A friend of mine in Zambia taught me how to fry caterpillars. They are like squishy french fries. They are fine. They pair well with chibuku.

I was sure this was a Suddam Hussein post.

I lost my smell to COVID in that first year, before the vaccine. Recently and for the first time since, I smelled petrichor and I could have cried.

- Comment on Calculatable 1 month ago:
I am using and loving Solve by Pomegranate Apps. Multiple workspaces and advanced functions available a swipe away. It doesn’t seem to be available anymore, and it looked like the company was hitting hard times when they dumped things like Trump quotes and other shit apps into the store. So, apprehensive to recommend because of weirdness but best calculator ever.

Fun fact: timbits were named so in honour of his fatal drunk driving car accident.

Non-United-Statesian here; try it; trust me.
- Comment on California’s new law forces digital stores to admit you’re just licensing content, not buying it 2 months ago:
Or force them to admit they are selling it for real without all the license mumbo jumbo. They have always known what “buy now” buttons were meant to lead you to believe. And — in my humble opinion — you aren’t wrong for believing that; they are.

Huh, only a mere 6 alts to send the message you are sad about being wrong about science.

You can calm down because I don’t care. Enjoy your massive W, buddy.

That isn’t clear at all and I’m not even sure I agree, regardless. Hydrostatic equilibrium is a regularly occuring thing. No, I’m not looking up how regular. The Universe is mind-bogglingly enormous and everything is unusual. Have a good day.

But it isn’t a mystery at all. The moon is moving away from us. For billions of years the moon’s apparent size was larger than the sun. For billions of years later it will appear smaller. It’s simply a lucky coincidence we live in this moment in time, in that regard.

Pedophiles in the olympics, our strange toilets with the “poop shelf”; I just can’t win today.

I made a rather mean comment and I am disappointed in myself. It was meant as a joke. Please accept my apology.
- Comment on Is this normal for girls or just a extreme edge case? (Serious question) 4 months ago:
Did you put it back in the refrigerator? Did Mom find it under your bed? This wasn’t an accident; someone made an intentional power move and your family is toxic.

When I think of whales holding their breath for hours, I get anxious. I know they evolved differently. But if I suddenly became a whale, I’d be hearing the Sonic drowning music in my head all the time.
- Comment on Breast Cancer 4 months ago:
The AI genie is out of the bottle and — as much as we complain — it isn’t going away; we need thoughtful legislation. AI is going to take my job? Fine, I guess? That sounds good, really. Can I have a guaranteed income to live on, because I still need to live? Can we tax the rich?

Look on the bright side: a vote for Biden is really just a vote for Kamala Harris with extra steps.

The most dangerous phrase is “we’ve always done it this way”.

Can elope 🥰
- Comment on *sweating intensifies* 8 months ago:
Because assuming you are human is not so much about the correctest of selections as much as it’s about moving the cursor around the screen in imprecise, non robotic, humanly ways.

I was watching some crows chase around an eagle the other day. The pathetic squee noises it made like it’s saying “I toldja I was sorry I ate your babies” has me wondering why we have all fallen for this whole eagles are a symbol of power gobbledegook.

- Comment on Virtual Boy Pro for Nintendo Switch - Announcement Trailer (2024) 8 months ago:
The VR mode was added to work with the Labo kit. But these headsets also exist now… because…? I don’t think the Labo was head-mounted, but maybe I’m wrong because I never had Labo.
