Sent my husband out for beer and he came back with this.

She’s so stunning. I wonder what it’s like to live with such striking features and the ability to make muted tan look great.

The greatest hits from the NFT/metaverse era, just in a slightly different key. “Oh, you think my test case for NFTs is useless? Well, why don’t YOU come up with something?”

This was visit two out of the four that it eventually took to find somewhere staffed with a human being.

I walked into a tax preparer’s office and found it completely deserted with the lights off. Door unlocked. Deserted. No notion of when or if someone was coming back. It’s a never-ending adventure!

Do the hours on the building say this place is open? Sure does! Is it? Nope! Is it gone for good or just closed for lunch? Who’s to say?

That’s my job, currently. Not my whole job, but I did recently search for every single citation on a paper that had more than 100 refs. All legit, though I think the AI slop will be slow to come to our niche.

Even milk doesn't age this badly, this quickly.

The dialogue in the early seasons was so good, even in the extra scenes that aren't in the book. What the hell happened.

So the one I received that reads "It's me, Rizz Master Michael Hobbes" is DEFINITELY fake, then? Good to know.

Her first mistake was not titling the video "Vic Is Right About Everything And I Am Very Attracted to Them", and I'm sure she will rectify that shortly.

Whoever astroturfed the "Phantom Menace was good, actually" movement has clearly moved on to a different challenge here.

Plants of the Gods. An ethnobotanist talks about psychoactive plants, their ritual uses, and possible modern applications. Niche and sometimes dry, but a nice antidote to bros talking about microdosing. Sometimes has interviews now.
