No, the light could still be above the mattress on the ceiling at the bottom of the stairwell. This proves nothing.
But, the wear on the carpet indicates to me that those are the treads, so this is taken from the top of the stairs looking down. Also, not mentioned elsewhere, there is usually a nose on the treads and the carpet would follow the nose, which can’t be seen from above.

College rhymes with knowledge.
Stupider rhymes with Jupiter.
You know it’s a rhyme, so you got that part.
It’s an insult chant school girls use against boys. There’s nothing more to it than that.
- Comment on Duke University lost NIH grants because they used the prefix "trans" in reference to disease transmission, transgenic genetic material, translational studies and signal transduction 2 weeks ago:
That’s how fucking stupid they who are enforcing this garbage are. Word processors have for decades allowed searching for “whole words only”, which would stop these words from being flagged. The tech exists, they’re just too stupid and lazy to implement it.

"Labia? I don’t think that section of the sky is visible this time of year. Or, maybe it’s behind the full moon.

That last sentence kills me. “The big, dumb corporation was in our bedroom, holding a gun to our head! They made us bang!”

You’re the employee? Why would it matter to you what they use? Do your job, go home.

They had a good run. It was fun while it lasted.
- Comment on Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me? 4 weeks ago:
Same for me. As long as I don’t eat it. If I eat it, then hoooo-boy!

Hello.

- Comment on Only $50? 5 weeks ago:
First thought: “Who would buy this?”
Followed by the immediate realization that there is a certain subsection of our society who would definitely buy this. Sure, they’d lowball the offer, then try to get free delivery, but they want the couch.
- Comment on 9News US Correspondent Lauren Tomasi hit by rubber bullet during Los Angeles protests 5 weeks ago:
The article says, “caught in the crossfire”. They were afraid to report what can be seen clearly, the cop aimed at her with purpose.
- Comment on Ads when you’re pumping gas 5 weeks ago:
350% increase in spilled fuel. How much fuel were the full service attendants spilling? Not much at all, I think is what that stat is trying to imply. Why did they report it as a percentage? So you wouldn’t know how much would be spilled, I’ve never spilled fuel when gassing up my car. I doubt many people have spilled much at all–and certainly not routinely.
All that aside, I like to see people employed.
- Comment on Why are you here and not on Reddit? 5 weeks ago:
My concern is the extensive data Reddit collects and stores, and I’m sure will hand it over to whichever government agency wants it, and probably already have. They even keep track of what we upvote and downvote, including comments.
I feel less exposed here, I don’t know if that’s true, but it feels that way.
- Comment on Can't fathom it 1 month ago:
No one wants to hear it, I suspect, but eating very low carb is how this is done.
No sugar and no grains for one month and the cravings are gone. You can easily go 48 hours on water alone, if you need or want to.
What nearly everyone calls hunger is actually cravings for carbs. True hunger is painful and consumes every thought. Likely no one you’ve ever met has been truly hungry.

I recall at least one movie scene where the hero beat the bad guy with one, and we all knew that would definitely work.

Cool. Next time, include figging.
- Comment on I am not a builder… but that does not seem right 1 month ago:
Engineered roof trusses have made most interior walls non-load-bearing. 24" on center is fine for such walls. Exterior, load-bearing walls are still 16" OC, though.

“Complicated history” of bikers aside–and we CAN toss it aside because this is today–TODAY, wearing such iconography is inexcusable. This guy 100% knows what that SS symbol represents TODAY, and chose to wear it where he did. Stop making excuses for Nazis.

- Comment on George Floyd Murdered (2020) On this day in 2020, a Minneapolis cop murdered George Floyd by kneeling on his neck for more than nine minutes. Floyd's death became the catalyst for protests around... 1 month ago:
I, like many, watched live streams of the NYC protests. Once, in the fast-moving chat, because there were thin blue-line-idiots yakking, I asked “Are you saying you value property over life?” Sadly, I got back three clear responses that, yes, they did. Of course, there were Agents Provocateur in the protests stirring up violence, and the boot-lickers were IAmVeryBadAss talking about how they’d shoot anyone trying to break into a store.

“100% people”?
Are there 50% people? What is the other half? Wait! Centaurs?!

I love iced coffee.
Instant decaf dissolves just as well in cold water as it does hot water.

Don’t give your kids velcro shoes after about age three. Deal with teaching them to tie them for a few months. No, it’s not convenient, but you’re doing it for them, not you.
- Comment on 7 for me 1 month ago:
In the Winter, 1, plus heavy socks and sometimes with a sweatshirt. I keep the thermostat set at 50F at night, in the Winter.
In the Spring and Fall, 3, sometimes with socks.
In the Summer, 18 or 20, never with socks.
