Thank you, Daniel Ek


But if you don’t take their human skin, what does the transformation back look like? I’m imagining the somewhat absurd scene of a werewolf anxiously arranging its tattered human skin around itself with its rough paws for the magic to do its stuff.


Do they need to find it and put it back on to transform back, or does that involve them shedding their wolf pelt and emerging in human form from within it?


My impression is that the werewolf transformation is entirely magical and not governed by real-world effects: one moment, the moon is out and you suddenly grow fur, a snout and uncontrollable predatory instincts, and when it’s over, the fur recedes/disappears, your facial geometry is restored and you just feel inexplicably tired. It’s conceivable that you’d shed some hair, which presumably wouldn’t magically vanish once it’s not attached to you, though.
As for vampires, I thought they just used their incisors to puncture their victims and then just sucked their blood out. Their teeth being plumbed into a vacuum pump seems somewhat too complicated.

And then there’s Orban trailing in the polls, and Putin with an incentive to help him out. It’s possible that we’ll see a false-flag attack on Hungary from Ukrainian territory, launched by Russian forces using captured Ukrainian equipment, shortly before the Hungarian election.


Some Slavic languages apparently also have distinct masculine and feminine versions of verbs, which match the speaker if in the first person. Apparently so does Icelandic (to the point where an Icelandic modernist novel was titled “When I Got Pregnant”, though in the masculine form)

Some VPNs like Mullvad have the option of padding out the flow of data to thwart traffic analysis, at the expense of speed.

*monkey paw curls* a new Siberian capital arises, as the capital of the newly independent, Beijing-aligned Republic of Siberia, once a weakened Russia’s ability to suppress the Siberian independence movement falters enough


Was reversecentaur.io taken or something?
If the goal is to support Russia while looking like supporting Ukraine, bombing Iran is a good way to go about it
