A Little Hyperbole

Amber @AmbiePam (102834) • United States 6 Sep

I was given this candle in the picture, and I texted my sister that if she ever wanted someone to love her forever, she would give them this candle. Do you ever do that? You get something you unexpectedly love so...

I Believe He Was an Air Dancer

At some point the gates of the asylums were let open (in fact, in the 80s), and so, sometimes you encounter some rather interesting people on the sides of the road or in other places. You get all the usual fare. People talking to...

J.N.R Dutton Alternatively, people can use these to learn to interact with their fellow human better, maybe. Like rehearsing for a job interview,etc. I don't think they should replace human connection. Though interactions may mimic the organic, the AI will never actually...

Duck Tape vs. Duct Tape

Jim Bauer @porwest (107426) • United States 25 Aug

J.N.R Dutton Not all my son's toy guns are NERF brand, but many of them are (and others resemble NERF aesthetically) so it's easy to catch myself calling them NERF collectively for ease of reference.

What do you take on a trip no matter what?

Amber @AmbiePam (102834) • United States 16 Aug

I prefer not to fly, but we are next month so I’m sure I’ll deal with it. My sister made a list of things for me to remember to take, but I’m still packing as light as I can. I mostly just want to keep as much energy as possible,...

Braised Pork Is What's for Dinner Tonight

Jim Bauer @porwest (107426) • United States 5 Aug

Braised pork steaks. Or in this case, braised pork butt steaks, which are a very similar cut, and only slightly different than an actual pork steak. But it's what's for dinner tonight, and if you have followed me long...

J.N.R Dutton I try to avoid medication as much as possible, I am glad your steadiness improved. The worst side effect I ever had was from a med called baclofen, and my father quickly took me off of it, thankfully. I am just glad the side effect wasn't permanent.
