I once saw the Musical Box (Genesis tribute act) with my dad, and during the introduction to the Fountain of Salmacis, when the singer mentioned Hermaphroditus, a single dude clapped and cheered way too loud

University of Alaska Fairbanks student Graham Granger was arrested after allegedly eating at least 57 AI generated images from a campus art exhibit. The exhibit featured 160 images by fine arts student Nick Dwyer, and Granger was charged with fifth degree criminal mischief. [H/T: relewans]

Instead of saying “none of those words are in the bible” try to be a bit more inclusive with your language and say “none of those words are in the Critique of Pure Reason” or “none of those words are in the Science of Logic”

JD Vance: "Some of America's most elite universities bring in foreigners to undercut the wages of American residents. There are 9 universities in particular that we believe merit an investigation. Those are Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Brown, the University of Pittsburg, UC Davis, Cal Tech, Arizona State, and MIT."

These are probably some of the least cringe selections I could have chosen for this, which says a lot more about the other things left out of here, which are considerably more cringe

Since it is officially ✨German Idealist✨ Autumn 🍂 ☕️ — Who do you think is harder to be a scholar for? Do you think you are too dumb to do Hegel scholarship, but just smart enough for Kant or vice versa? Not saying either are easy or hard, but who do you struggle with more?

The most commonly rated “life-changing” interventions: - Doing math - More sleep - Weightlifting - α-Klotho - Oxytocin - Dihexa - Modafinil - Nicotine - Caffeine Personally, I’d add bromantane and semax to the upper-right quadrant too.
