There’s a description of armed conflicts as arcs spiraling upwards, a small skirmish becomes major mobilization becomes battle lines becomes total war… TDS seems to work the same way. What starts as a personal dislike of his style ends up as prayers that US service men are captured and tortured by the enemy and it’s not easy to see at point A you’d end at point Z but it keeps happening.

Times like these are a valuable reminder that a lot of the commentary/criticism you see on here is just unthinking hostility to America/Americans. Lots of people get trapped in cope cycles and never leave.

@eigenrobot @orthonormalist This is what happens when democracy isn't working.

I do genuinely wonder sometimes if I'm too bloodthirsty (or, rather, complacent about the presumed necessity of violence)

Nobody craves the patriarchy more than a teenage girl fighting with her mother.

@wil_da_beast630 Partly covid, partly computers instead of books in schools.

Pretty significant declines in the Black, Hispanic, and Other cohorts - Blacks down from ~250-222 (vs 279 for "Whites") over the period of analysis.
COVID?

@IterIntellectus @secemp9 They could just ask ai what the water is for. These people have zero curiosity about how their world works.

Interesting question.
What?

For those who think women should keep separate finances and income “just in case” her husband stops providing for her… What do you think men should do to prepare for “just in case” his wife stops sleeping with him?

@TheWalterMagic Irma Zarutska represents the consequences of their values. That's why it's upsetting for them to see her image.
English
Because George Floyd represents their values and Irma Zarutska does not.
Nikki Moonitz@NMoonitz
Why are images of Iryna Zarutska considered divisive but images of George Floyd are not?

I wonder what else would surprise the Japanese about

@eigenrobot My daughter got mad at me until recently whenever I told her that a boy had a crush on her. "We're just friends."
"He has a picture of you on his night stand."

a boy in my daughter's preschool class keeps giving her pokemon cards
i don't think she has even the slightest conception of what a crush is

@biancoresearch The fact that this completely idiotic post got 1.7k likes has me extremely depressed about democracy

Please explain why, having this technology, you would focus on Bitcoin?
Why not Fedwire, and take trillions from the banking industry?
Do hackers really think this small?

@verbalriotshow It's probably harder to sell stuff nowadays, because a lot of it is pretty terrible and they're aware of it.
English
Are actors not taught anymore that besides the acting, part of their job is to also SELL the movie/show they're in.

@peterrhague There's "American cheese" and then there's cheese made in America. It's important not to confuse the two.

I did not realise I was challenging the entire state of Wisconsin to a fight with this joke.
Peter Hague@peterrhague
@hoshizorarock As an Englishman I would hesitate to describe the substance they use in America as “cheese”. It’s some chemical slop.

My daughters hate it when I tell them that they're PMSing, but my accuracy on this is 100%.

@wil_da_beast630 This is great. We need more right-coded crime. Maybe we can get back to "super-predators."

Milly Alcock on what she learned from Game of Thrones about potential fan backlash to Supergirl: "It definitely made me aware that simply existing as a woman in that space is something that people comment on. We have become very comfortable having this weird ownership of women’ s bodies. I can’t really stop them. I can only be myself.” (Via @VanityFair)

@nic_carter @dotkrueger Y2k took a multi-year major international effort to avoid problems. It's a perfect example of taking issues seriously and putting in the work to avoid disaster.

1. it's not me versus you. it's you versus google, dan boneh, craig gidney (if you followed quantum, which you don't you'd know the name). good luck
2. you don't get time to "wait and see". quantum progress is discrete and nonlinear, which you'd know, if you had read the google paper, which you haven't.

Q: Fred, what do you think of Quantum? Is Nic Carter Right?
A: No. Nic Carter is wrong. We are still solving toy models with Quantum. When Quantum is further along, Bitcoin will adapt. Remember Y2K?

@IMAO_ The ratio of guys to meat in this photo is too high. I can only assume that this is just the first batch.

Someone from Japan will see this and call it the largest amount of meat they've ever seen. An American will look at this and call it "Tuesday."

@alexthechick The new limiting factor: how many Starburst can I chew at once.
English
(long tweet warning)
It is vital to know why limiting principles exist before removing them.
For example, there are Starbursts in the reception desk candy dish. I love Starbursts and would snag some from the candy dish at least once, usually twice a day.
A few weeks ago, I decided that I, an adult capable of providing for my own needs, would buy my own bag of Starbursts to keep in my office for my consumption instead of taking them from the receptionist candy dish.
Well. Apparently the limiting principles on how many Starbursts I will eat in a day are 1. laziness of having to walk to the reception desk to get them and II. shame in how many I would take in a day.
*shoves Starbursts into maw*
