I guess I have to agree because it supports what I've said all along: pie is the best food.

Pie transcends cubic barriers. It cannot be constrained to merely one construct.

There are different levels of understanding.

I'm trained in physical sciences. I studied at university and then worked ~8 years for a research department and at one point learned 2D NMR and how to run molecular simulations on a supercomputer. I'm well aware of the challenges of winning grants against colleagues and getting papers published and surviving peer review and then hoping your work gets noticed outside your weird little niche.

My buddy is a schoolteacher. He can run circles around me with arithmetic and explain the scientific method in rap format. Kids eat it up! But he's probably never done a gradient integral (not that I remember how either) or contributed to a collegiate press release.

We're both ostensibly working with the same core principles but the reality ends up quite different. Context matters.

Hideous, but rather accessible.

C'mon, we all end up at /dev/null eventually. Just don't gaze long into it or it might gaze into you.

I've never not dreamed of having my own skeleton army.

Everything you can buy is also available for free.

Iffff you're willing to spend many many hours grinding against artificial RNG and pretending your time has zero value.

But yeah enough patience and persistence can technically get you almost everything (I stopped after 50 warframes).

You know, I'll just pull out my phone and look it u-- Oh.

Auf Englisch, nennen wir das lettuce 😆

But yeah, better to pack that and the tomato separately. And really, wrap the rest of the hamburger in parchment paper then a layer of foil. That's basically how fast food places do it but better. It's also ideal to pack the bun separately to really avoid sogginess.

Aw, thanks! I feel like you're a lovely person.
