I once got to sit in seat 01A on a plane but it wasn’t first class, just a budget flight with the same class seats all the way through

goddamnedtwisto posted:They're not particularly sensitive so will false-negative quite a bit, especially because people are reluctant to stick things deep enough into their head holes, but if you're testing semi-regularly (and get a proper test, or at least do multiple LFTs, if symptomatic) they're fine. IIRC the false-positive rate is basically zero, but the false-negative rate can be as high as 25%. All the best scams have already been taken  Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Is there any kind of movement dedicated to encouraging people not to vote in an effort to delegitimise the entire political system, that feels the only thing I'd be willing to get behind right now.

Is there a thread I can go to to ask about advice for getting into goat-touching as a second career? I’m only like ⅓ joking  though TBH I’d probably prefer to do trees or something.

Like so many of these things, buying and wearing a poppy in support of charity and as a quiet mark of respect is fine and good, but it’s sadly becoming something that marks you as a very particular kind of virtue-signalling loon.

OwlFancier posted:I mean it literally is virtue signalling whyever you do it, that is a completely accurate descriptor of how it functions in society, you wear it to signal a thing to others that you believe to be a virtue of some sort, whether that is because you think it will win you praise or because you want them to feel a certain way in themselves.

Yea this is all true; I meant ‘virtue signalling’ in the sense of ‘insincerely pretending to have virtue’ that it now often seems to mean, but it’s such a loaded / polluted term at this point that I should have just avoided it altogether.

Mushrooms are great, haven’t had any since they became illegal ☹️ Acid is also great but it’s much more of a time and mind investment. Plus every time I take it recently I have an overpowering awareness of how old I’m getting and how I haven’t done any of the things with my life I wanted to and time is running out and aaaaaah

The Perfect Element posted:I will always remember the day before shrooms were banned, because it coincided with the cinematic release of the Tom Cruise War of the World's. We took a bunch, saw that, had a blast, then bumped into a guy I didn't really like from school, then proceeded to have a genuinely lovely chat with him and came away in general bearing less animosity to people who I didn't really know that well.  We gave some to some women who'd never tried shrooms before and had a blast, then ended up sat around in the festival ground somewhere long after it had closed for the night smoking weed, spinning poi and generally being dirty hippies. It was great and I am nostalgic for my well-misspent youth.

bessantj posted:I feel there is probably a study out there that looked into the difference between farting with your trousers on and farting naked. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1121900/ quote:Dr Kruszelnicki then described the method by which he had established whether human flatus was germ-laden, or merely malodorous. “I contacted Luke Tennent, a microbiologist in Canberra, and together we devised an experiment. He asked a colleague to break wind directly onto two Petri dishes from a distance of 5 centimetres, first fully clothed, then with his trousers down. Then he observed what happened. Overnight, the second Petri dish sprouted visible lumps of two types of bacteria that are usually found only in the gut and on the skin. But the flatus which had passed through clothing caused no bacteria to sprout, which suggests that clothing acts as a filter.

Rambalac is my go-to YouTube channel for peaceful walking around ambience; guy with a 4K HDR steadycam rig on his back walks around different areas of Japan, sometimes in the city, sometimes in the countryside. No talking or music or anything other than the noise of wherever he is, it’s very nice.
