A blessing, I guess, of the chronological timeline is that I can see that something is happening but I truly have no idea what. And tbh I’m ok with that.

That's German for "The p-value, The The The"

You look Australian (not derogatory but also derogatory).

I told my dnd group this and they pointed out that I was playing an idiot cat in our campaign so I am my own fursona.

Full disclosure. A couple of weeks ago, a gay I’d been hanging out with for a few hours said “so you know a bunch of furries, right?”. I may never recover.

Lots of straight people go sight seeing

Your weekend has clearly been too heterosexual. (Says the man who went to two tropical fuck storm concerts, which is approximately the straightest thing you can do in Bushwick)

You say that but it immediately reads “lesbian visited by circuit gays on a bad trip” to me.

Who you calling straight?

This performance is stunning and like I can imagine people who didn’t know what an absolute fuck-knuckle Hinch infamously is would think it’s staged. It wasn’t. She’s just that good. youtu.be/Or-0aIHtD2Q?...

The Passenger (also directed by @allthedeadboys.bsky.social, but less body horror more a straight thriller) is also excellent and you should watch it. Here’s the trailer, but also just watch the movie without the mild spoilers and enjoy it unfolding youtu.be/rBUYCbf3r4U?...

These models are very good at Python.

If you have Prime in the US (at least) Swallowed is a really excellent horror movie that’s on there now youtu.be/0WQ_2D-e7z8?...

If you designed your study aware of that confounded it would have, on average across realizations of the design, zero effect. So I’m not sure that’s a good rule of thumb

Yeah the explanation of 16a) here is more reasonable than the headline. Mostly because it explains what people should do with this information

Yeah. It’s the only thing I can think of though. Unless the diff is somehow useful. I’d assume the report would have a “why” section for that rec, but it that’s because i still have hope in my heart

If I was to guess, this would be to maybe aid meta-analysis down the road. But yeah. The implication that they should be headline numbers is … a choice.

Just softly, old Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds clips slap and I kinda can’t believe how much is recorded youtu.be/lncYnkSeNFc?...

Iconic behaviour.

Someone in this meeting is talking about fuzz testing and all I can think of is that old Bette Midler Soph joke:
“Hey Soph, you ever been pulled over by the fuzz? No. But I have been swung around by the tits a few times”

Now bring back Difficult People and we've got a stew going!
