  I’ve always had an obsession with maps, which as an adult has brought me to wanting to visit the “extremes” of the world. Far north, far south points of things. But I’m not the adventurous type so a lot of those places are just never going to happen. Nuuk has always been high on my list of places that would be neat, while not being impossible to get to comfortably.

  Wow, I remembering having these cards/book when I was a kid. I wonder what ever happened to them.

  Sounds pretty incredible. When I met my lost brother years back, we found out he was kind of an asshole.

  Professors are burned and jaded so much by students taking advantage of their test taking policies that they fail to see when there should absolutely be an exception. Visible medical emergencies are certainly one of them. They should not only not be professors, they should be fired or arrested for endangering you. It’s crazy that sort of thing can just happen, but it’s absolutely realistic having been through it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon goes to the gym for the first time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Years ago, a buddy got me going to his gym so he could show me the ropes. He’d been lifting most of his life and I really trusted him. It was the sort of gym where people go to do serious work. A lifter’s lifting gym. Everyone there looked so serious and were pressing so much weight. I have never been that sort.

  But they were all incredibly kind to me. Helped me when they thought I needed it. Never in a demeaning way. Any bad vibes I got from them was pretty much on me.

  Those were really cool times. The gym would shut down about two years later and I haven’t really gone to a gym since.

  The clutch is a third pedal to the left of the brake which lets you disengage the engine and transmission so you can change the gear then let the pedal out, engaging the new gear.

  With a clutch, the brake pedal is usually really narrow. So when you get into an automatic instincts will tell you to press the clutch and change gears but that pedal doesn’t exist and the wide brake pedal is there instead. Instead of changing gears, you slam the brake.

  References to Gayle will always make me happy.

  I locked into something, but I have no idea what it is. Cool.

  That dog looks nothing like Harry Potter.

  I don’t remember the last time I was properly comfortable.

  It’s got amazing characters and a fun premise. Writing is pretty mid but the standout moments are incredible.
