There is a certain sort of symmetry to someone saying "Dunning-Kruger isn't real" next to a Holden Caufield-themed avatar. #CatcherInTheRye #dunningkruger

@Travis_View Your most recent QAA was terriffic as always! Sometimes I wish you'd include links to the images you discuss so I can see what cursed images George Magazine is posting.

I can visualize the Flynn image because it sounds like a reference to paintings of St Sebastian. There was a famous Muhammad Ali picture with the same reference. The look you describe as confused was probably intended to appear rapturous by Renaissance painters. https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-photograph-made-martyr-muhammad-ali

The Muhammad Ali Esquire Cover That Inflamed America | Artsy

The infamous 1968 Esquire cover was published during a contentious time for Ali, and for America.

I'm seeing a lot of videos on YouTube about the brand new #ammoniafuelcell they came up with & I am thoroughly confused. The claims are that it's a dramatic reduction in greenhouse gases.

Am I missing something? Did those "This will be the End of Haber-Bosch, Says Increasingly-Nervous Man for the 7th Time This Year" processes actually get placed into production? Because otherwise, ammonia produces ungodly amounts of carbon because it needs ungodly amounts of electricity.

I just finished the #Discworld series! I'm much better for having read it, but sad in the end because I could see where Sir Terry might have taken the series had he not died when he did.

Here I am, famous carmaker. I didn't invent cars, but my factories changed carmaking so much that people think of me when they think of cars. Didn't invent that new process either but I stole it fair & square.

I think I'll buy the mass-communication medium of my day. That way people will get uncensored access to the vitally important messages of my favorite political group: Nazis

If I had a nickel for every time I bought a #Discworld novel I already owned, I'd have 20ยข. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened 4 times, right?
Thanks, article writer person

I baked pie #2 a week or so ago. It turned out so badly I was afraid to do a postmortem.

But lessons learned

- Don't cut frozen butter. Cut fresh butter & THEN freeze it, dumbass!
- Subbing 1:1 Everclear for water does not make dough. It makes slush.
- Blind baking for 15 min & then for the 45 min on the filling will burn alcohol-based crutsts
- You know that trope about pies cooling on the windowsill? Turns out pies really do need to cool. Who knew?

I walked into my local Wegmans & saw this. It's way more oppressive than I remember even Christmas decorations being. If you were someone who did not have a relationship but despeeately wanted one, how would it make you feel to see a giant banner proclaiming that everryone else had someone to "love to the moon & back" accompanied by a long line of buckets of roses?
