Sam, are you safe? Any news on this? Anywhere near you?
Jesus Christ, fucking Chicago cops, my hand to god.
No, this is southeast of me, so I’m not near it (streets are numbered in order north to south, so think of me as being around 1st street, while this is at 71st). It’s only a mile or two from where I work but also a world away, in terms of the bullshit where cops shoot people in the back. What the fuck.
If you’re going 80mph how long will it take you to go 80 miles?
“ when I was 6, my sister was half my age…”
And this is why we need better education systems. Word problems are especially difficult for people because the context of the situation matters just as much as the numbers in the problem
You’re driving a bus. There are 30 people in that bus. 15 people get off at the first stop. How old is the bus driver?
All abusers are cowards but shout out to abusive parents for preying on fucking children who were their responsibility and can’t escape them and then, when they realize their kids are gonna move out and move on and don’t have any real obligation to spend time with them or be there for them, typically acting all buddy buddy and trying to backpedal and say “what abuse” for the rest of their kids’ lives, even if sometimes they continue the same shitty behavior just at a distance lmfao I hope you all choke you weaklings, all of your children are ten times as strong as you’ll ever be
so you’ve seen gifs of simone giertz’s shitty robots, right? of course you have.
she’s amazing. she’s hilarious. she’s a woman in STEM, kicking ass.
she just found out she has a brain tumor.
the doctors are pretty sure it’s benign, but it’s big, and she’s gonna have to have pretty major surgery which is gonna keep her from making videos for a while.
while she’s recovering, her patreon is pretty much gonna be her only source of income, so if you enjoy the gifs of her videos, or just want to support a pretty awesome chick who needs some help, you might want to kick a few dollars over that way.
(i’m not associated with simone in any way, i don’t know her – other than the fact that she favorited one of my tweets once! – but i absolutely adore her personality and her work and i haven’t seen any posts about this, so i figured i’d put something up.)
