@freemo repressed memories? Isn't that supposed to be bad because they'll cause weird behavior later? (of course, if they are truly erased rather than masked, it shouldn't be a problem)

@freemo I hope you can keep the gap between how they feel and what they tell you as small as possible!

Edit: I don't know when this happened (sometime between August 2023 and January). This toot was just retweeted in my timeline.

Remember The Dress, a viral sensation back in 2015? I was wondering if I was still perceiving it like I used to, that is white and gold. I now see it "as it is", i.e. a terrible photo that could be interpreted either as a completely backlit white and gold dress or a blue and black dress with strong lighting coming from inside the store. I also see the colors that I would have to use to turn the photo into a painting. This is probably as a result of spending a lot of time looking at paintings and painting.

Do you see it differently than you used to 8 years ago?

@lowqualityfacts What were they thinking?

Of course, it could also be that flying birds evolved into walking giants thanks to their lightweight bones...

I'm reading about giant dinosaurs and now I'm convinced that their large size required lightweight bones which became later key to evolving into flying birds.

@deepmud I have no issues with these as they are really easy to identify (the lookalikes are all edible grisettes). I stopped eating Amanita velosa, though, for some irrational/psychological reasons - probably because they were initially less obvious to distinguish from some extreme variants of other species.

Amanita pachycolea (Western grisette), Pacific coast of northern California. One of the low-risk edible amanitas.

@yourautisticlife I think [a, b[ is standard in French while [a, b) is standard in English.

@Valon_Blue 1/0=0\1 is prettier.

@gregeganSF I emailed them. There's too much at stake.
