You ever think the reason Venus & Uranus rotate backwards, & why Uranus is rotating on its side, is bc of this quirk filmed in small-scale objects just happens on larger timescales for planet-sized objects?

You ever read the footnotes in the bible or other religious texts? I'm reading the footnotes of a section of the Revelation of Adam for the first time & got a bit surprised by #47 😅

47. That is, god masturbated.

48. Restored.

49. The sun and the moon.

50. After the twelve kingdoms, this is the kingdom of the 400,000 noted above.

51. This phrase may relate to the familiar unfolding of the word or logos as part of the creative act, with "mandate" referring to divine command or authority. This account is reminiscent of the logos hymn at the beginning of the Gospel of John.

The real stars of the show from my Paris trip There was another tart, but I forgot to photograph it before devouring it, but it was also least impressive so whatever 😅 Best of the trip was the mango flower from Cédric Grolet Runner up was the tarte aux citrons from Stohrer

Iconic Raspberry lil cake & raspberry passion fruit tart from Stohrer

Vanilla Pecan tart (omfg way too sweet I almost couldn't eat it bc I was getting hit hard by all the sugar) and a repeat of the incredible raspberry passion fruit tart from Stohrer

I didn't catch the name of this treat, but tasted like eating a perfectly ripe mango. Looks like a pretty orange flower. Base was an odd hexagonal cracker/biscuit that was structural more than adding anything to the flavor. From Cédric Grolet. Possibly the best tasting of the trip.

Tarte aux citrons - tasted like eating lemonade with the perfect balance of sweet & acidity. From Stohrer

Took the What's Your Type quiz Not enough representation imo - there's so much more variation in humanity that I'm into which wasn't even hinted at in the images presented But it did basically say my tastes are very different from ~94% of gay guys 😅 www.guidedtrack.com/programs/2dj...

How selective you are

Of the people we showed you, you said you'd be up for a date with 49% of them.

Compared with other people who date the same gender you do, that makes you more selective than 31% of them.

How mainstream your taste is

Some people are drawn to those that most people find attractive; others have their own, more particular eye.

Your taste is more distinctive than 94% of people who date the same gender(s) as you. A higher number means a more one-of-a-kind eye; a lower number means you tend to agree with the consensus.
