I have 10 kg of Lutetium. Most hilariously useless element ever.

@DanFriedman81 Why is it so hard for people to understand that perhaps sex was just not that important to him? Perhaps because it's the center of their identity and they can't believe it's not like that for everyone?

Graham was an unmarried man whose mannerisms and speech patterns read as effeminate or gay. To the extent his gayness was the “worst kept secret in Washington,” it was because if you heard the guy talk, you suspected he might be gay. The “evidence” that he patronized male prostitutes is some anonymous posts on social media platforms and message boards that could be entirely fabricated. There has never been a single on-the-record claim or accusation from a named person. There has never been a shred of evidence. And I am sure a lot of people have looked for it, because outing someone like Graham as gay would make a progressive journalist’s career. It is very difficult for a politician to regularly patronize sex workers without getting caught because it is difficult for someone who has to make financial disclosures to move money around to pay sex workers. That is how Eliot Spitzer got caught; moving his hooker money around created financial irregularities that attracted investigators. Graham has never had any such financial irregularities. And while people on social media attribute the lack of any accusations against him to “NDAs,” his net worth was only $1.5 million. He didn’t have enough money to buy anyone’s silence because there are numerous places that would pay amounts he could never afford to get an embarrassing sex story about him on the record. It is plausible and perhaps likely Graham was gay, but unlikely he patronized male prostitutes. The “Lady G” memes are most likely fabrications. He was probably celibate.

NO IT’S NOT AI. 1986, "Kin-Dza-Dza!" stands as one of the most strange science fiction films ever produced in the Soviet Union. The plot is following two strangers who accidentally activate an alien teleportation device and find themselves stranded on the desert planet Pluke in the distant Kin-dza-dza galaxy. What unfolds is a masterclass in surrealist social satire, as the two bewildered humans navigate an alien civilization governed by baffling social hierarchies, incomprehensible customs, and a language barrier that transforms every interaction into pure comedic and philosophical gold.

@BrianRoemmele There's a sticker set for this on Telegram, believe it or not.

@atensnut We don’t have enough contraptions in our lives these days.

This contraption from a hundred years ago would be neat to have today.

@SketchesbyBoze One of my best friends did not understand “throw me the idol, I’ll throw you the whip” Sad times indeed. 😜

Ten years ago you could make jokes about Jane Eyre and Dracula on twitter and most people would get them; nowadays I have to explain references to Alice in Wonderland and The Hobbit as if we’re living in a very on-the-nose film adaptation of Fahrenheit 451.

@ArmedJ0y I read Kon-Tiki in 5th grade. I remember it being like two inches thick.

I was reading 400+ page books as a child.

@washghost1 Oh ya. I’m WAY out there

Are any of my followers out there

@washghost1 She was babysitting him?

Wonder how this even came about. Like how do you end up with her with such an age gap

@RadioGenoa That goat living its best life.

Family trip.

@elonmusk The thing about space power/compute is you cannot grasp the possible scales involved. In deep space, a 1000 km x 1000 km solar array with computing machinery would hardly register. Space is just THAT EMPTY.

If solar power in space is harnessed for useful work at scale, the value of that will far exceed the Earth economy, because all of Earth civilization uses much less than a trillionth of our Sun’s power

@jarvis_best Kind of amazing that Hillary being a serial killer is the most lighthearted and fun thing about her.

These new conspiracy theories are grim and cruel. Conspiracy theories should be lighthearted and fun, like how we convinced a lot of people that Hillary Clinton was a serial killer.

@Big_Geezy2126 Shot of a lifetime and couldn’t JUST HOLD STILL 😤

Footage of the Helicopter carrying the Vice President of the Republic of Zambia 🇿🇲 Mutale Nalumango taking off and Crashing in Nakonde Muchinga Province today.

Add stick riding to the ever growing list of black inventions.

@washghost1 Should’ve pantsed him when he had the chance!

There’s nothing saying that other customers can’t stop you from stealing and they did just that

@colethat1man @PajeetDeath But it IS the most normal thing in the world. To them.

@PajeetDeath There’s no fucking way they just killed that guy with a big rock in front of a whole fucking crowd like it’s the most normal thing in the world

@DChadwickAuthor @TheReactionGif Maybe she only sold a dozen copies. In which case she will show up on each person’s doorstep to check the status of the book.

@TheReactionGif You can't.

I’m all for ripping on people who pirate books, but this is super cringe. A physical copy of a book is not a license, nor do authors have the legal right to impose or enforce such a license. A physical book is the end user’s property, and they have every right to sell it or give it away.

@washghost1 In my house it would be the cat demanding food.

There’s nothing that could get me to open that door

@downbadcomment What a killjoy

@GreatDismal AM or FM?

In Vancouver, literally, the sound of car radios tuned to a dead channel. Bad morning for commuters.
