We need to revive other mega fauna first, otherwise they'll just eat us as the next best choice. Big predators require big prey.

In the past 14 years, ever since becoming an adult, I have had to move 11 different times. I have learned just how useful good boxes are. I can't get rid of them, I'm gonna need them when I move again next year.

Him being 33 years old hits me kind of hard (in a good way) because I'm just a year younger than him.
When I see his age, one of my first thoughts is, "That could be me." Seeing candidates my age actually succeeding instead of geriatric ones actually makes me feel represented and that I could do something similar, too. Obviously not Mayor of the largest city in the US, but I could run for a city council position in the town I live in. And this makes it feel like I could actually succeed.

That's huge to feel in this day.

Nah, they'll just use AI to do that.

Close. It was actually a rabbit.

I'm curious. What red flags do you see between the two? I haven't done any research into the dot Com bubble.

Will nothing be spared from the AI-pocalypse? I made nearly 100 observations for them over the past 2 years.
Guess I get to look somewhere else to help out now.

I realize what this post is saying, but it reminded me of a somewhat similar situation. In my high school we had to learn the stems of words and their meanings (I.E. Acro = high; acr = sharp, etc). Our English teachers would give us a list of 15 stems (25 if you took accelerated/advanced English) at the start of the week and then on Friday they would hand out a quick test for us to conplete.
The idea was you'd look over the list throughout the week and memorize them that way. But instead I would look at the list 5 minutes before the exam, memorize them, take the test, ace it, then forget about them before the class even ended. Worked every time.

I agree. Looking at the stats for the county mentioned, it's only about 1/3 that religion, which is nowhere near enough for that entire district to vote for Trump.

I'll have to read the article, but if I recall correctly there are some rather religious communities in some New York counties. And they vote in a rather peculiar way. They will listen to their religious leaders about who to vote for and then they all unilaterally vote for that candidate.
I'm wondering if that's what's going on.

Hey, now, why is it weird? I consider it respectful as Victor wanted him to be as complete as possible. How could he call his creation complete if it was missing a rather fundamental part of a human? Would you call him complete if he only gave him one arm or one leg? Of course not. So Victor has to look for a penis to give him or else his project is left unfinished.

Exactly. If humans can have an extremely diverse range of kinks and fetishes, just imagine the kinds that advanced civilizations might have.

It was originally on my towel while tanning and I grabbed my phone to take a pic. After the towel pic, it hopped onto my hand right between my middle and ring fingers. The problem was that was my phone hand, so I could feel it moving around, but I couldn't actually see it. I was hoping it would fly away, but it just stayed there. I carefully took my phone with my other hand and it thankfully started walking down my finger. I think it was after my sweat.
