Genital mutilation is a caveman practice…

Like kraft cheese… disgusting but still edible.

“Looking for a wifi” was mine college.

The Institute hard at work…

Asimov not azimov…wtf.

Exactly… adapted for a wider audience.

Dad kept the scifi magazines with Azimovs original short stories. Azimov was a very prolific writer. Dad also had many Tales from Gore. The book shelves literally slumped from the weight. I didn’t fully appreciate the monumental amount of concentrated history I was engulfed in…in my own house. An entire wall of books, magazines, journals(medical, philosophical, anthropological, linguistic, almanacs, etc etc.)

Grew up… realized some of the things I missed out on. Didn’t sleep on The Well World Series by Chalker though…lol

Dune was my go to scifi…now it’s popular and I feel like a hipster.

My dad got me into hard scifi, d&d, Tolkien…if I feel like a hipster, can’t imagine what he feels like.

I think everyone should collectively decide to hold Halloween 2 days after Halloween so everyone can get in on that reduced price candy.

Takes the sting out of inflation a little bit and everyone still gets their good time in.

I hate that I agree with this.

Humans can be so much more than violent cavemen, but we aren’t there quite yet.

Dumbfuckery at its finest…

Had this conversation with my brother the other day…I’m all for Linux gaming and he is staying with windows because learning something new is antithesis to his having fun. I totally get it.

Chapel was about a third full. 10 pews on each side, with a maximum of 15 butts per pew…

20x15-66%=

100ish in attendance…

didn’t take a census, so I’m relying on a 17 year old memory.

Edit: bad math

It’s just an acknowledgement that I’m not the only being in the universe who has feelings and thoughts.

Used to live across the street from a Freewill Baptist Church.

Always curious about other beings mindsets, went and attended a service.

Walked through the main door and felt the trope of crickets chirping. No one greeted me, said hello, welcome, nothing. I was stared at but never acknowledged.

The service was strictly talking. No hyms or singing.

The sermon told me they are creationists that believe “Singing and dancing lead to temptation”.

Point is their “educational materials” were horrifying. Mostly just fear mongering and advising self segregation from reality.

One of my buddies was recently complaining about “free speech” on Reddit.

Told him it’s a company and not the government, so free speech doesn’t count there. He hated that.

Told him if he didn’t like it to use Bluesky…he’s a staunch conservative…lol

Stop reading my mind!

“I suddenly feel very sick.”

The pizza inexplicably gets tossed in the garbage and he’s homeward bound…

Carrots improve eyesight…nah, just military misinformation that is now a staple for parents to get their kids to eat their carrots

The ocean is beyond beautiful. Spent some time on the shores of NC and VA…

Started studying marine biology due to the oceans vast amount of mystery…Now it’s “The ocean is beyond beautiful and just as deadly.”
