Why! Is no one awake?
I'm starting an insomnia club. Hey, it's nearly 4am. Some people are waking up around now. Me, I just want that last energy tank between Phendrana and Magmoor. Three successful morph bomb jumps in a row? Right. Screw the 100%, I just need it to beat that omega pirate. | | 11:50 am |

Hey, is the politifact truth-o-meter any good? I just bumped into it online and, well, it looks kinda cool but I've never heard of it before and have no time to investigate just now. | | 10:30 am |

FYI: the last line is a joke. No organs were harmed in the making of this post.
I think I'll make soup. I think I'll use black pepper. Black pepper is boring. A lot won't be boring. I think I'll use half of the jar. I think it'll be fun and cool. ... HOLY BALLS It's like getting Kicked in the Teeth! It tastes like flammable grain alcohol. Fire! It burns like 190 proof ethanol. Hey! I have an Idea (tm). I should make jello shots with this. Not making jello shots is boring. I think it'll be fun and interesting. ... (to be continued, when I get out of the hospital) | | Monday, July 6th, 2009 | | 10:35 am |

Nothing unreal exists.
"A man wants to commit suicide but does not want to cause his family any grief. He finds out about an elixir he can take which will kill him, i.e., separate his soul from his body, but leave his body intact to wake up, go to work, play with the kids, keep the wife satisfied and bring home the bacon. But before he takes the elixir, a well-intentioned friend sneaks in during the night and injects his suicidal friend with the stuff, thereby killing him, i.e., releasing his soul. The man wakes up and doesn't know he's dead (i.e., that he has no soul), so he takes the elixir. He can't kill himself, since he's already dead. But he thinks he can kill himself and become a p-zombie. However, he is already a p-zombie. Question: if the p-zombie can't tell the difference between a real person and a p-zombie, why would we think that we real persons could tell the difference? In fact, since the conception of the "soul" makes absolutely no difference in either the nature of a person or a p-zombie, the concept of the "soul" is superfluous. If persons are indistinguishable from p-zombies then they are not two distinct concepts, but one concept manipulated by language to mislead us into thinking there are two distinct concepts here." -- http://www.skepdic.com/zombies.htmlMean average is not all you need to know.
The four dice A, B, C, D have the following numbers on their six faces:
* A: 4, 4, 4, 4, 0, 0
* B: 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3
* C: 6, 6, 2, 2, 2, 2
* D: 5, 5, 5, 1, 1, 1
P(A=4)=2/3 P(A=0)=1/3 P(B=3)=1 P(C=6)=1/3 P(C=2)=2/3 P(D=5)=1/2 P(D=1)=1/2 P(A<A)=2/9 P(A<B)=1/3 P(A<C)=5/9 P(A<D)=2/3 P(B<B)=0 P(B<C)=1/3 P(B<D)=1/2 P(C<C)=2/9 P(C<D)=1/3 P(D<D)=1/4 If your opponent is rolling die A, you should roll D. If your opponent is rolling die B, you should roll A. If your opponent is rolling die C, you should roll B. If your opponent is rolling die D, you should roll C.

irreversible competitive receptor antagonist - binds to receptor but zero activation efficacy and won't leave. reversible competitive receptor antagonist - binds to receptor, zero activation efficacy, will leave. partial receptor agonist - binds to receptor with limited activation efficacy. physiological agonist - doesn't bind to same receptor but affects the body as if it had activated it. physiological antagonist - doesn't bind to same receptor but affects the body as if it had disabled it. ... ah, well.

my life...
has value. so does yours. it's a neat thing, to figure out. but no one should have to. | | 6:18 am |
I'm too libertarian. I think of things in terms of Alice did X to Carol and Bob did Y to Carol. When the reality is, Alice and Bob created a climate where they both felt safe doing X or Y to Carol. My mantra of personal responsibility fails against groups like Blackwater. So when Blackwater commits crimes against humanity, who do you hold accountable? Blackwater will never tell me who was individually guilty. So... I blame the people who won't tell me? Of course we can convict the CEO and major owners. They're punishable whether they knew details or not (due diligence, see: not). But we need to convict the middle management, too! How do you punish a culture? I'm just not equipped for this kind of dilemma. --- different subject: Anti-intellectuals suck. When someone who doesn't want to know meets someone who does know, it's a disturbing thing to watch the excuses fly. | | Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 | | 12:02 pm |

OMG, literally. I just heard from a fellow cult survivor
from the Exact Same cult (Donald Slater). I mean, we knew each other and everything. We were friends! Fifteen years ago. Blast from the freaking past. 105 minutes on the phone later... --- okay, clarification is required. Donald Slater is not my friend. Donald Slater is who we survived. | | 2:32 am |
Eble...
Unu el la reguloj de la bela ludo de la Scienco tekstas ke la Racio ne devas akcepti ion kiel certa nur ĉar ĝin diras multaj, aŭ ĉar ĝin diras tre gravaj homoj, kaj ke ĉiam endas halti antaŭ iu ajn aserto kaj dubi ĉu ĝi estas certa aŭ ne. Kompreneble, tio devigas iri multe pli malrapide, pesante ĉiun ŝajnan veron.
En la helena lingvo, observanton oni diras skeptikós (skepticos), pro kio personon partianan de la analizo kaj observado oni ankaŭ nomas "skeptika".

OH DAER SWEET NO NO NO ((how overdosed am I?))
 Created by OnePlusYou - Free Dating SitesHere's the punchline. I haven't had caffeine in /days/. Half-life in a healthy adult is 4.9 hours. So at ten thirty I had two delusions of godlike power. Around midnight I had eight. So when I had caffeine three days ago... edited to add: Thanks you ravenofdreams for scarring me with this quiz today. :) I'll put you in my will or something. Speaking of that, I better hurry, apparently! | | 1:54 am |
Cheese! for toxic_iguana
In the beginning, there was macaroni. Kraft. Ew. I don't like milk, and I don't like processed food, and I don't like that orange powder that's supposed to be cheese sauce. Then there was pizza. Mozzarella and cheddar. I can stop anytime I want. But gimme more cheese first. I could eat that stuff frozen. It's good raw. When golden brown on top of marinara? Yes. The answer is always yes. Then I discovered american process-cheese-food singles, which might be even worse than kraft macaroni. It's like somebody took that orange powder, watered down, flavored with glue, poured on linoleum floor, and let it dry in the sun. But I always wanted to make cheese sauce, like Homer's fondue or something. Well, the ancient Greeks could do it, but I can't. Point of interest: Mozzarella doesn't work in a sauce. Otoh, string theory goes well. Colby Jack, maybe. I'll try Cheddar-Swiss next time. But we don't have wine (we drink it too fast) and I hear that's important. I could throw mozzarella cheddar and noodles in a casserole and bake, but that takes time and life is short! How do you use cheese in a soup? Then I had something amazing. It had... some tropical fruit in it. Papaya or mango? It was white and smelled english. It was crumbly. I want more. Maybe munster or wensleydale? I can't find it anywhere. I don't even know what it is. Provolone and Parmesan make a good team but that powdered stuff in a plastic jar is no match for the real thing. I don't know what they did to it, but it was hardcore. Bricks are better. Shredded is okay. These days, it's Colby Jack for me. Cheap, good, versatile, never gets old. | | Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 | | 1:57 am |
