I love languages and am bad at capitalism. Focusing on Japanese and French right now but want to learn Korean and Mandarin next. I'd also like to learn some ancient Greek. 🤓 You can also find me in the fediverse @[email protected] 🖖

Last night someone stole all the eggs out of my fridge, but they left a saucepan full of warm water.
I think it was poachers.

If you didn’t see it: I wrote something very silly this week, about all the different versions of “Jingle Batman” that I accidentally collected in the comments on here a few weeks ago. It’s fun, and comes with a completely mad graphic. You might enjoy it!
If you did see it: give it a share maybe? 😘

For your collective delectation this holiday season:
Quite possibly the silliest thing I've ever written (and definitely the most ridiculous graph I've ever made!)

Is this what having a stroke feels like?
I don't think heterosexuals should date a straight man as a bisexual woman. I think when they do it they're reinforcing implicit colonialism of patio furniture.

hams radio operators describe how someone sends morse code as their "fist", which leads to some really gay phrases like "he's got a good fist, he's sending pretty fast too"
i would bet money you could detect gay accent in morse code

Where are the stories about the man? Is he also getting death threats? Are people questioning his ethics re the need to make a living?
OK I'm going to stop now but it's really fucking weird how people can't just go, "damn it sucks for this lady."

Unfortunately it’s quite believable
Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

From 1999 to 2000 world-class kayaker and science writer Jon Turk paddled a sea kayak from Japan to Alaska to prove that Jōmon people could've crossed the continents. He started from Nemuro in Hokkaido and arrived at St Lawrence Island (Sivuqaq) after stopping in the winter, showing it was possible.

We spent too much time at Christmas being concerned with how Santa can see what you're doing and we forget that your skeleton sees everything you're doing from inside you, too.

Also, I just don’t like being sick. So, please also think of those of us who don’t want to unnecessarily suffer while we quarantine ourselves inside the bedroom of a 1 bdr apartment.
Please stay home if you’re feeling sick.
If you absolutely can’t stay home, wear a mask.
There are people who can’t afford to get sick. People without paid time off, people who are disabled or immune compromised, people who are caregivers.
Help break chains of transmission

The thing about that thumbnail that's egregiously wrong, AI aside, is that it looks like it's supposed to be Amsterdam and if you're also orange pilled you know they know how to maintain roads during winter!

If I have to get in a digital queue, sign in or create an account, and then hope tickets are still available just to see the price of a ticket, that is too much work and I will not bother purchasing tickets. Sorry Ticketmaster, GTFO.
