Yep, MW and Andromeda merger will be a “major merger” that will have huge effects on both galaxies. The ones I work with are small (“dwarf”) galaxies that have a much smaller effect on the big one that eats them.
Testing it now, seems to work pretty well. Aside from search, which you said you’re working on, links don’t seem to work? It would also be nice to have somewhere to see replies to your comments/post. It would also be nice to see what instance each community comes from. Thanks for your hard work!
I was big in fandom spaces circa 2002-2008 and it’s pretty crazy to me how much the culture has changed. Livejournal is where I got introduced to the concepts of social justice and intersectionality and all that, and it’s morphed into something pretty weird.
I’m personally kind of a prude and am uncomfortable with oversexualization but I don’t think this puritan, regressive path is the way to go.
Have you read the books? It’s so weird to me that they had three books worth of material and then crammed them all into one season and made up their own stuff.
I have pretty severe ADHD too, and while I don’t enjoy driving like some people do, it’s not as scary as I thought and I’m not constantly getting into accidents or anything. Don’t let that be the thing that holds you back.
I’ve made it before and it’s really easy! The hardest part is kneading the dough which takes ~10 minutes. It lasts for about a week in the fridge but you can freeze it too. The simplest version is just vital wheat gluten+water but you can add all sorts of flavoring and seasonings. If you want some more complicated but amazing ones, check out Gaz Oakley (avant-garde vegan).
Apparently I am really sensitive to motion smoothing/video interpolation/“soap opera effect” that TVs do now. I’ve pointed out that people have the setting on so many times and most of them never noticed things looked weird.
-Herd Mentality, where everyone tries to guess what the most popular answer to a question is
-Loaded Questions, where everyone answers a question and someone has to figure out who put what answer (both of these are really great for getting to know people better)
-Monikers, great for a larger group, a mix between taboo and charades. Super super fun.
-Mind the Gap. Great for mixed age groups like families. It’s like trivial pursuit but you have to answer questions from different time periods.
I’m working on my Astrophysics PhD. I study “galactic cannibalism” aka how galaxies grow and change by eating smaller galaxies. My big focus is on teaching and outreach though rather than research.
ME series is my absolute favorite! Hope you have fun with ME2, it’s a blast.

I love mysteries, so I’ve read a lot of like James Patterson and Janet Evanovich, and the like, starting from when I was pretty young.
Is Prey the one with the nanobots? I think I read it around middle school as well, along with Congo.
Have you read any James Rollins or Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child? Some of their stuff might be up your alley.

I remember this show! It started off so cool but then became absolutely ridiculous pretty quickly.
I imagine a lot of them were Apollo users, who are upset about the loss of their app and the way Reddit has treated its creator.

Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It’s the third in a really awesome, incredibly well thought-out sci-fi series.
