Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Thesis: The Jester, compared to the Clown, is generally more aggressive and angular, but limited in their capacity to unsettle because they are a natural character. Canny and clever, they challenge the normal social order but are still recognizably human. 000
Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 03/09/2026The dollar sign ($) is — the only commonly used unit in English that precedes the number it qualifies — inconsistent with the spoken ordering — usually inferable from context On these grounds, I submit that we should place the dollar sign after the number, e.g., “Gas is over 4$/gal!” 000
Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 26/08/2026My friend Jason is taking piano lessons with his six-year old daughter, learning alongside her from the same teacher. Seeing him struggle and make the same simple mistakes as her, even though he can already play the guitar and the trumpet, seems to give her confidence that she will get better 💕🥰 010

Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026“Millenials are the best at computers because we learned the right way” doofs did not hang out with kids then or now.

Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Pawns are unique among pieces, in that their set of moves is distinct from their captures. As a consequence of this quirk, only pawns can occupy a square without changing the number of pieces attacking the square. The price is paid, regardless: weakness in the squares adjacent to the pawn. 010

Nathan Couch @ngcouch.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Bottle feeding is the perfect opportunity for reflective work: with nothing to do but monitor the level of milk in the nipple, the mind is free. And whenever the inquiry drifts too close to existential dread, you just look at the baby! 000
