I don’t think particle physicists in 2026 wake up in a cold sweat worried about preons. We are still taking measurements, but I don’t think theoreticians have any reason to invoke it – and IIRC its predictions have been outright contradicted experimentally.

Are any particle physicists particularly concerned with matryoshkas?
- Comment on Black coffee 1 week ago:
I accidentally had dairy for the first time in years the other day for a similar reason. Local café. Ordered some tofu and a mocha with oat milk. Nothing else. Get my order, and the mocha has dairy whipped cream (the only kind they have). Nowhere on the menu does it say it comes with whipped cream. No one making it stopped and wondered “huh”. And I wasn’t even with anybody to pawn it off onto.

I won’t dog on them since the context implies this is ESL, but seeing “etc.” punctuated as though it’s an acronym is unholy.

Why do I care about what “at least he didn’t rape the children his child rapist friend was trafficking and raping; still best billionaire 🥰” thinks about Luigi Mangione? At this point I’m just toying around, making fun of you for what an obvious sack of shit you are.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Oh, and now you’re trying to warp Gates’ building of a multitrillion-dollar monopolistic megacorp and donating part of his personal profits to charity into something akin to Robin Hood. Yeah, dude, the ruthless capitalist centibillionaire personally deciding who lives and who dies is practically a folk hero. And hey, he’s even out there donating money for syphilis research, which could help underprivileged associates of pedophile financiers who cheat on their wives.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Kind of weird to see you arguing that you don’t believe in the morale value of charity.
Kind of weird that you’re acting like stealing hundreds of billions through monopolization and exploitation and then giving some portion of it back is praiseworthy. Charity has moral value when you earned the money you have, not when you’re giving part of your ill-gotten gains back; that’s a partial offset, not a bonus.
Again, you could look at someone like Jimmy Buffett who just, you know, made his fortune being a pretty cool guy whose art people loved enough to pay for it, but you’re still ride-or-die for your favorite child rapist-hobnobbing, cheating, ruthlessly corporatistic and monopolistic Trump-ass-kissing thief of hundreds of billions of dollars under the justification that he gave some of it to charity.

as well as donating the vast majority of his wealth
Damn, I forgot that when I give away a portion of the hundreds of billions of dollars I stole through naked monopolization and exploitation, it makes me a super great guy – and the more money I steal, the betterer. How benevolent of Billy Billionaire; what a noble sacrifice. It’s a good thing Jeffrey was around to give him those antibiotics for his STD; I’ll bet he couldn’t have afforded those healthcare prices after giving the shirt off his back to charity.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Man, not like Jimmy Buffett or something? It had to be the man who used underhanded tactics – notable even compared to other massive corporations – to monopolize home computing and was buddy–buddy with a man he definitely knew trafficked and raped children while he cheated on his wife with multiple women. You clearly have poor taste in people either way, but hopefully in this specific case you just decided “fuck it” and carelessly decided that, out of the ~3000 billionaires, your guy is the one who remarked that a permanent ban of Trump from Twitter “would be a shame” and who used his platform to spread disinformation that climate change doesn’t pose an existential threat to humanity.
Even if the billionaire has to be alive, you’re remarkably stupid by choosing him.

Oh shit, good one. Wow, you’re so clever I almost forgot that you’re insufferable. Come to think of it, I tagged you after reading a comment from you some months ago where you called Bill Gates the “best billionaire”, so maybe your opinion of Luigi would’ve improved if he’d had extramarital affairs in the company of the 21st century’s most notorious child sex trafficker.

Hey, man, Luigi was fighting for you too; maybe with proper dental care, for example, you could finally have those boot polish stains removed from your teeth.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Damn, poor little baby sure is jealous that Luigi got the entire US talking about the evils of private healthcare for weeks if not months and took down a mass-murderer.
- Comment on Pino's Craporia 2 weeks ago:
Okay, but at least as the restaurant presents it (which I underatand isn’t necessarily representative), the garlic bread looks fine. So do customers’ pictures of the garlic bread. Out of 1042 reviews on TripAdvisor, it has an average of 4.2, and none of the pictures of food look sloppy.
Even when I see a negative review, it’s like “pizza didn’t have enough flavor and was a bit too oily”. Do I trust Aussies on Phillip Island to have a highly discerning taste for good Italian food? No. Do I expect that the food is generally disgusting and dripping with grease? Also obviously no.
