Reply to comment by Crystal1501 in [WP] In hell, people can choose what happens to them. They can choose literally ANYTHING. Naturally, many people try to exploit this by going for luxuries and pampering, but the devil ALWAYS has ways to torture those fools... by Crystal1501
Aye, warm beer is nasty.

Your alien is adorable. This is kind of how I tend to imagine aliens as they get to know us. Everything makes sense until something suddenly doesn't and they get all discombobulated. This story could go places, it really could.

Man, what was the deal with 1969? The number of people who gave birth much less than 9 months after the wedding was astonishing. :)

The title gave me a start, no kidding. For half a second I had to wonder if my niece or nephew was positing an old family pic. See, my parents were married in December 1969, and Mom wore a dress similar to that. Mom has dark hair and was 7 months pregnant, though.

Yep. Great for people with low blood pressure, in moderation. If you've already got high blood pressure, stay away from that nasty stuff.

Reply to comment by FFS_SF in The phenomenology of dementia | As memory slips away, it can take with it language, knowledge and even selfhood. But something beautiful can still remain – the ability to live in a simplified present. by IAI_Admin
Agreed. When you have to watch people you love slowly disappear into the permanent fog of memory loss, you find yourself with a sudden urge to punch the author of this article, because they clearly have the empathy of a brick and no knowledge of the thing they're trying to describe. Watching my FIL forget who his only son was is one of the most heartbreaking occurrences of my entire 52 years. There was no joy, no beauty, just pain and anger and fear. And I'm gonna stop now because the more I dwell on this the more I want to track down that author and beat the stupid out of them.

Reply to comment by NextEstablishment856 in [WP] You are a budget mage. While most of your colleagues use costly ingredients, rituals that take weeks to prepare and use a new spell for every problem, you only know a few spells, use common household ingredients and prepare rituals within minutes. They unjustly deride your work as shoddy. by Kitty_Fuchs
I nearly inhaled my coffee at 'commemorative teaspoons'. OMG, dude, I really hope you can expand on this. This could go places, the way you've started it. And I shamelessly admit that I would read the shit out of a whole book or six if you did.
