LGBT rights in Poland, police brutality 

Please fucking boost this as far as possible. Please, PLEASE.

A Polish trans activist named Margot was arrested. Her "crime" is minor destruction of property (she cut up a tarp on a truck covered with vicious anti-LGBT propaganda).

Her pre-emptive arrest for two months was authorized by a court, despite the fact that such arrest, by Polish law, are meant to be used for people who are a flight risk or an immediate danger to others.

But wait, there's more.

misinformation, foxes 

i think it's neat that foxes can open dialup connections over screams to transfer data with each other

Okay, so that's a significantly more common thing than I had thought it might be :D

You ever just want to... curl up into part of a song and just live there for a while? Surrounded by the music, fully experiencing it with nothing else around?

mathposting, mild infohazard 

Math is fun!

Take the graph of y = 1/x from 1 to infinity. Rotate it about the x-axis.

The result has infinite surface area and finite volume; that is, you can fill it, but you can't paint it.

A Planck length is a unit of length which can be derived from Planck's constant. It is the smallest length which is possible in our Universe.

And it's unimaginably tiny. A hundredth of a billionth of a billionth of the size of a proton. But this is significant. Anything smaller than a Planck length cannot exist. It would not make physical sense.

Planck lengths are basically Universe pixels.

a favorite thing to do is to take sayings or metaphors that are of the dominant religion, and use them to refer to totally mundane things instead.

insurance works in mysterious ways!

I feel increasingly like "[Screams in 2020]" is a valid response to any major news headline.

My brain has evidently decided that this morning I should be both Mildly Anxious about everything as well as Rather Horny.

I am not really fond of this combination. o..o

Seriously, I hope people stop referring to the things they create as "content". You're not just making generic stuff to fill up space on a website owned by people who don't care about it. Your work deserves more respect than that. You deserve more respect than that.
