Yes. I tell anyone I can at work about the public library and how you can use Libby or Hoopla to get free books. Some audio books for those not wanting to read. It is a great asset.

I was going to post Erik, if no one else did. His ads are so good.

You only make this mistake once, hopefully. The first night I moved into my new place, many years ago was a bad night. My stuff didn’t show up yet. It was getting delivered in a few days. I didn’t even take a big dump. It just clogged up. I had to get an emergency plunger and since that move I make sure there is one close by during moves.

I’m not adding anything new, but I wanted to agree with others saying playing in bursts is fine. I would suggest at least 1 hour, if not more. If you don’t have an hour just wait till you do. I played it in burst, but there is so much to read that a shorter amount of time won’t do it justice.

Definitely worth playing. Multiple times too. I played my first go one way and now I’m playing a completely different Tequila Sunrise.

If she retired earlier, then Mitch would have just blocked her replacement. Unless you mean like early early, like Obama’s first term. I don’t really remember hearing calls for her to resign until after Mitch showed his plan as ”the party of no."

They went avant garde silent art style instead of using AI to recreate the likeness of their voice? I would like to see such a future.

You must have figured out the AI legislation then, so what’s the answer?

My own cells? Fuck that noise. If I’m rich I want a steak made from a Keanu Reeves, Idris Elba, Danny Devito, Sharika, or someone that’s not my boring ass.

I see your point. I would be guilty of that mindset that a planet full of life (not necessarily human life) is superior to a dead rock.

“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Heres Tom with the Weather.”

I’ve been into gut health lately and I was thinking what if we are the microorganisms inside a bigger beings gut? This planet is just one part of it and in order for the universe to have a healthy gut we would have to terra form the planets and make healthy worlds. (I don’t think we will actually do that. We are more likely to mine every other planet)

The universe’s gut now looks like the typical American diet gut with ultra processed foods and not enough fiber/fermented foods.

China is a big trade partner with Chile. I would assume Argentina or most South American countries too. Chile has a bunch of shipping ports and China has ships with crap it wants to sell.

Hah. That reminds me of a joke I use to play on my wife back when cars had cd players. After we got in the car, about once a month I would come up with

“Hey can you go and get that CD for the ride?”

“What CD?”

“See Deez Nutz.”

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good?

It’s just the start of bots talking to each other. Pretty soon we will see the start of Cybertron and the bots will take over all.

I like the term “acting your wage.”

Porque no los dos?

Oh. Neat. Like a sort of language interpreter trying to explain an analogy from one language to another? The words might not mean the same when it comes down to the word for word interpretation, but the idea behind them is what matters.

It’s a strange feeling to think you understand what you are reading until you get to the end, but you have given me that feeling. I was like “yeah category that’s a word I know. Let’s math the hell out of some categories.” Then I recognized other words you said, but by the time I was at the end of your post I wasn’t sure if I understood anything.

I don’t mind feeling dumb. Honestly it helps keep my narcissism in check. I like math because I don’t understand all of it even though it should be logical.

We started exporting our obesity. I remember reading about Australia having a growing obesity problem. A lot of the world loves KFC, other fast food, and sugar infused everything. The bucket of chicken is more iconic to see. Especially when they get sold as an “American Meal” combo.

From what I heard after he got out, paraphrasing “Man, no one is talking about that. I swept the hip hop category. Something about ATL.”

I think he mentioned walking too fast for a security guard that didn’t move out of his way and Mike probably checked him. Security guard complains then charges.
