I have a very shiny head that now reflects a calmer place. Bigots can still fuck right off though. He/Him

It's definitionally ghoulish. As in they're cannibalising a dead person.

Yeah, There's that thing about a lot of scary looking maps really just being population heat maps.

No word on whether you can get RGB, though.

There are shunts that get installed in the skull/brain to help drain fluid buildups, so you could probably just modify one of those and go with liquid cooling instead.

So he was cut from the same cloth as the prop and set designers of Star Wars? That fits.

Also, wasn't 'natural enemy of the spider' the reasoning behind creating The Scorpion? It was definitely the in-universe motivation they gave in the 90s cartoon.

This Pope aims to be the one who gets the say on just how Catholic the Orange Catholic Bible will end up being.

Fuck me running! I knew he was a piece of shit of the highest order, but I wasn't aware he'd transcended the order to new lows hitherto only theorised!

I never realised he wasn't Jewish! I knew he was Glenda Jackson's kid, but never checked their family history beyond that. Him still using the triple parenthesis thing is so weird knowing that.

Yeah, the combination of sex church and monkeys just makes me think of Jonestown, and that puts me right off.

They should have just said that they managed to Nidelin it with no casualties.

Do you know what's weird, the company named itself Gilead after a Handmaid's Tale was released. To be clear, the company is in no way named after the theocratic fascist state in the novel, It's a reference to a perfume in the bible, but still.

If there was a world populated by sentient ice creams, this would be the talk of a serial killer.

Not exactly a revelation for most of us, tbh

Don't know if it changes anything, but that guy might be a huckster too.

Imagine if the Chameleon circuit was fixed, but just enough so that it could only transform into different styles of Police box

Frustrated that your wife wastes time caring for your child that she could spend caring for you? Not quite ready to go to the shop for cigarettes and never return? Try an AI companion! You'll be like that cool guy in Blade Runner!

What makes a train turn purple? Is it lust for money, power? Or were they just born with a heart full of purpality?

This is lovely. You should be proud of yourself! Plus I think the Space Wolves bring the winter with them wherever they go 😉

Don't you understand?! If a man uses hair ties designed for women, it can lead to a hormonal reaction that leads to massive hair loss through rejection! Ask me how I know!

I'm really enjoying this typo. It's so on theme!

This is run by a registered non-profit that feels the need to specify on their website that it's not like those other nonprofits that are grifts. Being the most heterosexual heterosexuals to ever hetero; one would think they'd heard of the lady who doth protest too much.

Now I'm thinking that if you did another adaptation you could have the age be 21, still cast the typical Hollywood 25 year-olds playing sixteen year olds, and then have one of the twists be that the computer has such control that it can keep people it deems useful to be 'under 21' for years longer.
comment in response to post
I think it was 21 in the book. They aged it up for the movie because that made it easier to cast.

(And is still doing now, just independently)

The comment on 'mental capacity' aside, who gives a fuck about the flexibility of a head of state? They're not firefighters! If we end up in a situation where there physical abilities actually matter, we're so beyond fucked that it's moot.

Apparently Michael R. Jackson and Anna K. Jacob's musical adaptation of 'Teeth' is pretty good.

'Surprisingly feminist Charlton Heston' is something I'm here for.

If you want an alternative path that doesn't involve studying architecture, apparently designing costumes for Muppets is also useful experience.
