Awesome. The guys at Dupont, Chemours (a subsidiary of Dupont), and 3M who put this shit into everything despite their own testing in the 70’s showing that it accumulated in humans and caused an increase in cancer must be super proud of themselves. They made their CEO’s millionaires, and all they had to do was poison everyone they ever knew, loved or cared about (plus everyone else).

fantastic video. I’ve only ever acted in the theater, and he really does make clear how much different acting is within the two mediums. Plus Michael comes off as a wonderfully talented, yet approachable and kind. Glad I watched!

I love that outfit on Data though. Lavender really is his color

Nope. Bernie and his next-gen bloc of Progressives have been consistently trying to get medicare for all passed. They last introduced it in May of last year.

Yeah, new star trek just has not been paying off. At least the first season of Picard was pretty good. and I love all of Lower Decks (RIP).

Levar Burton - The New Spock

lol as if Spock would ever get lovesick over a hologram of a person, just to have the real person show up and hate him

I’m aware that Whoopie once said that the holocaust “wasn’t about race, but man inhumanity towards man.” For which she apologized. Is there something else that makes you say she’s thoroughly loathsome?

My first thought was “It’s the guy from Frighteners!”

I still have my original Nintendo 64 Gold edition that I purchased when I was 13 or so. I’ve recently got it hooked back up, and discovered that playing Mario Kart while on my recumbent stationary bicycle makes the time fly past. I speed up my pedaling cadence whenever I’m on straightaways, stop pedaling when I have to hard brake, makes for a more vibrant workout. In fact, it’s worked out so well it has me thinking about how well a gym/arcade hybrid business would do…

Also I finally figured out how to drift for a speed boost, so. come at me, bro

where do you buy your tickets?

God Bless you Conan O’Brien, tears of laughter from how hard you went on that. You didn’t have to go that hard, but god bless you for it

dang. I just want a cheap private island

but dude, it’s like a man-made private island. Perfect zombie apocalypse shelter, you’d just have to ensure they couldn’t crawl up the anchor line

Suppose I was to purchase one of these container ships. Then suppose I was to anchor it off shore somewhere warm. Then I built a house on there, making boat trips to shore for supplies. Would I have to pay any taxes on my houseboat?

Could bring in loads of dirt, start a garden, more dirt, plant some trees…

I’ll maybe let a couple chill people also come aboard, to build houses of their own… maybe.

This is also a concern of mine. My thinking is that you’ll need to maintain an intact Central Nervous System for this to occur. If death is the result of traumatic brain injury, I can’t imagine that this would occur. But as long as you have an intact brain/spinal chord, you’re good.

This is the third time I’ve come across an article like this, and they all line up with my theory of dying.

First of all, Humans have the unconscious ability to alter their perception of time. From moments that last forever, to years that pass in a flash. I think when we really pay attention, and are really ‘tuned into’ what’s happening, we become more perceptive, and things just slow down. Like the first time you watch an epic movie, where the cinematic shots seem to take their time in delivering the ‘feeling’ of the scene. And upon a rewatch, now it seems like those slow set-up shots are slightly faster. What’s changed? well, you were on the edge of your seat when you watched it the first time. You slowed your perception of it without really being aware that you did it.

Secondly, the afterlife is fake, but heaven is real. That sounds paradoxical, but let me explain. There is no evidence to suggest that there exists some deity or that they created a big ‘afterparty’ for every ones . But, we have had people technically die, and then come back reporting that they saw their grandparents, or old dog, or a bright inviting light. This is where my first posit comes into play. When you die, your brain gives you one last hurrah. As evidenced in this dying patient, and countless other studies showing a massive dopamine and serotonin rush. What I believe, is that during this time, your perception of time plummets, and you hallucinate, envision, dream (whatever you wanna call it), whatever you want. But not just what you want, what you expect. Remember, this is a personalized, once-in-a-lifetime hallucination. You’re dying, you know it, and whatever you’ve decided happens when you die, is what you experience. If you think you deserve heaven filled with all your old friends, pets, and donuts, well, that’s what you’re going to get. If you’re raised catholic and lead a terrible life, thinking you deserve hell, well, that’s what your experience will be.

I imagine that this trip can last, ultimately, however long you want. You’re not stopping time, just your perception of it. At least, that’s my theory.

Through harnessing tardigrade proteins, we could potentially alleviate damaging effects of long-term stasis on the human body, which is one of the key inventions necessary for true interplanetary travel/space exploration. The other, would be stable cold fusion.

I still hope to see these problems solved within my lifetime

Alternatively, you can have rejuvenating effects on cells by injecting older patients with a young persons blood.

It’s cool, but any time I start thinking about it, I end up flooded with horrible depictions of dystopian levels of abuse that’s likely to result from this becoming a trend among the uber-rich.

When I first played Final Fantasy 7, it was a shining moment in my friend group. They had played the game years previous and had loved it, and they were introducing me to it. This was the first turn-based strategy game I had ever played, and I was legit into it. I’d be playing when they got home from work or classes, and they’d just chill on the couch watching me play.

This had been going on for like a week or so, and I was nearing this tumultuous. pivotal moment in the game. My friends, knowing this would soon happen, had been watching more intently, asking probing questions about who I liked more, Tifa or Arith, among other little jabs, hinting at their foreknowledge without spoiling it.

And that’s when it happened, a newer friend to the group walked in, shot a glance at the screen, looked at everyone and said “Oh, FF7. Arith died yet?”

The entire room went slackjawed, and I believe an assortment of random objects were thrown at him, but what was said had been heard, and when Arith died in-game just minutes later, I felt robbed.

Haven’t really cared about getting engrossed into a single-player game since.

Dude that Aladdin game sucked, I could never get past the flying carpet through the lava stage :(
