The letter doesn’t frame this as a physical issue - “I like it this way because I don’t lose my sex drive and I can continue” sounds like a guy who could orgasm but is deliberately not doing so. If he *was* trying to achieve orgasm and could not, he should say so. If your theoretical female LW was actively choosing…

Depends on the bear. And the pope.

Given that Pratchett didn’t allow his only pre-Discworld published book (The Carpet People) to be republished until he’d re-written it decades later, this feels *really* contrary to his wishes.

They have different goals. A bodybuilder is trying to get a specific hyper muscular look; a weightlifter is trying to lift the heaviest weights possible. Successful weightlifters are huge but don’t necessarily have very defined muscles; successful bodybuilders look like some variation on this guy but aren’t…

I’m the furthest thing from a gym rat...but I’m annoyed at the terms weightlifter and bodybuilder used interchangeably.  They’re different things.

Madden was a popular commentator for people new to gridiron football...but I have to imagine that within a season of watching, you’d realize you’re way ahead of his “this is a guy who, when he puts on his glasses, he sees better”-level insights.

I think Pulp Fiction was approximately three comebacks ago for Travolta.

As did Russian Doll...well, that had two people entering the loop at the same time and finding each other.

“One hand is all you need to count the times I’ve ordered out since early March...”

Do many Kotaku writers mention how rarely they play video games? Or (zombie) Deadspin writers say how little they watch sports?

Trust me, things like “votes” don’t sway this crowd.

In other words, it was an Asimov story.

“...I fried it up on the stove in a little bit of vegetable oil.”

Yeah, I’ve always been perplexed by the “Spam is cheap” line because, anywhere that has ready access to lots of pork, it really isn’t.

I wouldn’t underestimate how much eating it raw contributed too.

I hope to God you’re describing West Towne in Madison, WI, because otherwise there’s been some frightening parallel evolution.

“Rain Man has the confidence to stay small, to focus.”

Only one of these cards has seen a printing in the past decade, none of them are significant in competitive or casual play. Good move getting rid of them, but given their general insignificance I think the only effect will be to slightly increase their collector value.

ETA: holy shit, that’s a hell of a twofer for…

Hmm. Matt Kenseth’s racing again, and he’s from Wisconsin...hey Matt, how about slapping an Iron Brigade decal on your car, and just saying “heritage” to everyone who asks about it?

I was just going to say “good for Bubba, whatever for NASCAR”, but they at least featured his BLM car. Not much, but still better than the NFL.
