Add someone else stated, it’s Kari Byron of Mythbusters fame. Found this on her official Facebook page via Google image search for “Kari Byron.”
- Comment on monthly challenge 2 weeks ago:
While it did use the greater-than symbol, it was arranged unconventionally. The way it’s written is “500 is greater than steps per day,” meaning don’t walk too much, which fits with the rest of the author’s theme.
- Comment on Big Balls Clapped 3 weeks ago:
Teenager with a dumb nickname who Elon picked up as a DOGE guy. I think he was the one who resigned after the Internet found social posts in his history that were pretty racist or something. He got rehired right after he resigned.

- Comment on Why doesn't the US name this state? Are they stupid? 5 weeks ago:
Or “Bay Area” so people can wonder if the speaker means San Francisco, Tampa, Chesapeake, etc.
- Comment on Belkin is ending support for nearly all its Wemo smart home devices 1 month ago:
My first smart home purchase was a set of four Wemo light switches to be able to turn on all four of my backyard lights without walking around the house (wraparound backyard with a light switch in my bedroom, living room, dining room, and kitchen). They’re still working nine years later, and as long as they still function locally with Home Assistant and don’t make a fuss, I’ll keep them in service. If they stop working or give me angry ref lights, I throw in some Z Wave switches.

Could be that there’s a door or window that’s contributing a lot of light down low, spilling under the mattress.

More unbelievable is the implication that the average applicant spends $5-6 in the vending machine

But we did recently invent a new color, or at least a new way to perceive color.

Looks like guide lines to start a drawing in three-point perspective

Easier if you send it to me in writing so I can properly digest it instead of having it immediately spill out of my ears.

While it’s nice to finally have closure on this, it’s also depressing that they removed that.
- Comment on In heat 4 months ago:
Not just you. I feel like search modifiers like “NOT” or “OR” haven’t been working for a good long while either.

Hmmm…
- Comment on What someone's doing to X right now 5 months ago:
While I can appreciate that it might be getting hit with DDoS, I really hope it’s deeper and causes data loss or something permanent. I want to see the world take everything away from Elon.
- Comment on Jon Stewart says the media cried wolf with its 'fascist' attacks on Trump 6 months ago:
The word “fascism” had been used a lot in regards to Trump - not because it’s a go-to insult, but because Trump is meeting every characteristic of the word.
Per Wikipedia:
Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.
- Dictatorial/autocratic: Issues a flood of executive orders and works through Elon to exercise singular executive power with zero regard for Constitutionality and separation of powers.
- Militarism: Threatens land grabs/annexations of Canada, Greenland, Panama, Gaza
- Forcible suppression of opposition: Lawsuits/investigations/threats against media companies that say things that hurt his feelings
- Belief in a natural social hierarchy: lifelong history of public racist and misogynistic comments
- Subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race: suppression of transgenderism, everything DOGE is shredding, abolition of CFPB, OSHA, etc.
- Strong regimentation of society and the economy: extreme censorship, immediate blame of disasters on DEI (even if only white, cisgender, qualified men were involved see DC airliner/heli crash), tariffs (and threats thereof), intent on destroying the renewable energy sector and forcing fossil fuels
- Comment on Trump Says He Could Cut Aid to Jordan and Egypt Over Gaza Development Plan 6 months ago:
Hey Dipshit Donny, you’ve already illegally cancelled all foreign aid. You’ve played your hand and your threat is now empty.
- Comment on Uncanny sandwich 7 months ago:
I had “while being an adulterous piece of shit” in my comment draft, but when I went to fact check, all I could find was stuff about his wife maybe or maybe not cheating on him. Those Google results are skewed…
- Comment on Uncanny sandwich 7 months ago:
I like the fact that he’s chosen to go with “moral barometer” in more than one interview. Consistently moronic.
- Comment on Uncanny sandwich 7 months ago:
Is it because he recommended women leave their atheist partners because of a lack of moral barometer? Or saying gay men aren’t real men? Or saying real men don’t have female friends? Is it because he’s a homophobic, misogynist, religious bigot? Or for the Miss Universe fuckup?

More or less.

People-shaped holes appear in the face of the mountain and people are psychologically drawn toward specific holes that match their own silhouette. The victims are unable to retreat once they’re in a hole, and progressing forward disfigures them.

- Comment on I like the determinism of Murphy’s Razor 7 months ago:
The meme creator absolutely butchered the vanilla version of Schrodinger’s cat. It’s not that the box contains either a live or dead cat and the observer is unaware of which it is, it’s that the cat in the box exists simultaneously in a state of being dead as well as being alive.
