Teapigs - one of the best out there!

If you've never done this, I suggest giving it a try:

A medjool date that's been soaked in hot water, then take it out of the water, place it above a bar of dark chocolate of the same length, and eat it together (like nigiri) in one bite.

I say it should be dark because the date provides all the sugar and milkyness you'll need.

You'll want to chew on that forever 🤤

Didn't this exist already?

Man what a throwback! I really liked this one too.

It's precisely rotation through the higher dimension that cannot be undone in the lower one. So.. nice thought, I think?

Wow, so it is indeed hieroglyph.

Would it be accurate to say more people would know what the latter tastes like than the former?

I'm about three-quarters through Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, and I wonder how she would interpret how reality played out in this country, being that her biggest fears would come from the value system she thought of as the solution.

"Anne Frank's Diary, too sexual? That sounds like 'Tucker Carlson, too athletic'" I lol'd.

That's quite a big instance you got there

That a truth of our time is that the fate of so many rests on these relatively few idiotic swing voters speaks to just how terrible the state of affairs have become.

They're bringing back people from the dead when America used to be great

What other way is there to respond to this?

No way Borts and Chunus are in the same grade.

"I don't know when that ends". I remember this feeling when I lost my own mother 15 years ago. A friend told me "It's not really about getting over it, but getting through it." It stuck with me - I hope it may help to hear.

Sit-down to Stand-up desk!

That's great you can have that dynamic with your family and that it's healthy for all of you. I feel like it's healthy for me, but my own fam is in the category of "getting upset for not contacting them frequently enough". It's like they take it personally that I can live my life but not need to be up to date on every moment of theirs.

That said, I've found that the only progress I've made is by beginning to draw boundaries and trying to be consistent at keeping them. It's not a wonderful dynamic, but more distance has certainly made it healthier for me.

I'm here.

Lol @ the CAPS. Thanks for sharing!

Seriously though isn't that what making everything "great again" in this country is referring to?

Lol, the irony of literally spelling out the missing word. 😆

Interesting perspective. There has never been a regret - not even once? Are you the type that wouldn't mind if someone told you a surprise party was being planned for you? Just wondering.

That expansion at an accelerated rate - that's just so eerie when you think about it. The furthest objects we can see right now will slip away out of reach forever for the next generation, and so on. It's crazy to think that as time goes on, there will be less and less universe to observe.

Thanks for sharing! Avoiding major plot twists, in our era, seems to require constant vigilance.

Well the definition of greed is:

intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth, power, or food.

Both "I want more" and "I don't want to share" are a type of greed. Even if the definition is more like needs more of something, not wanting to share feels like a form of needing more time than you need with an object. At least that's how I'm looking at it.

Interesting, so for you it was about reaching the point of nonconsent. Glad you had the pleasure to break it down for your coworkers 😁

Did you try to save it all on the way down and make things worse?

I can only imagine it, but I feel you on both. 😩

Same as it ever was?

That sounds like such a neat childhood! I wish I had those documentaries growing up.

Especially species of plants and animals they rely on.

Occupants come with the planet package.. so wouldn't that lower its rank?

I thought people were generally into ass-rocks?

Yes that's right! (With Heather Anne Campbell, Nick Wiger and Matt Apodaca) That's true - it made me try all kinds of games. And for some, I feel I wish I'd have tried them without knowing what was coming. Though I wouldn't have tried it without knowing... so it's a bit of a paradox.

I think it's cool you let your brother experience it raw like that, since you couldn't.

But the light that reaches us is constantly getting stretched (red-shifted), so I'm not sure that our bubble is growing. Instead when they're stretched too thin, we won't be able to see it. I'm not 100% sure on the expansion rate of the universe and the pace of red shifting. Also, eventually all the galaxies are expected to be pushed so far away from each other due to the pressures exerted by Dark Energy, that soon we'll only be able to see just the stars of our Milky Way.
