I think it just weeds out the people who don’t know their name is The Doctor. Man, their seems wrong, but so does his since Jodi Whittaker. Future linguists will never parse that sentence.

- Comment on What strategy would you use to estimate the number of hazelnuts 5 weeks ago:
Find volume of one of them (can probably be found online), calculate volume of container, see how many could fit if you didn’t have to worry about physics, take a bit less than that.
There are some outside the container but I still think the amount of empty space is greater than that.

You know, I was indifferent about the removal of confederate statues and such. But re(installing) them. What the hell? Why? Reinstall it in a museum.
