I am fascinated by maths (mainly because I’m so crap at it, but it’s also great philosophy), but I’m more fascinated by this dudes whiteboard marker game AND his phenomenal stash of white board markers boxes in in the background (?) youtu.be/WI_qPBQhJSM?...

Opportunity‘s bottom lines are wobblier than the lines on a Squiggle. All the party has done is confirm what everyone I argued against said: they’re probably willing to swallow anything to be part of government. So, as someone who just resigned from the party: I was wrong about them.

I was on a working committee to get Civics AND Philisophy as core junior high school topics, it got nowhere with the ministry. A lot of bunker protection from withing my fellow Social Studies colleagues didn’t help. This was frickin 1993!

today's legal complaint against NZ for breach of climate rules under EU trade agreement is a high-stakes case. NZ's Coalition govt is predictably using nationalism (foreigners can't tell us what to do) to divert attention from NZ not being fair in trade www.sciencemediacentre.co.nz/2026/09/30/n...

I know this will shock everyone but Eric Schmitt is still wrong — there were *six* NBA games that night, not one. Hawks/Hawkeyes confusion remains the likely explanation. www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/?m...

Schmitt: We had information Jack Smith was at a basketball game. There was only one NBA game that night which is why I asked him if he was in Atlanta.
That's what these hearings are for. You ask questions, you get answers. Smith has perjured himself before, but... maybe he's a Caitlin Clark fan. We'll accept that.x.com/Acyn/status/21...

Using Spanky McNomates maths "the debt is $16 billion dollars higher. In 2023, we were told we were told we'd have a $2b surplus now." That'a an $18b hole (where hopes & dreams for decency in his heart subsides).
