  • I think there's still a difference between describing a concept in a way laypeople would understand and describing it using plain English. The latter is what I consider good scientific writing.

  • Is it really science, if it doesn't sound like something Neil deGrasse Tyson would say to himself for 30 minutes straight in front of his bathroom mirror?

  • I think you're asking for a kind of nuance that most Info Warriors are unable to provide.

  • Up next on Info Wars: "They're turning the mosquitoes gay!"

  • Ah, gotcha. The podcast doesn't make it sound so drastic, but it goes in a similar direction.

  • That's not what I've heard. The movie's creator recently gave an interview on the The New Yorker Radio Hour, where he cited as one of the difficulties the film faced with financial backers and distributors that it included a scene of Trump raping Ivana Trump (a claim she later recanted under pressure from Trump's lawyers).

  • Great idea, surviving "da Bomb" could improve her street cred considerably.

  • If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life.

  • To paraphrase what Anthony Scaramucci said on the "The Rest is Politics" podcast: Most people probably come out of this debate thinking that Vance is the better debater, but if it's about who you'd trust with a job in the White House, most people would say Walz.

  • The logo in the bottom right is from a German satirical TV show, so "fake" is a good bet (dunno though, haven't seen it).

  • The crazy thing is: If he hadn't admitted this, there wouldn't have been calls for his resignation. The Republican party is fine with spreading harmful misinformation, but admitting to it is a no-go.

  • Doing the Lord's work. The longer I work in academia, the more radical I become about keeping it simple.

  • "The main goal of this thesis was to not be derivative garbage like the works of Big Name et al."

  • If I rotate this picture 180°, it looks pretty much the same as the one in the OP.

  • An elite 1.5 million.

  • Not really the same thing, though. I also wouldn't lick bacteria out of a petri dish, but I'll happily eat yoghurt and sourdough bread.
