A friend got me to try an episode of Lower Decks and it felt so cynical to me. To explain why I wasn’t interested in watching more, we watched Darmok and Measure of a Man. Trek was very aspirational back then.

Order the parts, get told they’re on backorder for 3 months, finally get told they don’t make the part anymore.

Because of the swift and gluttonous bone eating camel slug that has infected almost all camels, many of the camel bones have yet to be discovered. Psychics have been used to fill in where science has failed, though with new methods both for combatting the slugs and looking inside of live camels on the horizon, many are eager to discover the remaining bones.

Sorry, yes, you are correct. There’s usually a stink made whenever fahrenheit is used so I was just being playful with that.

Oops, forgot the extra $ for $$_°, the double dollar degree. The other one is the more widely accepted Euro degree, though some prefer degrees sterling, £_°.

I still stand in front of the oven for a moment after taking stuff out of it when it’s over $90°/€32° but I get popsicle toes at $76°/€24°.

From the textbook The New Old Sexuality: A Cross Cultural Look at Kink
Achieving orgasm through pain has several phases shown as wave-like peaks in this image. The phases are known as the Western Pain (WP), Trough of Shift (ToS), Western Orgasm (WO), Refractory Trough (RT), Eastern Pain (EP), Trough of Ascendance (TA), and Eastern Orgasm (EO, also known colloquially as the And-gasm). Research into new phases tentatively called the Northern Orgasm (or exclusive or-gasm) is ongoing but requires pain beyond what stupid Donna on the ethics committee is willing to approve.

Too much Shogun Showdown.
DLC came out for Chained Echoes and I started that only to realize I needed a refresher on some of the characters and the plot. Once that’s done, I’m looking forward starting it for reals.

- Comment on Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed 1 month ago:
No, they were not directly involved and no, pimping minors was not proven in court. Money laundering and conspiracy to facilitate prostitution were the charges that stuck. In fact, prosecutors claiming they were involved in child sex trafficking caused a mistrial apnews.com/…/business-trials-3b1c9d3e59e90cd60764…
The point is not about what they did or didn’t do, it’s that if you try to go outside the system you get hammered.

That’s what Backpage tried to do when the cc processors pulled out. The owners of Backpage were at some point charged with money laundering among many many other crimes. The years of legal battles that started in 2018 drove one of them to suicide. Would not recommend.

Idiotectomies required the subject’s corporation for the best results. Hanneman’s (Journal of Medical Ethics, June 2017) breakthrough, illustrated here, uses bomb glasses to increase compliance. It is rare the fuse needs to be lit, but a lighter should be kept in plain view of the subject as both reminder and enforcement if necessary.

Bioremediation of sewage locations in the aim of the new type of shark. The benzoylecgonine causes the shark to seek out these locations. The cocaine provides the desire to clean until every last speck is gone while telling nearby fish about its screenplay.

Capturing a retrograde ejaculation on film is a rite of passage for many medical videographers. The urethra is plugged up by the camera leaving nowhere for ejaculate to go but into the bladder. The prostate is simulated until orgasm. Once the filming is complete, the subject should be given a light snack and released back into the wild.

Squids are naturally clostrophobic when on land. Signs include squirming and dilated pupils. Soothing music and conversation can help, but often times the patient must be sedated to obtain an MRI.
