hi my name is five pm and im coming to you live from night time

I think it sucks that you have to go to so many different kinds of doctor to take care of yourself. It's the 21st century. I should be able to go to a single office where they scan me with a big xerox machine and tell me what I'm allergic to and why my tummy hurts and if I have any cancer or cavities or if my glasses prescription has changed. And then I should get a sticker.

This comic was published in 2010 and I remember going to a talk at Cal Tech presented by Dr. Lucy Jones (LA's favorite celebrity seismologist) in 2012ish where half of the audience question portion of the presentation was accusations that scientists were covering up earthquake predicting technology because we finally had somewhat effective earthquake warning systems as a result of faster data transmission technologies and the widespread adoption of cellphones.
One thing that fascinates me is conspiracy theories where there is no obvious competing narrative, merely an attack on the existing narrative.
Like, what's the conspiracy theory? That we have earthquake prediction technology, and we use it, but we pretend that we don't? Why?
9/11 was the first time I started to notice conspiracy theories that didn't seem to have an alternative narrative of the facts, simply a scatter shot assault on the existing narrative. The official White House stance on covid is another.
The conspiracy theory here is that the earthquakes are man-made. That’s the competing narrative. The person in the original tweet thinks it’s suspicious that there are warnings before there are visible signs of an earthquake, and is implying that earthquake was a planned event.
Why would you plan an earthquake? I guess I just end up on the second order questions of, "Why would you want to kill a bunch of people in an earthquake, that's a really inefficient way to kill people that involves a lot of logistical headaches."
And then a second's thought further is "If your goal is to kill a bunch of people in an earthquake why even send the warning out at all? Wouldn't it be better to pretend that Earthquakes are so unpredictable that sometimes we just don't know they're coming?"
Also, of course, "Earthquakes are manmade" and "We have earthquake prediction technology that we hide" are two totally different claims, more or less incompatible with each other.
A lot of people, quite possibly the majority of people, have as a sort of default explanation "things happen because somebody made them happen." This is doubly true if there is someone that said in advance it would happen, and triply so if they didn't put the blame for it on someone else when they did so - now you're almost sure who did it, and what happens next is trying to come up for an explanation of why.

see also: the flooding in texas was done On Purpose to punish texas for being conservative. who did it? and how? the federal government is controlled by republicans? doesn't matter. you can always make up someone to blame anytime life on earth is less than idyllic. malevolent gods are better than none.
“it’s circus work.” not to me. not if it’s my monkeys.
why are all the actual real human jobs like baker and florist and childcare worker barely paying livable wages but the fake jobs like ai specialist boot licker or marketing campaign dick sucker making six figures

Roman aqueducts
This is a topic dear to my heart, because the first time I heard about the Eifel Aqueduct, it just about blew my mind.
The aqueduct, constructed in AD 80, carried water some 95 kilometres (59 mi) from the hilly Eifel region of what is now Germany to the ancient city of Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium (present-day Cologne). If the auxiliary spurs to additional springs are included, the length was 130 kilometres (81 mi) - one of the longest in the Roman Empire, and assumed to be the longest north of the Alps.
The construction was almost entirely below ground [to protect it from damage and freezing], and the flow of the water was produced entirely by gravity. Using devices similar to modern levels, the Roman engineers were capable of maintaining a slope as small as 0.1 percent—one metre of fall for every kilometre of aqueduct.
Fun fact: Romans preferred drinking water with a high mineral content, preferring its taste to that of soft water. Unfortunately, hard water tends to produce calcium carbonate deposits, and all areas of the aqueduct today have a thick layer of limestone-like deposits up to 20 centimetres (8 in) thick.
Despite the reduction in the cross-sectional area of the aqueduct caused by these deposits, the aqueduct was still able to provide the necessary quantity of water for Cologne. In the Middle Ages, the layer of "Eifel marble" from the aqueduct was widely reused as building material. Roskilde Cathedral in Denmark is the northernmost location of its use, where several gravestones are made of it.

I do often think about how the origin of “he would not fucking say that” was in reference to a post which depicted Cartman SouthPark responding politely when asked for his pronouns
meme phrases are so mobile and versatile and that's really really beautiful but i'm always thinking about the first "she x on my y til i z" being "she ebbin on my neezer til i scrooge" and the first "fork found in kitchen" coming from a tweet about sehun from exo being spotted at a gay bar. like sometimes you just utterly nail it the very first time and no variation of the joke is going to be better.

a ‘hot minute’ can be both a very short period of time, and a very long one. however, a hot minute in the past (“It's been a hot minute since I've seen you!”) is most often a long duration, while a hot minute in the future (“I'll be with you in a hot minute!”) is most often a short duration. this suggests some very strange things about the temperature of time.
