  • I can’t grow a full beard for shit and am thinking of looking into permanent removal

    My stache though is hilarious, if I grow it out without the beard I instantly look like I’ve aged myself 40 years. Something not helped by the fact that my chosen look is suspenders on a tucked in button down and alternating on khakis vs jeans.

    I look like microbrewery ned flanders.



  • I swear Harris trying to be the hip young meme conscious candidate because she’s only middle aged instead of “was in Methuselah’s graduating class” has already hit the barrier of “so cringe it’s almost gotten funny again.”

    Especially since her social media team seems to actually understand how to be loud about confronting the enemy on the internet and making them look dumb.



  • Living in fear and dying alone, my actual nightmare, and what makes me so merciless in how I view rural conservatives stateside.

    They’ll see this shit and think it’s just desserts. Then they’ll tell their kids about it, and some of those kids are gonna lay awake wondering how they could ever hope to get out of knowing their parents unwittingly believe they should be murdered for existing.

    Gay folks in Gaza were among some of the folks that would routinely go to the desert venue that Hamas attacked on the 7th because the morality police wouldn’t be able to drag them off during performances or for being open at the festivals.

    Only other place they could go to know a taste of that freedom was Turkey.

    Still makes the israeli soldiers shooting at them and bombing them the biggest most proximate threat to their ability to live openly right now.




  • I’d imagine all but the densest motherfuckers on the face of the earth would see that the force standing between them and summary execution at best is calling the retreat and realize the value of being alive somewhere else vs dying on the patch of dirt you happened to feel the most attached to at that moment.

    Actually, I think I got it from food.

    One of the odd symptoms is that it works like reverse COVID, instead of being contagious weeks before you manifest symptoms you remain contagious for weeks after you’ve recovered symptom wise.

    My guess is someone was out of sick days and felt better and passed it on to me when an errant particle of spittle from a sneeze they’d thought they’d covered up gave the little bugger the chance to hop ships.



  • There’s over a million viable alternatives to DNA as carriers of genetic data, so the odds are actually extremely low that something we could classify as saurian in convergent traits

    And that’s before you get into even more exotic theorizes forms of life like gas clouds in the interstellar void that appear to form helical patterns when current runs through them, silicon based life in extremophile environments, and possible micro-time lifeforms that can only exist in the interior of different kinds of neutron stars.

    Also, the lifeform which got the closest to converging on the great ape body plan, which thus far is the most efficient to be observed for complex use of tools, is actually pre-mezozoic, a Permian proto-mammal labelled Suminia, it even had opposable thumbs, although it is theorized to have primarily moved on all fours, so the thumbs were probably for branch clinging instead of hammer swinging.




  • Ok at this point I feel like a significant chunk of these atrocities boil down to abject failure to instill discipline.

    This isn’t how a well trained soldier behaves, this is how some yahoo who got handed a rifle in a catastrophic failure of vetting and pointed at a crowd and told someone bad is in there behaves.

    And I know for a fact that Israel’s military has vetting standards even for conscripts, one of Netenyahu’s cabinet members is noteworthy specifically because he was turned away from military service for being a stark raving mad lunatic who shouldn’t be trusted with a loaded gun.


  • Just beat a case of Mono, the throw up every single day and drop 50 pounds kind, all my most nostalgic memories have become memories of all the nostalgic food experiences I have with my family, mom’s carbonara, going to our favorite local chain restaurant that legit actually made incredible food, dad prying me for long trips by splitting a double McMuffin order with me and getting me OJ and Coffee for himself.

    Basically just imagine a montage of Ego’s flashback in Ratatouille but interspersed through 2 months of delirious sickness and not actually being able to enjoy eating the food first before having the craving flashbacks.
