Appropriate outfit for a concert?

I agree with you. I would add though that many of those inappropriate reactions probably only happen online. I struggle to believe a crowd of people could laugh at someone mourning a death.

I would never laugh at a person's death.

That's bizarre.

We found a gorgeous jellyfish last night while dockfouling and after much chasing, we were able to catch it to look at it closer. It's possibly a young fried egg, but the species is undetermined. And it had adorable hitchhikers!

Linearisation is so cool.

I love learning and after math, for me, comes languages. Duo has its issues, don't get me wrong, but overall I really have come to appreciate this app.

Oh yes. We need more minerals.

I turned AI "features" in Overleaf off immediately. It was beyond annoying.

It makes sense that you wouldn't say anything -- well-explained! This doesn't seem very difficult for ARC to fix....

WE GOT IT! Hooray! It's been a long time. My heart goes out to all those who were unsuccessful, and I feel beyond grateful that this time we made it.

It *really* sounded like they were hinting at DP grant outcomes. That was confusing, because didn't we hear recently that embargo isn't happening?

I was really hoping for outcomes today. We heard from an executive who was delivering bad news that there was "good news coming" and mentioned that it was "under embargo". Beyond frustrating!

This is SUCH a good idea!

Finally decided to join BlueSky. I didn't realise that many had already started to use it... "X" has indeed become worse and worse.
