Same emotions?

On a good day by Above and Beyond.

I first heard it at a rave, rolling on ecstacy, going through pretty bad depression. It was during their “Group Therapy” set. I felt so connected to everyone around me. So peaceful. So understood. I cared and loved everyone around me and I felt the same in return. Sure, I was high. But it was a moment a decade ago that I can still remember vividly, and a point where I started taking my mental health seriously and started to deal with it and finally start to feel good about myself.

I specifically will boycott places if their ads annoy me enough.

I want a replica of the ocarina from Lunar: A Silver Star Story.

It’s such a beautiful instrument.

Just make it long with an intermission.

Lots of old musical films did that. Like Oklahoma!, Fiddler on the Roof, and Hello Dolly.

Lol. No ai. Just a really bad Photoshop of the mentos label.

Rhapsody’s Holy Thunderforce is just so damn entertaining.

And Helloween’s Eagle Fly Free is pretty high on my list.

Besides all that manual labor requires math. A ton requires geometry.

You think plumbing, framing, electrical or any trade is done without measuring and quite complicated math?

I’ve heard this story before, it’s not a new incident. It’s also getting a lot of coverage from lots of media.

’May you live in interesting times’ is the worst thing one can wish on a citizen of Discworld, especially on the distinctly unmagical Rincewind, who has had far too much perilous excitement in his life and can’t even spell wizard.

Utopias are inherently dystopian in they only work when everyone wants the same things and everyone is bound by strict rules. There is no such thing as a utopia.

This is far from boring. It’s terrifying.

Finding the correct bolt size, thread pitch, material, and trusting that when I order grade 8 bolts, I’m actually getting grade 8 makes Amazon quite a pain in the ass.

If it’s something I don’t care too much about, yea Amazon is fine. But when I want to trust my life to it or it’s going to take some serious stress I’m going to want McMaster.

I’ve been tempted to create a bot that does nothing but search comments in code for misspelled words and create pull requests for them.

If it stays in comments, little chance in breaking a working codebase and I’d have an insane amount of commits and contributions to a wide variety of codebases for my resume.

I’ll never be a top tier coder. But I might make management.

Break up monopolies.

Healthcare.

Enforce fairness and ethical journalism.

Regulate social media. (Influencers, advertisements, disinformation.)

I would literally prefer a steaming pile of shit as president than Trump.

Bunker gear isn’t using asbestos anymore. It would be nomex and kevlar now.

Whichever path it takes. It will only go in a single path unless you have some incestuous relationships. And if that happens and multiple routes work, it doesn’t matter which one you take.
