I remember reading an article interviewing a man who lived through the early aughts Argentine Great Depression and he said the best horde of value was cheap diamond rings. You could trade one for a handgun, a couple of bags of groceries, even a motorcycle. He said they were even better than krugerrands. Something about how people trusted someone whose trading a family ring more then some profiteer.
Laurie Anderson Strange Angels I don’t know why but that album hits me so hard. It’s like nothing else I like but I’ve been know to listen to it on loop for hours on end.

“I will not grow a goatee. In the old days they made you look diabolic. Now they just make you look like a disaffected member of Generation X.” - This site is so old Gen X were still surly youths when it was written.

Honestly? My real conspiracy theory is that the the fappening wasn’t an Apple iCloud leak, it was a NSA leak.
In 2014 a whole bunch of celebrities nude photos got put up anonymously on 4chn and reddit. The FBI ended up blaming a guy from Cleveland. But during the same time the NSA was operating under a 6 hop rule for sweeping cell phones and operators at Langley were notorious for copying off photos from random cellphones that they could access too.
The 6 hops rule let the NSA guys get a secret warrant to remotely search a phone if someone is a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact who’s a suspected terrorist. That is a hell of a lot of people and I’m sure a lot of celebrities.
So I’m sure the guys at the NSA were collecting and then trading various celebrities nude photos, and one of them was stupid enough to start posting them for clout on 4chn. I believe that they were disciplined and that put a stop to it but they had to find someone to take the heat and they got Apple to do that.
Fuck yeah, just give the ancient Greeks hindu-arabic numerals and watch them lose their minds. Teach Zeno calculus and watch him try to prove it wrong.
If you’re looking for the biggest change in our timeline for the littlest work I’d give a hindu-arabic numerals to early Greek mathematicians. Watching those guys try to wrap their heads around zero, that would fuck Pythagoras.
I’ve been carving flutes for the last six weeks.
Well you see the Reasonablists book the park for today because the Ice Cream social was yesterday. So Zorp the Surveyor will come at dawn to eat our faces.
All Hail Zorp!
Yeah, this only leads to troubles.
Yeah plex was awesome when it was just a fork of XBMC but it’s just another story of someone taking an open source project and privatising it to enshitify it.
I think the first step is to get a good spotter and then exhale on the pull.
I think we had up to do up to 12 times tables by 3rd or 4th grade. I remember starting in 1st at school but really I learned them from Schoolhouse Rock. In the states Schoolhouse Rock was on Saturday Mornings between regular cartoons and they had such great songs.
My dream IP? Something based on Brubaker and Rucka’s Gotham Central. A gritty police thriller set on the streets of Batman’s home town. No super powers no special gadgets just ordinary cops dealing with the crazies. It was an amazing comic book series and I’d love to see it as a TV production. Live action or animated.
Not all women are in to a guy just because he can turn in an invisible tiger.
I love this. There is literally nothing in the world better than listening to someone talk about something they are passionate about. You are an awesome person on the lemmings and hope you don’t mind that I’ve tagged you as “Fucking loves Clowns is a good way”. And honestly it’s never too late to chase you passion. You should look around for some clowning classes near you.
