  • Robert Jordan’s wheel of time series was pointlessly gender-essentialist in many dumb ways (I loved the series anyway and it was a huge formative influence in my life) but many of them were amusing, such as this very statement:

    Men forget but never forgive.
    Women forgive but never forget.

    Stripped of the arbitrary binary (there was SO MUCH ARBITRARILY BINARY STUFF in WoT😭) it does seem to describe two overlapping normal distributions of people that MAY have some correlation to reproductive caste that has not been proven but is thought provoking.






  • … If there were a word like ‘delicate’ that did not imply fragility. And smooth. I admire the care you’ve taken of yourself to land such a balance. If this image of you were a drink, it’s clear and clean and refreshing. As a song, a clear melody, sweet and soothing, without distraction. I wish rising from bed on a day off felt more like the way you look.




  • … 3.5kw per mile is not a unit that makes sense though???

    wait. no. I’ll look this up myself.

    Okay. So. It’s 3.5 miles per Kilowatt-HOUR

    Where I live, we have municipal hydroelectric power.

    Per Kilowatt-Hour or KwH, it costs around 17.44 cents. I’m going to round that up for a less-ideal-case-scenario to $0.18/KwH

    $0.18 per 3.5 miles = $0.05143 per mile.

    times 200 miles, that’s $10.29

    Filling my “tank” to drive 200 miles costing only a hair above ten bucks is pretty fucking great actually O_O

    Of course this is assuming I’m charging at home.

    Which … I would be, of course!

    I don’t tend to go far.
