Absolutely LIVING for this "imperial vs. metric" baking measurement change. Do USAmericans not learn the decimal system in school?!?

#i don't even know #imperial #metric #fractions #decimals #ya'll #absolutely wild #SUCH a #hot take #on the #american education system #also #why the heck didn't “tablespoons” change? #where's our ml? #“does the rest of the entire world use tablespoons?” #“no idea. but lets go ahead and change that fraction to a decimal just in case” #“and not change the actual unit of measurement at all”

Fact = Truth?

The other day I was eating dinner and started pondering the three hot sauce bottles in front of me.  Three bottles wasn’t out of the ordinary for our family (one very spicy, one more mild and another with a distinct or exceptional taste)... What caught my eye was the different printing on the labels.  Take a look at this picture and see if you are as intrigued as I was.

Each of the labels notes a volume of 5 fluid ounces - but they differ when converting that amount to milliliters.  One says 147, the next 148 and the final 150mL (and two are even the same brand).  What on earth was happening here?  I can understand different answers to more nebulous questions, but converting from one unit to another should have a straightforward answer, right?  Not exactly.

The precise conversion of 5oz equals 147.86765mL.  So everyone one of the labels was wrong, in one interpretation.  Except they were also each correct, in other interpretations.  The first label did what is known as truncating, when decimals (or some other agreed-upon place value) is dropped off.  Everything past the decimal point was ignored, so 147.86765 = 147.  The second bottle rounded to the nearest whole mL, so 147.86765 = 148.  The third bottle rounded to the nearest 5 or 10 mL, meaning that 147.86765 = 150.c

Okay, so each of these facts - even though they were different and arguably contradictory - are also true!  There is a lesson in reading labels and being careful when purchasing or consuming products, especially with respect to marketing and nutrition.  But the lesson I leave with is around assumptions toward others.  It is very easy for me to *know* that the way I see the world is correct and anyone who disagrees is wrong.  Heck, I *know* there are 148mL of hot sauce in the bottle; those other two bottles are wrong.

Life and truth is not always so black and white, so wrong and right, so cut and dry.  My truth may have just as much validity as your truth, even when those truths seem to contradict each other.  There are classic puzzles where two perspectives are shown to both be true, just seen from a different angle.  “6” could be “9“, a duck could be a rabbit, there may be 4 or 3 pegs in an optical illusion...

These are all useful but each falls short of the reality that it takes more than merely turning our heads to see another point of view.  The task is never so simple as acknowledging a different rounding technique or flipping a picture.  I can never fully know the life you have lived, the experiences you had or the understanding you bring to the world.  Just as you can never fully know my experiences, my life or my understandings.  But we can try.

We can approach the world and each other with a sense of humility, wonder and openness: humility that our experiences aren’t necessarily the (capital “t”) Truth for everyone, wonder at the multiplicity of realities and understandings, openness about what we might learn from hearing another truth.  When I share my story and my understanding with you, and you share with me, that is when we start to get a better sense of the great mystery which is each of our lives.  And that is when we can start to know each other.

One more example comes to mind, also about hot sauce.  Think about your scale for spiciness: what is mild, medium, spicy or too spicy?  Whatever you consider spicy is true, but I’m also sure it is different from what I consider spicy, which is also a truth.

Don’t let your truth be the only truth in the world.  For you to be correct doesn’t mean someone else has to be wrong.  We can all be correct, even when we don’t agree.

this is professional influencer-level framing. this is the EXACT spot they needed to take this photograph to make it seem like the gävlebocken has not been decimated by birds.

the angles. the lighting. gävlebocken is about to start doing sponsored posts.

One little white lie, one tiny fib. When the King asks why you're so eager to get back to your own kingdom you give him the usual, "My family, I'm just eager to see them again."

"Family," He rolls the word over in his mouth, like it has a foul taste, "Husband?" You nod, though you've never been married, it's easier being a married woman on the road. This also seems to displease him. "Children?" Your hesitance betrays you, and you attempt to cover it with another hasty nod. Though you can tell by Price's smile he doesn't believe it.

You don't worry about it, push the questions far from your mind in favor of your work. It's only when you're laid out in the King's bed, his fat cock bullying its way into your aching cunt, that you remember your little fib. Price smiles, his lips curling over his teeth as he chuckles out a strained breath. He drags his fingers around the base of his cock, while you adjust to the burning stretch the overwhelming feeling of being filled completely. He pulls his hand away only to drag it down your stomach, let you see the blood and slick where it stains your soft skin.

"Little liar," He chides, pulling out and pushing back into you with a heady groan, "but don't worry, we'll have you bred and wed soon enough."

dazai breathlessly watching his partner in an inhuman, corrupted state and still finding him beautiful has to be another kind of love

#literally seven years later from that line in fifteen. it's the same fucking expression #“even dazai forgot how to breathe as he watched the storm that was chuuya decimate the battlefield” #look at the life in his eyes. the mesmerized expression. he has seen this hundreds of times and it is still beautiful to him every time #the awe. “that's my partner.” #ahem anyway. i reread this volume like once every week. it's my favorite one. #bsd #skk
