We know they follow a fractal pattern.
As do dinosaurs, which ate the big trees, and (in chicken nugget form) eat the small broccoli trees too
Nature is beautiful.

Midlife crisis, nervous breakdown, it’s all in the same spirit
BanMe@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Jerry Seinfeld says KKK is ‘actually a little better’ than Free Palestine movementEnglish241·2 days agoNot really related but I’m having the weirdest time because I got on FB for the first time in a decade, and learned an old friend has transitioned and looks to be much happier now, so I’m excited, but their feed is FULL of zionist propaganda and it appears her entire identity is wrapped up in this now, so accepting her request would be a time bomb. Fuck, why everything gotta be this way now.

Two hot shooters in a row? IDK what this means for fall and spring shooting trends, but I like it.

So yeah good call GOP
They are really in the shitter with ideas, they have a lot of levers right now, but they are truly staggering under their own weight. Their coalition isn’t going to last forever.
BanMe@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•RFK Jr. Blames violent video games for Mass Shootings.English3·4 days agoHis office leaked his plans to link video games to behavioral issues earlier this week, so he already had the press release ready, he just swapped some words around.
BanMe@lemmy.worldto Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Apparently Poland started shooting down drones that violate their airspace3·5 days agoAnd they’re not invoking article 5 of Nato which makes an attack on 1 an attack on all.
Instead, article 4, which is some navel-gazing shit about figuring out if there’s a threat.
Yeah I lived a car-free life when I lived in Seattle, working on Magnolia Hill, living on Capitol Hill. That was doable year round. The midwestern flyover states I grew up and live in, tho, no it’s not workable. In the North there’s snow for months, in the South we have monsoon season where it rains for weeks, in the summer heat index gets above 110 regularly and these people don’t plant shade trees. Plus nearest grocery stores are miles away (I live downtown in a capital city).
Even though I work a few blocks from my home, I can’t live car free here without significant ride-sharing expenses (the bus system is a joke and only runs part of the day, grocery shopping would eat an entire day of my week that way), if I did that I couldn’t go on roadtrips on weekends either, unless I rented a car - and all that is more expensive than my (20k, not 40k) car.
But I do love this community and it’s coastal approach to shaming people who rely on cars… take the tram or train, lmao

The periodic table is predictive. From a few elements, the rest could be projected and expected, like the Higgs-Boson. The table makes no predictions for things we cannot measure and are in fact theoretical, like dark matter which lacks any empirical evidence. Would be awesome if it did because then it wouldn’t be theoretical anymore.
BanMe@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There is no good reason why there is still homelessness and poverty2·7 days agoLook at game theory. We have 300m+ Americans operating primarily out of their own self-protection. They’re lied to about what that means. They are divided beyond repair.
3% of the US population protested in July, that wasn’t enough. What would be enough for a revolution you think? How would that go?

BanMe@lemmy.worldto movies@piefed.social•Finally, I watched Gremlins—a movie I somehow missed until now, even though it left fingerprints all over my life7·7 days agoI am 43 and just saw Die Hard for the first time last Christmas, I get it now.
Gremlins has always been a christmas classic. Gremlins 2 is good year round.
It works if you’re like 22 and have few responsibilities and much free time.
If you’re 44, fuck that noise, I got a routine to keep or everything will fall apart.
That shark is a cake, I can tell from here.
