  • I mean, foster the people.

    I’m hoping that’s the obvious one for everybody.

    But also for me, Jamiroquai. Dropping some line about how it’s not nature’s way for a mother to be able to choose the color of her child randomly in the middle of a song about how the world is changing so quick, and nobody can keep up with it.

    At the same time, though, I’m nitpicking. It’s just that one line in otherwise a cool song.

    Flipside, I do not enjoy ICP, but my friends started playing the Shangri-La album, and I didn’t know it was ICP, and I was like, man, this is actually pretty good, and then they were like, yeah, it’s ICP, don’t you like it? And I was like, well shit, they got like, one kind of decent album, fuck.

    Yeah, it’s definitely all ten, although I can see how I would regret that choice from time to time.

    Fortunately, robot hands are pretty cool, and I’m sure that if the world were prosperous and they saw somebody with no fingers, they would all chip in to help back out. So it wouldn’t be like terrible forever, but it would definitely have its moments where it sucks.

  • I don’t know. I mean, there’s a good chance that the original purchase price of the house is almost paid off, but having a sudden $76,000 increase in your bills is going to be tough on anybody. Unless they have made some very bad financial decisions outside of this, that probably is more than double their monthly mortgage.

    And as somebody who has an inordinate amount of equity in a house they purchased far too recently for the amount of equity that I have, it is not exactly easy to pull money out of a house as a homeowner, And even if they do take loans to pay the tax burden, that doesn’t mean that the money has been handled. It just has taken today’s problem and pushed it off for tomorrow.

    I’m not attempting to justify them. I’m just examining their side with the slightest benefit of the doubt.


  • I would actually prefer anonymous advice when I’m having issues in a relationship because typically when people gripe about their relationships they only talk about the bad things and they only talk to people that care about them.

    This ends up making it so that the people you are talking to hear all the bad stuff about the other person, and that causes them to start to dislike that other person.

    It’s too easy to build negative feedback loops that can destroy relationships.

    If talking to the internet isn’t good and talking to your friends isn’t good, then the only thing that’s really valid and valuable left would be to talk to a relationship counselor, or a personal therapist, whose only goal is to help you achieve your goals in a way that is healthy for you.





  • I have friends who have dreams about going to work.

    I have friends who have dreams about showing up to a hangout and hanging out with people.

    I dream about leading a choir of nuns on a singing rampage through New York and fighting epic space battles where it turns out that the Darth Vader equivalent of my dream is actually my cousin, which I only learn after I kill him, where priceless and irreplaceable books on witchcraft are destroyed to make wrapping paper due to a shopkeeper’s error, where I am told mysteries of the universe and song and hear songs that have never been sung before.

    Dreams are like your brain’s way of processing information and defragging your personality.

    Everyone’s got different kinds of dreams.
