@trinsec @Pat @freemo As a facial recognition expert, it appears to be the sign of relief after a particularly severe bout of constipation has been surprisingly alleviated by an equally surprisingly painless treatment. (If only a German was here to christen my description with a ridiculously long compound word.)

Imagine it: you haven’t pooped in a week and a half, you’re bloated and miserable. Suddenly, after enjoying a delicious, laxative-laced stroopwafel, a stirring in your bowels begins that begets the smoothest pooping experience of your existence: a perfect log, a single clean wipe, and a feeling of contented ease unrivaled by anything you have or will ever experience. It’s bittersweet, as you know it’s all downhill from here.

It is this feeling of completely unexpected joy caused by the reversal of a (pun-intended) crappy experience by a stupid simple method, that I believe we are observing here. Truly, this expression exemplifies these circumstances, and only a few will have the joy of experiencing it for themselves.

P.S. In case it was non-obvious, the poop thing is just an (albeit gross) illustrative metaphor for the emotions behind the expression πŸ˜‚

I'm not surprised that the first analyses of the first Webb data seem to indicate that galaxies in the early universe are more massive than the standard model of cosmology predicts.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

This line hit me hard...

Democrats: Trump is responsible for the recession

Republicans: Biden is responsible for the recession

Reality: Trump started the recession with excessive quantitative easing reaching a record 7% inflation by the end of his term. Biden made the recession worse with excessive spending and taxes bringing it to the highest level in the last half a century at over 9%.

In old french:
F are S
V are U
Vowels with ^ (Γͺ,Γ΄ etc) are vowels + ST

There must be more...

@barefootstache @freemo

@trinsec @freemo to me it almost looks like it’s going towards the traditional s in Germanic

@barefootstache @freemo We had that kins of ‘s’ too in old Dutch. That’s annoying to read.
