If I could live in no country I’d be so happy. But the only place to do that is a desert in Africa and my natural habitat is temperate forests.

So I guess Canada.

Unless you’re mediocre at it and have adhd and then it’s just easier to always tell the truth so you don’t have to forget about something.

I used to believe that people, given the right information, would make a smart decision, and that humanity will eventually get things right.

Now I know we won’t and this has doomed millions of species including our own, and if we’re lucky in a million years we’ll be an oily radioactive smear in the fossil record and nothing of value will be lost.

Yeah, I can’t even enjoy The X Files anymore after learning about this. The evil conspiracy is real but it has nothing to do with aliens

He was an amateur radio operator who picked up some encrypted signals from a nearby air force base.

He died in a mental hospital, estranged from his family and suffering from paranoid delusions.

Got it. No therapist it is.

Does getting health care mean leaving your basement?

If someone callled me an ambulance I’d fight them because I don’t have ambulance money.

If the AI could help me decipher what the emoji mean that would be legit helpful

Even when he’s a lizard bartender on The Orville

I saw “What Dreams May Come” in high school and wept the entire way from the theater to the car.

Even met some friends on the way and had to explain I was crying because it was so beautiful.

Yeah.

Plus my racist neighbors with their chemlawn are pissed

I let milkweed take over my front planting bed and I’m ecstatic

I bent over the sink to clean the drain and threw my back out three hours before I had to leave on a business trip.

Had to cancel the entire thing and spend the next day on my back.

The WFH gave it away. I have a similar setup and it makes me look real professional even if I’m naked from the waist down.

That ring light is going to make your cat look amazing on Zoom
