This stupid show is basically “let’s throw mummies in the CT scan machine and see what we get” and “boy, look at how advanced the ancient Egyptians were with chemistry” and “omg Tutenkhamun’s parents were either brother and sister or first cousins!!!eleventy11!!!!” Like they just discovered that the Hapsburgs were not the only dynasty rife with cousin and sibling marriage.

Me: hey wanna see this video of Bayonetta cosplay?

My wife: Bayonetta is just a sexier Cousin It send tweet

Here are this AM's #COVID numbers from CDC.

Community transmission currently at high/red level and continuing to rise. New (reported) cases are up 300%+ in the last 8 weeks, and the rate of positive tests increased 10x in the same time.

I won't say more, but this is on my mind: it's so hard to hear about the people you know who seem the kindest being taken advantage of and treated cruelly. :(

Ever met a guitarist who's like "I can play every style because I'm trained in Classical"? This is legit how I feel with modern languages knowing C and BASIC.

Another day, another piece of software made with python that does not work. This is why I say you can't spell "python" without "y tho"

Is there any possibility to read #toots with automatic #translations?
I miss reading even #languages that I don't understand. @feditips ?

Last night, just as the Moon was totally eclipsed, the International Space Station flew over! I had a whole array of emotions - at first I was angry "fucking satellites are EVERYWHERE ARG" - then I realized it was the ISS, and remembered how I used to always look up when it would fly over and be excited. So then I was sad - we're totally losing access to this beautiful night sky.

Lunar Eclipse yesterday

That's my secret, I'm always airborne.

"wh" asks and "th" answers...

I'd asked / obsevered this some time back, can't find the thread:

Questions asked with "wh" words (where, when, what, ...) are answered with "th" words (there, then, that...)

With a few exeptions:

why -> th?? (how?)
who -> th?? (thou?)

Possibly:

wherefore -> therefore (substitute for "why" above)

Someone had chipped in with the linguistic explanation of this on the earlier thread as well. Which I'm hunting for again...
