@redhairshanks86 The causal direction is not immediately obvious. General far eastern and buddhist aesthetics have been synonymous with air headed white women in the west for a while now, and Bali just happens to be an eastern buddhist island.

there is a weirdly feminine energy all over bali. and it’s not the light and bubble feminine energy of asian cuties, it is a kind of bitter and desperate "need to start a new life" energy. it feels like people are escaping something

@uncle_deluge God made us with 10 fingers, base 10 mathematics and its numerical descriptions of geometry based on decimal numbers is a divine message for us to discover

I really enjoy conspiracies that rely on things like the metric system and the Greenwich meridian being innate properties of the universe. Unironically. It's only a few steps removed from "math wasn't invented, it was discovered. The metre and the second as pure units of reality

@Juniperjessiii @rawgoatcheese I don't think modeling your life after how people used to act 'thousands of years ago' is a very smart idea in general

@NwabeJ @rawgoatcheese How exactly do you think people ate thousands of years ago?

@LostLandshark The one downside of actual skullcrushers was always that it doesn't crush your skull. This elegantly fixes the problem.

@SocialNomadRach The fact that this thread is 90% comments by people that are actively failing high school level math is pretty funny.

@sullivan_mma In Iran, it's normal to hold hands with your male friends just to show you're buds. It's not gay though.

"Second Lieutenant Viktor Kondratyev commanded the platoon. During the battle, they had to cross the field under a hail of fire, but the attack stalled before a barbed-wire barrier. The nineteen-year-old had to give an order to one of his subordinates: to go forward and lift the barbed wire so the platoon could crawl underneath. Who should he choose from among these young, strong men? Who should be sent to certain death? The bright, noble soul did not hesitate long, and like so many others, Kondratyev gave his life, performing the great feat of saving a soul. The second lieutenant made his decision—he lifted the wire himself and died, while the platoon advanced and destroyed the enemy."

I feel like pilots should speak in a unique pidgin language developed over a century that they learn through apprenticeships. It should be almost liturgical. I dislike the fact that they speak regular English.
Tristin Hopper@TristinHopper
Language is actually an interesting topic in aviation, because the global standard is that pilots just speak English. It would have been more inclusive to do otherwise, but they decided at the beginning that practicality and safety reigned supreme.
