"Sout' America, take it away!"

Well as I understand it, they can be an early indicator to look at other things, but then, you're the clinician and I'm still a student (who has completed all the BIO I'm gonna take, save for kinesthesiology if you want to count that). I'm going into physical therapy. If you need to relearn how to get full use out of…

A favorite author of mine writes sci fi and urban fantasy (he's actually said he's done with sci fi because he's said all he has to say with it) that's always centered around economics and trade. I mean, the protag in one book was an interstellar crypto-accountant cyborg. Anyhoo, he's got a series that I don't care…

Look, as long as it's not fucking decaf crystals.
I just don't get enough power out of them.

Uuuuuuugh.

Yeah! I mean, there's absolutely nothing wrong with unproductive downtime amusement. We don't have to always be striving. That kind of decompression is emotionally important. But defaulting to it is not good. An example from my own life: I primarily play Civ V. Sure, it's a complex game with hundreds of variables and…

Nope, regular axe. Firearms are efficient, but impersonal.

If you like the Pixar movies, go ahead. It's pretty simplified (they don't use all the agreed-upon emotions and bland others for the sake of character and that's fine). We watched it and did a questionnaire on the last day of psych class. The instructor had already fucked off and my A was locked but I showed up…

At one point, it occurred to me that the smart players coded thick enough macros that you could leave your toon alone for hours at a time while it played itself. Those people who play 8+ toons on WoW use a similar tactic. In EVE, there are a couple of aps that allow you to do nearly anything that doesn't involve…

Oh, things will work out one way or the other. I don't really have many other options than to work something out, so in one sense, success is my only option (which is not literally true, but it helps when I remember to think that way). I'm sure that in your situation, you can relate. I've been very, very fortunate to…

So… like every other recurring SNL bit.

590K. Barely over half a million. There are meathead bodybuilder youtube people with more than double that amount of subscribers. Shit, half a mill is the threshold to get endorsed by cut-rate protein powder manufacturers. The fact that he's got half a million followers on twitter when most of us have actually heard…

We do! Did you go to school with any black people? Because that couldn't happen fifty (uh… ish) years ago! Drinking fountains! Theaters! Restrooms! Interracial couples going unremarked upon in most cities in the world! I mean I could probably go bigger if I were writing some kind of term paper, but you get what I…

That assumes I remember the last movie I saw with him in it. Considering it was probably a Sandler flick, I don't.

Yeah, both of the ambitious trolls that pop over from redstate.com or what the fuck ever will know what they're up against now, in the minutes before they're deleted.

Anger is an excellent strength to harness! But you have to harness it, not give into it. The gamut of human emotions are all valuable tools. We put too much value on always being calm and happy and satiated, when some good goddamn anger can really light a fire under your ass. You just can't let it consume you.

"Fuck ya'll. I'm going to Canada."

As a really, really broke-ass honky (seriously… I need healthcare to get through college - it's a requirement to intern) who has made 15K or less the last couple years running and is applying for medicaid so I won't lose any more of my tax returns (seriously… I'll owe for 2017 if I don't) economic justice is actually…

*sigh* Yeah that does seem pretty possible.

I absolutely loathe all iterations of the phrase, as applicable and appropriate to the phenomenon they describe as they are (which is to say, rather).
