Y’know, the aliens don’t necessarily have to come from another planet, at least not in the traditional sense. 1) They could come from another, parallel dimension- as differentiated from other planes of reality within the same dimension. Sliders had that, and the MCU’s Multiverse titles seem to...

I’ve heard Jazzfest (?) is pretty epic. Perhaps one day…

My only visits to Atlanta were passing through to other destinations. And unfortunately, the last time was in 2005 or so, when landed from an international flight only to get trapped in the terminal overnight because of serious thunderstorms grounding my connecting flight. By the time I got...

There were definitely sci-fi stories that addressed that issue somewhat. The first one to mind was an old short story whose name I unfortunately can’t recall. The astronaut is issued a parrot as a companion on his exploratory mission because almost anything they could eat, a human could, and...

The guy watching an otter or gull eat one.

That’s an interesting response depending on how you pronounced the first word.

Huh, TIL that JFK was blamed for killing the hat market. Literally never heard this until you posted that! I’ve been into hats my whole life, so I’ve learned a bit about them, historically and anecdotally. Thing is, you can SEE the slow, gradual decline in hat wearing in documentary films and...

Mine are on file with the Feds at least because of requirements to study law and a security clearance investigation for a job. …which was actually a bit of a challenge for the authorities. My fingerprints have visible ridges, but they’re apparently much shallower than normal. The first time...

I realize it’s a joke, but my inner German demands that I explain that this would ALSO be admissible in a court of law.

I’ve seen a guy reading spicy parts of Fourth Wing (and other novels) in various cartoon character voices to a young lady.🤷🏾‍♂️ There’s a whole bunch of these, mostly on TikTok: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/dvJb6W-Qka8 https://m.youtube.com/shorts/Tkxo--tB4t4

And likely never will. It may not be feasible to grow those beans (and other foods that seem to have a terroir aspect) unless & until their natural environments experience some kind of damage. Those environments have an advantage…

Mod Note: I get what you’re saying, but that’s a very confrontational way of expressing yourself. Do better.

Mod Note: Your use of loaded rhetoric may be obscuring your message. Try to avoid terms like “woke” unless you’re absolutely clear that it’s not your personal word choice. Got it?

We usually just add more dairy. I use a bunch of butter, sub a little milk for water, and add 2-3 kinds of cheese. What I DON’T understand and reject every time is sweet grits, and it’s bizzaro world cousin, savory oatmeal.
