In rust we trust!

😭😭😭

I don’t feel like I’m having fun here…

What does the ‘B’ in Benoit B. Mandelbrot stand for?

Benoit B. Mandelbrot

And let’s not even get into the labelling of the UK and Ireland as one country… We still haven’t sorted out the mess from last time.

Yeah but you try saying ‘ununderstandable’ after a couple of drinks

How about carpet beetles and clothes moths?

Thank you for writing this out.

Nah I’m not a fan of advocating for rape as punishment. It’s pretty, erm, rapey.

Do you wear them every day? Ideally you should give all footwear a day of rest to let the bacteria die off. Possibly more if you live somewhere humid.

I’m getting spork vibes. Nothing is new. This too shall come to pass.

I see Orion as a jaunty little disco dancer in this. Arms up in the air, legs apart, hip stick out to one side.

I think people are missing that this is the 2nd most taught foreign language, not the 2nd most taught language. So there’s the native language, then the most taught foreign language, and then the 2nd most taught foreign language. I’d imagine for quite a few countries that English is the most taught foreign language, particularly ones that heavily rely on tourism.

Edit: just noticed it even says that in the text on the right.

I probably didn’t have as good an education as the highest educated classes in most ancient Egyptian dynasties.

I use Bandcamp instead of Spotify now, because that’s what most of my musician friends use to sell their music and recommend as the best way of supporting artists directly, and some of my favourite current artists are active on there. Yeah I can’t just stream and make playlists of whatever I want, and it’s more for new music than older stuff, but I can scroll through and play the suggested tracks which are far more interesting and diverse than anything Spotify would suggest to me, and then I can buy the stuff I really like. I’m slowly building up enough stuff that way to have an interesting collection on my phone to listen to, and it’s also introduced me to some really cool music that I wouldn’t have heard about from Spotify.

My late partner studied English as an undergrad and when he applied for his MA his email said “Please find attached my application for the MA in Creative Writning” and it makes me sad he’s no longer around for me to relentlessly mock him about it.

Oh is that why Marie Antoinette said “let them eat cake”

Oof

ITT: people who know nothing about and have no interest in archaeology and paleontology arguing why this doesn’t matter. You guys do know you’ve wandered into an Archaeology thread, right?

That grass is so lush and green I was convinced it was a fluffy rug and that you’d picked the mushroom and brought it indoors
