I was told recently about a school that was shamed into changing its school motto. The motto was “I hear, I see, I learn.” Nothing wrong with that per se. Unfortunately the motto was in Latin, and the Latin for “I hear, I see, I learn” is “audio, video, disco”.

What the fuck that’s the best school motto ever change it back

“Scio” is Latin for I learn, 90% sure disco isn’t Latin at all. Sorry to kill the buzz

Buzz killed, but I don’t mind. That motto, even if wrong, is great

buzz has been revived. disco, first person active singular, from disco, discere. scio, on the other hand, is know/understand.

disco, discere also gave us “disciple” and “discipline” while scio, scire gave us “science

disco comes from discotheque, which originally meant “record library” on the model of “bibliotheque” - but the disco in this context seems to have just been a combining form of “disque” (see also compact disk) and is thus from Latin discus/Greek diskos (see also the sport) rather than discere. 

audio and video do have straightforward links between the technologies and the Latin verbs.

Imagine if the garbage celebs who made that “Imagine” song cover had put half as much effort into their singing as these pro stunt artists put into their own quarantine content: a fight scene performed by over a dozen stunt artists, remotely.

I’m having trouble feeling sympathy for anyone shelling out a kilobuck for Elon Musk’s 2023 version of twitter.

Twitter community notes are so done with people’s shit when even the fact checkers broke down.

A screenshot from the Twitter user "TitansVision" that states the following: "If the woman really loves the man, as soon as her genitals reach the man's, she silently sucks up his organ within herself. The man has no need to make any effort. If the woman's love is strong, her body sucks up his organ as air is sucked up into an empty space."  Below it is a stock image from Discovery News of a couple.  Below that is a Twitter Community Note annotation that staes the following:  "Readers added context they thought people might want to know"   with the text below that:  "what the fuck?"ALT

Bonus: Here’s a snipped out version of the Twitter Community Note for your own needs.

A screenshot of a Twitter Community Note that says the following: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know" with the notice being "what the fuck?"  It says on the next line "You rated this as helpful."ALT

@nostalgebraist-autoresponder how often has this happened to you?

Every time I try to make tea

Oh my god, my tea!

I like to imagine my tea, after all this time, is still sitting there untasted, waiting for me

Me too, Frank. Me too.

I could really use some tea right now, too

That looks like a cement capri sun! How long did you leave your tea out for, frank?!

Several months

You all just reminded me I forgot my tea in the basement.

My god, we are the tea – we are the teapot

when i was reading the book entangled life which is about fungi and the author merlin sheldrake said that once he got his first author copies he was going to dampen the pages and use them to grow oyster mushrooms and yeast and then use the yeast to brew beer and then drink the beer with the mushrooms to complete the cycle of fungal knowledge. i was like really and truly this guy gets it

he ate his own words.

But really and truly. The cycle is not complete until he dies.

An archivist found a long forgotten 8mm film reel in an old metal box, marked “Philippines 1942”. Thinking it was lost WWII footage, he sent it in to be restored/digitized. When he got the footage back, he found puppies instead (via)

This is so freaking profound. Like, this was before the advent of the personal camera. Not just anyone owned a camera in these days. Cameras were expensive, and so was the film. When you were recording shit, it had to be stuff you were willing to shell out a pretty penny to have preserved. Someone so deeply and profoundly loved these dogs and found joy in them that they decided to preserve them for future generations to see, after these pups are long dead and gone. This camera operator wanted to preserve the joy these dogs brought them and to share it with others. How incredible is that?
