"but make your choice. my leader is leaving on a plane in five minutes, you can reach and stop him, but agent argent is still in the hotel room, and i sleepd aa poison in her last meal. find the antidote or she'll be dead in five minutes. choose weather to stop him or save her."
me managed to inject the antidote, saving her life. "thanks. could yet get the handcuffs off?" she laughed, making a motion with her still-restrained hands. "you gave up tripwire's leader to save me."
Yesterday, while watching a streamer, I learned something cool about the Eiffel Tower. The 72 names engraved on the Eiffel Tower belong to French scientists, engineers, and mathematicians who supported the building process. These golden letters are located on the first level (the lowest platform) of the tower, just beneath the balcony that runs around the structure.
Other things I learned about it: The stairs only go up to the 2nd floor. After that you have to take an elevator. The original spiral staircase was sold for scrap.
Was just thinking, when someone says think outside the box....why does it have to be a box? Why can't it be anything you want? Like a closet? Or a door? Hehe
Why did we decide creativity requires escaping from something? Why do so many of our metaphors for creativity imply that ordinary thinking is a restriction?
It's because it hinges on the idea that everyone wants to be ordinary (aka "normal") and that being anything other should be punishable socially. It stems from imperial modes of thinking that harm people not white-cis-straight-abled-perisex-etc because the idea of normal is centred on "some guy"-isms
