    A very good article explaining why being clever and informed doesn’t help you think and act dispassionately:

    Dan M. Kahan

    Why Smart People Are Vulnerable to Putting Tribe Before Truth

    Why Smart People Are Vulnerable to Putting Tribe Before Truth

    Science literacy is important, but without the parallel trait of "science curiosity," it can lead us astray

    So the curvature I've seen out the cockpit of a Tornado at FL Nose Bleed is just optical illusion through the perspex, I guess 🤪

    Two Catholic school nuns in California have admitted to embezzling about $US500,000 ($694, 457 AUD) and using the funds over the years for travel and gambling in Las Vegas, their order said on Monday.

    Sisters Mary Margaret Kreuper and Lana Chang, who are said to be best friends, took the money from tuition, fees and donations at St. James Catholic School in Torrance, south of Los Angeles.

    Clearly among the majority of Americans who think the central message of the Bible is that "God helps those who help themselves"

    If you were a billionaire CEO who wanted to create the world’s most audaciously advanced concert venue, what would you do? If the answer is “Stick 157,000 ultra-directional speakers, a three-and-a-half-acre spherical ultra-high-res video screen and vibrating floors into a enormous dome built from scratch,” you’re thinking like actual billionaire James Dolan, whose Madison Square Garden Company broke ground on the MSG Sphere in Las Vegas in September.

    @hooroo A friend of mine attended a preview screening of it in the UK last night / tonight (?)

    Looks excellent for its type of genre.

    I like in the article how it said the cameraman turned away when he made the one move that was either going to mean success or death.

    I don't quite no what to think of people like that. Whether to be in awe of them, or wonder what the fuck is wrong with them. Bit of both really. Sheesh.
