In the nordic countries, we used to have the Yulebuck (similar to Krampus of recent internet fame). Here are some images from Sweden (Julbock):




And from Finland (Joulupukki; these are definitely modern drawings made to look old but whatever):





He is called Julebuk in Danish & Norwegian (bokmål). I was hoping to find one by Louis Moe but my googling is proving fruitless. Anyway, with time he has become bowdlerized into an entirely harmless buck made from straw:



In the Swedish town of Gävle, they've built a several meters tall straw Julbock every year since 1966. It has become an illegal tradition to set fire to it, which has so far happened 37 times.

The catholic church isn’t on that chart though? Just a bunch of characters from popular christmas-related stories.

The one I assume you’re referring to is said, in the first books written about him, to have used violence to shut down banks and to have told his followers to give away all their money, so classifying him as an anti-capitalist character does not seem unreasonable.

Plus the Church actually is anti-capitalist in the sense of wanting to return to the pre-capitalist era

It's a model of when we can multitask; we can multitask if tasks don't overlap on any of 3/4 dimensions: modality, coding, response, (and visual channel).

Why are the response and code dimension in the same direction? Why is there an unnecessary stage dimension? What even is the visual channel dimension ovaling into the visual modality? Why is this a box? A box suggests that as long as we don't overlap on any one dimension, we're good, while the model states we need to avoid overlap on all of them. gently caress you, that's why.

I worked in academic psychology and I knew that this was going to be some bullshit just from the thumbnail. Psychologists are really really bad at not just theory, but visualising theory.

I feel like I get why this chart is like this but wow it is not at all clear.

(the segments with smaller listed fractions are larger because there are more of those people on the crew overall, so the fraction is how much each individual person earns while the size of the slice is the total share of the portion that goes to that part of the crew)

Articulate your needs. I'm here to listen.

From a few spot checks, it looks like the relative sizes are correct in that the Mates 2% piece is about double the Boatsteerers 1%.

The issue is that the use of a pie chart visually implies that the captain took on ~33% of the total income instead of the 7% that they actually did.

I'm guessing the best option would be to use a bar graph. Maybe normalize everything to multiples of the lowest pay group.

To be fair he says that West coast girls are tanned, so that includes California as well. I suspect it wasn't his intention to lump the pnw in that.
