King Chill was a roaming igloo.

Wordly Durdley is a Simpsons-Wordle game I made in under 1 hour.
Play Local Games was my first app.
(A better app, Hobiz, exists.)
“UK drum & bass artist Halogenix posted his concerns about the social-media landscape. ‘I refuse to participate in this relentless game of social-media-driven visibility… The insatiable appetite it creates to be constantly seen is destroying not only my mental health, but the core values and qualities of the [music] culture that I fell in love with.’”
I do not agree with the author. The book he cites references female competition with other females. He brings up #metoo, missing that #metoo was focused on exposing men. His analysis is wacky at best.
“Everything is shades of gray, but there are shades of gray so light as to be very nearly white, and shades of gray so dark as to be very nearly black. Or even if not, we can still compare shades, and say “it is darker” or “it is lighter.””
“But, as many commenters have pointed out and academic studies have shown, trying to eliminate hateful speech by removing individual actors or groups rarely has the intended effect.”
Are allergies caused by toxins, climate change, hate for our mothers or something else? Read this Wired post to not get a straight answer.
“We must face the fact that experts – even the best experts we can find – are often wrong or biased”
With only one-quarter of the sea floor mapped with sonar, it is impossible to know how many seamounts exist… The vast majority—more than 27,000—remain uncharted by sonar.
“Seeing how someone acts in real-time — and when they don't have the opportunity to curate or edit themselves — creates a much more authentic interaction."
Finnish group Käärijä was undoubtedly the fan favorite. The public vote confirmed what we all knew. Everytime they got on, the crowds cheered. Even when I make a first edit of this, I hear my neighbor singing it.
“assembly theory provides a consistent and mathematically precise account of the apparent historical contingency of how things get made — why, for example, you can’t develop rockets until you first have multicellular life, then humans, and then civilization and science. There is a particular order in which objects can appear.”
It was in 1557 when the Welsh mathematician Robert Recorde who introduced the equal sign. In “The Whetstone of Witte,” Recorde explainedhis choice of two parallel lines to represent equality, as “nothing could be more equal.” The symbol has since become universally recognized.
Oftentimes the defining difference between the protagonist and the antagonist is that the antagonist did not have enough pain tolerance and allowed the (unbearable physical) suffering in his life to drive him mad.
If you have learned to visualize fractions in a vertical format, you might find it challenging to read typed-out math that displays fractions in a horizontal format (numerator / denominator). However, with practice, most individuals can adapt…
Brenna Lip (@brennalip), a New York City-based content creator, posted a TikTok in which she admits to attending a surf-and-turf brunch at Columbia University despite not being a student herself. What started off as a harmless ruse, however, soon turned into an eye-opening look into “the hypocrisy of this whole place.”
Claims of Palestinian thobs and jillayehs undermine distinct Arab cultures for pan-Arabism. These claims amount to, “Well, actually, the warring Arab tribes all identified as Palestinians! [citaiton nonexistent]”
Comedy is delicate. So we ignore that everyone has retold someone else’s joke.
"Everybody has a pet thing they worry about and say, 'it's oral health' or 'it's suicides' – everyone has something that they're legitimately interested in and want to see more attention to," says John Haaga, who was the director of the Division of Behavioral and Social Research at the National Institute on Aging at NIH, before he retired. "The great value of an exercise like this one was to step back and say, 'OK, all of these things are going on, but which of them best account for these long-term population level trends that we're seeing?' "
The eight points above add up to a likelihood that black people will probably be underrepresented in a lot of weird subculturey nonconformist things. This is not a firm law – black people will be overrepresented in a few weird subculturey nonconformist things that are an especially good fit for their culture – but overall I think the rule holds. And that’s a big problem.
