    You’re not actually wrong. The Goa’uld were indeed far too slow moving, and it was their ultimate weakness, they weren’t able to keep up with the pace of change around them, even despite a lack of competition in their evolutionary niche.

    Or possibly because of a lack of competition. Another object lesson in the dangers from having a lack of biodiversity in our ecosystem.



  • See how long you last as police chief if you choose to not suppress crime.

    So yeah, police are explicitly responsible for minimising crime, that’s literally their job.

    I admit there’s some nuance there since police aren’t expected to actually prevent all crime. In this metaphor I guess the question is whether Trump is a bog standard criminal that maybe gets around the police but is kept mostly in check, or if he’s a special level of super-criminal that police chief Biden should have his career judged against.


  • My dad and his brother didn’t get diagnosed until adulthood.

    My dad after he wore a horrific shirt at uni, and my uncle after he passed almost all the tests to be a airforce pilot.

    Turns out they don’t have colourblind mode for military jets, and colourblindness can be surprisingly well hidden, the brain does everything it can to hide the flaw, you really have to break assumptions to make it glitch out and guess wrong.
