No, they clearly drew a guy with hands. You could probably even call him Mr. Hands.
They translated “west”, but not “new”.
Proven to have no effect in fact.
I thought the blue light was the problem.
I’m going with this one: Batman blows Robin on yon Gotham bridge; Vows Gordon’s next.
But wiki has a list:

Looks like it’s mostly in ROY G BIV order, although you’ve got black and brown up front, then they drop indigo and add gray and white at the end.
It’s a US vs UK (and probably others) distinction. The ( ) are almost never called brackets in the US, unless it’s a regional thing I’m not aware of. Also the [ ] didn’t get used in any math classes I was in the US up through calculus except for matrices.
There’s just no way rote learning is easier than mnemonics unless you have a photographic memory.
Shit, I still remember the order of taxonomic ranks after seeing the phrase “King Phillip came over from Germany stoned” written in a used bio textbook 30 years ago when we never even made it to that chapter to officially study in class. I guarantee I never would’ve remembered the list “kingdom phylum class order family genus species”.

I always find it interesting when comparing cuisine between cultures of stuff that exists in different places but only eaten in one (or a few) of them. Like ok, I get that if you’re not used to much seafood in general you maybe will eat some grilled salmon but you’re not gonna be eating the guts out of crabs or lobsters or whatever. But then there’s something like burdock root, which grows in the US, doesn’t have a strong taste, and is just like various other root vegetables we do eat (although not as sweet as something like a carrot). But the US doesn’t eat it while east Asia does.
2·2 months agoThey really missed an opportunity to get the semaphore to look like the letters they represent. At least get the I, K, and T to line up (V gets a pass because at least that pattern goes to the U).
I’d say critical thinking is divorced from any one subject. You can learn it in a humanities context just as easily as a scientific one.
I don’t get that place. It looks like there are 2 users, and the mod is posting lefty articles and the admin seems to be in opposition to that coming from the right.

Just put a speaker in the box
2·4 months agoMaybe people near Tokyo are shittier about reviews? I dunno what to tell you. Guess I haven’t spent much time outside Tohoku.
First random city I scrolled to north of Tokyo (in Fukushima):
“Dishonoring” the chef makes it sound like there are still samurai running around. I don’t think substitutions at restaurants rise to that level.
The trick is, there’s a lot of those
