@rigormorphis osmoles are a unit of measurement to determine how much of measurement to describe the concentration of solutes (stuff that dissolves in water) in a given solution. so just off the bat they’re definitely using it as pseudo-scientific babble bc units of measurements are not substances lmao

i suppose technically if water is 100% water and your juice is 95% water, then an 8 oz glass of juice contains like half an ounce less water and is therefore “less hydrating” but like. 1) 7.6 ounces of water you actually drink is better than 8 oz you don’t 2) this can be trivially solved by drinking very slightly more juice

@distel house dad does make sense (by analogy to housewife / househusband) but it definitely rings a little odd. But i dont know many stay at home dads, so it may just be that i’m not familiar with the terminology they’re using?

@Padres team GB was also b bad but they can tie for last in uniform design

@coriander japan definitely had one bc i remember looking it up lmao and i’m p sure a few other teams did as well

@SportsGoblin yeah we also got jumpscared by it last game 😅 my best guess is that its a “hats off” motion — some fraction of people always use their hats for it and the percentage seems to go up when they’re more excited

@mythologybot not being able to touch iron probably counts, sure

@wallhackio i feel like theres a waluigi joke in here somewhere but i’m too lazy to find it

@alyssa i passed your question on to @Lady as our houses resident pokexpert:

@SportsGoblin i think the human element of baseball is good but like, we’re already exaggerating all the flukey randomness of baseball by playing single games here instead of a series we can’t take that kinda nonsense from the refs on top of it all

@SportsGoblin yeah i have now gone from “yeah abs is probably good and interesting” to “we need abs in all tournaments and levels of play starting yesterday” over that

@kate are you discovering this by making mouth go numb?

@thebiologistisn what do your blue beans look like cooked? when i was little my grandmother grew blue green beans and i was always so disappointed when they turned back to green during cooking 😂

@curatedjenny growing up it was always breakfast in bed for mum, initially made by my dad but increasingly by us kids as we got older

@ljwrites @titania yeahhh attorneys for insurance companies definitely fall into an acab adjacent territory where even if youre a decent person normally you’re perpetuating a bad system professionally

but i dont think they’re worse than the doctors they consult with and i *mostly* dont see ppl saying doctors are an intrinsically evil profession the way you see pop culture w/lawyers

@ljwrites i feel like the mainstream depiction of a bad lawyer is like, defense attorneys hired by rich mafiosos to let them get out of murder charges but that’s maybe 0.0001 percent of all lawyers
