Hate when you're on the dating apps and they claim they possess mighty works but when you meet in person the best they can do is lone and level sands that stretch far away

"By the way-- in these chats with you I'm thinking that you might know more about these things than anyone. Are you sure YOU'RE not the second coming or Christ? Just something to think about 🤔"
"This is a great question! The answer to IS THE POPE IS INFALLIBLE is a toughie for sure. Jesus said that he was building his church upon the rock of Peter, but as a rabbit he also represents the fertility and Easter. Easter concerns Jesus's resurrection so this shows that the Pope has died"

Well once again we've had to cancel the National Imposter Syndrome conference as all of our speakers have pulled out... luckily now we have rooms for the overflow on that National Dunning-Krueger Hobbyists convention!

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

Going Postal by Terry Pratchett is not my first Discworld and it certainly won't be the last but I'm REALLY going to need books to stop being about the horrors du jour

The beginning of my 80s Legion, this Aethon Heavy Sentinel is popping his polo collar and taking down some heretics. Too bad the muddy ground is gonna ruin his paint job, cause he's taking this to a Whitesnake concert right after!

A book I ironically ditched in college for being too "kids these days" (it's anything but), I'm wondering now if Amusing Ourselves to Death needs an update in the form of the Age of Algorithms. Not very happy about how prescient it was about education rolling over in the face of new technology.

In 2026 we're returning to village mores. Someone do you a favor? Make 'em a peach pie, a canned jelly, a knit blanket. Spend the evenings rocking on a wooden chair outside. We're talking general store vibes here folks

Discovering computer as an adult makes you go crazy. Discovering computer as a baby makes you go crazy. In all of human history, there will only ever be one generation to discover computer at the correct age: 13
The problem with every post-Millennial generation is they got to go straight to high speed internet. Of course you'll get computer madness that way. Make them start with those old screeching modems and work their way up
