my favorite thing to do here is say “i haven’t agreed to off the record” and see their life flash before their eyes
Kristin Merrilees@kristnmerrilees
whenever you tell someone at a party you’re a journalist and they clamor to clarify that they’re “off the record” it’s like. you just told me a story about your cat throwing up after eating funfetti cake batter. should we call the new york times? should we invite bella hadid ?

@DisabledDem I've had many specialists brush me off when I say I have Reynauds.
When I show them a pic of my Reynauds they gasp and call the resident over to show them what 'real' Reynauds looks like 🤣
How many people just don't have pics so they're not believed :(

I know someone who had Lyme disease over 20 years ago. They took a pic of the bullseye rash with an actual camera then scanned the print.
20 + years later some doctors are real jerks about asking "are you SURE you had Lyme?", until this person shows them the photo.
"Oh."
Oops

there’s a musician joke: night of the big performance. the orchestra is all about to go on stage, but the conductor falls and smashes both his hands. he’s taken to an ambulance. all the musicians are standing in the wings, offstage, wondering: what now? the audience is waiting.
the second chair violinist is feeling brave. he knows this whole piece. all the parts. he steps to the front, to the concert director. he says: i can conduct this. the director says: alright. they all go on stage. the violinist goes up to the conductors podium. sweating. he starts. does the whole piece perfectly. standing ovation. the next day they all come in for rehearsal. the violinist is back in his second chair. the first chair turns to him and says, “hey man, where were you last night?”

You’re telling me if the conductor didn’t wave his hand a certain way all these musicians would be clueless as to what they should do?

@a_fellow_of the kids community failing him, but I can definitely see it. especially with how it starts, that the disciples are arguing with the experts in the law, with no concern for the kid

@a_fellow_of thanks for the thoughtful reply! based on that, the stories of intercessory faith stick out to me, where Jesus heals based on someone else’s faith, and this fits with this passage’s theme.
I don’t think I would have ever thought of the point of that passage being a critique of

@a_fellow_of I have a question: in mark 9:23-24, Jesus heals based on belief, so how do I interpret my experience of others praying for my healing many times, and never experiencing it? because the people praying don’t fully believe? does Jesus give an example of this elsewhere?

Telling a joke to your wife: Hey, honey, here's a joke. [Tell joke]
Showing a joke to your wife on X: So, here are 8 prior posts you need to read. Let me explain who all these people are. Oh, and you need to know about this thing that happened last year for the joke to be funny.

Worse is Better: Landfills
When I was a child, I thought that landfills were terrible. Just dumping everything in one spot seems so messy and contrary to the legibility and order that we think of as good. Not to mention the environment: isn't it bad just to put all the garbage in the ground? In my childish mind, everything should have been cleanly sorted for recycling. Is seemed so dumb to just dump it on one big pile on the ground.
Now it turns out that this is probably optimal. We've learned that most "recycling" is a scam, where garbage gets sold and resold between recycling venues until finally it ends up with somebody who just dumps it into the Pacific ocean.
On the other hand, putting stuff in a landfill is cheap and scalable. It's easy to fit a lot of stuff in a landfill, and ensure that it doesn't spread everywhere -- when you're done, you can cover it.
What's most interesting is that a landfill is fully recoverable. When there's any kind of materials shortage, you can in fact just go to the landfill and start mining it, which has started happening over the last couple of years. Enterprising governments/people are mining their landfills for rare earth metals, and it's working. Which really just makes the landfill a kind of a temporary deposit structure before eventually recycling or reusing those materials in a more efficient way. That seems pretty good!

I just bought one of those new washer dryer two in ones. Clothes go in dirty come out clean and dry. They’re ventless now and use a heat pump. 60% less electricity used. We’ll see if I chose correctly
