@StevenBrust Did you leave out a "not" in the clause about Israel?

@ATR_Fiction Whether it counts as erotic is debateable, but this deck builder game with sexual themes gave me quite a few enjoyable hours of gameplay: https://t.co/87zuEXJHBc

it's hard to truly feel how profoundly old civilization really is but a fact that leaves me breathless is princess ennigaldi-nanna of the neo-babylonian empire was an archeologist who founded a musuem 2500 years ago and most of the artifacts in it were 1500 years older than that

@ATR_Fiction The thing that the zeitgeist decides to adopt is rarely the "best" thing of its kind. See also, Harry Potter. No matter their flaws, they resonated deeply with a large audience.

@StevenBrust Listened to it last night, and it holds up. https://t.co/VZG4PddaUT

@UrsulaV My wife would like to add: "Also fails for mobility, viaual, and some cognitive impairments, so fails under the ADA and accessibility guidelines."

History is the top earning major for alumni in the University of Colorado system. Even over sciences. Amazing!

“Researchers estimated that customers spent $181-million in the repurposed parking spaces in the summer of 2021. The same spaces would have generated $3.7-million in parking revenue, according to the local parking authority…”

Do the parking math better. https://t.co/uLzjzw0fHe

@LeonieVHicks Have you seen C. Warren Hollister's song about the Avignon Papacy, set to the tune of "Old MacDonald?" He used to sing it to undergrads at UC-Santa Barbara.

@StevenBrust Are you on any of the other sites yet?

[Alexx Kay @AlexxKay]

@UrsulaV Is this the uncle who Shep sang Marty Robbins duets with at Thanksgiving?

@ElSandifer "Unchangeable"? We learn new things about biological reality *all the time*.

Just yesterday, I learned of the recent scientific observation of a lesbian pair of American Kestrels. In Texas, of all places!

[Alexx Kay @AlexxKay]

@ElSandifer We're also still many orders of magnitude away from the processing power of a human brain, so it's hardly surprising that we're "not there" yet.

[Alexx Kay @AlexxKay]

@ElSandifer Ultimately, I strongly suspect that humans are *not* intelligent, in a sense. That is, ultimately, there will exist computers who are sufficiently similar to humans that the only remaining arguments that humans have something "extra" is entirely faith-based and non-falsifiable.
