@rasterweb@mastodon.socialA friend of mine is running for office. Polls closed here 15 hours ago, and the only update we have is that they "lead by 2.32 percentage points with an estimated 99% of votes counted."
Is that last 1% ever going to get counted!?!

@hex@kolektiva.socialI had a weird dream where I was talking to someone at some kind of ceremony, I think a funeral, where I had timidly painted my face with clay as part of some ritual. This person was talking about how far society has come while our brains have not caught up.
Imagine if your ancient cave dwelling ancestors were dropped into this world of cars, office hours, budgets, climate change, and AI. They would be absolutely freaking out and struggling to understand things all the time... Just like you are now.
Society teaches us to suppress these emotions. You're supposed to be OK with giant metal boxes flying around you in rumbling stampedes, but you feel it in unexplained anxiety. You're supposed to just fit your life into tight little bounds that ignore weather and season, but you feel it in more unexplained anxiety and depression. We are all part of something so big and complicated we can't make sense of it, we cannot possibly comprehend it all, it is simply too much to fully grasp the implications of our individual actions within global capitalism. Should we be surprised by our urge to simply destroy it, by the anger and desire to simply "smash" something far more complex than can be met with simple violence?
Some part of my brain was trying to remind me to be compassionate to myself. Perhaps that reminder can be useful to you as well.

Related: Go to your prof's office hours!! Their job is to help you figure this out, and I PROMISE they have seen a worse case than you before. I beg you, *please* send that email and stop by, they will be so happy you care. (Also, in my case they will have candy)
@buercher@tooting.chNolan has already been established as the rare director who can get people to buy a ticket on the strength of his name. As the follow-up to “Oppenheimer,” a somber period piece about the father of the atomic bomb, “The Odyssey” is further proof that Nolan can get butts in seats no matter the genre. Who else could turn a sword-and-sandal adventure that’s R-rated, nearly three hours long and isn’t a sequel into populist fare?

@losttourist@social.chatty.monsterAmong the old laws of the Channel Islands is the old Norman custom of the clameur de haro. Using this legal device, a person can obtain immediate cessation of any action he considers to be an infringement of his rights
At the scene, he must, in front of witnesses, recite the Lord's Prayer in French and cry out "Haro, Haro, Haro! À mon aide mon Prince, on me fait tort!" ("*Haro, Haro, Haro! To my aid, my Prince! I am being wronged!"). It should then be registered with the Greffe Office within 24 hours. All actions against the person must then cease until the matter is heard by the Court.
Don't mind me, I'm just off to learn the Lord's Prayer in Norman French and buy a ticket to the Channel Islands. Not sure who I'm going to use this new superpower against first but I can think of several good candidates!
