I know someone that met their long-term partner in the chat of words with friends.

EA is not a religion. Anyway, here are some pros / cons to marrying outside the religion.

...the less committed end of the EA spectrum (do you sneak dairy products when no one’s looking? fantasize about owning a yacht?)

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a yacht to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Also was I just shamed by someone who was in the environmentally horrifying bitcoin industry for keeping dry milk in my cupboard? No thank you.

For the win!

Most notably, he cropped the graph on the "ourworldindata" website - the annual average appears below all of those charts, and quite obviously line go up. I took his Sweden chart into excel and added a trend line just to make it all on one chart.

Behind the Bastards had a few episodes on how AI children's books are on offer at Amazon - also creepy and unhealthy.

holy crap, did anyone see the 404 article on ai-generated breastfeeding photos that "mom daily" is posting in order to avoid the nudity filters at Facebook? This one appeared with hashtag #Godisgood and #jenniferlopez because no one knows the purpose of hashtags anymore I guess.

Tangential to your tangential - nice to see that the moral compass of McKinsey associates is still true north.

By the end of the year, Elist was doing roughly 60 Penuma procedures a month, and his oldest son, Jonathan, left a job at McKinsey to become the CEO of International Medical Devices, as they called their family firm.

I'm now imagining populations of penis havers who scoff at the enlarged ones behaving like the Rolex aficionados who play "spot the fake Rolex" and get into all kinds of watch minutiae. Look at the telltale marks around the base - definitely enlarged, not like my 100% natural model, which comes 2.5 seconds fast per day.

To be fair, it was beautiful data. This is definitely the first time that reading about a gangbang made me want to subscribe to canva dot com.

At the risk of kind of picking around the edges here ... something caught my eye in #5:

Michael successfully alerted me to the fact that crime has risen by a factor of ten over the past century, which seems REALLY IMPORTANT and nobody else is talking about it and it seems like the sort of thing that more people than just Michael should be paying attention to.

This claim is ridiculous. The homicide rate in the US was something like 30 or 40 per 100,000 people in colonial times, reducing every century, and it's around 5 right now, since the increase from the 1960s - 1990s has gone back down.

Maybe, in the past 100 years, we have passed so many bajillion new statutes that it has increased crime tenfold, but that's not what the reactionaries are saying at all.

Eschewing the mainstream use of language and formatting is a sign of genius.
