Charmeleon! Wartortle,

Mewtwo, Tentacruel, Aerodactyl,

Omanyte, Slowpoke…

That’s all I’ve got. I will shed a single tear in remembrance of happier days.

Wearing super preppy clothes to school/college. I was mistaken for a teacher in 11th grade. In college, I once wore a pencil skirt, black tights, white sweater, and high heels… to a regular Tuesday afternoon class, just because I wanted to.

In the crafting world, these are called orts. And some people get super creative with them! I’ve seen them user to decorate cards, to make collage art, to fill little clear Christmas ornaments or felt animals, etc. I’ve been saving the ones from my current project because I want to take a picture of the finished cross stitch next to all its orts. It feels like a visual representation of “you can’t make omelet without breaking a few eggs”, you know?

The reasoning behind the API changes, the CEO’s entitlement, the ever-more-annoying interface changes (I hate the “More Posts You May Like”, the algorithm is pathetically shitty).

I refuse to install apps to navigate websites. If your site is decent, it should work in a browser. If not, I’ll just go elsewhere.

Gotta love oligotrophy. Some lichens grow inside rocks… definitely can’t replicate that in a lab (although not for lack of trying).

Cyborg-like implants. I want titanium joints and UV vision and magnetic field sensors and charging my phone by laying it on my belly. Uncap each finger to reveal a small tool: screwdriver, USB key, cutting blade, etc.

Note that none of that includes or requires a constant connection to a network/internet. I want to augment my interactions with the real world, not replace them with a virtual world.

No scholar would ever tell anyone else to become a scholar. More like “Run! Run while you can! Get away from this cursed existence!”

These sets of concentric shells contain a thin layer of positive mass tucked inside an outer layer of negative mass.

So how much evidence is there for negative mass, then? Sounds like just replacing one unknown with another.

Damn this one’s good, I only noticed when scrolling back up.

And leeches. Can’t forget the leeches.
