  • Well that's my attempt to understand a novel point of view for today... I can now hopefully say I'm no longer "ignorant", I simply disagree.

    Any word which describes something seen as negative takes on a stigma. Those sympathetic to the victims of the stigma will blame the word and insist on a new one. The new word gains the same stigma while the old one loses its original meaning and takes on a new one based entirely on the stigma itself. Rinse and repeat and we slowly build a lexicon of words which are problematic for reasons forgotten by society. A special few retain or rediscover the original meaning, and thus we have a perfect misdirection from the vast and growing wealth and power inequality orchestrated by our capitalist overlords.

  • Against the mangoes I can get my hands on? Most fruit is better.

    The best mangoes are the slightly tangy, firm, fibrous ones you can find in Australia. Those are absolutely unbeatable.

    Here in NZ all you can find are the sickly sweet, soft, smooth fleshed mangoes which just aren't the same. Might as well buy the tins of Kesar pulp imported from India.

  • For anyone still struggling with the intuition:

    How many times does a circle rotate if you roll it around a tiny dot? 1

    How many times does it rotate if you roll it around another circle the same size? Gotta be more than the dot, right?
