The diesel punk aesthetic to me is very militaristic and too focused on WW2 and some of it is borderline Nazi.

How about World War 1 happens but much earlier? World War 1 in our time period comes after the beginning of the future movement, Art Nouveau,Belle Epoque etc where style was slowly changing to be more industrial and futuristic looking.

I’ve seen steampunk described as Vintage Industrial which I feel is better.

It’s an alternate reality, they can pretend history marched in a different direction. Independence came much earlier for the colonies. China and Japan rose. Suffragettes gained the vote earlier (how does steampunk often explain the role of women?) Maybe the trigger for independence was the Reconstruction period in the…

I don’t care. I welcome the machine domination. Human beings suck.

I don’t care what you cynical people say. That’s an adorable baby.

You’re next door. I’m in Europe.

I don’t know what the hell Nerds are and I know quite a bit of Americana. Don’t forget that it’s for the world. Everyone knows nougat.

I’m talking about the times when I’m having an intense flareup of depression. I do practice depression hygiene. Why are you assuming I don’t? And that the depression flareups are just the ones I should push through rather than self care for that day?

Ha ha :-D I meant the International Space Station, there’s only one.

See, I hate this. If I had IBS, no one will try to jolly me out of it. So I have diarrhea, force yourself to go out.

I have depression, Aspergers, ADHD, anxiety and recently developed chronic fatigue and some others, Woohoo! There’ve been times when I’ve actually made an effort, dressed up, went to the door and couldn’t set foot out the door. I didn’t know I was actually unable to leave till I tried to leave. What rarely happens is…

I’m very happy for you. I’m in my late thirties now and as single as the ISS. I’m slowly giving up especially as I’ve Asperger and find getting into relationships difficult.

Worry about yourself. Your company won’t care about you, take care of you.

You had your first child at 41?

I remember that! They also said the law firm doesn’t like to broadcast any connection to Cruz even though they are conservative.

I can see a use for peeled oranges while I'm out and about.
