#WDYK of wind and waves
Thursday's full moon takes place at 2 degrees Sagittarius. The sabian symbol for this is white-capped waves displaying the power of wind over sea. Try to recognise and harness the rhythms of change rather than becoming overwhelmed by them. ⛵

WDYK about #biologicalgender? “Innate biological scaffolding for our gender identities” is our gender and everything else is experimentation through which we find our preferences #BehindClosedDoors

Good question! #WDYK
To all our haters marching against us, calling for our end, and demanding our painful fate… What do you know? I ask this with the most sincere seriousness. What do you really know? And I’m not even just talking about Israel or Gaza or the history of the conflicts. What do you really know about life that you sit in your tents on a university campus wasting your lives and futures that millions of far more deserving young people will never have the privilege to enjoy? What do you really know about the darkness of war thrust upon an entire people by those who simply exist to bring death while you stand with snarling teeth demanding your perfectly made coffees, your extra fine vegan cuisine, your lip liners and hairsprays, your brand clothing and lightly sparkling mineral water? What do you really know about life of rockets crashing into your cities indiscriminately, of having to grab your young children and rush them to a bomb shelter, all while you march on to a stage to receive a diploma you care nothing about and didn’t spend a second paying for just to rip it up because YOU somehow feel angry with the world you’ve given nothing to? What do you know about life where an Israeli pretends to themselves that everything is cool, everything is just fine sitting on a bus in the morning rain yet not knowing if that motorbike heading towards them will end up crashing into the bus intentionally because the rider is strapped with explosives designed to kill and maim everyone around, all while you’re standing in a line with a bunch of mindless idiots growling at a Jew that has nothing to even do with Israel but simply because they’re a Jew, as you shout at them hoping they die a painful death? While you exist in your delusional bubbles, pampered by your mummies and daddies and wrapped in cottonwool by society so that your precious feelings don’t get hurt as you’re protesting in your streets with venom and hatred about something you know nothing about nor have ever tasted, what do you actually know about real life, where people who are just waking up minding their own business trying to survive our unforgiving world and work themselves to the bone to raise a family are butchered in their homes, in their cars, in their streets because their neighbors who have spent decades perfecting the lies and fake stories you so gullibly swallow run riot raping them, massacring them, burning them alive and tearing them apart with their bare hands while cheerfully praising their fictitious god? I ask you, each and every damned one of you… what do you really know?

#WDYK of Werner Herzog?
To class: Do you know Werner Herzog? (An organic connection to Herzog had just come up) Class: Silence. Okay, let's just watch this for a few minutes then: youtube.com/watch?v=ze9-ARjL…

Why does @ezraklein have a clearer perspective on the state of progress in AI interpretability than 99% of AI researchers, including his esteemed interview subjects?

Hey @nj1015 heard you reporting on this today but it is fake news. Wilbur specifically points out Mister Ed did NOT hit an inside the park home run off of Sandy Koufax as he failed to touch second base. #WDYK #PlayBall
In 1961, Sandy Koufax sets the NL strikeout record with 269 but Mr. Ed spoils the celebration with an inside-the-park home run:

Correct. Staring at the sun is bad but staring at a solar eclipse is worse. #PhotoChemical reaction double whammy. Pupil is dilated inviting harmful light in when ocular anatomy is least prepared.
An eclipse is worth marveling at. But don't be silly, folks – play it safe and wear protective eyewear.

I work so hard. Don’t you understand? Making maple syrup for the pancakes of our land. Do you have any idea what that can do to a man? From the song “Magdalena” by Frank Zappa
