@Leo_Abstract

if you're not very bright, and are speaking to me as if i am less bright than you are, that's an insult; don't be surprised if i respond in kind.

we aren't machines piloted by willpower: we cannot hold our breath until we fall asleep, and very few can choose to gate off pain signals. some can count calories long-term and starve themselves thin, but they are few. we're trying to solve obesity for the many, not the few.

Also for the record, it keeps happening that journalists call me and ask me to talk to me about my divorce because Holly spoke to them about my divorce. When they do this, I reply but I would not by default speak to journalists about my divorce.

For the record, when I met Sam Kirchner I was married to Holly Elmore, Holly and I got into an intense many day fight because I thought he seemed unhinged and unthoughtful. I wanted her to not work with him. Holly thought he was great and was very angry at me for being judgmental

@emperorthesteve there's an interesting argument this guy -could- be making (but isn't) which is "which religious system presided over which of our genetic changes, and which of these sets of changes do we like the most?". all three systems come off well or poorly, depending.

@anonrespector @Taleiisin @SlumRNA_Dog we make a lot of jokes about how no functioning society ever lets them vote, but one can note that the beginning of the decline is a society letting them speak in public.

My father never accepted Yoshi's addition to the Mario series only ever referring to him as "The Serpent". "The Serpent is at best a tool not a character", he'd say. One Christmas I asked for Yoshi's Story and instead received a bible. "The Serpent's story is in there", he said

Overdue pregnant wife: "How'd you sleep?" "I slept good." "Oh yeah just brag about it why don't you." *The next day* OPW: "How'd you sleep?" "Not good." "Well you still slept better than me." There's just no right way to answer this question is there?

@TomWright165389 @paleonormie Yeah, but unfortunately a different set of constraints that might as well be invariant prevent us from, for instance, building three modest homes on two lots, or whatever. The whole game is rigged.

@paleonormie Isn’t land a big part of the cost so more homes in the same area could help somewhat?

reminds me of the common misconception that we can make housing cheaper by building smaller houses. additional square footage is practically free relative to the fixed cost of getting the laborers and materials to your site
HankHeIl@HankHeil

One logical fallacy I've discovered as I've grown older is that expensive commodity products (lumber, aggregates) have almost 0 remarketable value. If you were to break down what you're actually paying for it's 50% diesel, 25% labor, 20% equipment depreciation, 5% input material

In the 3rd and 4th centuries Christian authors had to explain in their writings why women and slaves should have an equal place in the afterlife to emperors and men. The claim that contemporary Western ethics are just universal inclinations is evidently false.

examples I think I could do a better job avoiding smugness/snideness in these situations but on net I think it is good to remain willing to offend people who follow me rather than approaching egregiously bad comments with delicate care bc I have something to lose

every once in a while, I reply to someone who follows me in a way I am almost certain will lead to an unfollow, usually because they were aggressively hostile to someone or something I respect. I feel a vague twinge of — not guilt, but the shifting of a relationship — each time

Just remembered the time in high school math class when our teacher realized that none of the girls in the room understood how credit card interest works. She got almost angry, threw out our lesson plan for the day and did a credit card personal finance class, to which one of the ditzy rich girls said loudly at the end in front of the whole class, "I'm just going to marry a guy who understands this for me." Everyone laughed

@BigolWave a: "peating is like becoming a child again" b: "yes, but is it a good thing to do?" a: "it's comforting" b: "but is it -a good thing- to do?" a: "it's yummy, i missed eating like a toddler" this is why i started blocking peaters.

Peating in a way feels like coming home. Ice cream. Sugary sodas. Juice. Cheese. Fruit. Milk. Comforting gelatinous stews. All the things we intuitively loved as children. It just feels right. I missed you.. my old friends. Thank you for waiting for me

@revenant_MMXX I remember talking to someone about ink and paper vs audio books a while back... @DuckieLouise, I think... and apparently the existing research shows little difference in brain activity b/w them. I forget the details of the studies, though, and it's not my area of expertise.

לא עשיתי טיול גדול אחרי צבא. לא יצאתי למסיבות. לא סקס, לא סמים לא אלכוהול. התחתנתי מוקדם, עשיתי ילדים, עבדתי ועשיתי תואר במקביל, ואז עוד תואר, עוד עבודה, עוד ילדים, בתים, השקעות. אז באמת שאין לי שום ברירה, חייבת להשלים את הכיף עכשיו.
