My hands feel like they’re being crushed by boulders, and face feels like needle face x1000 in the cold. The peak of summer may be miserable but I can still function without extreme pain. And before anybody mentions better gloves or a face covering, it doesn’t help. I’ve tried every magical glove in existence. And heated ones make me sweat after 5-10 minutes and I’m arguably in a worse position, same with full face coverings. FUCK WINTER.

“even fucking Mexico”…

The voice of God thing is real at least. It shoots sound waves like a laser so that one person is targeted directly while nobody else can hear it. Though, last I knew, the tech is relatively the size of a cell phone and would be a bit conspicuous. It also needs line of sight, so if you could aim it remotely and put it in the rafters of like a museum or other place with high ceilings, it would work, but it’d be rather case sensitive.

If someone suggests something I’ve already heard of, it’s unlikely I’ll even bother checking it out. But if Ive never heard of it, I’ll do at least a cursory search on what it’s about, what it’s like.

Like, oh really? Another person suggests breaking bad? Wowww it must be so good! No. I saw the first two episodes and moved on years before you trying to get me to push through it. But if I’ve never heard of it, I’ll listen to their pitch and maybe I’ll check it out, maybe I won’t. But at my age I know what I like, and don’t.

My buddy is a big cinephile and loves every movie it seems. I don’t trust his suggestions at all anymore. He also pushes every new anime in existence, despite know I absolutely despise anime of all sorts. It’s all the same. Substitute aliens or super powered fighters for demons, it doesn’t matter. It’s exactly the same. It’s all formulaic.

In my experience moving from a very blue state to a very red state in highschool was that there were a LOT more drag shows in the red state. Granted, they didn’t take them as seriously, but definitely higher in number. This was around 2000.

“my humps my humps my humps”

In my experience those are typically shown with blinking arrows giving you a temporary speed boost as well.

You ever tried killing a trumpet vine? That shit will root under a 3 car garage and pop out the other side with a big middle finger.

Yes.

Yup! I got called a “lump” a lot by my mother and step dad at the time. Not because I was fat, but because they said I was lazy. I’m sorry you had to grow up that way.

Lucky! All my mom made me was polyurethane!

Kicks rocks “shucks”

We still have a rent-a-center here.

Remembering all the times growing up when teachers suggested I get tested for ADHD and my mom would refuse because she “wanted me to be me, not a zombie” but was wildly disastrous for my future. Now she claims she has it too.

Then she voted for trump 3X.

True, and a beard can be useful to break up the visual lines that the human brain identifies as a face. It’d only be a part of the overall camouflage profile, but if it’s already 1/3 done for you, it’s a win. But I can’t stand my beard getting that long. It’s like wearing a steel wool sweater to me.

Edit: not just human brain, animal brain.

I meant after basic survival needs have been met. Obviously food, water, shelter are more important. But humans are hard wired to feel a sense of some hygiene, though you wouldn’t know it from some people.

Bruh, when you’re out in the shit and get a chance to shave, you do it. If you’re used to a certain length, and CANT shave, it’s like #3 on the list of things you dream about when thinking about getting back to civilization. So if you’re always in the shit, you’ll always put it high on the list.

I ain’t givin you no tree fitty you damn loch ness monster!

Cess pit*

They make mushroom gummies too.

Shits too expensive lol
