“Are you saying that Jesus isn’t fully man” he’s literally not. He’s half deity. Why did you word it like that?
“Jesus was fully human and fully divine” is conventionally accepted doctrine. It’s called the hypostatic union. It’s in the Athanasian creed.
Sounds like wormnoodless is recapitulating Eutychianism (Christ exists in one nature and of two), which was rejected by the Fourth Ecumenical Council in 451, instead adopting Dyophysitism (Jesus Christ is one person of one substance and one hypostasis, with two distinct, inseparable natures: divine and human), which is still the main belief of most major denominations.
you know if you think about it the whole “don’t mess with gamers… i’m close to leveling up and you look like just enough xp” novelty shirt is kinda funny. imagine a shirt that says “if you displease me i will kill you and absorb your essence”

thank you @obfuscatedtruttle1 (youtube page here) for all these videos! no activity on that account for a year but tagging just in case. the youtube channel is still active though :]
and here’s some snippets from my brief trip into the Esolang Wiki to find those links, looking back at languages I’d already encountered as well as finding new ones.
Matching your freak is beautiful and all but what you really need is a boy who’s infatuated with your freak. Down bad for your freak. Deeply intrigued by your freak. Eager to see more of your freak. Supportive of your freak. Gets bricked up witnessing your freak, even.
I just wanted to say thank for all the posts about naming Black female authors because it really made me realize i hadn’t been making an effort to remember or absorb anything about the authors of the books I’d read. I read primarily on kindle these days and if you sync it to a Goodreads not only will it open to the first page of the story it will automatically mark as finished on the last one (skipping any acknowledgments, author bios etc). I hadn’t even stopped to consider what a spoonfed content mill that had become for me. Paying more attention to the authors of the books I read really helped me engage more with the books I was reading and what experiences the authors may have brought to them. I know that wasn’t precisely what your goal was with those posts but I appreciate it all the same.
honestly it started from a place of like. pushing against complacent white supremacy in hobby reading but now I’ve opened this whole other can of worms discovering that a lot of people have just zero regard for the people who make the art they engage with? which is uuuh. you know, deeply uncool. so it’s very cool to hear that this has jogged something for you in how you’re reading! I hope you’re finding out some neat stuff about authors!
Culture is so obsessed with the idea of lone geniuses that it doesn’t really appreciate that most of the progress of science (and likely every other discipline) occurs collaboratively, in babysteps, and usually through a lot very tedious, utterly unsexy, work.
This is what’s so faulty with our short sighted coverage of scientific discoveries. You hear politicians question why we spend money on science studying insect wings and then decades later that research gets used by NASA for the most efficient way to fold/unfold solar panels on spacecraft. All of science is connected and useful because it enhances our understanding of the universe
When lasers were discovered they were called “a solution without a problem”, noone had any idea what to use them for. Since then they’re revolutionised communications and SO many parts of technology. CDs, DVDs, printing, fast internet, laser etching for making computer chips, laser eye surgery, spectroscopy, LIDAR measurements of weather patterns, barcode scanners, cooling atomic clocks, nuclear fusion, microscopy, LED technology and materials research. I’m probably not even scratching the surface here.
Fund theory and fundamental science research.
It’s actually kind of heartening, lasers; because before they were invented, their only real antecedents in science fiction were things like rayguns and heatrays and what not. But it actually turns out that their usefulness as a weapon is extremely limited, whereas their usefulness for just about everything else is incredible. It’s one of the occasions where we flipped the “Dual Use” coin and it landed very solidly on the good side.
when people complain about wasted funds on things that don’t “help” anyone, like space research, my favorite fact to share is that it was research into small rocket propulsion systems that gave us the mechanism that makes airbags work. space research has literally saved lives.
Angel on my shoulder: we’re extremely fortunate. You shot him in the side of the head and you’re wearing gloves. Place the gun in his hand and set the house ablaze. Officer Goger’s tragic suicide will be the perfect cover story
Devil on my shoulder: Goger was always eating stuffing and spelt wheat and steel cut oats. Bet he’d taste reeeeal good on a spit with an apple in his mouth. Come on, i’ve seen the way you’ve looked at him..

can u guyz like actually appreciate when i spend 8+ hours loveingly rendering things in microsoft paint or do you only care when i spent 2 minutes on a shitty cat drawing i wrote “omg it a kittycat” in comic sans on ?
I’m so glad that things like survivorship bias and statistical outliers became memes I wish more critical thinking skills would become widely-understood this way, I’m not kidding let’s get on this
”Turtles are showing up full of straws” “Nobody was trans when I was your age” “Why does everyone have allergies now” “Our ancestors survived without vaccines” “My grandma never had an income or driver’s license and THEY were married for decades” “I’m saving the rest of my medication for later cause I feel better now”
Look at the plane until you understand
My momma used to tell us not to fear the noises we heard in the woods at night because if something designed to kill us wanted to kill us then we wouldn’t hear it coming and at the time it was horrifying and unsettling but now I wish we all had heard that at least once growing up
@coffeegirlfriend Look up survivorship bias on Google, surely this plane will be mentioned somewhere, it’s a popular example
