Queer rights and our understanding of human sexuality was set back by eighty years because of antisemitism.

tolkien fans are insufferable because you'll agree to watch the movies with them and then seven hours in they'll say "omg my favourite character is about to appear!" and it's a fucking siege weapon

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Sometimes I meet really cool people at the library. An old woman and her family came in to record an oral history—because the old woman had been the secretary to NASA astronauts in the 1960s. Among many other cool things, she had this packet of cheese sandwiches, an example of what would be sent into space with the astronauts. The Velcro enabled them to stick the packets to the spacecraft. She also had a charm bracelet that held charms which the astronauts took into space for her and brought back.

She had all these incredible memories and artifacts, but she was surprised that I was moved and awed by her story, because she had always worried that she wasn’t good enough to be there at NASA. But she sure as hell was, and still seems like an incredible woman.

ok so this is another long shot but a few years ago there was a twitter post (in japanese i think?) that had measurememts for how to make this book stand thing out of cardboard that you could use to double up books and use up more space on shelves

back then i made a bunch of these but by now i lost the pic and dont know how to find the original post anymore

if it comes down to it i can just take one apart and get the measurements from there but i would be very grateful if anyone happens to have the original post or something similar??

[megacarapa]

don't mind how long it's been since i made this post, anyway i realized that i don't even need to take one apart to get the measurements when i can literally just unfold it and refold it /FACEPALM

so anyway here is the diagram for anyone else who is interested!!

this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together

and then in the end you put it together like this!!

and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy

EVERYONE START GETTING MORE USE OUT OF YOUR SPACE NOW!!!!

I love having to explain something again because the man I’m talking to refuses to give credit to what I’m saying the first time and so doesn’t bother listening.
