Hey Cain, I need your "JEWS LIVE UNDER MY BED" rant, if you have it saved.

Yesterdays Star Trek Discovery (S4E6) was the absolute worst episode ever made, from any series ever.

I say this as a Discovery fan. 

It ruined my life.

Who wants a cookie? Oh you don't oh I see.

Ask them a couple of other questions to get the "no"s started.  Then ask about the cookie.

Yeah, it's a whole lot of fun.

For me, the favorite age is 4-8.  They're old enough to ask questions, and young enough to want to ask the questions.

I'm looking forward to this, we are at the yes/no stage (everything is no)

There's a cure for that.

By the way, has anyone heard from Altered/Nullified?

I'm beginning to worry a bit.

You should know better than that. I’m like bedbugs: what doesn’t kill me turns me into a biblical plague.

Nah, but really, I’m actually doing mostly okay. I’m doing the need-work-need-housing dance again, but I have a wonderful lady I’m seeing later today so it is… really hard to care about my personal trouble.

It’s Bloodborne and Glenmorangie 10 yr tonight. It’s the second date.

At some point the story will need telling, because we met because A: I met Discordians visiting Chicago, B: I realized I liked not being a hermit, and C: I thought she was a scumfuck Nazi infiltrator.

I haven’t been posting because I’m tired and old. I’m using diclofenac gel on my knees, really. I keep intending to post and clean forgetting, or else realizing that I have no valuable contributions.

“I’m homeless on Jan 1st again, but I got a date coming up” is like a minced oath minus the creative writing part, and now that I’m tethered to Chicago (I would die for this woman, I am goddamn well staying in transit range) what can anyone even do to save me anyway?

Sorry for the worry.

I'm just glad you're alive to check in.

Sorry I meant I am glad he got creamed and not someone else, no sympathy for him

Yes, it scored low on body count, but got full marks for grotesqueness.

I love facebook.  It lets me be me without all the expensive dental work.

Incredibly relieved he only hurt himself, generally the play stupid games win stupid prizes games on the road results in people who weren't even playing getting the prize

What?  No, that dude was as dead as you get.

NPCs?

Hey, what's it like to be a real person in a world of zombies?  It has to be kind of special.

Feels like it did when 80% of people stayed home and I was driving to work on an empty highway because I was termed "essential".  Essential to what?  No one knows.

It's a shame and a disgrace that you were literally the only person that happened to.

I wish Generalissimo was still around.  He'd hold your hand and dry your tears.

I have good word that the Generalissimo is alive and well. Can't say the same about the state of Salazore, though.

If the generalissimo was alive, the world would be still be sexy.

Does the world look sexy right now?

Norton saw his first Tucson moment today.

He and Renee (one of his wives) and I were coming back from lunch when this dude jets into traffic, cuts two people off, and gets creamed by a box truck.  Guy flies out of his window and lands across a fire hydrant.

Norton:  *turns green*

Renee:  *smiles*

Renee is my current short duration personal savior.

What in the everlasting fuck is going on here? I haven’t read a single post l, but I’m appalled!

Everything fell apart, nobody did anything.

Oh, wait.  Are you talking about the world in general, or just this board?
