I’m really fucking good, but even I have no idea how I did this shit:

I should’ve played that Powerball thingy.

I don’t know about you, but I masturbate fully naked.

If you don’t like it, go to a different Walmart.

Can you explain quantum entanglement to me like I’m 5 years old?

The most upvoted comment is 100% wrong. That is not how entanglement works at all, at all.

Those two particles are in a superposition. It’s nothing — nothing even close — to the blue marble and red marble example. The state of the particles (or anything else in quantum entanglement) simply does not exist* until one of the pair is examined. Note that this is not me speculating. A Nobel Prize recently got handed out for demonstrating facts directly related to what I’m talking about here.

What this means is that an entangled spin-up and spin-down electron pair, no matter how far they are separated, do not collapse into their respective spins until one of the pair is examined and it assumes a spin orientation. Then the other instantly does the opposite as well. In the top-voted commenter’s example, one marble is always red and one is always blue. This is completely not the case with entanglement. Entangled unexamined electrons are neither spin-up nor spin-down, but can only be represented by a probability calculation. To be perfectly clear: this is a fact of the universe, this probability, not something we are using due to lack of knowledge. The superposition is a feature of the universe itself, not of math or resulting from lack of understanding.

It’s ok, though. I’ve talked to actual physicists who don’t really understand entanglement, so I wouldn’t expect some random Reddit commenter to make sense of it either. Your macro intuitions just do not work at all for anything quantum. It’s better just to think of it as is, not as we wish it were.

*Other than as a probability inherent to the universe; not probability as we are accustomed to thinking of it, used due to lack of knowledge.

I also hate how “eating disorder” has come to mean, I did not allow myself to eat the whole cake in a single sitting when I could’ve eaten the whole cake rather than referring to a life-threatening, dangerous condition.

That is not a positive change at all. It harms people who need help and allows the Fat Acceptance movement to hurt themselves and their children.

I think a lot of the problem I and other men have with feminism as practiced now is that it assumes that men are merely defective women.

Despite all the good and necessary parts of feminism, I just don’t think that is true at all.

I should watch that film again; I’d forgotten how gorgeous it was. The cinematography really elevated it.

Will diet soda, yogurt, and cereal disappear from stores?

Diet soda better fucking not because of some WHO report that is 99.8% lies. Will go ape on their clown asses.

Hey y’all, remember all the people asserting two years ago that the vaccines and other factors would inevitably cause Covid to evolve into a much worse, far more virulent variant which would then start killing many more people? And remember when I said that had no chance of happening?

Well I was right. Of course. Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

These days, lunch for two people at a mid-end (non-McDonald’s etc.) fast food restaurant is $30.

It was not that long ago you could eat at an actual high-quality sit-down restaurant for that price.
