Reply to comment by Silverfrost_01 in On Facebook, Visual Misinfo Widespread. In the runup to the 2020 U.S. Presidential election visual misinformation was widespread across the platform, and that it was highly asymmetric across party lines, with right-leaning images five to eight times more likely to be misleading. by Wagamaga
Yeah that’s worse. I feel like people can misinterpret that to mean 500 times.

Our moon was named by the same type of people that have a boy and girl and refer to them as brother and sister to the other one.
“Go see what Brother is doing.” “Timmy, please make sure to look after Sister.”

My favorite is when you’re out camping somewhere away from lights and know where to look for star clusters or other DSOs and you can perceive them until you look directly at them because of the whole rods and cones eye thing.
