Try this on for size: Tipping is a Legacy of Slavery

This opinion by Michelle Alexander always stuck with me.

When people would do something then say “psych”

Twitter and BlueSky. Shifting more so to the latter the worse the former gets.

Here’s the graphs of all objects in the universe.

Here’s the figure legend: Masses, sizes, and relative densities of objects in our Universe. Time-dependent background densities are color-coded as in Fig. 1. The diagonal white dashed isodensity lines correspond to the intersections in Fig. 1 of the vertical isochron lines with the black density line. Gravity and quantum uncertainty prevent objects of a given mass from being smaller than their corresponding Schwarzschild radius [Eq. (6)] or Compton wavelength [Eq. (7)]. Schwarzschild black holes lie on the black m∝r diagonal line which is the lower boundary of the “forbidden by gravity” region. The masses and Compton wavelengths of the top quark (t), Higgs boson (Ho), proton (p), electron (e), and neutrinos (ν) are plotted along the Compton (⁠m∝r−1⁠) diagonal line. Among these, the top quark has the smallest Compton wavelength, because it has the largest mass: 173GeVc−2⁠. The smallest possible object is a Planck-mass black hole indicated by the white dot labeled “instanton” (Ref. 20). Its mass and size are (m,r)=(mp,lp)⁠. The smallest observable (not yet evaporated) primordial black hole (PBH) that could have survived until today has approximately the same size as a proton (Ref. 21). The large low-mass black dot in the SMBH (super massive black hole) range is the 4 × 106 solar mass black hole at the center of our galaxy (Ref. 22), while the more massive large black dot is Ton 618. The dashed horizontal line at m=mp emphasizes the orthogonal symmetry of black holes (⁠m∝r⁠) and particles (⁠m∝r−1⁠). Our Universe is represented by the “Hubble radius” and has a mass and size that places it on the black hole line, seemingly suggesting that our Universe is a massive, low-density black hole (Sec. III A). The black rectangle containing neutron stars (“NS”), white dwarfs (“WD”), and brown dwarfs (“BD”) indicates the size of the parameter space plotted in Fig. 3. Less comprehensive versions of this plot can be found at Refs. 20 and 23–28.

And it would imply companies that make lab-grown meat and animal products, which are often companies formed explicitly in support of environmental sustainability goals, also.

Wait, paying the Nazi’s back? Just don’t commemorate them and use that money for a good cause. Or even go ahead and use it towards an anti-Nazi cause. Just seems like worst of all worlds to be giving the Nazi the money now that you already have it.

Get help

Drop the conspiracy kool-aid and just try to evaluate the facts as they are presented. Very prevalent rape in India is not new and likely increasing.

Nice video. Yes caterpillars have a proto-wing internally before they pupate. But, as they say in the video, it’s a myth that they turn into goo in the cocoon. They don’t.

Without access to classified information, how can a distinction be made between “foreign assets” and US citizens that are suspected of working as “foreign assets”?

Don’t care what it’s called. I think what most people just want to know are:

• How effective is it?
• How safe is it?
• What is the risk without taking it?

Maybe skip the semantics

“Once again, Florida is the first state in the nation to stand up and provide guidance based on truth, not Washington edicts brain dead ideas.”

FTFY

I love how excited this guy is. He can barely hold back and keeps giggling. It’s so endearing I had to watch the whole thing. Very interesting.

Might as well add this to the pile of lies.

I’m just going to leave this here. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/he-lied-ohio-voters-struggle-after-trump-promised-jobs

If Toronto tries, learn from Vancouver’s failed trial.

I think I agree for the most part. Out of interest, do you think artists should be allowed to legally prohibit future iterations of AI art from using their original works for training?

The drugs selected to undergo negotiations are:

Under Trudeau? Has this not been going on for longer than Justin?
