This is the weekly visible open thread. Post about anything you want, ask random questions, whatever. ACX has an unofficial subreddit , Discord , and bulletin board , and in-person meetups around the world . 95% of content is free, but for the remaining 5% you can subscribe here . Also: 1: New bans for Timothy W, Bruce P , Anna M , Melchizedek , Phil T , Bi_Gates , and Finnydo . New warnings for Cerastes , John of Orange , Eremolalos , Robert L , Richard C , and Fooooo . Warnings don’t necessarily mean I don’t like you; they could also mean I like you enough that you have escaped a ban you otherwise deserve. And everyone, please avoid posting inflammatory comments where you don’t explain your reasoning or add anything helpful to the conversion. 2: Some link corrections: Canada’s population center may not be in Michigan . Nisean horses might be fake ? (although clearly by Roman/Byzantine times there were specific horses people thought were Nisean) Australia’s National Sorry Day is minor and not helpful . Maybe I was metamistaken in saying I was mistaken about the bonobo study , I don’t even know anymore and will have to look into this in more depth.
