I mean, the blame clearly lies on whoever created the fucking situation in the first place. I hate the trolley problem.

It feels like this is just an attempt to manipulate search results. It’s better when a dumb stunt like this shows up for “Russia meat grinder” rather than reports about the war in Ukraine.

My stove apparently has wifi. But why I would put that thing on my network is beyond me.

Do I hear Secretary of Women’s Health?

Does everything have to apply 1:1 to your own life for you to be able to take something useful from somebody else’s story?

I love that movie. It’s intentionally stupid.

You need to watch this other documentary called The Core.

Well, it might not have happened with chimpanzees, but it happens all the time with humans. So I see it more as a good allegory than a true story.

I learned that we should not tolerate intolerance!

Take five chimpanzees. Put them in a big cage. Suspend some bananas from the roof of the cage. Provide the chimpanzees with a stepladder. BUT also add a proximity detector to the bananas, so that when a chimp goes near the banana, water hoses are triggered and the whole cage is thoroughly soaked.

Soon, the chimps learn that the bananas and the stepladder are best ignored.

Now, remove one chimp, and replace it with a fresh one. That chimp knows nothing of the hoses. He sees the banana, notices the stepladder, and because he is a smart primate, he envisions himself stepping on the stepladder to reach the bananas. He then deftly grabs the stepladder… and the four other chimps spring on him and beat him squarely. He soon learns to ignore the stepladder.

Then, remove another chimp and replace it with a fresh one. The scenario occurs again; when he grabs the stepladder, he gets mauled by the four other chimps – yes, including the previous “fresh” chimp. He has integrated the notion of “thou shallt not touch the stepladder”.

Iterate. After some operations, you have five chimps who are ready to punch any chimp who would dare touch the stepladder (or curse Henry Symeonis) – and none of them knows why.

Yeah, I love that story. To me, that’s what Eurovision is about.

Well, Australia is also in the Eurovision.

Ohh, I had forgotten about this. Fabulous. They’re only from 2017. I would’ve sworn they were older.

Emblematic of our times.

Keith Richards is 81 and Willie Nelson is 91, in case anyone was wondering.

Isn’t that lemmynsfw.com?

I was so sure this would morph into the Fresh Prince opening.
