Was just reminded of the "conditional hypothetical" thing the skull measuring IQ guys came up with (via the latest @maxread.info ) and realized one of my daughter's fav nursery rhymes has one. Bro you're congratulating yourself on being as smart as a literal baby!
A French nursery rhyme, for babies, that includes the lines "if the wolf was here, he would eat us, but since he's not here he won't eat us"

I feel like at a certain age you either become a streetwear guy who wears giant sneakers that look like a McDonalds PlayPlace or you start getting obsessed with increasingly baroque kinds of Cotton

Kind of a shame we'll never get to see Gen Z go through the experience Millennials had of reading thousands of articles about how their generation is ruining everything (because they don't know how to read)

This CEO assassination feels like a peak Law & Order episode except that one would end with McCoy finding out about the evils of the health insurance industry and somehow charging the whole company with felony murder (then regretfully sending the shooter to the electric chair, for Justice)

Imagine if everyone in 60s Star Trek smoked and then every time a new series comes out the fans insist they have to include the smoking and actually they're syntherettes and they're healthy for you

When did they start giving hurricanes such dork ass names. They should be named after ancient Mesopotamian deities. Nobody should have to be afraid of "Milton".

What did Kamala mean exactly when she said "because the past is never more than the internal essence (in-itself) of the future it encloses this presence of the past is the presence to consciousness of consciousness itself, and no true external determination"?

Just had the wild thought that when my kid is old enough to understand such things I'll have to explain Twitter -- and maybe all of traditional social media -- as a weird old timey fad like CB radio

I realize it's far too much to ask reporters on these stories to do in-depth research (like typing "median household income [city]" into Google) but some basic arithmetic would be nice. www.nbcwashington.com/news/nationa...

How is that a mistranslation! Oh it's not WEDDING soup, it's a soup served at banquets and feasts at which women are married
Wikipedia entry for Italian wedding soup:
The term wedding soup comes from a mistranslation of the Italian language phrase minestra maritata ('married soup'), which is a reference to the Italian royal family marrying off its women with banquets and feasts, where the aforementioned soup was popular.
