Don't know who needs to hear this, but fast zombies aren't zombies!Find something else to call them. They inspire a completely different type of fear. Fast zombies are about the adrenaline, the jump scare, the chase, and sudden end. Zombies are slow. Slow but innumerable. You CAN run. You CAN try to hide. But...See More »
Anyone remember...Hotornot.com? Or am I just getting old? 😅 Apparently can't put partial links to even dead sites in the title.
Fearing the end of the world?Supposedly, the earliest prediction of the end of the world we have evidence for came from the Assyrians, a powerful Mesopotamian culture that lasted for roughly two thousand years. A tablet was found dating back to sometime between 2800 and 2500...See More »
That moment when you think you haven't been here all that long and then...You see an old friend show up at the top so you check the profile to see if they've actually come back and their newest post is more than 3 years old. 👨🧔👴
Nothing tells me advertisers are out of touch like them asking what I think of their ads...Or am I alone in that I feel ads are inherently degrading to an experience? Are there actually people out there that want to see ads targeted to them? People that are not themselves marketers or executives?
This is not financial advice, and I am not a financial advisor.Now let me suggest what you should do with your finances in an advisorial capacity. 😏
It is not in the long term interest of politicians to solve problemsGetting an unfixed problem fixed is always going to be more important to voters than having credit for an already fixed problem. This is how you get politicians fighting for the same issues for decades but only making token gains at resolution....See More »
Everyone's a criticSometimes it feels like people can't just enjoy things anymore. They get so focused on all of the little flaws and put so much energy into tearing things down there is no attention left for appreciation.
Do you believe in determinism? Or do you believe some things live outside the realm of cause and effect?I imagine most folks have never really thought about it. If you have, what are your thoughts? Which way do you lean?
Some of these posts are too much like the others...I know the admins said that by the data they see most of these new users are separate individuals, and honestly I do not care too much if they are or not. But so many of them commit the same grammar and spelling mistakes and have very similar posting...See More »
Frozen pipesMerry Christmas to me. My gift? The well froze up last night. I've had this house for 9 years and never had the well freeze up before. Fortunately, an extension cord and a blow dryer seems to have done the trick. Growing up back in Ohio we'd have...See More »
You ever get caught up in watching those YouTube videos where people from one country try foods from another?I mean uh, me neither. 😎
It seems to never fail...In manga and anime, whenever the protagonist ends up choosing a person to date from a field of multiple candidates, it's almost never my to pick. I'm starting to wonder if maybe it is me who has weird taste... 😅
We seem to have an antisemite problem here.And I'm not talking about criticisms of Israel. Straight up white supremacist and conspiracy BS going on.
Found Megamind is back on Netflix Always amazes me that between it and Despicable Me, Despicable Me was more successful. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad movie, but Megamind was so much better in my opinion. This scene alone still just gets me: (Actual clip from movie, so you...See More »
Gas Prices...https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/bp-smashes-forecasts-with-82-billion-profit-2022-11-01/ This time last year oil was at $89 it did spike in spring after the war started to $116 in May. That's not quite double. That is not even up 50%. Oil is...See More »
Guess Halloween was another covid casualty around hereThree houses with porchlights on. All three said they don't do Halloween. It feels like watching a community on its death bed.
Vampire in the Garden is actually really goodIt's a 5 episode anime on Netflix, but it will get you in the feels.
Just a finished a fairly sizeable novel series...Robin Hobb's Elderling series, sixteen novels. It's sad to reach the end after so much time in it. I think the series has my favorite rendition of dragons to date. The magic was also interesting to me. Definitely something I'd recommend to Fantasy...See More »
Sometimes I wonder if the quickest way to turn the MAGA hats against Trump is if Biden were to pardon him.Seems they would cut off their own noses to spite their face if it meant owning the libs.
How often do you know you should not really look at a post but give in to curiosity and do it anyways?
Not wild about hurricane Ian continuing to build strengthI'm not ready for days or weeks without power. I hope things hold out.
What are your conflicting desires?Like, you want to eat healthy but also, you know those hamburgers and ice cream look really good...
Are you for or against ranked choice voting? Why?I am for it. It ultimately presents the least objectionable candidate. I think it would really temper the extremes and possibly even break down limited party systems to free up more electoral choices.
