My copy of volume 1 is signed!

I mean, mostly, main counterexample is that Manuel_D guy who is spouting debunked TERF talking points, e.g. he thinks the Cass Report hasn't been shredded. I think it helps that th…

I lost interest in psychedelics after transitioning.

I got my pilot's license in the Bay Area and transited SFO's class bravo frequently. The region has one of the world's most complex airspaces (a B, two Cs, and a crap-ton of Ds), a…

IDK if y'all know this, but this is 100% due to kiwifarms/keffals. Of course the doxxing and swatting on kiwifarms is not limited to keffals.

It is not "less clear" how this applies to Kiwifarms. Their TOS says they "may" remove content that: "Is otherwise illegal, harmful, or violates the rights of others, including con…

I dunno man. The Russians impoverished East Germany.

Michael Pollan just wrote a book about psychedelics, including the studies that show efficacy around reducing the anxiety of terminal illness. https://www.theguardian.com/books/201…

No mention of the Tron soundtrack ... I guess it didn't "change music" but I really liked her compositions.

The standards are lower there ;)

I wrote an in-browser CAD tool for theater lighting and sound design: https://drafty-app.com/ . I have a partner who does that for a living. We've just hired (part time, 5-10h/wk) …

The taxes deferred as a lien, but the lien accrues 8% interest. If there's any value in the house, it would be cheaper (at current rates) to refi and pay out of that.

My wife had a tumor on her pituitary gland. Four different MDs came up empty on her symptoms. The fourth doctor ran the right endocrine system test, but was only able to conclude "…

Just like, say, Norway. Oh wait, Norway has the highest standard of living in the world.

I've looked for tech jobs in Eugene and found virtually nothing. The only tech workers I know there have remote-work jobs in bay area companies.

Rice or UH?
