Maybe Castle in the Sky (those were shown to be chickens I think but the egg physics might be what you're thinking of)? Ghibli certainly seems to like showing eggs being cooked and eaten.

Yeah but what about the impact of the press coverage of the debate and Biden's age? NYT wants to know. For reasons.

Graph stolen from the other place, but as a bit of a wonk this is could be really interesting if the exit polls are accurate. Still a landslide but with both Tory and Reform over-perform. Still terrible for Tories but substantially less terrible than forecast. The 'shy Tory' voter is still here.

If you care about the USA, the single best thing you can do today is to contribute to a downticket race thats close. The second best thing you can do is cancel your NYT subscription and use that money for the purpose.

I've settled on this position and affirmatively think Biden should remain in the race come hell, high water, or his own death. The utter panic everyone has felt is not a sign that Biden should resign but that the moment when the election is *real* and its outcome uncertain has arrived.

Classic American political dialogue is premised on the idea that we share fundamental values but disagree on how best to promote them. I haven’t believed this for a while. Other than “I prefer to be alive and not dead” and “I like pudding,” I do not share values with these people.

Easy to lose sight of the significance here, but the sitting president just gave a speech condemning the Supreme Court for a ruling that expands presidential power. It’s also a president who stands to benefit from this ruling, given that his opponent is vowing to imprison him and his family.

The thing about establishing standards ex ante is that they do not change in response to political whims. There is an irony to the fact that the Former President Donald Trump falls below the ethical standards to sell booze in New Jersey. I hope enough Americans vote against this moral menace.

Motherfuckers it's even worse. They're the only shelter in town. They require 40hrs/week unpaid labor. If you're not 'making progress' they kick you out. They want the cops to ticket the homeless if they don't agree to be converted.

When your homeless shelter is so bad people would rather sleep outside than stay with you, so you ask the Supreme Court to make it illegal to sleep outside. It's what Christ would have wanted.

When I told my contractor a decade ago that I wanted mini-splits put in, he said "Why would you want that? It only gets hot a few days a year." He was an older gentleman who had grown up here, and that had been true for most of his life. It is no longer true now and I'm glad we put in mini-splits.

It sucks. I've flown a bunch with the same masking process as you without catching 'les vids' it's a crapshoot. On planes where you can direct air directly at your face it's better, but some have side vents and then you're just hosed if the person upstream of you is contagious.

Did you mask at the gate and the jet bridge? Those are often higher risk than the plane itself, but also sometimes if you’re within a row or two of a case and the airflow is just wrong you’re kinda hosed. :(

He knew the 'risks', but he's succeeded as a VC based on luck and access. Easy to equate that to skill and then make a bad call, because it wasn't skill it was luck and access. Now to preserve ego we must engage the sunk cost fallacy. Or use other people's money to cut his own losses.
