  • Under no circumstance should you start diagnosing large swaths of the population with a mental disorder without proof. You definitely shouldn’t use a mental health disorder as a catchall insult (seriously, that’s how new slurs are born). And you most assuredly shouldn’t be labeling people with ODD when there is more evidence that have issues with defying authority, seriously can not overstate how much they ride their conservative leader’s collective dicks, rather than the opposite.

    TL;DR don’t use mental health disorders in order to church up your insults. It makes you sound like a massive ass and kind of demonstrates that you’re not a safe person. Any one who grew up diagnosed with ODD will not trust you and with good fucking cause.


  • LNT is wrong

    We know it’s wrong

    We don’t know how to get to a different model

    Let’s do nothing

    Like, to clarify, this is your argument, yeah? Wouldn’t “the highest levels we know don’t cause excess deaths” be a better standard? You could claim that that isn’t particularly rigorous, but neither is LNT. And it allows more movement than “We must spend every penny we can on radiation mitigation, regardless of harm reduction”





  • The dice tray, table, and carpet collapse under the dice, which are somehow now a single die

    The room tilts under your feet as the die becomes “down”

    You text your love ones, but get no response

    The light coming from outside becomes brighter and brighter as more light is entering the room than can leave

    Time slows as you begin to stretch towards the die, but can never seem to reach it

    The house finally gives way, shrapnel and structure falling into the die

    The night sky is blinding, more and more light getting stuck

    You’re floating now, like you always will be, stretching closer and closer to the die

    Your last thought is smeared across the rest of the history long after the last star goes out How the hell did that happen?

  • The one you grew up with tends to be your preference. But the usual reason I give for MM-DD-YYYY is it matches how it’s said.

    I also know there’s no point in arguing about this because, again, my first sentence. It’s just team sports stuff, as usual. The only reason why you would bother to argue is if you were trying to convince people to use a standard. But as you pointed out, ISO 8601 already exists. That is the agreed upon standard already. But no one uses it, since we have our preferred systems of date format already ingrained.
