Piss harder.

You say that, but I have had a pet snake since I was a child and because I was a boy child I assumed they were male. But once I got older it occured to me that I have no idea if they’re actually male or female (because sexing a snake isn’t as easy as with mammals) and it seems more likely that they’re actually female. But I’m not certain either way and I genuinely don’t care. So I’ve since started refering to them as they/them. My dad still points it out every time I do it. “Oh, you have multiple snakes?” It’s kinda weird considering he’s so progressive in every other way.
- Comment on Australia | Sydney trains hit by serious delays after last-minute court ruling blocks industrial action 4 weeks ago:
I’m always confused when this crap happens. How can a court even block a strike? It isn’t like the can force people to go to work. If they decided to just not show up for work anyways what would the court do?
- Comment on Scientists develop the world’s first carbon-14 diamond battery, offering a 5,000-year lifespan — the device uses radioactive decay to generate low power levels 4 weeks ago:
It’s just a betavoltaic cell using carbon-14. The science here isn’t really anything new outside of isolating that much carbon-14 and turning it into a diamond. Also it’s going to produce next to no power. With betavoltaics the more active the radiation source, the more power you get and the faster it depletes. Carbon-14 is radioactive but only barely. Considering even shortlived betavoltaics only produce microamps at less than 3 volts even when brand new, I’m guessing they had some really sensitive sensors in use here to even detect any power being output by the carbon-14 cells.
