At this point it is remarkably refreshing to see a childhood hero still be based. Feels like a breath of reality in a stuffy box of hypocrisy and pretension.

My sweet Bobo. More angel than cat.

How about a bag with a big dollar sign on it? I even worked at a bank for years and never saw one.

Thank you, I had no idea.

Sunlight into the body?

I remember reading a story years ago where there was another legionaire outbreak in the UK. It took them ages to realize the cause was most likely people filling their windshield wiper reserves with water instead of cleaner. The water sat in the tanks and grew bacteria. The bacteria was then aerosolized every time drivers used their wipers.

I think this was around the 2008 collapse and remember it being strongly implied that people trying to save a buck may have been poisoning their own neighborhoods.

Considering how tight everyone is stretched right now, economically. I would not be surprised by an uptick of watering-down.

Cautiously optimistic about the migration. Reddit had gotten pretty weird.

Yeah, it's wild how much denial we're in about this as a society. Neurological damage was widespread. I personally contracted Covid twice (that I know about) and had noticable difficulty with memory and keeping my train of thought. Something that I never had problems with previously. I think for a lot of people, the difference might not be that noticeable, and therefor is being ignored. I was a hypervigilant stress knot all my life. So now I just have even more anxiety because I can't remember the entire grocery list in my head anymore.

Dude, you were taking a calculated risk before, and the calculations have changed. Good on you for adapting to this very real threat to our collective well-being.

My mom was always on weird diets growing up and never let us have real butter and she never seasoned anything. Now my sister and I, adults, have adopted a French-level respect for butter in all things. I am fat but enjoy my food a lot more now that it tastes of food.

I pushed too quickly on my french press and an eruption of hot coffee water shot up the sleeve of my robe, which trapped it against my arm long enough to burn the skin. I am hoping for no blister, but I have a 4cm red triangle on my forearm now.

Seems like you got the intended consequence. If you want to be honest and your partner can't handle that honesty, maybe it is better to keep looking. I have a very hard time maintaining lies to continue relationships, and as a result I have very few, but incredibly high-quality friends.

Go try. Last time I had to buy a car they wanted 3k over sticker. The market has been a nightmare for years.

Keep it up, you beautiful, strong mfers. Solidarity forever.

The public has a long history of being unable to move the Supreme Court. She just enjoys it more if we all scream and yell while they strip us of our civil rights. This is a Supreme Court Justice telling us to yell all we want, no one is coming to save us.

I realized I was aphantasic just like the woman in the article. I always thought the minds eye was just an expression and I was shocked to find out people can actually SEE stuff if they want. I can draw but it takes a lot of trial and error and I use lots of references.

Since learning about it I have been trying to gain the skill. Attempting to create a cube or circle in my head and such. When I imagine things, it's more like a list of details, not pictures. Sort of jealous of visualization, but I have above average memory due to qualifying everything. We are weird apes.

Damn, the kids ARE alright. That's awesome.

Man, these power grids better hold.

Ooh, yeah it is. Damn, that IS well preserved. Thank you!

Love this bit and will upvote it every time.

It's actually closer to 60.

I also remember the absurdity of that case giving him a sympathetic reputation. Like, even people that hated Clinton saw it was crazy to impeach him over something so... intimate. I am worried that puting so much focus on sexually shaming TFG and ignoring the actual crime commited is gonna work out badly. Dude used campaign contributions to settle a personal matter, but har har mushroom-dick.

Saw it in Lake Placid, New York and it was incredible. Clouds were just wispy and it broke right through. The bands of shadow really confused my eyes but it was so cool. Great picture!

Seconding because the series is fantastic. Haven't read the book either but Jared Harris was captivating in the show.

Omg, Liz Lemon is gorgeous! Such ferocity.

Rrrrrrrobot

Your comment about Deadwood is resonating hard with me. Very well articulated, thank you.

Yessss, I am rewatching it right now and it's been long enough that I can't believe how good it is... again.

I like the way you think.

Cool!

Same, it got me twice.

That's the scene I needed right now. Thank you.

I hated mushrroms my whole childhood. Ate magic mushrooms when I was about 19, and they changed my opinion of mushrroms in general. Like I suddenly appreciated their earthy, woody, umami beauty.

Is there reason to believe this was an intentional explosion, or did the check engine light just get really sick of being ignored?

He says he saw the orca, Starboard, swim by with the shark's liver in its mouth. I am so confused. They really take one organ and jet? They don't eat the rest of the shark? Any whale biologists around?

Yup, they've done studies on this. Having a conversation while driving and having to respond to those two things at once is a strain on yo brain.

I don't know why I hate it so much but any time it comes on the radio I am bothered by hearing it.

I can see that being a core memory. And it would certainly keep me from falling asleep.
