    @futurebird we've been at war for decades. It's just that practically all the shooting and bombing is only done by one side. Even Luigi was a right-winger until the horrible usa health insurance industry impacted him personally. Even afterwards, there is still no evidence he shifted left in any other parameter.

    @futurebird most stephen king novels are terrible, but there are some really good ones, and one of the really good ones is about this topic, but from the viewpoint of a writer dealing with a superfan.

  • Every year teachers all over the US rehearse with their classes what they must do if someone decides to shoot up the school.
    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird I'm just barely old enough to remember nuclear drills, (and perhaps only because I happened to live in an area where they stayed around longer than in some places - it seems in many parts of the usa the drills ended long before the cold war did, or otherwise stopped and started for reasons I don't know. )

  • Tommy Mcrae's drawings are often viewed as an important window into Australian history...
    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird come on, there's only 10 or 20 thousand species of birds, and probably less than 100 that are "giant". Much easier than ants. Ok, I don't know them all either. Emu is just one of the few I do know. : )

    @futurebird the birds are unmistakably Emu. Very well done.

  • Jose Vega has announced that he will challenge my congressman Ritchie Torres.
    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird The LaRoucheies are climate deniers, fossil fuel industry stooges, and supporters of all manner of hard right nonsense. They haven't done anything "leftist" since the 1960s, and anyone who thinks they're still "leftist" has been living in a nonsense universe longer than I've been alive.

    @futurebird I am not willing to dismiss all movements as bad. Depending on the movement, loyalty to a movement could be a good thing, or at least compatible with good things, and in all but the worst cases (such as end-times religions), loyalty to a movement is far preferable to a PAC or an industry.

  • Thinking about how the human staff of any organization is an extension of their presence in the world.
    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird I think every tech company I ever interviewed with went to great effort to convince all prospective employees that they wanted everyone's job to be so great they'd brag about of their own accord.

    ... and all of those jobs were very bad jobs.

    there's a kernel of a good idea underneath it all, but capitalism attracts too many people who see it as just another way to manipulate people into yet another scam.

    @Wyatt_H_Knott @notoriousiptg @futurebird @stuartyeates @Quantensalat
    I think the ability to store sperm for long periods of time is moderately common in insects generally, but especially ants. But I don't know what they meant by "ancient drones".

    @futurebird @dhobern @stuartyeates @Quantensalat I'm not sure what it means either, but it does seem "only produces queens" is a caste-biasing phenotype, but since that's exactly one caste, it's an extreme end-member, at least to me. So biased towards a specific caste, there are no other castes.

    @futurebird @stuartyeates @Quantensalat I don't understand that part either. Maybe, by "prevent queen-only production" they are hypothesizing that without the M. structor sperm the queens could only produce queens, and not workers or males? I'm not sure that's what they meant, it's only a guess.

    it's been blowing my mind for days. But ... we all know branching points in evolution need to happen somehow, and we all know most of the hows are unknown. This is one of the hows.

  • So last week I was trying to get everyone I knew to salt the "Clear Insights" poll from Cuomo.
    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird prior to reaching university, I don't think I ever heard a conversation about lawyers that did not involve a "joke" of the following character:

    Q: what do you call a thousand lawyers dead at the bottom of the ocean?

    A: a good start

    I don't think the combination "corrupt lawyers" is random at all. It's chosen to work with preexisting sociopolitical beliefs

    llewellyL llewelly

    @futurebird in all honesty, as someone who grew up with scent range of the Great Salt Lake, even before you tried to salt it, that poll from Cuomo smelled like it was made from salt, and reeked of fish killed by thousands of kilopascals of osmotic shock. (Like every "clear insights" poll.)
