i have to wonder if americans uh, get them confused with geese… Because geese can absolutely have a tendency to actively harass you, while swans don’t get close enough to interact with us in the first place.
Unless american swans are just suffering from lead poisoning like the general population?
it’s not like documentaries aren’t plenty popular, that recent series on dinosaurs (walking with dinosaurs, i think?) with our homeboy David Attenborough was hyped as fuck, no cap, on god, etc
oh yeah that makes sense
well yeah, obviously! You have to dilute it 1000 times for it to have any effect.
are we writing headlines or entirely unrelated short stories? come the fuck on
thank you for the reminder that i’ve yet to be fully assimilated into american culture, had no clue that was a thing over there
i saw a video of a system like that in action, guy left it running for a good long while and then dumped out a PILE of dead mosquitoes (and only mosquitoes)
what i’ve done is simply lower the power of my 2.4GHz network so i have reliable coverage in my apartment, but by the time i’ve walked 2 floors down my phone is utterly unable to even see the network.
super simple way to avoid polluting the local airwaves, though i presume it’s not really something you can do on most standard router interfaces…
here’s a version that doesn’t read like “live laugh love” and is actually helpful:
You do not need to be cleansed or detoxed. You need to eat more vegetables.
ah, maybe it only defaults to it on web
i honestly really like dymaxion because it’s a nice aspect ratio and keeping the landmasses all together just feels right.
And it doesn’t even look strange if you just remove the ocean
except that continents quite plainly aren’t just about landmasses, they’re defined by culture as well. Hence why most people these days consider “oceania” a continent, and why india and the middle east don’t really fit smoothly into any standard continent.
i mean, i’d say the lack of tube lines is the bigger issue
what? google maps absolutely has a globe view when you zoom out
to large parts of the world that’s just normal english, and implies absolutely nothing about ones fluency since we learn english in school and y’all have culturally colonized us to the degree that our fucking advertisements are in english these days.

my first thought was that it’s a euphemism, like the architects have to be smacked in the head pre-emptively so they stop making dumb designs
while “sabbath mode” does indeed seem to be real, i cannot imagine this is something that sees any serious amount of usage, and i’d imagine most rabbis would tell you it’s kind of silly because the point of sabbath is to not do work, and these appliances specifically exist so we don’t have to do work.
If you start considering “putting food in the microwave and turning a dial to start it” as violating sabbath, you quite obviously then also can’t go around turning door handles or using keys, or taking on/off clothes, or filling a glass of water, etc etc etc
yeah, we have some absolutely amazing art these days. i particularly love this type of depiction of dromaeosaurs: Just MASSIVE birds with teeth instead of beaks and huge claws, they feel very… cromulent…
