Remember when Republicans were whinging about “unelected bureaucrats” and the “shadow government”?

TW: rape, etc.

Tap for spoilerFrom what I remember reading, he admitted a lot of pretty fucked up stuff but claims it was consensual, like rape fantasy/role-play, forced ass-to-mouth, free-use type stuff.

The person who brought a lot of the details forward was his son's nanny and also makes claims that he forced her to have sex while the kid was in the room, watching a movie on a tablet, and other really fucked up stuff.

Also, I'm not trying to kink shame anyone, but anything that's legitimately nonconsensual or is done in the presence of a minor is beyond the pale

I don't remember the source but it was a long-form interview with one of the women who have brought the allegations forward and presents a lot of the perspective of both Gaiman and his ex-wife (the lead singer of the Dresden Dolls, but I forget her name; Amanda something, iirc)

Edit: it was definitely the same person from New Zealand, so likely the same source linked elsewhere in the comments. I don't like hearing these allegations about someone whose work I respect, but it's starting to look pretty damning

I can't say for sure, but I do work with high schoolers some times, and it sure seems like there's a lot more positivity and inclusivity and a lot less bullying

Is stating the self-evident truth considered a meme now?

Well, that looks fucking great!

It does get legitimately used both ways. In a chemistry textbook, seeing it written as "unionized" is pretty common, and wiktionary says that the hyphenated form is predominantly used in contexts where it might be confused with "having a union" (which matches with my experience).

However, I still assert that it's just not a word chemists use that much as there are other, less ambiguous synonyms available.

I'm an AI/comp-sci novice, so forgive me if this is a dumb question, but does running the program locally allow you to better control the information that it trains on? I'm a college chemistry instructor that has to write lots of curriculum, assingments and lab protocols; if I ran deepseeks locally and fed it all my chemistry textbooks and previous syllabi and assignments, would I get better results when asking it to write a lab procedure? And could I then train it to cite specific sources when it does so?

Plus, they are amazing as mixers, so you can always make them alcoholic

See, I'm a chemist, but I also believe in the power and importance of organized labor, so I still read that as unionized.

Plus, I think most chemists would say "neutral" or use protonated/deprotonated rather than un-ionized

 

Another of my favorite RTJ songs

"Into The Void" is a song about the Apollo program and early space flight, as organized by various "Space Programs"

Connection: dark, apathetic hedonism verging on nihilism

As an aside, "God never makes mistakes, he just makes fuck ups" is one is the better song lyrics written in the last decade, IMHO

 

Connection: "Something wrong...chemically"

Connection: from "Octopus's Garden" I thought of the movie Garden State, the soundtrack of which had this song.

As an aside, this soundtrack was immensely influential for my 18yo self and other young, pretentious college students around the same age. For the most part, I think it holds up as a pretty great soundtrack to this day

 

Connection: songs about cocaine

 

Type O Negative is the quintessential goth metal band and "Love You To Death" is one of my favorite Type O Negative songs
