The brain, like any modern CPU, will under- and overclock itself at will. Unlike most CPUs, though, the internal clock is tied to the brain's frequency.

"and", in normal, non-pedantic English simultaneously behaves like a comma that separates elements in a set, multiset, or sequence and also the logical conjunction, an AND gate acting on statements ("A and B" is true if and only if both A and B are true).

"There exists" is the 'negation' of "For all".

"Alternating multifactorial" is a perfectly cromulent phrase.

Conventional wisdom tells us that you only live once. But movie and game titles say that you either never die or die twice.

The reality of the situation is that you're going to die a lot more than that.

Mass Effect's "true"  ::) ::) ::) ::) fanbase's favorite hobby being extremely bitter nitpicking just goes to show that the most fun anybody had playing ME1 were the completely non-interactive Codex entries, in other words shutting the game off and reading a wiki.

I must not be a true fan then. (even though I have been replaying the series again from scratch.)

Hell, I've even been playing Andromeda.

I thought it was a macabre joke referencing the fact that a good amount of Star Trek's supporting cast (including DeForest Kelley, Doctor McCoy) have passed away.

You may not like it, but this is what peak word count optimization looks like.

Person after getting a ticket: OH MY GOD WHAT DO WE LIVE IN COMMUNIST FUCKING CHINA OR SOMETHING!?!?!?!?! DON'T THEY HAVE MURDERERS TO CATCH OR SOMETHING!?!??!?!?! I WAS ONLY DOING 20 OVER, AND I WAS REALLY LATE AND PROMISED NOT TO DO IT AGAIN ANYWAYS!!!!!!!! THIS IS HOW THE NAZIS STARTED!!!!!!

Same person on any other day: I would like to express my deepest gratitude to our fine young police men in the blue uniform that protect and serve our communities, have a blessed day :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Unrelated thought: I think a murder epidemic so large that the police couldn't even handle traffic law is not something anybody wants to see.

If Howard Gardner in 1983 devised the theory of (9) multiple intelligences, one of which being spiritualist-existentialist(Worldly-stuff smart) then why is that not held to the same standard the other 8 are in academia, and in society?
Also TBH why was it only nine? Why can't the theory incorporate all the other intelligences that develop in society? Ah, the woes of theory having to be concrete.
