So you all cook the bacon correctly over there? God bless.

10,700 hostages were taken.

It may be a perfect movie. Robin Wright’s acting is a little rigid but otherwise it’s a very straightforward sci-fi noir.

Blade Runner 2049

I’ve read this joke 100 times. Is this something Bibi said?

That works a couple times, but then the side seams of the zipper part will start to tear.

Nearly every sentence of this is wrong. Suffering is a part of life, but that doesn’t mean it’s the only part, and it doesn’t mean the “logical” solution is to die. Get real.

Is there a sharpener you recommend? Drill Doctor?

I’ve had the basic one (not the slim - parts of the band on the slim are bare elastic and it’s not comfortable) for years and I love it. I’m a side sleeper and I don’t have much trouble with the mask getting pushed off, but I do dream about getting the pro version.

Do you mean that people have had more difficulty keeping track of time and timelines since the pandemic? I’ve certainly had lots of conversations where someone said, “That was 2 years ago already? What is time anymore?” They’re not talking about getting older, but that the pandemic created this blank space where we didn’t have our usual traditions or seasonal events. If there isn’t a term for this specific phenomenon, we could make one. Pandemic time elasticity?

Why were people smashing windows? Is it dangerous to be on a train that’s derailed?

I had pretty much stopped using my switch before I got the deck. There just weren’t enough compatible games to keep me interested. I ordered a deck impulsively and, like people often say, I fell in love with video games again. In absolute numbers it’s a big investment, but I’ve gotten like 3000 hours out of it so far. I love being able to wake it up, play 20 minutes of a AAA game, then suspend the game and come back later.

One of my faves. I’ve never understood why people say it’s impossible to adapt.

Take as long as you feel like, and try not to focus on “getting through” the book. On my first read, I was lucky enough to feel like I couldn’t put it down. I tried a second time years later and didn’t get very far, I think because I was focused on finishing it.

How exactly do you use these together?

Is this the same as “Class Action Park”?

I’m glad you’re safe.

That about sums it up.

To each his own, but the Branch Ergonomic is the most uncomfortable chair I’ve ever sat in. It’s almost entirely plastic and the lumbar support isn’t rigid enough to provide any support. The worst part is they have a 30 DAY return policy. By the time I had used the chair long enough to make an assessment, I was stuck with it.
