Protip: Don't get the scrub daddy, the O-Cedar Scrunge is the highest rated sponge by virtually every chef and test kitchen for a reason, it's non-scratching but has one of the best scourers ever and will clean stuff up like magic compared to some inferior brands.

If you're an Australian like me, you can get the Vileda Pur Active which is seemingly identical (I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same company).

Good point, time to order some trans pride programming socks

This is exactly why I'm so goddamn happy I'm in a union, we fought off the fucking cunts and won. Secured significantly better conditions and guaranteed raises for several thousand people all in one go. It was a pretty narrow vote though, they literally hired a guy to generate internal propaganda about how good getting a pay cut was going to be...

I briefly worked in this area of physics, it's complicated and depends on your definition of a particle and which quantum gravity model you're talking about.

To simplify things you can just ask the same thing about non-quantum gravity. Why does gravity escape the black hole? The painfully mundane answer is that the black hole is gravity, it's not escaping itself. Gravitational waves can't be emitted from inside the black hole but that's because those are a form of radiation and not the structure of spacetime.

This is specifically important because even quantum gravity (the kind with gravitons) still has this distinction. Particles belong to a field and are excitations of it, the gravitational field itself is not made of those particles. The force associated with that field is mediated by gravitons, but what that really means is complicated and honestly possibly just the result of a cool mathematical trick. It also comes with a bunch of crazy behaviour where you have particles that can break the laws of physics by just kinda doing it so quickly that nature blinks and misses it.

The point is, the quantum gravitational field is enough for the black hole to do its job when objects come by, gravitons don't actually need to escape, though they are involved in complicated ways.

Pretty sure my inability to use a chair correctly is what makes me bi, thinking everyone is hot is just a side effect

I am trans and I can say I've never felt like I was in the wrong body, I think most of the time that's just a relatively flawed way to describe an experience that can't truely be understood unless you've experienced it.

Of course, no one has the same experience with these things and it's entirely valid if everyone else does feel that way. For me it's mostly just been that something felt like it was missing, and I fixed that when I began to transition. The main thing was how much happier the internal changes made me, estrogen changes how you experience emotions and being out to my family had a similar effect.

When it comes to "signs" the biggest was just being envious of people who had the freedom to express differently than me. I can confirm that it's a gradual realisation, though honestly most of that was overcoming shame and internalised transphobia.

It's a lot of effort to solve an issue that's already solved by being vegan so eh, I'm pretty indifferent to it at least at face value. If it can compete with a vegan diet in terms of climate and ecosystem impact then I'll support it but I've no interest in it personally. I don't really have any justification for not being interested, I'm just not.

I'd be much more interested in seeing artificial cheese made from proteins created by yeast or bacteria tbh.

Wait. Does he think this is a popular idea? Is there a majority of people out there who want worse working conditions???

I don't understand

HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE MOST AWFUL THING I'VE READ ABOUT CAN WE NOT PLEASE

Why can't we just fucking treat animals nicely instead of doing insane shit to them, I'm literally going to go and throw up now

Effective altruism is just capitalism camoflauge, it's also just really bad at being camoflauge

I'm more concerned about the fact that shitty companies will use this sort of thing to put graphic designers out of a job.

This isn't good progress. Even soulless corporate bullshit puts food on the table for someone, soon it'll just make another company a bit richer.

I had a fossil before I bought my Samsung, and it was a god awful mess. Barely functional, slow and honestly kind of ugly.

Still, a shame to lose more competitors.
