Flying Spaghetti Monster says global warming, hurricanes, and natural disasters are a direct result of the shrinking number of pirates.

What more proof do you need.

@selzero what the heck is that chart

@adriano @selzero a really great example for p-hacking in the name of it's noodlyness!

If you're not too religious look up pastafari, if you are … you can still do, but it may hurt your feelings ;)

@selzero
I followed FSMism for a while but was ultimately seduced to Dudeism, abiding, white Russian drinks, taking it easy and of course: having a rug that really ties the room together, man.
@selzero 2026 is going to make or break this theory, as the entirety of the USMC are now pirates (or possible privateers, although I highly doubt Trump has the capacity to write a letter of marque).
@sleet01 @selzero Not a Presidential power, anyway, although the way the current white house counsel office seems to work is "draft the EO, inquire whether we're making up new authority later."

@selzero

I wonder if @fsm can expending this further? 😉

@selzero If I ever again need a example to show how to read statistics and graphs, I will use that, great 😁
@selzero correlation does not mean causation, as I told my stat students many, many times.

@thepdog yes but, how come there is something rather than nothing?

Checkmate.

All hail the flying spaghetti monster.

Ramen 🙏

@selzero do it properly! Have you ever seen an x-axis scale with positive numbers which goes from right to left?
