Rice cooker, after it’s halfway, throw in an egg or two, leftover meat, can of beans, soup, or chili, whatever’s available. It’s nourishing and always tastes good.

I mean, have you met them‽

Leave the Midwest. Coasts and Southwest, we eat spicy foods, tho also most of them are very hot.

It’s OK, just tell Abe you’re there to kill vampires and he’ll let you into his secret society.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.

Well now I just want to watch young people try to beat the unbeatable games of my yout’.

Prince of Persia, Mega Man X, Ghosts & Goblins, Ecco the Dolphin (my favorite, but I screamed so much at Ecco dying one pixel away from air). Zork without a walkthru. Solve all the puzzles yourself or by talking to friends also playing it blind.

And you paid $60 ($200 in today’s bullshit money) for this, you can’t get another for 3 months.

Change is bad. We fear change.

Actual soap, Lever 2000 boring odor, a bar lasts quite a while even with hard scrubbing. Shower gel is weird and wasteful, you have water right there in the shower.

I have some deodorant thing but it’s unscented, just for the antiperspirant.

There’s a movie with a sure-fire method, Stephen King’s Cat’s Eye. Just find someone willing to “help you” like Quitters Inc.

I still use my iPod classic for jogging, and I have an iPod touch as backup. My watch can do emergency calls so I don’t need or want a phone with me.

The low-gravity planets/moons we have access to have rather harsh radiation environments, too, so neither. Dig into the ground. You would put a bunker or dome up on the surface for observations and airlocks, but it’d be foolish to live that exposed on a surface without a deep well of atmosphere & Van Allen belts.

Ignore it or mock it. I start preaching about Great Cthulhu at people who have loonie beliefs, and let them try to debunk me.

I’ve got good at reciting “Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!” in a high-pitched preacher voice.

Way back on my radio show, that was my “I’m in the can or searching stacks for music” song.

I’ve never had that happen, within the same type. I had some loose-fit Levis 568 which were very different, but the 501s never change. Just switched from 40w to 38w, got exactly the size change I expected.

Levis. Cheap pants are never worth it, the 501 is always in style and perfect.

1. Pythonista. Great Python editor, REPL, and platform-specific libraries.
2. Editorial. Same author, Markdown editor which can be scripted in Python. I routinely write al new features for it, like dice rollers, list renumbering, etc.
3. Documents by Readdle. PDF & epub reading, file management, bunch of optional features.
4. iCabMobile. Browser with a ton of ad-blocking, filters, good file management, I routinely use it as a private browser.

Space Battleship Yamato, original model

Serenity. Just the nicest “home” you can keep flying.

Penny Royal, from Neal Asher’s Technician and Dark Intelligence.

Would you prefer they eat live animals?

“The War to End All Wars” was a good season finale, but then just 20 years later they made a sequel with bigger effects budget and openly evil villains. Lazy writing. And the way things have been written towards WWIII but then backing off is a long season tease.

They also bike to work.
