Oh no, it seems to predict everything perfectly.
You just have to accept that the known universe is actually a 5D holographic projection on a the inner curve of a 7D frisbee that is floats through an unbounded, dimensionless 11D space that can somehow also expand.
Edit: also that there are infinity solutions to every problem. So tidy and elegant ๐
The hilarious thing about the crackpot index is that almost ALL of it applies to credible physicists.
Physics is in a really dirty place right now, where fundamental "truths" are exploding before our eyes and the "religion" of established physics has become inertial to real growth.
We still have people who will not accept that deep at it's core, SR is broken and QM has torn off the mask of illusion. We have new JWST data that shows the Big Bang probably never happened and the universe isn't expanding the way it has been previously thought.
Physics is in a sad place right now with people talking about multiverses and other abhorrent mystical nonsense. Oh, we can't currently probe at sufficiently low resolution / high energy... that means it must be magic /s
String 'theory' is mental masturbation for mathematicians.
Hmm... nothing in our model or math makes sense... I know... let's just jam all the artifacts into a dimension that cannot be measured. Ahhh... look how elegant it is!
You can see that underneath the hideous butchering, she was probably a gorgeous woman in her natural form.
I'm not going to try to talk out my ass here, but years ago I dated a gastroenterologist, and one of the conversations we had centered around suicide attempts from people shooting themselves in the stomach.
She said that was the quickest way to not die, but to ensure that you will spend the rest of your life receiving regular medical care and you'll never shit or piss normally again. Her message in that conversation to me was that the chances of dying by shooting/stabbing yourself in the gut are very low, but that doesn't mean it's consequence-free!
Same thing when I see people crying over their country's team winning an Olympic medal.
Get a grip - You didn't do anything except be born in the same geopolitical boundary as the actual athletes. Perhaps one 50th of a penny of your tax dollars contributed to the team athletic funding.
Oh my grandmother had those little Red Rose tea figurines all over her house. Literally hundreds of them.
She treated them like they were priceless and would give them out as gifts.
I tried explaining to her that you're not going to get a free item in a box of tea that is worth more than the box of tea - do the basic logic gramma.
This fell on deaf ears.
I let my emotions get the best of me as a young man.
Still though, the best answer for me now is to not let other people make their problems my problems. The old cliche of "no" being a complete and unambiguous answer. Repeat until heard.
I had a woman flirting with me yesterday at the bulk food store. Happened to be at the coffee grinder, and she was struggling with it, and I just spontaneously teased "you broke it I'm telling"!
This led to a little bit of banter and talking about recipes, which led back to how she likes to get her coffee here.
I told her how I like ro enjoy my morning espresso.
She smiled and gave me that flirtatious side look and mellifluously intoned "I'd sure love some morning espresso... Brought to me in bed..."
The words floated off my lips "is your kitchen floor cold? Should I bring my slippers?"
She immediately looked shocked, faced directly at me pie-eyed. "I should have known better. Typical response from a man."
I was fucking gobsmacked.
Don't ever tell me that men don't pick up signals, we have been trained... by women, to never pick up signals.
I'm with you my friend.
Personally I can't even relate when I hear people talking about how a game made them cry or how it changed their life.
Writing in games is largely trash. Vapid and expositional, cliche-driven pablum.
Even The Witcher isn't good.
