Good vibes and occasional hot takes. Nature, science (-fiction), fantasy, and games. Trying to avoid doom&politics but I'm not perfect. Other random stuff.

I'm confused about "autism treatments/interventions" being on the "least important" end, especially vs improved support being super important. Are respondents saying "current treatments are good enough, stop working on more/better ones"?

Please spare a thought for art history in particular. Where do y'all stand on modern art vs contemporary art?

How liberal we talking? Church-sanctioned gay marriage, or just a lukewarm "I'll leave Francis' legacy alone"?

I'm very curious to see how the new pope approaches Francis' more controversial policies. Will he uphold and champion a more progressive ideology, or pump the brakes and and backpedal to more traditional dogma? Share your predictions!

Panel 1: Trump shouts "you don't have the cards!" as Zelensky throws scissors to cut Trump's paper.
Panel 2: Zelensky responds "I'm not playing cards", throwing paper to cover Trump's rock.
Panel 3: Zelensky's rock breaks Trump's scissors.

Thanks Capitalism, for making the market so efficient, the syringe transforms into a wet noodle halfway through my kid's antibiotics course.

Entrepreneurship is not risky.

You know what is?

- Working a job you hate
- Spending time with people you don't like
- Working on problems you don't care about
- Getting out of bed without a smile on your face

Your regular reminder Delft’s market square was a surface parking lot as recently as 2004.

A razor-thin coalition (19-18 votes) initiated a six-month pilot to help merchants realize cars don’t spend money, people do.

Years later, no one remembers the controversy or regrets the decision. *Sound on*

Trump signed an order that defined everyone as female based on a poor understanding of biology; I do not grant him the rank of Mister.
