Sometimes the obvious thing, the right thing, and the smart thing are all the same thing
Don’t underestimate the power of the Cleve. But honestly there’s a decent shot it’s the Miz.
UFC weight classes go, in part:
Flyweight (125lbs)
Bantamweight (135)
Featherweight (145)
Which means a feather is heavier than an fly and also there’s something called a “bantam” that weighs somewhere in between a fly and a feather

I’ve found that when making decisions about where to “buy” digital media, I default to Amazon or Apple because they’re likely to be around the longest. But I realize that even pressing buy means I’m renting it for $20 for an indefinite but plausibly finite amount of time.
This is why I don’t make fancy cutting end grain boards in my wood shop
The years start coming, I’m told, and they don’t stop coming
I’m hearing rumors about a “new year”, do we really want another one of these things?
I usually root for chaos because chaos is funny. But in this case the chaos means a likely Saban happiness, and fuck that guy
Here’s the longer video.
The Simplest Math Problem No One Can Solve - Collatz Conjecture
The Collatz Conjecture is the simplest math problem no one can solve — it is easy enough for almost anyone to understand but notoriously difficult to solve. ...
youtu.beand at least according to this video, many mathematicians consider the problem to be so hard and frustrating it’s only for the most masochistic of their lot.
It blows my mind that larger numbers can and apparently at least sometimes do behave differently and obey different rules.
They’ve brute force tested this to 2x10(36). But what’s wild to me is this conjecture, as it’s called, is considered barely tested. There’s so many more numbers upward, and math folks think it’s possible that higher numbers might just be weird and disobey.
Watched a long video the other day about a math problem called, among other things, 3x+1. You take any whole integer, multiply it by 3, then add 1. If the result is even you divide by two. If odd, 3x+1. Continue next number and next. Eventually, ALL numbers end up shrinking down into a 4-3-2-1 loop.
Yeah. But I have to cut wayyyyyy back on caffeine which has come with severe headaches too lol
So much! I feel 100x better now that I’m taking probiotics and benefiber.
Taking 6 antibiotics and 6 probiotics a day has made me the Most Biotic Man Alive
Don’t know. The thought of replaying just occurred to me. Need to buy it for my ps5.
I’m gonna finally play New Vegas all the way through. Games that present you with irreversible choices in the narrative play havoc with my anxiety, so I never got past picking a side. But I’m stronger now.
We can’t make pasta in my house without either me or my wife saying “please. My wets” and then dying of laughter
I don’t really miss drinking but god I miss bartenders, especially taciturn ones
At the bar a guy was talking about his idea for a wacky, charcuterie-themed D&D campaign. He was talking about cheese wizards, like cheddar sorcerers and feta disciples, when suddenly the taciturn bartender spoke up: “That’s stupid. No one puts feta on a charcuterie board”
“Boo dodgers” was one of the earliest phrases my daughter (now 8) learned. She’s been a hater since day one-ish, though she’s got a kind heart now and so I try not to make her too hatery externally.
