While it is a pain to upload to imgur and then post as a link, it’s not that bad tbh. If there was some way to convert an uploaded image into an imgur link automatically to skip the middle man, that would be cool, but imgur might have something to say about that.

Of course there is the option to snail mail all our memes to sunaurus for them to scan and upload. That way if you wanna post something, it better be worth the printing, 10¢ of shipping, and 2 to 3 weeks of travel time. That would be a pretty solid filter system.

You kidding? Book stores are full of right wing books.

Because they can’t sell them.

This is a perfect time to open up an ice pick shop.

I present the temperature scale that I made up- the Human Scale (H°)

I thought about the Fahrenheit vs Celsius debate, and I think both have practical uses, however I think combined they could make a very practical scale.

Fahrenheit: while my American sensibilities agree that 100° is a good marker for what % of my patience is used up to cut a bitch, I think a similar place would be the average human body temperature. For this reason, 100°H = 98.6°F . It’s not a perfect match, but it can still give us the satisfaction of “IT’S 100°!?” while having practical implications for medical uses “your body temperature is 102°, 2° warmer than average”.

Celsius: I think this scale makes a ton of sense for colder temperatures. When the thermometer reads 0°, that’s when you can expect snow. For this reason, 0°H = 0°C.

The conversation rates are:

H = (F-32) × 1.5

H= C × 2.7

More precise is

H = (F-32) × 1.501501501…

H = C × 2.7027027027…

While using the freezing point of water and the average human body temperature seem like inconsistent and arbitrary benchmarks, my goal is less about consistency and more about practicality for everyday use.

Now watch this scale grow as big as Esperanto.

God damnit the dating scene is already brutal enough. Dating apps are crap. I’m seeing a ton of friends going 4b. And the worst thing (from a dating perspective) is that they are right.

Fuck you Republicans. I hope all your sex dolls pop.
