Human memories are merely data to the virus and so it is unaffected by them, but experiencing Carol’s rage firsthand is a whole other thing and possibly weakens their hold on their hosts?

I think it’s not so much about suppressing emotions so much as it is the virus having control and having access to all the memories. Like how an AI has access to the whole internet, but can’t tell you its favourite colour.

This tracks with the convo Carol had about her novels. No real opinions.

I don’t believe so. They explicitly said they would allow one of the other people to kill an animal and they would prepare it. They also told Carol that they cannot protect her from the other individuals. Death is permitted, but they cannot intentionally cause it.

We’re barrelling towards Idiocracy IRL at record speeds.

The other day I saw a bottle of “Gatorade Water” and only thought “It’s got what plants crave.”

My plan is to go to Australia to show my kid the Bluey locations in real life.

(I’ve also just wanted to go to Australia since I was a little kid.)

Gotta love “Dems paint Hegseth as war criminal.” Yeah, because he’s a fucking war criminal!

Truly, a fate worse than death.

Thank goodness it has a coat bath. I’m always frustrated with having no place to bathe my coats.

Man, that’s depressing. I wish there was an easy way to instill a passion for learning and thinking in people.

I have a kid in kindergarten, so I’ve just accepted I’m going to be sick a lot this school year. I came down with something last week and have been staying home, but if I need to go out, I’ll wear a mask. Like, I have a bunch, so I might as well.

I can’t eat raw cherries or apple, so I bake them into an apple cherry crisp! Always served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Perhaps the conceit of the show is that Charlie Brown is missing and no one’s noticed for 3 years. Where is Charles Brown? Dead? Homeless? Living like a king in the Canary Islands with Snoopy the 3rd?

In Peanuts, Lucy would be the therapist, maybe with a Frasier-like radio show. Peppermint Patty runs a lesbian bar with Marcy, and Linus works at a Bed Bath and Beyond.

It’s not just Seinfeld. It’s Seinfeld with depression.

Arson carried out due to the disagreement about the correct portrayal of Winnie the Pooh.

Yeah, can the writers jump into the world of their stories the way painters can jump into their paintings? I wanna know more! Like, is this war just a result of artistic discrepancies in the creation of an illustrated children’s book? Cause I could imagine that starting a war.

Little known fact, but Off was his middle name. Bojack Off Horseman. In honour of his uncle Jerk.

(I kid, I kid… I don’t know if he had an uncle Jerk.)

Peanuts needs a Riverdale style show, except instead of hot young people, they’re miserable 40 year olds.
November 27, 2025 at 10:01 PM
Same, but I’m also here for the cute posters of kittens.

Sleep deprivation was also a common tactic because at the time, it wasn’t considered torture. It’s not as “fun” in a BDSM way though.

I did a lot of my own research into the history of witches in fiction for the only YouTube video I ever made. (Too much work; never again.)

Us Canadians with our “New York Fries” and “Boston Pizza’s” just to bamboozle the Americans.
November 26, 2025 at 4:17 PM
I wanna call things like this “inevitable incompetence” The idea that the “smarter” things get, the dumber they become. Like, “let’s make this process worse in every way because profit.” We’re heading towards Idiocracy IRL.

That kid’s mind is gonna be blown as soon as he learns to read.
