Most of life can apparently be explained by whether or not your parents were monsters. All of the terrible people ruining the US today are case studies for this hypothesis. If only their daddies had loved them more, the rest of the world could be spared their lifelong attempts at compensation.
One thing about capitalism, it can be relied upon to churn out corporations who desperately ignore and try to hide the fact that their products are death traps. You have to admire the consistency.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. I don’t even know if leaving or entering the country is super safe for anyone anymore, but certainly the people who are most at risk for having their humanity violated are those who are not white and not US citizens.
Somehow apocalyptic renderings always seem less apocalyptic than you know they would be. If the worst I wind up in the end days is hiding out in a weird shack like one of these, I’m probably ok with it.
It’s easy to hate this place (earth) in recent times, but take a look around it a little more. Maybe you’ll feel a tiny bit better about the planet we’re burning. I particularly love Lake Hillier and The Giant’s Causeway. The latter looks like the cover of Houses of the Holy.
I’ve read quite a few things recently that make me slightly pessimistic about the future of Japan, but this isn’t one of them. MATCHA CREPES! Even better, the shop that makes them, Mikuriya, is stuffed at the bottom of a staircase in Higashimuki Shopping Street that appears to be completely inaccessible. It’s very Japanese.
Stopping sniffing those matcha crepes and get a whiff of these! I’m a little undecided as to whether mummies really smell as good as advertised or researchers just spend too much time in ancient university buildings. Either way, I think we’ve finally discovered something that has never been dusted with matcha powder.
I didn’t even know this was possible, but my daughter tipped me off to it because they deal with people trying to pay with stolen card wallets where she works.
The right’s Red Pill obsession is not only idiotic, it’s also a freaking lie. Their red pill is blue, and they’re super happy to be in the Matrix of their own creation.
This was a Sony idea and I’d never heard of it. If it was created in 1976, they must have been known and talked about while I was still there. I LIKE IT!
Giant vehicles aren’t safe for the people outside them, but they’re also not safe for the people in them either, it turns out. But that’s not why people buy them anyway, they buy them to compensate for their tiny genitals.
I don’t use Google, but if all tech starts behaving differently to people who swear, I’m in luck because most of my conversations with Siri are just a torrent of expletives.
Back when fighting Nazis as opposed to being Nazis was cool, the one-time pad provided security against the enemy. Now, a digital version – the Pad-O-Matic!
