I think people forget that nobody is racing you. If someone merges into traffic in front of you, theyre not winning and youre not losing. It’s all OK. You dont have to be upset.

For me, it depends on the spice level. The more adventurous i am at the dinner table the worse off I am in the bathroom the next day. Worth it tho.

Dude… Have you tried papusas yet? Not Mexican but, ya know, south of the USA. They’re so friggin good.

Mexican food and tacos are just scratching the surface of Latin American food. It’s all so good and so different.

Ya know what’s fun, is I’m just not sure I care if it’s wasabi or horseradish. The green shit that i dab on my sushi rolls tastes great and unique, and the burn hits me right between the eyes. Give me the non-descript green shit, please.

“Venomous Lumpsucker” by Ned Beauman was good. The writing style reminded me of Weir a bit.

“The Reformatory” by Tananarive Due was also pretty good.

Very different books from each other. Neither are completely without flaw, but both books were a solid B+.

Ive never read a bad Agatha Christie book.

My favorite book is “A Confederacy of Dunces” by John Kennedy Toole, and his novella “Neon Bible” was also very good.

“The Dog Stars” by Peter Heller was good.

“Godshot” by Chelsea Bieker was very good.

Ditto. And the worst jobs ive ever had are the jobs where I was bored. To quote Method Man: I do my best work stressed out and under pressure.

I dont use super secret messaging apps. I also dont fuck with peer to peer anything. I was broadly speaking about why anonymity on the internet is important to me.

Roku solved my wifi/buffering issue way back in 2015 or so, when i was using a Sony bluray player that had built in streaming capability. I became a devout user after that.

Also the UI isnt clunky, laggy like so many cheap TVs and such (except the Youtube App is fucking laggy trash).

Is the recommended ONN streamer (see above) as good as the Roku at all the same shit?

I would love to ditch the rokus for all the same shit.

I would assume if an entity had my phone number they could easily connect it to me, like by spoofing it and calling themselves and getting the name off caller id or some shit, or even just subpoenaing the phone carrier for the id of the phone number. Why they would want to do that for little old fudgy mctubbs is beyond me.

I’ll say it: I dont want anybody to know what I jack off to. It’s all legal stuff, but im too prudish to have that be public.

Anonymity is impossible, but we can still attempt it.

Hey guys… Wasnt this a Kanye meme first… Like back in 2011… Or am I having a stroke?

Edit: found it. Not a Meme meme, not in 2011, but still

You know that some weirdo would say the opposite if it was positive comments first. It’s a lose-lose situation for the writer.

I was filling up my gas tank the other day and I just stopped because I decided that that was enough money spent on gasoline for the day. The tank wasnt full. I wasnt out of money. I understand that it means i will have to find a gas pump sooner eventually. But, man, it made sense in the moment.

Mindfulness meditation probably saved my life (crippling panic attacks and GAD). After 15 years of practicing it on and off, im now reading up on buddhism and attending a weekly sangha.

Ah yes. Kids clothes add a lot of time.

Here’s the thing about folding clothes, Professor: it’s a 2-minute task if you fold the clothes right after they come out of the dryer. It’s when you let laundry pile up that it becomes a marathon.

I know this, but I still occasionally let mine build up, and i regret it every time.

My favorite movie (The Big Lebowski) has already been mentioned so here are some movies ive really enjoyed:

There Will Be Blood

Project Hail Mary

Love and Monsters

Downsizing (Matt Damon)

O Brother Where Art Thou

Three Amigos

The Orphanage (Del Toro)

Rosemary’s Baby (disclaimer: This is a Roman Polanski film, and if you’re unwilling to separate art from the artist, feel free to skip it and more power to you)

Shaun of the Dead

Dr Strangelove

North by Northwest

This one is probably intended to secure the ballroom/bunker funding that is stalled in Congress.

Yeah, but it’s only about 12tb after you format it. Probably.

Msdos on my family’s Commodore taught me my foundation of computer literacy. Then Q-Crack and editing the Duke Nukem 3D config file and sharing it with a friend so we could play over the modem together expanded my understanding and confidence. Linux paired with google searches/forums just seemed like a natural progression to me.

Listen, pal, your beef shouldn’t be with folks like me questioning if your “rave review” stippled with flowery adverbs is an ad. If you’re just some dude writing, then you’re just some dude writing.

Your beef should be with marketers and advertisers who for the past decade+ have dishonestly inserted their scumbag bullshit ads into social media threads pretending to be just another excited commenter/content contributor leaving rave reviews with flowery adverbs. Go be pissed at them.

Glad you like your Anbernic. I have an RG556 and two other lesser Anbernic devices. The lesser ones both stopped turning on after about a year – for no good reason. The RG556 still works 16 months after I got it. It’s fine at what it’s intended to do, but sucks as a Steam Link device.
