I dunno how required it is, but I still make sure to do it.

Also I love it when I check in on my computer and it tells me I’ve successfully checked in, but then at the airport when I try to pull up my boarding pass on the app it acts like I haven’t checked in and makes me do it again.

“AAAAHHH! FUCK!”

I forget how old I was, but at some point as a kid I had this really big marble, and as dumb kids sometimes do, I kept sticking it in my mouth for no reason. Eventually I accidentally half-swallowed it and it was big enough to completely block my throat. I couldn’t breathe or make a sound, and I don’t think anyone else was even home at the time anyway. I legit thought I was gonna die, as much as I could process that as a kid, but I somehow managed to cough the marble up after a few seconds. I distinctly remember thinking to myself “okay don’t do that again,” and then absently sticking the marble back in mouth a minute later anyway.

Was watching youtube video called idiots of garry’s mod. Gman silently sit on bench and camera zoom in. Gman suddenly shout “pickle surprise!” and flail around. Young pickelsurprise think was funny. Spell pickle wrong on purpose because stupid. No change username for like 16 years.

Later find out meme is from other older weird video, but saw here first.

Yeah no we’re not turning this real-ass goddamn murder hobo into a meme format.

Is that whatserface from Reincarnated as a Bookworm?

Complication from Durarara

Pleasure from Fruits Basket The Final

U from Belle and really the entire score

Ninelie from Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress

Underground River from Made in Abyss

Dive in the Sky from Planetes

Hopefully at least one of those will be along the lines of what you’re looking for lol.

Yeah. I don’t necessarily even want to retire right now, it’s more that hanging axe feeling that I’m never going to be able to, between decreasing purchasing power and increasing age requirements for retirement benefits. Makes it hard to get motivated to work knowing I’m going to have to keep doing it until I’m in my grave.

You don’t pay my sub. (My girlfriend does.)

I briefly saw something on the news to the effect of “concern for Mitch McConnell after xyz incident.”

I didn’t see the whole thing or what actually happened, but I did become very concerned that he’d survive.

He can be your angle or yuor devil

I don’t buy the idea that disintegrating my molecules and reconstructing new ones is tantamount to murder or suicide.

I definitely don’t think teleportation in science fiction is meant to be killing the person using it and making a clone of them. Like unless a story is specifically about that, I don’t think any given sci-fi author is trying to set up some sinister background plot where everyone is unknowingly killing themselves all the time.

But I do still have to wonder if that’s how it would end up working out in real life. Sure all our cells have died and been replaced since we were born, but that typically doesn’t happen with all your cells at the same time lol. imo it’s probably less about cells and more about like… Consciousness or “the soul” or whatever, I don’t know. Whatever it is, I accept that teleporters in fiction have some way to store and transport it, whether it’s stated in the narrative or not. But in real life I have no idea how we’d be able to tell if such a thing could even work.
