Showed this information to my boomer mother who then asked my also tech illiterate step father what he thought.

"We don't send sensitive information through texts."

The ignorance almost physically hurts.. Thinking that only the actual message content is important.

Or ignoring the pictures we send and the private things I talk about with my mom.

Do I think that specifically my information would be useful to China? Likely not. But I also have no idea what all is possible with that kind of information in the aggregate.

At the very least, I assume they will use it to manipulate us even more with disinformation.

Same with teeth.

Sure, I can live without them but everything becomes harder and worse and there's an awful period where you could probably die from the infections as many people used to.

But those are luxury bones covered by other, separate insurance, as though it is not related to my health.

The Artifice Girl.

Movie from 2023 that seems to have slipped under the radar.

It's about a man who develops an AI to target online predators played out through 3 short 30 minute acts.

I don't know where they found the lead child actress but she blew me away. Movie absolutely floored me with how good it was.

Good for them. I bought this years ago in beta and have no regrets. Amazingly complex rogue like. I hope it gets a bit of recognition

I finally got a cane and I'm finding it really nice to feel so much more stable walking around. I don't need it for a limp or pain, but I get really dizzy from a TBI and it feels like having part of my freedom back

Bodies were literally piling up in the streets outside morgues in major cities...

But yeah, I'm sure the mild inconveniences of wearing a mask and locking down were totally superfluous.

Fuck these ghouls.

They will probably barely care even if it strikes down their own children. They will cry and say it was God's will and overlook that it was preventable

The original 6

The House trilogy

The Butlerian Jihad

Hunters of Dune

Sandworms of Dune

After a first read through, I started just reading them chronologically.

I know there's at least one more trilogy that you can throw after The Butlerian Jihad. I found it more forgettable than the rest of these.

I generally notice the fruity flavors more but that might just be my palette. I'm not sure how well it works with espresso. Never tried that but now I'm curious

Highly recommend a pinch of salt in any good black coffee.

Really opens the flavors in it.

Which is why you don't do it to bad coffee. It will open up the bouquet of garbage haha
