Agreed. Real person fanfic is gross on Tumblr and ao3, and it’s just as gross in this.

Man, keep that shit on AO3. 

Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
From a worn-out picture that my mother’d had
And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye
He was big and bent and gray and old
And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
And I said: “My name is ‘Sue X Æ A-12!’ How do you do!?

Timer, a cheap fishtank grow light, and pint glasses in an Ikea (wall mounted) wine holder. Biggest problem is an occasional fruit fly.

I hope they all get infected. It would be good to spread a rumor that hospitals are putting tracking microchips into patriots such as themselves, so that when they’re sick they can just die at home and not waste valuable healthcare resources or infect hospital workers.

Pushing Daisies was so damn good. God, what I wouldn’t give for that show right now. And as controversial as the Quantum Leap ending was, I still have a special place in my heart for it. I like to imagine that Sam’s destiny just became bigger than the life he would have gone back to.  He’s like the Silver Surfer of…

Yeah, it’s misleading to frame it, as the article seems to start out by doing, as being related to “perfectionism”. If your workers are regularly working through the night, it’s not because you’re asking them to do too much - it’s because you haven’t given them enough normal working hours to get it done in. You can…

I am astounded by how many people have these boogeyman “facts” about unions that are complete bullshit.

There’s an additional problem here. There are very few GOOD producers. I’ve worked with only two in my 15 year career. The rest have been AWFUL.

I’ve been through crunches like this (you can work over 100 hours a week, it turns out!). And seriously, we do crunch because we love the game and we want to make it better.
 But sometimes we crunch way more because of bad decisions, and what’s weird is that the worst crunches are always at the companies with the…

I feel like the argument against producers is always “but bureaucracy!” And that’s fair up to a point. You get too many producers and layer on too many processes and it can slow things down—there’s really no perfect solution. It’s kind of a spectrum where you have Naughty Dog on one end, and something like working in…

I don’t understand why they wouldn’t just delay it a couple months or until the next quarter. Most consumers have started to come around to the idea that more cook time = better product, so why not let it just cook longer? And not kill (almost) your employees to meet an already arbitrary release window?

Fucks sake, HIRE A PRODUCTION TEAM.

I know it sounds like beating a dead horse to say UNIONS UNIONS UNIONS but the horse won’t actually die until the unions actually form.

Um, Tom Hanks wasn’t really in space.

When we built our home 15 years ago we were definitely seen as outliers when we installed real sheet linoleum in our laundry room. We had very few colors to chose from, but are very happy with our choice to go real. While it does have a few superficial scars (moving a full size freezer) it is holding up beautifully.…

I wonder how linoleum fits in as a bio plastic? The vast majority of what people call linoleum is in fact made of PVC and is referred to in the industry as sheet vinyl. But a few companies produce it the old fashioned way, by soaking a jute twine backing in linseed oil and allowing it to oxidize and become solid,…

Wonder how they handle multi generational payments/contracts, is the company liable if the power goes out, the building burns down, the company goes out of business etc.

Chances of me dying if I get COVID-19: < 2%

Why would you cryofreeze a dog? Like, honestly, what’s the dog going to do in 50, 100, 200, 1000 years when they fix congenital heart diseases in dogs and they revive the dog. You’ve still got a 14 year old dog, which is pretty old for a dog, that’s now time-displaced by years, if not decades or more. Like, the dog…
