Yes! This is all just reifying ideas about nerds based on The Breakfast Club and maybe Bill Gates’s memoirs!
Maybe we should ask when math got so performative!

the worst part is that for the people at the top "good at math"/sciencey is essentially a vibe one socially codes their way into by being minimally competent at informally discussing things actual math/science people do, unless (e.g.) Elon Musk has proven a theorem I didn't hear about.
I think the belief by the powerful that "people will put up with many things if you are excellent at math" is incredibly revealing in terms of understanding How We Got Here

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.
All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

When did we internalize 80s high school movie culture stereotypes (being good at math excuses you from the burdens and benefits of sociability) as real life?

As an unabashed, unapologetic fan of The Row, I do think it’s funny that they just kind of ate up Eileen Fisher‘s whole deal like Pacman eats ghosts

My local grocery has already stopped stocking de cecco and replaced it with their house brand which is TERRIBLE, just godawful, like you boil it for hours and it stays raw and hard like a slimy leather shoe

We won't feed and provide healthcare for the poor, but we have the money to pay some lackeys to coordinate tearing down a memorial to Black World War II soldiers who died fighting for freedoms they had yet to fully realize.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

“The fedora, angled just so, is his homage to French Resistance hero Jean Moulin.”
Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

we need a national screening of the battlestar galactica miniseries
A friend recently texted me the same thing. “Do you really not use ChatGPT?!” It was a sign of where we are culturally on this. People are compelled to use it but also starting to question the normalcy?
Recently met someone who was very surprised to hear I didn’t use ChatGPT or any LLM.
I said my job depended on doing distinctive work. That was my selling point. If I started to sound like ChatGPT and turn out what it did, then how on earth could I justify doing it? What would that make me?

Queen Victoria wrote to Empress Alexandra to be like "you are ignoring everything I taught you about royalty and realpolitick" and Alexandra was like, "it's fine, it's different with Russians, they love being oppressed."
It's genuinely wild how this government is operating on the Nicholas II Principle: so utterly convinced of their divine infallibility that they're making the wrong choice at just about every juncture, slouching towards the cool zone
Fighting courts to cut off the grain dole is facially an insane thing for a government to do! Just begging to get blamed for an extremely destabilizing move for no benefit!

This looks exactly like this one gynecologist's office on Lexington Avenue. It's called PURE and they put an arch of fake flowers over the door to represent the ideal vagina, I guess.
What is this? Honestly even worse taste than I expected from them.

The only evidence this “flight” is happening comes from real estate brokers who have clients who want to buy and are hoping prices will drop
Where’s the offer of safe spaces for residents of Chicago who are getting beat by ICE’s batons?
I get it, they’re making a sales pitch. Always be closing. Also, screw these people. Zero sympathy.
