I love genuine questions and people putting in the effort to love and understand each other better. If you come at me just wanting to argue I’m going to troll you back. FAFO.

Can we all agree to look up a local third party candidate and mention their name to someone you know who is also local?
I like ballotpedia.org but am very open to other resources or suggestions for how to get good info. Honestly half the reason I’m posting this is to start a solid thread of resources....
Most unique looking celebrities?
I’m working on a side project studying variations in human facial features. It’s been helpful to study celebrity faces because it’s easy to find numerous reference photos. I’ve actually got a fairly good range of weird looking white men, turns out Hollywood is pretty flush with those, but it’s been harder to find...

If you had to give one piece of advice that is pretty much universally applicable, what would it be?
I wouldn’t dare defile Douglas Adam’s memory by not mentioning that you should keep a towel with you at all times, but my second contender is a surprisingly short three-parter:...

I feel like this is going to be impossible to guess but the image just turned out so nice I wanted to share it.

Would suction cups work in space?
You know like the kind that go on a window or bathroom mirror or on the wall or in the shower. They need the atmosphere pushing down on them to work, right?
There's definitely a time and a place. (sh.itjust.works)
Science Diagrams and infographics that look like shitposts. (sh.itjust.works)
Shameless clone of one of my favorite Facebook groups for real science diagrams and infographics that just look fucking silly.

SLPT: You can make like 30-50% of your social circle think you're psychic (or just weirdly smart) by asking them to think of a number 1-10 and asking if it's 7.
Helps if they 're not huge nerds who spend all their time talking about the true definition of randomness and/or already have a number they consider the sexiest have reduced STEM knowledge overall, somewhat irrespective of other intelligences.

What's your best unconventional "blessing" like when people tell an actor "break a leg!"
In inpatient psychiatry I tell my coworkers “I hope your shift is mind-numbingly boring” or something similar (keyword being boring) because in my line of work, interesting (usually) = bad....
The increasing distrust many Americans have in modern medical advances is probably mostly due to our failing Healthcare system.
It’s easy not to trust a system associated with charging you $500 for Tylenol. Much easier (and occasionally even safer) to just smell some lavender and hope that helps. Go to an ED and you could just die of a stroke or heart attack in the waiting room or even get run over by somebody who died of a heart attack while driving...
They filled the relaxation room with spare patient mattresses so we slept on them.
We had a little separate room branching off the break room about the size of a powder room with just one table and one chair in it. It was so you could go cry or sleep or just not look at your coworkers on your break if you needed it....
Anyone interested in helping me playtest a forum-based creative-writing RPG? (sh.itjust.works)
I made some prototype rules for this game, and the community I made for it is linked. Basically you have an “Editor” (Game Master/Dungeon Master) who guides the writers (players/characters) through creating a world and their characters, then regularly adds a chapter prompt that they have to write a chapter for their...
