This should be illegal.


I’m going to need y’all both to step away from the lathe.


I only skimmed it: they’re sending cannabis seeds, along with a number of other things, into space to see how they handle radiation. They believe cannabis would be useful for all sorts of things in a lunar or Mars colony.
I think that about sums it up.


Hi, I vape. You’re not wrong at all. One day I will quit, but for now it’s a psychological crutch (and physical addiction) that is less bad for me than the pack+ a day I smoked for like 9 or 10 years. I didn’t take your message as an attack, for the record. Just giving context for the rest. I would never intentionally blow vape in anyone’s face and have gone to great lengths to avoid doing so. The only exception to this has been with partners and friends where it’s an in thing.
Those same people would have probably blown cigarette smoke in your face, but there was such a negative social connotation. For some reason, people who vape seem to think that because it’s not smoke they are magically allowed to blow it in your face now and 'look cool '. For some reason not enough people are decking these individuals, so we’re not building that negative connotation properly.
Maybe some of these people are too young to even know that blowing cigarette smoke in someone’s face is rude? I’m in my 30s. That feels like more benefit of the doubt than I’m willing to give the overwhelming majority.


I did not know what waffle stomping was. I regrettably do now.


It’s horrible and I hate it. A partner in the past stopped wearing a velvet item of clothing. Not because I asked - I would never - but because I touched her noticably less when she’d wear it. I cannot stand the feeling.
Edit: peaches don’t bother me at all.


Potentially zinc oxide, then, which is horrible for you.

Yes, but I read someone make the point, much better than I will now, that Trump’s people are Trump’s people. They’re not Republicans or conservatives or whatever. They will support him no matter what.

Speaking entirely from personal experience, this is accurate. I don’t know what percentage of people in the US are Catholic, but at least where I’m at (the south) most are Protestant. I went from being raised as a church kid (Protestant, Pentecostal to be specific), to hanging out with pagans after I left the church, and with a bunch of other groups. Everyone makes fun of Catholics.
No, hot dog for centipede. It can fucking have it.


When will they make the sequel to Terraria, Aqua-Terraria?


That would be so much cooler than what it actually was.
