| Funny how some people who are very ableist don't seem to have a problem with people wearing glasses. Even when they're the ones wearing glasses. And sunglasses worn to protect your eyes from UV rays are seen as "cool", even by people living in hopeless denial about climate change or call m... |

| Marvel Comics has a supervillian called Ultron, a self aware, highly intelligent synthezoid whose goal is to destroy the human race to achieve world peace after learning about human history on the internet. Of all the many comic book villains, I find him to be the most relatable. Except the high int... |

| Every time I see the word engineer I think of the ones that drive the choo-choo trains. I'm not even sure what the other kind of engineer actually is or does. I guess I'm too old. Of course the stereotypes are always about male aspies and everyone thinks they're supposed to be like Rain Man and can ... |

| Does Dr. Seuss count as poetry? :lol: When we were younger my brother liked to write poems that made zero sense and annoy me to death by reading them and sadistically enjoying my irritation and confusion. He said real poems never rhyme and always have some really deep meaning that you're not suppose... |

The micro SD card I bought for my new Switch can cause cancer and birth defects.
According to California, anyway.  |

If you play a YouTube video of Speed Racer with the English dub at 0.75, the characters all sound surprisingly normal. At normal speed they all sound like they're on...speed.  |

| It's like a "father figure" except the person is usually female, and takes on the role of a mother to someone who doesn't have a biological mother, usually by being protective, nurturing, caring, giving advice, and such. Could be people like a grandmother, an aunt, a teacher, an older sist... |

| Having a flashy car doesn't make you a Man any more than wearing sequined pink dresses would make me any more of a woman. In fact I'd probably look cringy enough to be on a TikTok video. |

| It depends on the brand and quality of the chocolate, but I like milk chocolate best. Dark chocolate is too bitter and leaves a bitter aftertaste, unless it has a sweet filling to balance it out. |

| When I was a kid there was a PSA with He-Man and She-Ra about "bad touching", and He-Man's list of adults you can trust include parents, a teacher, a priest, a minister, or a rabbi. The funny/sad thing is that these trusted adults are all more likely to have molested a kid than some total ... |
