- Comment on Will The Hunt for Gollum really be two movies? That’s got to be a stretch 2 months ago:
But don’t forget to spend half a year to make a cover story by buying house near the woods, good cover is very important or nazgul nsa will look at spending records and realize you are gone (thus you have a ring, according to statistical models)

Nah, that’s a period when gandalf fucked off for 17 years (in books) (or 2 minutes of montage to library in movie) to find what the ring was and returned to shire to make frodo go away

- Comment on Elsevier 5 months ago:
It can be used to spy on any decent scientist who will send papers his/hers/theirs institution has access to, but their friend doesn’t. Much fun. As a reminder, publishers don’t pay reviewers, don’t pay for additional research, editing is typically minimal, and research is funded publicly, so what they own is social capital of owning big journal

The shortest-lived creatures on the Disc were mayflies, which barely make it through twenty-four hours. Two of the oldest zigzagged aimlessly over the waters of a trout stream, discussing history with some younger members of the evening hatching. “You don’t get the kind of sun now that you used to get, “ said one of them. “You’re right there. We had proper sun in the good old hours. It were all yellow. None of this red stuff.” “It were higher, too.” “It was. You’re right.” “And nymphs and larvae showed you a bit of respect.” “They did. They did,” said the other mayfly vehemently. “I reckon, if mayflies these hours behaved a bit better, we’d still be having proper sun.” The younger mayflies listened politely. “I remember, “ said one of the oldest mayflies, “when all this was fields, as far as you could see.” The younger mayflies looked around. “It’s still fields,” one of them ventured, after a polite interval. “I remember when it was better fields,” said the old mayfly sharply. “Yeah, “ said his colleague. “And there was a cow.” “That’s right! You’re right! I remember that cow! Stood right over there for, oh, forty, fifty minutes. It was brown, as I recall.” “You don’t get cows like that these hours.” “You don’t get cows at all.”

i was also surpised tbh, its much more thorough about both materials and reasoning (although it could all be false). Also very strong opinions about who built first thermonuclear, with whole paragraph discussing it.
