I #AmReading The Gene: An Intimate History and just found out that Pythagoras LEARNED the 'triangle theorem' later called the 'Pythagorean theorem' from Indian or Babylonian geometers. He didn't like... discover it himself.
Erasure of people that aren't white men is everywhere, even, apparently, in every math class I've ever taken.

Remember: dictionaries are not dictators.
Dictionaries record usage. They are not arbiters of absolute truth. The most weight you can honestly give a dictionary entry is "someone has witnessed a substantial number of people using this word this way".
sleepy, food, doing stuff
*yaaaawns with lots of teeth and stretching*
been productive today, ate 4 bean and cheese quesadillas (I usually have 3 at a time) and feel reasonably food-satisfied, but sleepy. I need to not nap, though; need to sleep tonight so I can go do volunteering tomorrow. tempted to try making some green tea--oh wait, I can make a banana ice cream shake thing! yeah I'ma do that. :D
not actually a selfie
@mawr @Leucrotta yes! my first thought was "relative" and then "hmmm..." so yes this!

New day! Time to post some actual #gamedev !
The game I'm developing is called Calico. In Calico you are a magical girl running a cat cafe in a cute, magical town! You can learn more at Calicogame.com ❤️
We're working to finish a demo in the next couple months for a kickstarter!
capitalism poisoning
@noelle *narrows eyes* that... well. yeah, "capitalism poisoning" sums it up pretty well, doesn't it?

and while I was writing this Nar smelled the baggie of treats in my pocket and began climbing all over me going "TREEEEATSSS??" so now they're both in the living room, looking for the treats I've scattered around. XD #kittenthings #catthings
Raziel had a quick vet visit for weighing and med dose adjustment, because he is a quickly-growing kitten. he spent most of the visit cavorting around the exam room, sniffing everything, getting fed treats, and purring quietly--and now he's cavorting around the house, playing with EVERYTHING and mewing happily. I'm glad to be acclimating him to positive vet visits! #kittenthings

TLDR: to most online bad actors, "I'll tell your mom!" is a MUCH less important factor in controlling behavior than "I can push a button and take away ALL your content and influence".

uspol, pdxpol // police disinfo
police disinformation in the wake of the august 4 protests has been wild: first they said they opened fire because somebody threw a water bottle, then they said it was a rock, then explosives, then M-80s...
they reject that anyone was wounded by their munitions but they sent cops to local hospitals to look for injured protesters. they want the injured to come forward but nobody trusts that they won't be detained for speaking out.

Man, I loved Black Panther. That movie was absolutely amazing, the art and costume design was unparalleled, the representation put tears in my eyes.
But that movie did NOT fix race relations in the US, calm down people.

transphobia
If someone won't answer when you ask them if they think trans women are women, they think trans women aren't women.

One of the weirdest side effects of capitalism is that it neatly debunks a lot of "paranormal mysteries".
The best (and best-known) example is the Bermuda Triangle: if there were actually an unusual number of ships and planes going down, vanishing, etc. in the Triangle, insurance rates for vehicles traveling through it would be higher than for those going similar distances but not traveling through it.
(They're not.)
