Got locked out of my IG account and the main reason I care about getting it back or disabled is so that my contacts on there don't think I'm an idiot for trying to sell them bitcoin or cheap laptops or whatever. And I feel like an idiot for losing access in general like a sucker.

can you link me a guide to getting started on kombucha?

I guess I should page thru the book on fermentation i bought last year. I'm sure there's a chapter in there about it.

Also, hell yeah OP. 4 years last month over here solidarity

I was looking for McCarthy ITT. I'm going to read Blood Meridian this year after listening to the audiobook years ago. I read The Road around the same time and struggled to get through it because it was so absolutely dreary. I get it obviously I just wanted to say that.

I would recommend also No Country For Old Men as I thought it was all the things McCarthy is amazing at but isn't so violent as the Judge's gang or as consistently hopeless as the world of The Road. It's paced like a thriller while still having an amazing villain. Talking about CM makes me think I should reread these books. I was just out of college when I read/listened to them.

I can see the TV from my station at work and we usually play cartoons and children's shows and stuff. This weekend featured an episode of "What's New Scooby Doo?" (2006) titled "The Fast and The Wormious." I glanced over at the TV during a second of peace to see what looked like a Wacky Racers tribute and saw the captions read something about "El Gusano" and I had a fidel-wut moment.

So I just looked it up, the monster of the week was "Gusano Grande."

I'm really looking forward to getting to DBZ to see the androids again. I remember thinking Android 16 had an interesting character arc but it's been such a long time.

I'm watching Dragon Ball #60 so I've got a long way to go.

book spoileri was even more of a lib when i read the series but i just remember liking the ending of the book and how the galaxy was described to fall into a 2D space because of a little piece of paper that some sniper shot from an unfathomable distance away.

also i thought the Dark Forest hypothesis was an interesting answer to the Fermi paradox.

e: i tried to re-read the series last year and petered out in The Dark Forest.

obviously an-caps are dipshits but how do they not realize that this fact entirely destroys their entire political platform? the government is bad because it gets in the way of corporations! my friend, this government is corporations.

warren buffet also reportedly eats mcdonalds for breakfast. or did. this may have been a brace-cowboy idea but it's like a pro-consumerist perversion. they're doing their part perpetuating the most successful, awful slop we have to offer. buffet in a calculated penny-pinching manner while trump does his thing.
