So the MAVEN spacecraft - the one that took the closest image of 3I/Atlas - has rather suddenly gone missing. I'm sure its just a coincidence but surely even skeptics have to be looking at the list of coincidences at this point and going hmmmm...

Actually looks ok. Hollywood girlboss obsession would have been a lot less objectionable if theyd stuck to girls with actual superpowers, like this. I mean in that context, knock yourself out.

An app that when you activate the camera with the phone held in a vertical orientation, causes your phone to enter Israeli Pager Mode I recognize that there may be some hardware upgrades needed but still

WTF, Gen Z are sick fucks. I'm not even talking about the foot thing

So fucking cool https://nhmu.utah.edu/articles/experts-explore-new-mushroom-which-causes-fairytale-hallucinations You owe it to yourself to read this. Absolutely wild The interesting implication this suggests... there are some specific "supernatural" observations shared across observers and...

I think you make a good analogy here. And I'm glad it was helpful for you. I know some find it helpful and dont dispute that. I made my comment in the context of a person who has tried more than one therapist and found them not helpful, but is being met with a string of "try a different one!"...

We're probably not allowed to say so in the grown up section because it may hurt someones feelings, but at some point in your exploration of therapy I hope you consider the conclusion many of us have reached, that its just a (mostly benevolent) trick, and that any good that could be "achieved by...

And it really cant be emphasized enough just how ugly that dude is. I find his behavior 100% believable.

This, exactly. No matter what excuse a person made for it, no matter what motivation they claimed, the reality was that they were treated as an actual RL woman by a sizable fraction of players in the game. The purpose of a system is what it does.

All the sex shit in the last 2 books is so cringe it makes me question my love of the series every time I re-read it. Its widespread in scifi of the era and its all so fucking cringe. I really wish authors of that era could have just rubbed one out and got back to writing instead of inserting...

I went back to check cause I was so sure, but it turns out you're right, it was 78 s

After the last episode this Mexican chick is a strong contender for most annoying Sheridan character ever. "When I kick you out you're not supposed to stay gone. You're supposed to figure out what you did wrong, then come back and apologize. Next time I kick you out, don't stay out!"

Such a boomer thing. My parents do that shit too. The phone rings and they will literally get up from the dinner table to go get it. It doesnt even rustle me, I find it hilarious. Whats worse is my inlaws. They'll answer their cell phone while still sitting at the table.

I dunno. I don't think they mentioned the length of the sequence, only that it was a 78 minute long signal. Assuming the signal encodes about 10-100 bases per second it'd get you into the range of virus genome sizes.

The worst thing about this argument (and holy fuck have we rehashed this a million times) Yeah its gay to roleplay a female character in a RPG, but thats been going on so long its practically a tradition by now. its much, much gayer to play a first person game in third person.
