be and it really shows.

Not sure who made this & when but fittingly came across it in my downloads folder today:
A white background featuring three Richard Scarry pigs. in larger lettering at the top of the picture, Self Care Day Ideas. Below this: On the left, a pig, wearing a yellow dress and red shoes, is crying. Beneath is written, Have A Cry. In the centre, a pig wearing a white, long sleeved shirt, with a blue neck bow, blue trousers, and white shoes, is lying on their back sleeping. Below it is written, Take A Nap. To the right, a pig is standing, sideways facing right. They are wearing white shoes, blue trousers, and a yellow, long sleeve shirt. It is eating a green gherkin. Beneath is written, Eat A Pickle
Yup
No Manβs Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 are proof positive that GAMES NEED TIME AND PATIENCE TO PROPERLY DEVELOP.

Watching Cambridge MPhil Fin show Swedish school children #Viking filed teeth under a handheld dinolite helped round off an awesome last day on Gotland!
Hi hi! Could you add me please π
