    This is exactly how I use tarot! It’s not a magical technique of divination, it’s a collection of targeted vagueries that help your brain frame a concept in a way you wouldn’t naturally conceive. You make the answers, tarot is just the conceptual equivalent of picking up an object and inspecting it to figure out what it is.










  • So I did the napkin math, if you pick two random pills and two random pills, there’s a 19.05% chance to get something objectively bad, a 28.57% chance of getting something useless, and a 52.38% chance of getting something objectively good for a total 80.95% chance to get something not bad. Assuming infinite loops are banned and you don’t have a genuine interest in a given pill, 4 random pills is the best call.

    There’s also a 2.27% chance of getting 2 random pills on each of those 4 tries.


  • Yeah, plus the diamond cartel probably doesn’t need competition, they have a hard enough time keeping the rock relevant.

    You’d be better off asking for shoeboxes of more common materials so you could skirt the inevitable questions on the matter and not get flagged as a counterfeiter or something. Though personally, the majority of things I’m interested in owning can fit in a shoebox anyways so why not cut out the middleman?
