It's just whatever I find interesting now. OK?
History
- Whisper jokes are jokes that criticized authority in Nazi Germany. I like these. Especially the one where it tells Hitler to jump off the Berlin Radio Tower to make the people happy.
- Frederick the Great was almost certainly homosexual. Click here for a story about the lover he had in his teens. (Said lover was eight years older.)
- I skimmed over that last bit originally. Embarrassing!
- It's tragic either way. If I were Frederick I would've #killedmyself!
- I need to stop saying that. People think I'm saying I want them to kill themselves when that's not what I mean at all. I mean I would have done so, and it's admirable that they didn't, because they're much stronger than I could have been! Me and my wording, man
- Frederick's childhood in general is so sad. Screw his dad especially man
Science-y.
- Prions are normal proteins! It's just the accumulation of misfolded ones that get you scary diseases, and they're quite rare anyhow.
- There's a semi-popular skk fanfic where chuuya develops FFI.
Psych
- The Proteus effect is when a person's behavior mimics the traits associated with the appearance of their online presence.
- I wonder if this applies to real life too?
- Deindividuation is when being part of a group decreases a person's sense of self-awareness. This one is kind of scary to me uhm. Someone remind me to read the rest later
- This apparently says that people are more likely to vote for candidates who look like them? I can't find the original though. RIP.
Other
- BSD is kind of convoluted metaphysically (says me, person who hardly gets metaphysics, so everything is convoluted to me), but from my observations it mostly correlates to eternalism
- But, there's also multiverse stuff thrown in there... So the BSD universe is, like, 5 dimensional.
- BSD is so convoluted in general now. It's because they started focusing on my stupid husband. He went and made everything complicated to the point where idiots like me can't understand anymore.
- Cementland
- This is so bizarre to me. The guy who made (?) it was beaten to death. For what? Who had beef with the Cementland guy? The hell?
- Wikipedia says it was meant to be an art exhibit, but most other sources say it was meant to be an amusement park
- This page is funny to me. Isn't this awfully complicated for something that seems so simple? Or am I just stupid?
- The Wikipedia randomizer really likes giving types of moths. Is that just because there's a lot of different types of moths? I've gotten, like, 3-4 so far
