It’s a very funny joke. A white flag was literally their flag. It caused some issues when they tried to surrender and kept getting shot. So, they had to up their design game.

You would think a hijab is more sanitary than hair in a food service place.

Here I am in the minority with strong chicory with heavy cream. All the bad breath; none of the drugs.

They call it the war of northern aggression. There “ain’t nothing civil about it”.

Hay, I see what you did there.

Thank you! I learned something today.

Hey thanks for introducing me to Midinous! That looks awesome. Yes, the sounds from VCV can border on industrial vibration at best.

And I’ve had the same fleeting dream of buying hardware, but who knows, indeed.

Chat GPT seems to think it’s:

Modern thought refers to the intellectual and philosophical ideas that have emerged since the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods, continuing into the present day. It encompasses various fields, including science, philosophy, politics, and culture. Generally, modern thought values reason, individualism, empirical inquiry, and skepticism towards traditional authority. It has led to advancements in areas such as democracy, human rights, scientific method, and technological progress.

What do you think it is?

Ah yes, Newsweek. The bastion of modern thought. /s

 

It’s interesting to see the hoops people will go through for their main drug of choice.

 

I was a long time contributor at r/decaf and it supported those who were suffering through their dark night of the soul. And caffeine withdrawal. Although that is debatable, apparently.

I’ve seen zealots demand uncaffination, Brits that can’t give up their cuppa, and many, many people suffering from nervous system toxicity from a lack of balance in their lives.

The low-caf life has been great. I have some occasional chocolate (does that make me a heretic?). Hot chocolate on a cold night is especially nice.

But I did my sober time, I turned it around from a daily driver to a rarely nice to have. Being very much addicted to coffee first thing in the morning and use all day long left me haggard. My sleep suffered, my social skills were blunted, and my life has improved with the wise moderation of a very strong drug.

So that’s my intro. What do you want from this community? Venting? Check. Confirmation? Yes. Debate? Debatable.

Let’s have fun without the anxiety and let the good times roll.
