@thisismewhatevs 2 of my 4 sets of great grandparents and one of my grandparents had certificates for previous marriages with no records of corresponding deaths or divorces.
@mcmansionhell The sort of person who's willing to lend their credibility to a state-level scam isn't going to be scared off by a few hundred thousand people going missing, because they were already pretending to be working on a project which relies on the existence of holograms.
@mcmansionhell I'm obsessed with NEOM. Its like looking into the sun. My brain just refuses to imagine being willing to pretend you believe it's real in the hope that the money you'll be able to scrape off before everyone realises they're just pushing sand around in the desert is worth it.
@jeeyonshim Oh, one last thing. To be clear, there's still value in monitoring CO2 as a proxy for particulates in the air, the relationship just only holds up if the air is unfiltered. Also, CO2 concentrations above 1000ppm can make you feel bad anyway, regardless of anything else.
@jeeyonshim Similarly, your mask won't be stopping the CO2 from coming out of your mouth and into the room, it also just catches the particulates. All of which is to say, unless you get some new air into that room, the CO2 is just going to build up the longer you sit in it.
@hankgreen There's a road in The City called Old Jewry, because it was a Jewish Ghetto from some time shortly after 1066 until around 1290.

@taylordotbiz Nah, you'll always need podcasts.
"What's up, guys, today we're joined by a very special guest. You know him from the top of the car with all the speakers on it, playing his guitar all up and down the fury road, its Coma-Doof Rider!"
@hankgreen I think a lot about how every generation of humans has presumably felt like their modern moment was as unique as we think ours is now. I like to think about cavemen thinking about the past and thinking how crazy it is that people used to make arrowheads with straight edges.
@jonathanfly I have found them very ready to get into conspiracies when they don't understand something. Presumably its just because they're trained on podcasts of a certain type, and statistically, they'd probably pick up on some themes.
@riseupcomus One who recognises their role as a collaborator in creating a thing with me and with everyone else around the table. Willing to take a lead when offered, and willing to make a big choice when the moment comes.
