  • It's not good to talk about this openly because you can attract its attention by saying its name. But there's an Algonquian spirit matching the monster in the comic. You can probably find it by googling "Algonquian myth hungry spirit". The way white fiction writers have appropriated it as a symbol of "evil native american culture" is disgusting. This is a much better example that doesn't use the monster as a cheap exoticised gimmick.

  • The only scientifically accurate scene in Jurassic Park has a little boy say the velociraptor looks like a turkey. They knew dinosaurs were chickens, they just didn't bother showing us in movies.

  • We can manipulate the dems to our own purposes. But in order to do so, we first need to admit that the dems are fucking stupid and can't take hints.

    AOC has the right idea, she's speaking their own dumdum language to manipulate them into not sucking.

    "Aren't you tired of losing all the people you love," I said to the fellow immortal

    "No," he said. "I've grieved a thousand times. I'm very good at healing now. A good therapist helps."

    "Oh." I wondered why I'd never tried that.

    Video game characters should swear when they get hurt

    Forget the grunts and moans. When a mudcrab attacks my character, I want to hear "god fucking dammit" and "fucking shitbiscuit" from my character. That's how people actually sound when they get hurt.

    Harry and Ron were always bored in class because Rowling's magic system is boring as hell

    A lot of people point out that it doesn't make any sense that Harry and Ron didn't like their schoolwork. Well I figured out why:

    It's because the magic system is just as boring in-universe as out of universe. It doesn't make any sense in universe either. Harry and Ron realised Rowling's magic system kinda stinks way before we did, because they spent all day learning it.

    If Sanderson had been writing Harry Potter, then Harry and Ron would have liked learning magic as much as Hermione did (Also, Sanderson actually DID write a book about a super-school, it's called Skyward, it's good)

    How fast can the body absorb vitamin B12?

    Let's say I'm vegan and I need to take vitamin B12 supplements to be healthy. Furthermore, let's say I have ADHD, I forgot to take them for a month, I feel like shit, and while I know to take them now, there's no guarantee I'll remember tomorrow.

    If I were to take 2 tablets today, an amount which I surely need, would my body actually absorb all the B12 it needs, or would I piss out the second tablet? Do I have to wait until tomorrow to absorb the nutrients my body needs now?
