HA!

Faced with two realities, forced to choose: either this random screenshot is unreliable, or Snopes is unreliable.

I’m reminded of 1984’s double-think; I can believe two contradicting things are true at once. Rock really did tweet this, and yet Snopes is reliable.

I remain happy.

doesn’t sound good

So true! I actually developed that ad specifically for user 781J233HH1 on our database, personally! And what, he just uses his “free will” and “freedom” to “block” my perfectly constructed ad?! Yeah, right!! Not on my watch, buddy!

It’s unfortunate, really, but there’s only 1 good answer: vote with your wallet.

Research before buying and be thorough. There are companies that don’t do this yet and you could build your own peripherals, there’s some nice DIY kits out there.

Just don’t buy this crap. IMO the only way this’ll change is if it hurts them where they feel it.

This is one of those things that I can only see because I know it’s a puzzle so I know to look for inconsistencies.

Then again, would this really happen IRL, to begin with? Wouldn’t you notice as you’re organizing the books?

Whatever, fun post!

oh THAT revelations ok thanks i thought this was some ORVP type thing thanks for the clarification

What’s Revelations?

This always makes me think about the intersection of magic and science.

Many “mages” way back in Europe such as Albertus Magnus and Agrippa were scientists and doctors. Shamans were doctors. Some of the oldest incantations we have are healing spells.

Yes, there’s a lot (a lot) of spirituality mixed in, superstition and wrong things, but a lot of it was really more of a framing; scientists explained their discoveries with religion, but their goals were fundamentally to further science, they just didn’t call it that.

Truly, the people that developed the methods to concentrate flavors, to get sweetness without sugar, stuff like that, they’re alchemists and mages. Doctors, chemists, researches, they are alchemists and mages.

That really is an apothecary and they really are elixirs of wakefulness. Just as they didn’t call them “convenience stores” and “energy drinks” back in the day, we don’t use these mystical terms nowadays, but that’s what they are.

Train ticket!

I got it because I ended up being able to catch an earlier train, instead of the train I was expecting to catch and had bought a ticket for.

I was just trying to wish them good luck on finding the answer…

I got this on my front page and holy crap you used so many words I have no idea what they mean. Hope you get good answers to your question though!
