If they vote third party then yes, I do think they're idiots or insane people. But I also have faith they'll make the right decision when election day finally comes.

A Democrat or a Republican is going to win either way. Only an insane person or an idiot would vote for someone with no chance of winning rather than for the candidate who will do the least harm.

There's a state park in Kentucky called "Big Bone Lick"

These days? Probably beige...

Did someone say [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]?

I feel like this could create some pretty toxic incentives.

Like, imagine if the moment a person dies all of their works immediately go into the public domain... What's to stop a company like Disney from just straight-up assassinating people who create promising IPs? They paid 4 billion dollars for Star Wars — but why not just have George Lucas murdered for a fraction of the price?

I don't know how it's possible, but they're somehow even uglier in person. It's wild.

Do you want to get chlamydia.exe?? Because that's how you get chlamydia.exe

Flat? Meaning all corps pay the same regardless of revenue?

Curious how they quantify 'attractiveness'. Is it self-reported, or are they attempting to use some kind of qualitative metric to rate the attractiveness of participants?

If the former, you could just as easily draw the conclusion that more confident people spend less time gaming.

I see what you did there

It will certainly be gratuitous...

That's for courts to decide ignore, peasant!

skee-dop, bah-dop

In scientific terms? An absolute fuck-ton of football fields.

In very next line, it says the distance is 4.37 lightyears away... which is also wrong, lol

For anyone wondering, the actual correct answer is about 4.25 lightyears or about 40 trillion kilometers.

Person says thing will happen "at some time".

Doctor Becky is awesome as well!

Also PBS Spacetime if you're looking for something with a higher production value and that dips more into the theoretical side of things.

Anton is the GOAT if you're into space. He basically spends all his time reading recent scientific papers and then summarizes them for a general audience without exaggerating or editorializing like you see with most other science reporting.

He's perfect for anyone with a deep love of science who wants to keep up with the very latest developments but doesn't have the time to keep up with the 'literature'.
