The Victor Ninov Situation Is One Of My Favourite Cases Of Scientific Fraud Because It's Rare To See

Happy Valentine's Day!! Have you ever looked at the periodic table and thought, "This would make a great dating game"?? No??? Take a [quiz] to find out which element you are, and see which elements you can bond with! I made a TON of illustrations for this Doodle. Let me know your otp.

I truly don't think I will ever be over The Good Place. Especially Chidi and Eleanor.

Chidi, who agonizes over every single decision to the point of causing himself physically pain, because making a decision to deliberately hurt or inconvenience someone, even a stranger, in the slightest way is objectively, in the binary, black and white sense of the word, bad. This man basically tortures himself his whole life (a la Doug Forcett) in an impossible quest to be, objectively, good to his fellow man. To be a good, ethical person, because that is his duty as a human being.

Eleanor, who couldn't give a flying fuck about other people. Who was, in all but the legal sense of the word, abandoned by her parents. She just wants to be alone. Why should she care about other people when, inevitably, they leave her? Why put energy out into the world when it never seems to come back to her? So, she does exactly what she wants, what makes her happy, other people be damned.

And so, these two people are put together in the afterlife to torture each other, but instead they make each other better. Eleanor teaches Chidi that it's okay to be selfish some times. Telling her to shut up when she is being annoying, does not make him a bad person. That going after what he wants without stressing over the consequences can lead to new paths that he never would have otherwise had the courage to. Chidi teaches Eleanor that life is better when we are kind to each other. Connecting with other people, even though it's scary and messy and not always good, can lead to wonderful things. That when you open up and put your best out there, you will find people that will love you and want to stay with you, even through your worst moments.

These two were put together to bring out the worst in each other, and instead, their "worst" brings out the other's best. Chidi stops worrying about the consequences, Eleanor starts caring about her fellow man. Is there a word for when two foils perfectly balance each other?

Favorite pirate?

I feel like I’m expected to say Gráinne O’Malley (or the more common anglicized version: Grace O’Malley) since she is considered the “Pirate Queen of Ireland.”

But I have a personal sore spot for Zheng Yi Sao (aka Shi(h) Yang / Ching Shih and a lot others) who is typically considered one of history’s most successful pirates. I used to be able to recite the why but I’d have to look back into it for fear of misremembering lol. She was one aspect I chose for a huge essay I had to do in history and did a large deep dive and found it so cool, there is a reason she is so popular.

(The essay was on the romanticized version of pirates in media, and its the connection to queerness and minority groups, vs actual piracy and how marginalized groups were treated in that world.) Ignore the abomination of a run-on sentence, trust that my essay was much better (it was a college class)
