Remember guys: Your frenulum is just for friends.
If you're thinking about something and reach a conclusion that's super outside the mainstream, you could be right, but also could mean you should reinspect your assumptions.
I saw a post on lemmy about how we could prevent 133 holocausts by promoting animal rights and veganism. The article opened by doing some math about how many dogs you could torture and kill in order to be equivalent to taking a human life, and then how many animals humans kill, and concluded that we’re committing holocaust...
If time suddenly started going backwards, eating and using the restroom would suddenly get extremely awkward...
Words are the hands of the mouth
I just realised that this is not a painting by René Magritte (en.wikipedia.org)
"BeReal." FOSS alternative? Yes please! (programming.dev)
I like the concept of the iOS/Android app BeReal. Your app tells you randomly during the day that you have to take a combined picture (frond and back camera). So you don’t have much time to prepare. Then this pic is uploaded and friends who follow you can see it....
What if the only reason countries, like the U.S., agree to arm other countries when they are in conflict, is because international billionaires have placed bets on which country will win?
I mean, if the super wealthy are sitting back, in their mansions, when each of these conflicts erupts, and they start placing bets on which side wins, it might play a role in which side our government leaders choose to arm/support.
Candy Crush is this generation's Tetris.
Identity politics and universal pseudonymity arose at the same time.
If corporations are people, are shareholders slaveowners?
What if aliens caused inflation by stealing small amounts of cocoa beans from lakeside resorts?

april fools should span an entire week
1 day is too short
Rain on your wedding day isn't, in itself, ironic - BUT a song titled "Ironic" getting the very concept of irony wrong, that is the very core of irony, so... well done.
What if Boney M. was short for Boney Montana?
I wonder how much of youtube content is hardcoded sponsor ads.
Like when the creator does their spiel for whatever sponsor.
Humans were lucky that it worked out that bigger dogs generally are less mean.
You know how you can go to the dentist to have tartar removed? In the future, we could have routine appointments to have kidney stones pulverized and removed.
U.S. troops in Iraq were directly ordered to murder whole families, including children, and likely committed even worse war crimes, and this is the reason why so many Iraq vets have PTSD.
This literally just occurred to me as I was thinking about it and it makes me sad. And yes, I already know about the heinous shit that went down back then that we already know of, including the use of white phosphorus....
There is a chance that birds accidentally sing a known musical motif
Besides breakfast and books, is there any other use for a nook?
I did not intend for that to rhyme.
I wonder what fish and sharks think of whales and dolphins that have to surface to breath. I can totally see it "get out of here air breather, go hug the surface."
Algebra in school is like a compiler with shitty type inference: you rarely have to write type annotations and you can easily end up with impossible states.
Cows seem sorta like oversized goats that are too heavy to climb anymore.
The reason the internet can hook us more than a book is that the internet responds to us. If we get tired, we can dumb down our surfing, but dumbing down what you're reading is harder.
Dumbing down doesn’t mean “philosophy versus Call of Duty”. It just means what’s intuitive versus what takes conscious effort. Heck, Call of Duty could demand conscious effort.
