I’m almost certain my dad is the best player of a mobile game called Radiant in the world. He’s beaten the game dozens of times, never losing a life, multiple times only ever using one weapon for each weapon, etc.

By far the biggest source of outright homophobia I encounter on a regular basis is straight “ally” women reacting to bisexual men and their experiences.
Basically everyone has a “John Lennon beat his wife” style fact that they cant stop themselves from sharing if anything even tangentially related comes up in conversation

I am a volunteer street medic. The wounded tend to find me and I tend to happen upon them. I once decided to take a toll road (which I never do) and happened upon a gaggle of people looking over a bridge. Motorcyclist got hit and thrown 20 feet sideways and 30 feet off the bridge

when segregation stopped being legal and prestigious universities had to accept people of color, fraternities and sororities allowed you to concentrate actual networking and social/economic power into highborn whites

yup tohu and bohu (pronounced toe-hue and bow-hue) was a sort of onomatopoeic thing too - think “topsy turvy”, basically meaning “all wack and chaotic and disordered”.
At least one English translation uses “welter and waste” instead of “without form and void”.
