SHOWER THOUGHT: the only thing you can legally steal from a parked car is a child.

Have you ever felt the pain of not having a way to capture a scent? Last night, I found an object that has an interesting odor, and multiple times my brain has just said “oh, just use your phone to-“ before realizing that even in our modern world, with phones being the go-to storage vessels for everything from images to ideas to banana poems, phones can’t store smells.

According to my dreams, if you charge an iPhone 13 mini (my phone) using a charging block made for charging an iPhone 15 Pro, the phone will flip out from the high wattage and blast your local emergency alert siren until you unplug it. Which is absolutely bogus, because an actual iPhone will communicate with its charging block to get the wattage down to a safe level.

Besides, I once charged an iPad Air 2 using a charging block made for a MACBOOK PRO . . .

Yesterday, I had a sore throat. My parents told me that it was a viral infection, but I have a sinking feeling that I got it from laughing my butt off at a British comedy show the previous day.

That would be the manhole cover that got launched by Operation Plumbbob.

wasn’t there a story somewhere of a manhole cover that like broke the sound barrier or something after it got flung off by a nuclear explosion

Soviet scientists in 1957: we’re only 3 months away from launching our meticulously designed and carefully researched satellite into space! It’s going to be the first man-made object to reach space!

Operation Plumbbob: hold my manhole cover

anything can be a UFO if you throw it fast enough

In theory, you could change the Earth’s rotation speed using reaction wheels built on the poles. The only problem is that these reaction wheels would have to be comparable in mass to the Earth itself, which opens up some problems. Among the ones I can think of:

  • A special motor and axle would have to be made to handle the extreme weight of the wheel.

  • Making an object comparable in mass to the Earth is an obviously difficult task.

  • They could use less mass and get the same result by spinning the wheels faster. However, if they relied too much on the spinning, the wheel might spin so fast that centrifugal force destroys it.

What if the first-second-third person system kept going?

  • In first person, the story is narrated by a character. “I head for the patch of wild mint. But I see them moving; something’s already in them.“

  • In second person, the story is narrated by an in-universe you. “You head for the patch of wild mint. Something is moving in them.“

  • In third person, the story is narrated by an unseen in-universe entity. “Kemi is headed for the patch of wild mint, but she notices something moving in them.“

  • In fourth person, the story is about someone reading the book. “Kemi goes for the patch of wild mint. But there’s something moving in them . . . what is it?“

  • In fifth person, the story is narrated by you reading the book. “You turn the page. You read that Kemi is moving towards the patch of wild mint, in spite of an unidentified entity.“

  • In sixth person, the story is narrated by an unseen entity watching you read the book. “Kathee turns the page. As she reads, she raises her eyebrows slightly.“
