Hi 👋 PhD (literature) here — Data centers’ unprecedented water usage has caused the volume of our oceans to shrink and with it, the circumference of the earth

@Aella_Girl @emilykmay (turns out the NYT writing feminist swiftie has bad gender takes)

@emilykmay monogamy historically has been like an anti battle thing right? like a truce like 'fine you get one lady i get one lady i will not try to get your lady'. like look at what happened with the extra men from the mormons. or the extra gorillas

when it comes to heterosexuals and non monogamy i bristle a bit when I hear straight men say things like "monogamy is a tool of the patriarchy to stifle growth" when in reality monogamy for straight men has historically been about them finally practicing restraint.

We have non-alcoholic beer. Why can’t we have non-cocaine coke, for those of us who are sober but still enjoy the æsthetics of snorting a line of blow?

@AzPetrich Jesus was a pre-Arab conquest Levantine. If you'd like to see an example of what that group looks like, here's a modern one. THIS is what Jesus looked like.

twin flame. nah. triplet flames- no. quadruplet flames- yessss

@cremieuxrecueil Temporality: The cause must occur before the effect (the only criterion absolutely required).

If you use the Bradford Hill criteria, the claim that Ice cream makes you White looks to be on solid footing. In fact, it's on more solid footing than the claim that ice cream makes you healthy!

@eat_dc Its nice that the sky got so much bluer in that time frame

May 2012 vs Today. Florida Ave and 4th St NE.

1/4. Each year, MIT receives about twice as many applications from potential male than female students (see 2/4). Yet, roughly equal numbers of males and females are admitted (see 3/4). Thus, a significantly greater percentage of female than male applicants are admitted to MIT each year, resulting in annual female:male preference ratios of about 2.0-2.5 (see graph below). Is MIT unlawfully weighting applicant sex in its admissions process?

@sbkaufman Eat 500 fewer calories than you need everyday with at least 0.7 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight, and lift weights for an hour per week, just enough to prevent atrophy.

What’s the most science-backed way of losing body fat percentage (not just water weight) other than just eating tons of protein and doing lots of weight lifting and cardio? Thanks!

@damnidc__ You're of course right but nothing magic changes at 19/20. Some women in their mid-to-late twenties look like they could be 19. We can't let men who date them get away with it.

@FreeRangeKids I dont believe that kids love going to the grocery store or doing laundry

A Chicago mom started a "REAL WORLD" summer camp: Kids go to grocery, laundry, even a cemetery. And they find their way via public transit. THE KIDS LOVE IT! The parents are GRATEFUL! The clothes are CLEAN! letgrow.org/real-world-sum…

This 93 year old has found new freedom after she bought a new @Tesla Model Y with FSD. She also uses Grok navigation. "Although she has always been a good driver, my mom can now drive without the fear or fatigue that can naturally come with age. No more relying on others for every trip. No more feeling stuck. This is true mobility that can spark new adventures in a still adventurous women!" (via Dan Doyle's Family Channel. Full video below)

@CartoonsHateHer The critique is coming from the people having sex with the women, but the counter-evidence is coming from the women

Married mothers, especially over 40, are usually stereotyped as being uninterested in sex, or "boring" in bed. But according to my most recent survey (and backed up by more legitimate sources) they're actually having the best sex of all. Link in replies.

@CartoonsHateHer @grok what shoulder to waist ratio do women find most attractive? Also how wide is an average IUD at the top compared to the shaft?

mom come pick me up clavicular is shaped like an IUD

fiancee is recounting the details of her girls night out and so far no part of it passes the bechdel test

I painted Tiger Woods apologizing to the tree he ran into

@gbrl_dick I been saying this

last thing you see before they kidnap you from the loving arms of your baby and black-bag you to a mendocino surf motel with a macbook air and a linear board that you have to prioritize before the daily standup you're going to have to run from a motel pool lounge-chair

@avidseries @grok Has anyone studied how well white babies do when going to white doctors vs other race doctors

@StatisticUrban My gay four-cule is feeling a bit too cishet so we gotta add a fifth guy to make it ethical

Was looking for an old tweet and stumbled on a thread that was basically people debating the question: "is it ever ethical to have a relationship with an odd number of penises, or is that inherently cishet?" It was like looking at the archives of a long-lost civilization.
