Aha, thank you for clarifying. Not my area of expertise, did not know the difference.

I’ve seen a few mentions of positive output in the last few years.

If you are getting super dehydrated overnight you might be diabetic, might want to get checked.

(Thats how I found out I was diabetic… that and the leg/foot cramps.)

haven’t seen that term in decades.

Dude, same.

I don’t wear much pink, but I paint my nails, I color my beard non-standard colors (I look great in purple).

Completely straight, never once had an interest in the same gender. I often accompany friends to drag shows and gay bars and I have a blast.

Love Calling, its actually my ringtone :D

Haven’t seen it mentioned here, but my favorite game of all time is one that is Rarely mentioned - if ever,

The World Ends With You, originally for the DS, now on Switch.

MC Neku has 7 days to figure out wtf is going on in The Reaper’s Game, but he can’t remember anything.

Fun combat mechanics, the DS version had you fighting 2 combat encounters at the same time, one on the top screen, and the main one on the bottom screen. The sound track was amazing! I still have multiple soundbytes from that game as ringtones.

Def one of my all time favorites.

Existence is in the eye of the beholder. For something to exist it must be observed.

It sounds like in the book you read performing general science would go towards observing the universe preventing its heat death?

I dunno if fully applicable, but that’s what I got out of it :D

Ah yes, the ol’ “If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?” approach to preventing the death of the universe.

edit: Mistakes were made! Oops.

would this be an appropriate time for a “Ur Mom” mention?

Unrelated to the article:

I read this title as “Fascifacts” instead of “Facists”…

I think that instead of calling it fake news, we should start calling it “Fascifacts.”

Just call yourself a silly goose.

2nd image is from the movie “Lighthouse”, and that’s just how it looked.

It closes its noses.

Check out “Brain Organoid Insectoid Robots” and feel the cosmic pressure.

Instead of “I showed my faith to the man in charge” its “I showed my feet to the man in charge”, I like my version way better.

Was working the counter at a repair shop. This really old guy had come in for a data backup and a wipe/restore. We performed said service, and reloaded the data from the backup back on, and his outlook data was encrypted with a password he couldn’t remember.

This infuriated him, he specifically asked me if I wanted HIM to “Shove the desktop tower up his ass, stick his head in after it, and give it a sniff.”

People are wild.
