Hmmm...usually, my thought process before going to the doctor goes: will this heal or clear up on its own? If not, how likely is it to be fatal or seriously impair my quality of life? The virus didn’t change a whole lot for me.

Since you’ve already read Rocannon’s World, you should definitely grab Planet of Exile for reading before City of Illusions. As I mentioned, you don’t absolutely need to read the others to enjoy the book, but they do make a rough trilogy. You’ll appreciate how she set things up, and Worlds of Exile and Illusions is a…

Le Guin has proven difficult to adapt to the screen for reasons of both content that requires some thought and incompetence among those trying to do so, but I’ve believed for decades that the one book in her catalog that’s ready made for a script is City of Illusions. It’s got everything you need for a very good film…

What they’ll be receiving training for is also unclear, though if it’s a future in the oil business, that ain’t it.

Anyone that dismisses Jack Vance or Stanislaw Lem (or James Blish, Delaney, and others) as being too old or outdated is just plain cheating themselves out of some very awesome writing. If anyone hasn’t dipped their toes into these, there’s a whole world of great work waiting for you.

I mean, the biggest flaw of Covenant is that it writes out Rapace’s character, a woman so badass she performed her own C-section in the last movie.

I appreciate your self-awareness, but I hope you stay and ask you to examine what the changing times are indicating about what we may have been taking for granted this whole time. We all struggle and have our heads down in our own lives, it’s good to be pointed at things that may never intersect with your normal life,…

If we must go with the idea that the eggs are the cargo of a warship, I think the better questions are who was on the other side and what were they packing.

Not to mention that it’s probably quite hard for an amateur to sell 75 lbs of coke without ending up dead or in jail.

So the car’s a Crack Pipe however much it sold for, amirite?

I bought 3 new manual vehicles in the last 12 years for the grand total of 89K actual money paid. I am doing my part.

... and it’s how I raise money every year for the Alzheimers Association. I have found myself in a quandary of late - I truly despise the cesspool of misinformation and hatred that is so quickly and easily decimated on FB, and the knowledge that FB does not have to do a damn thing about, because they are “too big to…

I had a ‘16 M235i (bought in ‘15, Euro Delivery, it was literally built the first day of production of ‘16s) and the only reason I went for the six was that I couldn’t get a properly equipped 228i without a sunroof. M235i’s had a “sunroof delete” option - also no charge (gee thanks). BMW are a clever bunch, they got…

I’m not suggesting replacing the police with a group of unpaid, untrained volunteers who do 3 hours of work a week. I am suggesting taking the money we spend on the police and using that for community organizations staffed with paid professionals, who specialize in mental health, trauma, and other issues. 

In relation to the recent light yet again shined on the issues that exist in some police departments and with some officers that are disgustingly heavily protected by unions, I can sympathize with this sentiment. However since when we boil this down police brutality/abuse (like most criminal activity) is tied to…

3) Get lots of calls and sell within a week or 2, 99% of which will be from tire-kicking idiots who seem to spend their entire day wasting time on auto classified sites.

Can’t wait for the “Making it a street legal vehicle” video.
