fwiw it'll at least stop being the north star in some thousand years (might be longer), which is arguably even more fucked to think about

like, people in the past had a different north star, what the fuck

putting up a public bookcase is probably the most anarchist thing you can do in an afternoon

A gazpacho of tomatoes

maybe if it's a really dreadfully woody bolete

i can totally eat small flavourful tomatoes on their own, but something about the idea of biting into a larger tomato feels very unsettling to me, i think it's the amount of loose slimy flesh around the seeds?

when the tomatoes are small enough they're just berries, which works fine

here in sweden i keep fucking getting insects blatting me in the face while cycling, and my body is absolutely covered in tiny flies/gnats after a ride

clover grows easily, so it doesn't indicate that you're spending time and effort maintaining it, and it doesn't let you appear rich and Proper

also worth noting that i don't think anyone who has seen people suffering from malaria would be able to defend mosquitoes, that shit fucking sucks and eradicating malaria-carrying mosquitoes is 500% worth the consequences

nuclear pasta is very energy dense

but like, the whole point of black holes is that time and space switch places, which means all the matter/energy inside them is packed in a single infinitely dense point

that's a pretty big thing to ignore

and we should remember that if this can happen to them, it can happen to us. The west isn't magically immune to backsliding, the middle isn't predisposed to being shit. In 100 years the situations might be the inverse with iran having forgotten that the netherlands used to be a nice place to live.
