curious to hear y'all's suggestions for the worst possible pasta shape

(Assume that "pasta" needs to be made of sheets or strands of dough with enough surface area relative to thickness so that they can be cooked.)

My math prof puts this on the instruction page of all his exams

[ID: screenshot of black text on white background saying “an exam is just another means of communication between you and me to help me understand what you have learned so that I can provide you with guidance on how to improve. It is not a measure on your worth as a person nor your intelligence or aptitude as a student. Just give this your best try. END ID]

Want a private and secure (and inclusive) period tracker? Use Euki.

No cloud or third party access: all your data stays only on your device and can be fully deleted by deleting the app

No account that links with phone numbers or emails

Ability to easily wipe your history, either as needed, or on a rotating schedule

Ability to set up PIN protection

Information on accessing abortion, how to have a safe self managed medical abortion, STIs and contraceptive options

Can use to track other symptoms like cramps, headaches, breast tenderness, and mood

Let's you specify what kind of sex you had on what days, and if they were protected from pregnancy, STIs or both.

It was developed by the folks at Ibis Reproductive Health, a nonprofit that specializes in sexual and reproductive health education and advocacy.

I know we're all rightly feeling jumpy about privacy and reproductive health, but as a healthcare provider, I use folks' cycle histories every day to help diagnose and manage health concerns. Self collected data is often invaluable when it comes to gauging pregnancy risk or identifying abnormal bleeding that requires further evaluation.

Some people are going to prefer a paper journal and that's fine, but if you want an easy and secure app, I highly recommend Euki.

I love when you’re reading multiple fics by the same author and you start to spot all the phrases and adjectives they like to use

"let's see how my good friend Will Laurence is doing," I say as I hit play on the audiobook, knowing full well that the answer is "not great"

This is the best idea in the history of film.

I know next to nothing about the Addam’s Family’s greater canon, but the fact that Lurch is visually so strongly based on Frankenstein’s Creature makes me so happy, because it’s the happy ending the Creature deserves and I can so imagine it? You have the Creature at the end of the novel who is lonely and who has resigned himself that he will never be loved and that all humans will reject him on sight and then he meets the Addam’s Family and they are the first ones who don’t attack him or run away screaming - they either don’t say anything or even more likely, they are high-key excited about a Creature put together from corpses. That’s probably the highest Addam’s aspiration, to be more than 1 corpse. So they take him in and he has a family for the first time. What a crossover. What over-thinking on my part. I love it.

Uncharacteristically political take, I know, but I personally think if you want to blame any particular group of voters for Trump getting elected it should probably be the people who voted for Trump
