Besides the overall "TikTok Psychology" vibe she exudes


which is extremely off-putting since so many people claim autism now or casually use phrases like "OMG I'm so autistic" because of what they see on TikTok, which in turn minimizes our struggle


she also has an understanding of the terms "ego" and "ego death" that is extremely basic and pedestrian, but she attempts to come across as well-learned in the area. If she would instead present her ideas as just that, her ideas, it would be a lot easier to hear her points.

That said, I find myself agreeing with her central point: masking is exhausting. But exhaustion and masking are not "ego death".

1730s - magic, burn the witch!

Sir Bedevere: And what do you burn, apart from witches?

Peasant: More witches!

I guess I was somehow trying to make an expression that ended in the Klingon word for "who", thinking maybe is was a pun in Klingon that meant something along the lines of door closing in your face.

What's the punchline? (I'm dumb)

Like the HN commenters say, these paints are nothing like Vanta Black and other similar coatings.

I was an IT tech in college, and one of our biology professors had a stack of ancient computers in a closet specifically because the electron microscope in his lab had to have a computer as a controller connected to it that ran Windows 3.1 and which had extremely specific hardware specs. He'd Frankenstein them together as parts quit, and was always on the lookout for this very specific computer on eBay. I had to get his microscope back running once by installing Windows and the controller software on the "new" computer, and it was actually really enjoyable. Brought back a ton of memories. But yeah, he is just buying time until his perfectly good microscope quits working all because he ran out of parts.
