Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

My favorite classic D&D (and Gamma World) artist!

This is what happens when you don't cognitively surrender.

I really like that term, "cognitive surrender", since it describes that part of your brain is not only going dark, it's given up.

This is not wrong.

Q: Why weren’t faculty consulted?

A: On the contrary, Skynet was trained on an extensive archive of pirated humanities articles—hence its misanthropy, overuse of the em dash, and proclivity for always already predictively adding “already” after “always.”

OMNI Magazine Archive : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive Omni was a science and science fiction magazine published in the US and the UK. It contained articles on science, parapsychology, and short works of science...

Omni was up there for me, too. My dad had a subscription, so it came right to the house! Beware, Graeme, this is a thing that exists:

We regret to inform you that our plans for the day have been absolutely, irrevocably, completely derailed

Yep, these stayed down once rubbed down! I think you are describing Colorforms, which also has a huge number of sets, but usually had less realistic color.

Fox Business Headline: Trump admin to begin refunding $166B to businesses in wake of Supreme Court decision Companies can begin filing claims through a new federal system

New York Times headline: Trump admin to begin refunding $166B in tariffs.

So, all the businesses that passed on tariff costs to American consumers, now getting government refunds for those same costs? Refunds should go directly to consumers who actually ended up paying those tariffs. Instead, companies are getting to double-dip. Consumer prices will not suddenly go down.

Wow! As the kid of a pencil-wielding architectural designer in the 1970s-80s, Letraset letters were part of my life, so when I got some of these Star Wars sets, they made total sense! I even had access to a burnishing tool!
I have an unopened D&D set someplace.

So much great stuff, but all the things on my personal wish list are all sold out 😟

This magazine is responsible for about 10% of why I am who I am today.

Glad it went so well, Orcus!

Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?
