Tuesday: My paper draft is plausibly done.

So I guess I'm spending time reading other people's papers tomorrow to see what I can contribute.

Get with the program, Pokemon Go notifications.  I knew this yesterday!

In random Pokemon math: I clicked my buddy Haunter today, and saw that I've walked 36.5 km with him.  My total distance is 58.5 km, so I've walked 62.3% of my total with Haunter.  This made me wonder how this compares to the time.  Pokemon Go came out on July 6, and buddies were released on September 2.  These are 160 and 58 days in the past, so I've walked about twice as much since buddies (as buddies are only 36.25% of the time).  I should probably look at the statistics of where my Pokemon were caught, as well.

• Team Skull.
• A perfect Rowlet.
• This is a bit "conspiracy theory"-y, but I'll flag this post as a "check in the future" to see if Gulen does get extradited.
• Godzilla.
• How is this even a question?  Saturnalia and Yule both predate Christmas.  And why shouldn't people celebrate a holiday, even if they know the popular interpretation is dumb.
• Speaking of how popular interpretations are dumb.
• Finishing up Christmas links, Tumblr points out how to make shitty carols awesome.
• I don't like bugs, but rent-paying sentient bugs who watch netflix are better.
• Literally just for "I'm pretty sure there's an entire book on the topic 'why not Silmarils'".
• Cats are jerks.
• Do you need Sailor V telling puns?  The answer is yes, click the damn link.
