Eh, I still find it dubious. I read your sources, but the only element of them that seems to clinch it is Kean’s claim that it would take about two years for Caesar’s last breath to be distributed across the globe. Maybe I’ll get around to reading his book, as it does sound fascinating, but until I have I’ve got only…

“There are more molecules of air in one breath than there are breaths in the atmosphere. That means that every breath you take probably contains at least one molecule of Newton’s last breath.”

It’s still happening today. There are people walking (or wheeling) around today who were taught to spell “tomorrow” as “to morrow” in grade school. I think “a lot” is headed in that direction, despite the protests of many strict grammaticists. Personally, I’m good with dropping the space and spelling it as “alot,”…

I had never even heard of “upmost,” and had to look it up. For what it’s worth, I found a reference to it in a grammar guide from 1867. So for others who, like me, may have been thinking that this was some new stupid form of unnecessary word-shortening, be advised that it’s actually an old stupid form of unnecessary…

LOL. Definitely not the red wire. That’s almost always power. Black is fairly universally ground. To be safe, I’d just cut everything but red and black. But I think for USB there should only be four wires, and data is usually green and either white or blue. That’s based on remembered experience from the USB 2.0…

For that same $7 you could buy this cheap portable power bank which does the same job, can also provide a little extra power away from an outlet, and has a built-in flashlight.

What if they had just called it a fastback instead?

We’ll just ask David not to write a story about it. If it stays in the comments, no one will ever know. ;)

As a feminist with dangly bits who hasn’t read any of these authors (probably just because I don’t read enough) I rely on Jezebel among other sources to guide my perceptions. Given the aforementioned lack of knowledge, I’ll refrain from contributing to this discourse, but I want to note that I do hope you’re steering…

I believe so. I haven’t actually used it yet. I’ll let you know.

Three months is plenty of time to finish The Outer Worlds, right?

I’ve got a much better proposition for you. Sign up for ESPN+ first, for $5/mo. Then sign up for the bundle, and get ESPN+, Disney+, and Hulu for $6/mo.

Oh yeah, that’s not how I was reading it. I agree, forcing kids to stay until five when they have a parent ready to take them home would be bad.

That’s exactly what this bill is. It just seeks to achieve this using the public schools themselves, rather than through the sorts of private business tax credits that Republicans love to pass as a solution to everything, which inevitably ends up with people abusing said loopholes and neglecting or downright ignoring…

The most challenging escape room in my city requires a secret technique to even get in. What you have to do is get something heavy and smash the rearview mirrors off of a police car. Then someone will come and take you to the escape room. Bonus, if you manage to get out, they will chase you and try to put you back in.…

Haven’t tried that one, but I actually use BRU for TV series frequently. It might be my most common usage, if not my wife’s digital photos (DSC_0497, DSC_0498, etc.).

BRU, bruh.
