Renee on NYC vs SF
Quote Tweet
Topic I was assigned for the @vgr 1-opinion-per-like challenge. Upper bound is 100 hot takes. I lived in NY for 30yrs, SF for 8. I think I have more SF followers so I’ll get fewer likes if I start w/ “Aside from 🥑 & 🍅, NYC is generally better; it’s a far easier place to live.” twitter.com/vgr/status/120…

64. Lisa on scientific misinformation and crackpottery
Quote Tweet
1/ A lot of people blame scientific misinformation and crackpottery on a lack of scientific literacy or critical thinking skills. For much of scientific misinformation, it is not a lack of information that is causing the problem nor a lack of education

Gonna take a longer time with this thread, but inspired by both @ReclusiveWizard and a text from @G3RRYT: 100 opinions on Magic. Starting off with a fucking zinger: 1. Old status based OP systems were run by pros who broke floor rules via social norms around concessions.
