Neuroscience, biomechanics, paleontology. But I use social media mostly for fun, not science. Fact muncher.
Remember next time Republicans are pearl clutching about something their propaganda suggests killing democrats and gays is inherently justified by their beliefs
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

This one is the toughest I've seen. Now, probably alpha centauri wins with silent hill as runner up and honorable mention to AoE2, Torment, and system shock 2. Then Silent Hill probably would have won, and ff8 and chrono cross would have been higher up since I hadn't played most of the pc games yet.
Quote this with your favourite game from 1999 NOW, and what your favourite was THEN (if you had one)
Localisations/expansions count, remasters/ports don't. Remakes depend.
Two-way ties count.

I know its all just marketing but as a scientist I've tried to use LLMs for 'deep research' and they just make up citations and misstate what sources say, meaning they fail at the most basic task of research. Everybody sees that they get the overall shape about right and assume that equals research

Finally an answer to that 'my least woke opinion' thing that was going around. It should be illegal to have fonts that make different characters look identical.

I'm sorry you are correct and I am an AI assistant. The amount of coke-- jargon for the tropane alkaloid cocaine-- you have just taken before your public appearance is not excessive and will make you look very normal and smart.

I teach a normal population of college students. Extra time doesn't help you if you didn't study. Recording lectures doesn't help if you don't watch them. Accommodations do not turn college into easy mode and students succeed and fail without them just as students succeed and fail with them.
I think filling the top ranks of our education system with people who got there in part by abusing a system designed to help disabled people will select morally deficient people for leadership positions in our society and is worth taking steps to avoid bsky.app/profile/padr...

the primary thing that TPUSA provides to young conservatives is a blueprint for weaponizing the abject cowardice of university administrators against individual teachers and instructors, and university admins should take a long look in the mirror and think about what that says about them

All of bluesky are but plain, simple tailors
It’d be exciting to think that Bluesky has people pretending to be American like Twitter but I honestly don’t think they could talk about Star Trek Deep Space 9 the way it’s expected here without having watched all the episodes a dozen times

Public libraries are fucking awesome, and something we should all be proud this country actually decided to do. With so much terrible history, this is an unmitigated good, and librarians are a pretty amazing example of what public service can be. Give them love.
Some people don't know this so it's worth saying out loud that Public libraries are free to use. And even if you have never used a library, the librarians at your local library will be very happy to see you and help you get started.

I have to say that obviously this admin was going to be corrupt but the level of corruption is still gobsmacking
