Functionalism and its consequences etc.

Meanwhile, an entire US state is basically floating away from record-shattering hurricane storm surge.

The Invitation (2015) seems to fit the bill.

Is it close enough to / surrounded by enough land to develop currents, temperatures, and thermohaline circulation patterns that are distinct from the closest ocean? Then it’s a sea.

The paper looks to be a pure theory paper that contains no information on human trials. It’s frankly bizarre that they’re already selling this, and I’d recommend not buying it until it has passed human trials.

The immigrants, they’ve got beyond mil-spec tech. Real wiz chrome. We’re talking beyond delta grade folks. Never seen anything like it.

They have a vision of themselves as STEM geniuses, even though many of them have no real background in science or higher math. Because they think those are the only things that could possibly matter, it’s important that they signal that they know lots and lots about them, even if that knowledge is really shaky and not very sophisticated or deep. Using phrases like this is a kind of in-group signaling.

Self-deception is a hell of a drug, but high doses of psychedelics have a way of cutting right through it.

That’s the high temperature annealing.

His idea seems to be that psychedelics randomize your neuron connections (either metaphorically or, judging by some of the follow-up posts, possibly literally), and that if you’re an Alpha Tech Company Founder, that’s almost certainly going to result in worse performance because you’re already close to Ultimate Human Performance.

Analyze the situation. If necessary, start

Compressions. Check the

Airway and also manage

Breathing.

You’re not getting paid for this. You’re not even a volunteer. You’re doing this (presumably) for recreational purposes–because it makes you feel good. You don’t owe anyone anything. Disengage when you’re not getting what you want out of it.

I started this two days ago on your recommendation, and it’s great. I’ve read some of Mievelle’s fiction and enjoyed it, but was somehow unaware of this. Really enjoying it. Thanks, comrade.

One thing that I’m constantly forgetting about octopuses is that they have more than two limbs. Also, I am a super scientist.

Get yourself a partner who looks at you like RFK Jr. looks at rotting meat he found on the ground.

MST3K was so impactful on me growing up. That and Star Trek TNG were probably my two biggest media influences as a child. Still do my own Thanksgiving MST3K marathon every year. It slaps.

Mike is definitely the better host, even though he’s a chud.

On the one hand, fuck yeah. On the other hand, a “demand” from the UN is toothless as long as keeps supplying and endorsing the genocide.

That’s at least three 9/11s worth of pizza theft.
