Yes

I love the flowing feeling too, and it’s noticeably faster, but unfortunately mine looks crap

Oh I remember hearing about them, yes “pussy riot” is a generalised feminist protest group in Russia. Women’s rights and gay rights, probably other stuff as well.

And “free pussy riot” must mean “release members of pussy riot who are locked up” - but at first I thought it was like “free the nipple” or “free pussy here if you riot!”

World of Goo, anyone?

Recently there was a thread where a lot of people were expressing their hatred of handwriting, so according to them that was a waste of my time (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ I do even write much neater in normal script compared to handwriting.

Other than that nothing stands out, so either I’m unskilled or super focused

What a great question. Lastly movie i watched was Tolkien - a biopic focusing on his experience as an orphan, his schooling, his university, and his experience in the battle of the somme.

Last video game I played was The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian, a text-based choose-your-own-adventure RPG chronicling the course of a character’s life.

They work together very well. It would be a choose-your-own-adventure as Tolkien.

That's good enough for me. 
Moral, and awake, he seems to be.  
Eagerly do i await the rest  
Of his rule; one can hope the best.  
For Burn'm is no Kier Starmer -  
A robot, tyrant, people harmer.  
Andy shows ingenuity -  
That facet Britain needs urgently.  
It's clear that he, in this role  
Will outperform the typical mole.  

I turned on my cat brain for this post and I’ve got to say: dude, you have some seriously dangerous-looking socks!

When you’re watching “Friends” and think that the characters are actually friends.

They’re a polycule.

I realise I have read nowhere near enough books to answer this definitively.

I’d say war and peace is actually the stand out, but then I know other Russian authors like dostoevsky did similar books. War and place’s u illness is that tolstoy writes like a kid who doesn’t realise that curtailment/limitation is a core facets of book writing - he tries and succeeds in writing the lives of many people over the course of many years; it’s big. You see it and go “oh that’s it? I could read that, actually.” But when you sit down to read it, you’re hit eith another big Ness- it’s detail. Tolstoy is in no rush to get the story off it’s feet. He wants you feel everything and note every detail. Live through the soiree, the mundanity, and the trauma as well as the glory at the end of the book. That’s war and peace.

At the moment I’m reading Chaucer’s Canterbury tales and even though it’s one of the very oldest “classics” of English literature, (beaten out by beowulf and maybe something else) I think people still “sleep upon it.” There’s something really special about how sequenced and ordered it is, and the novel is a scherezade (a story is told within a story being told within a story). Also portrays medieval culture through the lens of medieval contempories, and it’s surprisingly close to the stereotype - there’s lots of crude and physical humour, adultery and the threat of physical reprisal for all manner of things. Great - maybe even essential -for learning how to effectively write medieval settings.

Link to the bot post?

Also, i upvoted. Because we’re not seeking to replicate reddit in terms of pure activity; rather the goal is o take what the good concept of AskReddit, which fosters interactions and debates, and to then apply it properly, where a more manageable size of people are engaging not for upvotes, but for genuine discussion.

Very crazy. I didn’t notice this for a lot of my life, i think heavy phone screen usage prevented my brain from daydreaming (or allows you a chance to daydream), and i usually did my daydreaming while practising music or playing video games. I’m noticing it a lot more in adulthood.

Your experience of adhd sounds really tough, congratulations on getting through that. I’m near the end of my first titration for an ADHD med and I’m kind of worried about missing out on a better one. But what you say about amphetamine makes me more confident in that regard.

Is he not on Instagram?

An indie game i really like got attacked by trolls spreading lies about the art being AI, even when the game developers responded with evidence that their art wasn’t AI generated.

Hoping the best for your dog and for you

Really

Ron Swanson is the greatest libertarian thinker ever… so staunch to his ideals, and, since he is not a fascist, he’s open to other people’s political ideas and we see him change his stances on things. I didn’t like parks and rec that much but i loved him.

As a British person I do basically have two accents I primarily use.

All the more reason for it to aggressively expand and become too big to fail, or add further diversification to its business model
