My review of cubing: fun as ever, but hard on the wrists.

@alexaltair I had the vague impression that they aren't yet great for the domains of math that people actually work in.

@joshyou Hey

What's the probability that Musk will be head of twitter on January 1st 2023?

Oh also Words Bubble Up is nice and colourful (Mishima film also has nice use of colour)

OK it's actually also that I have context about Japan and its culture.
