The point was to not worship these people. The point was driven better in the book, the movie was more anti-capitalist than the book.

Well, shit. Time for me to book a trip to Vegas.

If you think what you have to throw out as the consumer is wasteful, take a look in the kitchens of these places and tell me that it's any better. Most foods that have to be prepped in advance must be separated by single-use parchment/wax paper, then wrapped in plastic. When ready to use, use a glove for a few uses to take the prepped food out of the wrap, remove the paper separating it all, and chuck it out. It could have been prepped a week ago, or only two hours ago for fresh use, you still throw out all this paper and plastic wrapping. And then the cleaning, there is an inexcusable amount of paper towel used for various purposes, from drying your hands to wiping a counter/table, etc. And it's all thrown out. Some restaurants will use towels and kitchen rags, but then you have so many to wash and clean, it's usually done by a third-party service that has to drive to pick it all up, drive to a central laundry stop, do the laundry, and then drive it all back to get done again. And if you are in a place that has a washing machine in-house, it's a drop in the bucket in solving real waste issues.

Isn't that what SheRa used? Magic was an energy to be harnessed by the technology.

Word replacement is fine and dandy, just don't have a physical reaction to moist. I have seen people like that and made me lose respect for them.

  • I haven't been to Taco Bell in a minute.
  • My wife and I stay at Street Rd.

The second one I get the closer I am to inner city areas. The first I have been hearing more in suburban areas and outside of the inner city regions that it originated.

There are certain things people say that should be banned:

  • When saying that you haven't done or seen something in a while, don't say "a minute" instead. I will ask what happened sixty seconds ago and make you a fool.
  • When talking about where you live, you don't "stay at", you live at a place.
  • And being afraid of the word "moist" makes you sound like a toddler who doesn't want a bath.
  • One more, "amaze-balls" and "automagic" are not words and make you sound like a toddler who doesn't want a bath.

Pinterest. My boards are full of diy project ideas and recipes that I will never look at again, but I keep clicking and saving.

I want disclosure. I want a tag or watermark to let people know that AI was used. I want to see these companies pay dues for the content used in the similar vein that we have to pay for higher learning. And we need to stop calling it AI as well.

 

I was watching Knock Knock Knowing on Hootys Door and noticed the collector in Eda's dream and the scroll with the curse. Made me wonder, where did Lilith find the curse?

The more we get, the better it becomes. Trying to just change the whole system at once is just an excuse for not making the small changes that move the needle.

 

I had the thought that the only way to really fight against large corporations and billionaires is to compete against them. Start your own business. Amazon relies on third-party sellers more than anything in their business. So start a business and sell your items there. Don't have anything to sell? People are a creative bunch, make something. Find a local producer of something and make a partnership to sell on an independent web site.

 

I want to start a stream with some of my friends and other players trying to play these games. So I wanted to get a list of them before starting the stream. And they don’t even have to be good.

Apologies for the FB post, but that's where I'm finding it.

 

I haven't played since before Wizards started pushing Commander, at that time called EDH. I felt the Standard Format was a perfect setup to keep the game fresh and innovative while still making money, and the Legacy Format was perfect for the people who had cards that are no longer in Standard. I think the Commander Format killed a perfect system, and Wizards/Hasbro are just trying everything to make money and keep the game mostly unplayable with the licensed tie-ins.

 
 

First time making a pot roast, even after the cat knocked over and shattered the wine bottle overnight. Wife reminded me that we had a bottle in the pantry.

 

I have five.

 
 

Mine is that the Disney+ shows should not have any impact on the movies, that they should just be on their own.
