My crazy sister has always hated my SIL. Christmas 2 years ago, SIL served filet mignon and had steak knives at each table setting. My sister freaked out that the steak knives were hers and that SIL stole them! She went around the table (we were still eating) and took all of our knives and then left

most AI startups have been doing a version of this, they’re just smart enough not to post about it
Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Checklists are materialist prayers and rituals btw. The recitation and the rote action reproduce a social benefit in effect and cultural transmission. That's the point of prayers and rituals in a spiritual/mystical/more context. These are some of the oldest human technology—possibly even the oldest.

i think about stuff like this wrt translating ancient languages where it’s like “we call this the uhhhh Dative of Unexpectedness? i guess? it was used two times ever and we’re not really sure why”
Seeing people write things like “on accident” (rather than by accident) makes my lexicography senses tingle. It seems on the one hand obviously wrong and yet clearly makes sense to the person writing it and I want to grasp why?

The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it

*crawling out of a well* in the book, Fiyero is a foreign exchange student from an isolated kingdom where he is trapped in an arranged marriage, and his secret relationship with Elphaba is his only glimpse of freedom
his characterization in the musical is one of the worst things about it

The only thing I will say about Wicked 2 is that I am fondly recalling my closeted 14yo theater kid self who hated Fiyero’s very existence with an all-consuming passion
