I don't understand the utility of reusable straws. Why dirty another utensil just to drink from a cup? Just pick up the cup and drink??
Silicon Valley should look like Shenzhen but instead it looks like shit

I think reincarnation would be better if you got to choose what you got reincarnated as, and the extent to which you get to choose is based on how good you were in life. Like if you were the best person in life, you get first dibs on what you get reincarnated as, but if you were kinda shitty in life, you just have to pick from what's left over where there's still space that other people didn't choose
People who are "anti-capitalist" but not socialist are like the "spiritual but not religious" of left-wing politics
Not all who wander are lost, but I think most who wander are lost
So, condemning everyone who uses AI is the new purity test for some bubbles now. And it this binary approach makes me sad and scared.
I have seen so many of these rules to define in-groups. You are eating animal products? How can you, killing the climate. You are not using the exact expected set of content warnings? How can you be so ignorant. You are shaving your legs as a woman? How antifeminist of you. You are using a car? How can you justify all the bad impact of this.

It looks like the ⍼ saga has finally ended!
The unicode character '⍼' was a mystery first noticed in 2022: https://ionathan.ch/2022/04/09/angzarr.html. It's in the Unicode standard as a mathematical symbol. But no one could find any examples of it having been used, and no one knew what it represented. It was like the only record of an extinct species, fossilized in the Unicode standard.
But now someone has found the document it originally came from! It represents the angle 'Azimuth', and the symbol probably comes from the path light takes through a sextant. https://ionathan.ch/2026/02/16/angzarr.html
(@johncarlosbaez might appreciate this symbol!)
