It’s not a super creative or interesting answer, but I’d be lying if I said anything other than the giant squid. That’s gotta be one of the wildest most alien things on our planet. Squid are already fascinatingly weird and now you’re telling me there are squids the size of a horse that fight whales at the bottom of the ocean? Amazing. Please stay down at the bottom of the sea where I am not. I know the colossal squid is bigger, but it’s cool that the giant one is probably the basis of some of our most enduring myths of sea monsters and the name “giant squid” just rolls off the tongue really well

Wikipedia has a couple of them! Sigourney Thayer was an American theatre producer born 1896, Sigourney Trask was an American missionary born 1849, and Sigourney Bandjar is a Surinamese footballer born 1984

I haven’t played Fortnite so I might be missing something, but glancing at screenshots and promotional stuff it looks like they’re consistently using white on red instead of red on white

Let’s be real we all already ignore electrum and it’s nowhere near as stupid as this

It is, genuinely, in the Geneva Conventions that nobody should use the red cross except for to designate medical staff and establishments that are protected under the conventions. The idea is to make sure that there is absolutely never any doubt that that symbol means anything else in order to minimise the risk to those people

Thank you for all your efforts!

JDAM is supposed to have a circular error probable of 5m and it’s an upgrade kit from 25 years ago. I can definitely believe that a much newer purpose-built weapon can do better than that. The idea of hitting the same spot with multiple bombs might not actually be that unlikely

A bit of a niche one: I am a big fan of the TTRPG Lancer, and a popular meme format is describing things in the game by cutting and pasting bits of the rulebook like a classic ransom letter

Yeah, it’s the name of Aragorn’s sword

Based on measuring the images, they seem about right. The F-250 is the full width of the image (1,002 px). The MX-5 is 605 px, so just over 60% of the length of the F-250. If we do the same maths with the lengths provided in the image (6.35 m and 3.95 m) we get 62%. If the scale is wrong it’s by a pretty negligible amount

Regarding the door handles, the MX-5’s door handles aren’t made for hands. Their hinge is parallel to the actual door hinge and they’re made to be used with one finger instead of a whole hand, so while you were right to notice the difference it’s actually because the MX-5’s door handles really are very unusually small

It’s also definitely possible that it also happens with stance breaks and the wiki failed to mention it

Huh, I thought they had “fixed” that bug. Originally the problem was that if you were playing co-op and/or had ashes summoned and then ended her first phase with a riposte, her second phase would spawn with 1 hp and not do the normal opening moves. There was a patch that was supposed to make ending her first phase with a riposte just… not do anything, because apparently that was the closest to an actual fix they could figure out. I have no idea why that patch change didn’t take effect for you (assuming that the riposte thing is what happened, it’s the only version of this glitch I know about)

It is! We could use redcurrants, blackcurrants, and blackberries though

To be fair to God, I’d probably also make a lot of mistakes if I tried to make a whole universe in a week on my first attempt

They’re closely connected with the other countries that have been powerful and influential in recent history (as in the past couple of centuries), most of which actually are grouped more northerly than other countries. It’s a cultural and diplomatic term rather than a strict geographic one

I have found it productive to make part of the character creation prompt a motivation for the main plot. Like tell me your class and backstory and all that, and then also tell me why you want to be on this adventure

I hope we get our act together and come back too. It’ll be a while or something dramatic happening before public sentiment will permit it, though. Many Brexit supporters have soured on Brexit itself, but acrually reversing course would be controversial

You’d think that as a country that describes itself as being made of four countries, we’d be more on board with the idea

That hasn’t become any more or less true in recent years, though. It’s worth asking why people are now thinking of the idea differently than they did for the past several thousand
