Halfway through typing a clever response to a person I have only a parasocial connection to and deleting it as I recall Scalzi's Law. Maybe my joke is actually clever, but if it doesn't land...?

This is relevant, too: men don’t see women being treated this way because men don’t behave like that to women who are accompanied by another man.

To give it credit, I guess, it's like the poor grammar in old scam emails: the *point* is that you don't want to reach people who think about what they're reading, those people won't give you their bank account information

I really think that it's coming from an unexamined belief amongst the right but also liberals that some people are less human than others. If you think a Palestinian child is exactly as human as you are, you would be able to think of little else beyond the genocide.

One of the more interesting structural elements in Frieren is the way that the text plays on hindsight to add progressive significance to a key moment from the opening chapter: Frieren’s emotional breakdown at Himmel’s funeral. #frieren 1/9

Frieren crying over the memory of Himmel.

WTF? Japan is trialing a drug that regrows human teeth by blocking USAG-1—a protein that keeps dormant tooth buds switched off. Phase I is done. Phase IIa in children with congenital tooth loss is next. If it works, dentures and implants could become obsolete.

Also remember that activated charcoal can interfere with medications that are taken orally. Same reason it's given for poisons.

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

It was ten years ago today I figured out what Shocker did with the fabric that was left over after he made his costume.

Panel from Superior Foes of Spider-man, drawn by me, color by Rachelle Rosenberg. Shocker is having a tough conversation with the severed head of Silvio Silvermane. It's in his shitty Brooklyn apartment, in front of a couch upholstered with the same yellow and brown fabric as his shocker costume.

This passage from One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This can be applied

"Vote for the liberal though he harms you because the conservative will harm you more" starts to sound a lot like "Vote for the liberal though he harms you because the conservative might harm me, too."
