Oh I think you’re absolutely right there

Intrinsic value that can’t be taken away, except for by time/aging

I have this theory that movies do this on purpose to force scientists to come out and identify themselves, just like in that scene in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit"

I know there's a lot going on

But what the US is doing to Cuba is unconscionable

Utterly so. It makes me mad every spring

*whispers* it’s called capitalism. We could all have free file auto completed for us but intuit (turbo tax) lobbied hard against it.

I've interviewed more than a dozen hydrologists and climatologists across the West the past 10 days.

A sense of panic is starting to set in. Wildfires and water shortages will start mounting this summer. Adverse impacts are expected from not only this heat wave, but the historically warm winter.

Love when my boss brings up that she’s friends with the Padaleckis, but has never seen #Supernatural at the start of a meeting.

Like I’m not going to be lowkey distracted for the next 30 min? 😂

Ruben Ray Martinez: Footage shows US citizen shot by ICE agent in Texas traffic stop The Department of Homeland Security did not disclose Martinez was shot by one of its agents until almost a year later.

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.

"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

I've driven up and down Cermak road in Chicago so many times and I knew that it was named after a former mayor but I didn't know that that mayor, Anton Cermak was SHOT by an ASSASSIN who was trying to KILL FDR, but a woman standing next to the gunman grabbed his arm and he shot Cermak instead.

The right sounds may turn sleep into a problem-solving tool Lucid dreamers who heard puzzle-linked soundtracks while sleeping were more likely to solve those unsolved problems the next day.

Personally, I agree that adding the link didn’t give any extra context/use so I wouldn’t have done it but it still could have been an addition by their editor.

Also I believe the link has now been removed.

But also, the intro is too into the cultural moment of “why women be horny” and I do find that annoying. He could’ve started with a stronger thesis of: this sh*t ain’t new, yall just not paying attention and frankly it’s weird you don’t think about women having desire/agency.

I think the intro plays too much into the cultural zeitgeist of “why women do this?” But the actual content was a serious treatment of BL/MM history for those who aren’t in fan spaces. Like, I have lots of non fandom friends & this actually helps show how normal and established this history is.

I didn’t get the framing as it being gross, and I think he did a good job of citing both researchers & fans in the space.

Also, it’s not standard journalistic practice to ask for permission to share something that’s already publicly available. It also might have been his editor who added it.
