- Comment on Why do so many people seem confused about what appeals to male gays? Do they not know how sexual orientation works? 1 week ago:
Check out the work of Luca Guadagnino. Very male gaze on male gays. Daniel Craig included.

I bought some big lifetime thing to astraweb, then the usenet indexer i had used for years shut down. 15 years later I log into astraweb and they have converted my purchase to a set data amount.

Dark Reader for edge is on here but the Firefox one isn’t listed so I’m good there i guess? Super sad i had to uninstall my cat fact extensions. It was nice to have instant access to cat facts in the menu bar.

Lol, I see how it reads like wes Anderson I’ve never thought of it that way. I was definitely less clever and not as perfectly dressed. At the time it felt more like something from Richard Linklater.

I was riding a bus once, which was rare at the time as I usually took the street car, and i had taken some acid earlier and was coming back from a 4ish mile walk from the river to a flag store and at the bus stop this guy starts talking and showing me the slingshot he has. He’s telling me all about the different kinds of slingshot and some weird stuff too but the whole time be is shooting dried beans across the street. He’s like a sniper. He’s calling out letters on signs across the street and just nailing them without breaking conversational stride. The bus came and I got on and he didn’t. He wasn’t even waiting for a bus, he was just excited about the slingshot I guess.
After I got on the bus I sat in a double seat by myself and my friends took similar positions. A lady got on at the next stop and sat next to me. She was a French expat who, at the advice of her psychiatrist, was riding the bus and practicing having conversations with people. She told me all that immediately upon sitting down. Then we had a pretty normal conversation for what felt like forever but could only have been 15 minutes.

Yeah, my experience jibes with that too. I wear sunscreen everyday and I feel like I’m pretty conscientious but I end up getting red by the end of the day often. The problem with it, i find, is that it’s time consuming to do one’s exposed skin properly or it involves another person. I’m either working or recreating outside so I know I miss applications due to impatience and inattention. I switched to pants, hats, and long sleeves for outdoor living the past decade or so and it’s a huge improvement. Just sweatier.

Reapply q2 hours and every time you use a towel. I don’t think most sunscreen is advertising all day Protection.

- Comment on I’m very good at math and would like health insurance. What is the easiest option? 2 months ago:
Not to do it once but to do it for hour after hour whole tournament leaves a lot of room mistakes! That’s what separates the wheat from the chaff.

All we can see is his haircut (he’s lined up fine), his glasses (nothing obvious) and his shirt (odd). I think it’s a jump to say a make over will do this man more good than not wearing a shirt that says “I want to have sex with the youngest woman I legally can.” Which comes off like minimum wage thinking, sort of how they’d pay you less if it were legal.

- Comment on If trump shaved his head and didn't wear any makeup do you think you would recognize him? 3 months ago:
The question was if someone removed their makeup also not just shaved their head. For the question and answer to match the people in my response must be people who normally wear makeup.

I don’t think I could with anyone except my wife and even that would take a minute.

I would be way more surprised if people who saw numbers with colors all saw the same numbers.
- Comment on Anon orders food 3 months ago:
Once a group of us were playing spin the bottle and it landed on me and the girl said eww, he’s like my brother or whatever and then spun again and the guy it landed on got a double bj from her and her friend. I felt sad at the time, especially since we were all camping so we could hear them in the tents. I’m still friends with those girls (now grown women.) Your story reminded me of that and I haven’t thought of it in 20 years.

- Comment on fruit flies are not ergodic 3 months ago:
Fruit flies are attracted to the different human life stages by temperature inversely proportional to the humans age. They like hot babies, warm adolescents, cold adults and the rest can kind of be fit into that continuum.

I’ve been in and out of night vale for what seems like 15 years and still haven’t finished it but do enjoy when I go on listening jags. I can see how it would run thin

- Comment on Why do people hold tobacco cigarettes and cannabis joints differently when smoking them? 4 months ago:
I prefer to smoke in the cigarette style and those long cardboard crutches in pre rolls are so nice. I feel like if I’m using my fingertips I have to be real aware of the cherry but between my fingers it’s out of the way and ready for dramatic gesturing.

In the sterile text fields that compose the internet, you can’t hear the slide rack sound that precedes every American utterance.
- Comment on Is it possible to eat a toxic amount of culinary herbs/spices? 4 months ago:
Parachuted some and mixed some with milk. I wouldn’t recommend. Nothing worth possibly dying over.
- Comment on Is it possible to eat a toxic amount of culinary herbs/spices? 4 months ago:
IIRC when I took it recreationally itwas many many grams to get to the hallucinations part. It was hard to stomach. Unless the safety profile is pretty narrow I’d say it would be difficult to complete suicide with nutmeg.
- Comment on Will AI Startups End Up Like Blockchain Startups? 5 months ago:
End up like AOL and get big enough to buy time Warner and make a lot investors very rich? I feel like your downplaying the success of aol. Last I heard that whatever was left of them in Yahoo was supposedly still making money.

The anchor points are usually in the bed or the side of the stake holes. On my truck (half ton dodge) none of the places to tie on to are visible.

I don’t know if mine had those streaks but I do see what your saying.
- Comment on A stranger peeled the clearcoat off my car 5 months ago:
Maybe a person but I’ve had that happen too and didn’t suspect anyone. My friend who does auto body work said it was because I never wax my truck and park in the sun. Hopefully it’s the same for you. Here’s to a better day!
