The global shift rightward re: censorship and privacy really stresses me out

Yeah, that’s an important point. Someone needs to think of the deciliter cups if they try to get rid of imperial units in the US.

Nutrition is in grams on purpose to be confusing to a population corpos knew weren’t really raised with it. By 9th grade all Americans have studied the metric system for science class, but it never really becomes intuitive for most people whereas we can hear “a cup of sugar, oh wow that’s a LOT of sugar for just one pitcher of liquid” without doing any in-head conversions

I thought oh, maybe he might pull through (one of those things! Some kind of evil miracle!) since they haven’t announced his death even a couple of hours later, but then someone said the hospital often won’t publicly confirm death until all next of kin are notified, and then that made a lot more sense

That’s phenomenal lol!

Haha, the real test of toughness
