  Apparently (and this is from memory, so caveat emptor) when young the balls can be uneven. During puberty, one might say “Oh no! I must become even!” and twist up on itself.

  This is resovled (at least in my case) with a local anesthetic and manual untwisting. Followed by a procedure where they sew your balls to your sack so they can’t try it again.

  I had this as a teenager. Would not recommend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it theoretically possible Trump and ICE are killing a very large number of immigrants (like 25% of those detained) and no one knows?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  ICE has some reporting requirements that they are (Maybe? To some extent?) still following.

  This tool was doing some collection for that: github.com/…/ice_detention_scraper

  (Development has hit a bit of a snag recently unfortunately.)

  It isn’t fully in a unique language, but Nell was pretty famous at the time for the weird language Jodie Foster spoke in for…most of the film?

  Good point, but it’s “Custer”, not " Custard".

  Although I kinda like the idea of a trembling, gelatious shape being the asshole that led the charge at Little Bighorn…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reject reality⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So Bruce Springsteen wrote the original version of “Blinded By the Light”. But Manfred Mann’s version was the one that was a huge hit. And Mann’s version does say “wrapped up like a douche” (versus Springsteen saying “revved up like a duce”).

  I saw an interview with Springsteen where he speculated that was the biggest writing mistake he’d made. If only he’d said “wrapped up like a douche”, maybe his version would have sold better.

  I do have one, yes. I’m not currently using it, but if I recall it is basically vanilla OSMC, yes.

  The Vero V isn’t too bad: osmc.tv/vero/ The hardware is decent, and the remote is surprisingly better than I expected.
