Seriously. I’m in my 40s and this is the first time I’ve ever had any sense of scale for red blood cells. Very cool!

I have a podcast that I create with a couple of friends. We take an ordinary object—such as a ceiling fan, or a paper clip, or a toilet brush—and we create a movie plot based on that object. The show is called Almost Plausible, and can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.

If so, it’s propagating. I live in the NW USA and have been noticing it for years.

It drives me nuts that people frequently leave out the words “to be” when talking. For example, they will say something like, “the car needs washed.” No, either the car needs to be washed, or it needs washing.

“Because we can.”

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen it, but IIRC, the film isn’t saying the Christian Jesus we all know about is immortal, but that this character in the film who is immortal (and a white dude, BTW) was assumed to be the son of God because people 2,000 years ago found out he was immortal and had no other explanation.

ETA: Looks like I remembered reasonably well. Here’s the scene in question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bXtdr5BI74

I’m glad to see someone linked to this video. No one ever believes me when I tell them this is the way.

Holy shit, I remember this! I loved this growing up.

It does, more or less. In true NileBlue fashion, things don’t go quite as initially planned.

I assume you mean the new one?

The $3,000 is a protection plan, kind of like insurance. So if you use that lock and your bike is stolen, they’ll give you up to $3,000 to replace it. I don’t see a price listed for the lock itself.

It’s not like those Tax Dollars came from the Working Class in the first place!

This is my favorite part of the book. I love how he’s all just, “Italy is winning the war.”

Spot Shot can work wonders, but definitely read the instructions. It’s been awhile since I’ve had to use it, but I recall thinking its use is not intuitive (not complicated, just not what I would have assumed).

I also have a Little Green Machine from Bissell, which has been so fucking useful. I generally use that instead of Spot Shot, and on rare occasions, the two in tandem. Again, be sure to read the instructions and clean the machine out properly after every use so it doesn’t get gross.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!

I’m curious to know why, can you explain or point to an article?

Oh look, here’s a guy who lives his whole life as Peter Pan and has a website about it

Holy shit, I haven’t thought about that guy in something like 20 years! I wonder what he’s up to these days. I like to imagine he and the berries and cream guy are pals.

Please don’t be Spokane, please don’t be Spokane…

PHEW!

To be fair, it’s only Day 1 for the Switch. I’ve been playing on PC for quite awhile.

The game is fantastic! I have about 200 hours into it already.
