Hypothesis

Observations:

  • “Right” policies tend to be more reactionary, focusing on preserving the past.
  • “Left” policies tend to be more revolutionary, focusing on preparing for the future.

Conclusion: even if we assume Rightists and Leftists are about equally likely (on average) to be in the wrong about any particular issue at any particular point in time, we would still expect societies as a whole to gradually shift Leftward–which is, in fact, what history shows.

Thoughts?

It’s a Fact

My spouse: “I’m probably biased, but I genuinely think we have two of the cutest dogs in the world.”

Me: “You are absolutely biased, and also correct.”

I’m Slow!

Undertale.

Under. Tale.

Under, like…underground. Like in a cave.

Tale, like…a story.

An underground story.

A cave story, if you will.

HOW DID IT TAKE ME TEN YEARS TO GET THAT REFERENCE???

Another Open Letter

To everybody who thinks “not being into politics” makes you neutral, Deltarune would like to have a word with you:

A friendly monster shaped like an electrical outlet talks to a group of heroes: "If you didn't know, an evil ruler is taking over this world."
A friendly monster shaped like an electrical outlet talks to a group of heroes: "I don't really like politics, so I have no opinion on this."

My Daughter Taught Me an Easy Way to Draw the Millennium Falcon

Two simple but evocative line drawings of the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars, nose-on view. The one on the right is fat and lopsided.
Her drawing is the one on the left. Obviously.

(No one else taught her this trick, by the way. She came up with it on her own.)

Better Startup Idea?

Sometimes when I’m on the road, I really wish I had a car horn I could honk at just myself.

Frustrating day? Feeling sleepy? Missed your exit? Bad traffic that isn’t anybody’s fault in particular?

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE(itsnotyouitsme)EEEEEEEEEP!

Still Practicing My Selfies

I think my composition’s improving, but getting the pose to look natural is tough!
