  • Holy nothing burger, Batman!

    First off, this article is from 2022, re-released to farm clicks from the current hype cycle.

    Secondly, this is conjecture on top of conjecture. They discuss that we can’t know the current damage from satellite, and Iran down plays the damage. Then they go on to say “concrete is strong and can be stronger”.

    Articles like this annoy me. It’s all based on lots of unsubstantiated claims, and then one guy’s theoretical research. We don’t know the strength of the bombs. We don’t know the strength of Iran’s bunkers. We don’t know how much damage was done. None of this has changed. I doubt we’ll ever really know. But throw whatever political spin on it you want, and now you’ve got a click worthy news article.










  • cars will need to use buttons, dials, or stalks for hazard warning lights, indicators, windscreen wipers, SOS calls, and the horn.

    Not enough, in my opinion. I’ve never had a car with these on touch screens, but I can’t imagine why anyone would think it’s a good idea. I’d like entertainment centers to stop being touch screens as well, but this doesn’t go that far. Hopefully they do in the future, though, since this is a good start!








  • “Isn’t it weird that your job is basically staring into a hole all day? Like, did you lose a bet or something?”

    I have a very broad scope of practice, so I stare into other holes as well! But no, didn’t know how much of my profession would involve starting into holes.

    “Do you ever feel like your patients are secretly judging you while you’re judging their behinds?”

    Eh, not really? Most people tend to be quite self conscious and so are wrapped up in their own judgement to judge me.

    “What was the first time you told someone, ‘I want to dedicate my life to bottoms,’ and how did they respond?”

    I think it was my parents? Pretty much their response was “seems like a good way to pay the bills”.

    “If you think about it, the rectum is like the backdoor of the body. Do you ever knock, or is it more of a barging-in situation?”

    I like to take the door by surprise. If you give them notice by knocking, they clean up the place a bit. Gotta catch them by surprise to know what’s really going on.

    “Would you say the rectum is the most underappreciated organ, or is it just happy to be left alone?”

    Underappreciated for sure. Ever seen that meme about which organ is the most important? Anus shuts up and everyone dies.
