I have no hole into which you can pigeon me. I'm unique. Just like everyone else.

I'm equal parts seven, seventeen, and seventy, and have been since elementary school. I've got the open ended curiosity of a seven year old, the suicidal bravery of a seventeen year old, and the wisdom of an old man.

I am equal parts George Orwell, Kurt Vonnegut, Hunter Thompson, and Charles Bukowski.

    Thank you.

    I love Mastodon, I love the Linux community. It's so nice to ask questions and get real answers from people who actually know what they're talking about.

    Thanks all!

    It feels pretty firm through the packaging. It says, "I am great for baking and pan frying."

    Funny. Just yesterday I was pondering the eternal question--which Discworld character best represents me? I decided, despite coming from the middle class, it's probably William deWorde.

    I'm pretty irrelevant, too. :)

    Hitting was bigger, but notice nobody has their head down up against the wall or in the corner. They protected themselves rather than trusting the refs to do so.

    In Estonia, you can still get an old fashioned Motorola stick phone without a camera or GPS. They remember the Soviets over there.

    I think the trend away from carrying a tracking device will only fade after we've deposed and imprisoned trump, eliminated the republican party, and put all the MAGA assholes in prison or a grave. Millions of them.

    I certainly hope the trend of making it harder for the authorities to know everything about you continues.

    I'm a huge fan of King's early stuff and had read the 800p "The Stand" half a dozen times before the 1200p version was released. I didn't notice anything in the long form that added to the story. I say his editors were right to cut it the first time.

    This is an unpopular opinion, but I really think you can skip 400 pages without losing anything.

    As far as pandemic themed books, "The Stand" by Stephen King wears the crown.

    "The Andromeda Strain" by Michael Crichton isn't bad, either.
