Honestly, now that I know Pee Pee island is in the mix, I’m sold on a trip to Newfoundland. Dildo was almost enough to make that happen as it was.

Edit: There’s campsites at Dildo Run Provincial Park, btw. Do with that information what you will, people.

We got the Subproject 68 expansion set here.

I don’t know if it was actually under rated or unrecognized where it aired, but as someone who was trawling for TV to watch that you don’t see in North America, I fucking love Monkey Dust out of the UK.

Dark comedy animated sketch show.

Huh. Can’t help but wonder if this is connected to why a significant amount of people find asses sexually attractive across gender lines - something about signs of a good persistance hunter (likely quite overstated by base monkey brain), and therefore ability to provide for spawn.

Probably not, but makes ya think. I also accept that I’m thinking about it from a heteronormative, sex as biological imperative for spreading genes POV - so limited and overall probably wrong.

Dope. As. Fuck.

Or questions that sound like they’re rhetorical, or being asked for provocation’s sake, but are being asked in good faith.

Source: I say ‘honest question’ a lot, and not as a rhetorical device - I just want real answers to questions that might be dumb/asked dishonestly (e.g. as put-downs) in other contexts.

Good luck today!

Listening to a folk punk song that uses the word fuck to great effect on Spotify yesterday, wondering why the fuck the line ‘If you fuck up I will still be your friend’ reads ‘If you f up’.

I just don’t get it. Fuck is a valid, if vulgar, part of the common English lexicon. It serves a purpose.

I never held any real hope for the flying car, and always thought the moon cities were predicted way earlier than would be feasible.

The real question is where. is. my. god damn. hoverboard!?

Depends on the kink. Leather, whips, and paddles? Always been at least a little cool. Electroplay? Very cool.

Diaper play? To each their own, but not cool.

Two choices:

1. Medical mask and sunglasses (preferably those boxy ones people wear over regular glasses). Few people question medical masks these days.
2. Embrace the lunacy, and wear whatever mask/facial covering you think is cool/funny. Life’s short and a lot of people would do well to embrace harmless weirdness.

It’s very much a different strokes for different folks kinda thing. People I know prefer LSD and other, closely related lysergamides because it gives a bit more of an energy boost - I’ve heard it described as shrooms with a shot of espresso. Others prefer shrooms because it’s a little more laid back feeling.

Granted, your set and setting is really going to set the tone for whatever psych you ingest. Things can go amazingly or very, very badly with either substance depending on your headspace and how you set yourself up/structure your environment for the experience.

Naive in the sense that it doesn’t adequately account for the situation of many people. Not everyone has the circumstances where they can do this. I can’t help but feel there’s some survivorship bias influencing your position.

I’m curious, though, if you’re up to illustrating (if not, totally fine): You are a single mother of two sons, ages 7 and 8, living in Generic State, USA. You have a high school degree and no post-secondary education. You have limited support, solely in the form of limited childcare, from family/the wider community. You make about $1600.00 USD per month, after taxes, working 50 hours a week at a physical workplace. You’re finding yourself with $10 left at the end of each month, after all legitimately necessary expenses (rent, food, basic utilities) are paid for. Let’s make it easy and say you have no debt.

What are you doing, and where are you going, if following your advice? It should be noted these circumstances are actually quite a bit better than other folks in the U.S. To be clear, I don’t think this is a gotcha, nor is it intended to be - I just want to see your approach here.

Edit: Monthly wage should be after taxes, not before, and changed $900 to $1600 (based roughly on monthly takehome pay at Ohio’s minimum wage rate, and I calculated for 1 pay period rather than 2 per month)

So, question: You’re someone with a not-remote-friendly skill set. You save your money to travel - travel, mind you, not immigrate, so subject to the visa requirements of travellers/tourists (as this seems to be what you’re talking about - immigration is a whole different kettle of fish). The money runs out. What do?

Or - you’re living paycheck to paycheck with children. You try to save money to travel for the reasons you’ve brought up here. It’s not possible. What do?

No offence, but your account of travel as a solution here seems deeply naive. It can work for some, sure, but “just leave the country bro” simply isn’t an option at all for many, many people.

Oof, right in my consummate v’s…

If I have this kind of influence, please let me know where I can guffaw so y’all can get some socialized health care.

Oh, 100%, dude was factually correct and I didn’t chuckle at him, just found the whole “Canadian in a Californian dollar store buying ‘exotic’ Japanese beer that is actually Canadian macrobrew from a brewery 5 hours west of his home” thing really amusing.

It was from far away - like, the other side of the continent - but not the kind of far away you’d expect given the branding.

Edit: That said, this was several years ago - a little Googling suggests that if I did this now, it would be even less exotic, and brewed by Stone Brewing in Escondido, CA.

Canadian, so it’s not all that different, but why. can. I. buy. liquor. in. a. PHARMACY?

Don’t know if this is just a California thing, but it was weird as fuck. What’s even weirder, in light of this, is they didn’t go whole hog and sell cigarettes too. 'Cause helf.

Side story: Went into a Dollar General and bought a can of Sapporo. Ok, not so weird, it’s functionally a super basic grocery store with a bunch of other cheap goods. Guy at the counter said, “Oh yeah, they make this beer in some place very far away”. Looked at the can - I’m pretty sure he meant Japan, not Guelph, ON Canada.

He wasn’t wrong but I did chuckle.
