Un Dorian Gray sin pasado, ni patria ni bandera.

I'm just a guy in the #pnw who likes going on adventures, and playing games with friends.

Three things I love: the Oxford Comma, irony, and missed opportunities.

  • Well, this thread has strengthened my desire to adopt a teen from foster care. I technically have/had a family but they were more like roommates than parents. Left at 18 and never looked back. Had my share of lonely holidays that I would dread when they came around. I'm not trying to say I've had the same story as those here, but I get some parts of it really well. I'm finally at a place where maybe I can prevent that from happening to someone else.

  • This is the first I'm hearing of this author, but seems like it: wiki

  • I vaguely remember it being put on hold for some alignment with European privacy laws or something along those lines.

  • English is a descriptive language instead of prescriptive, so make it happen!

  • You're not alone. I tried reading them and the premise was something I could get behind but the way it was written drove me crazy. I agree that if they had a better translator to make it sound more native English, I probably would have been fine with it. Bit as it stands it sounded very Chinese still. I'm hoping the show will solve that problem for us.

  • Yeah, given my druthers I'd rather summer time, but that seems unlikely happen any time soon. So honestly, I'll be happy if we no longer have to change clocks twice a year regardless of which we align with.

  • Oregon Senate just passed that bill. Here's hoping.

  • That was my thought when they said X identified as conservative, Y liberal, the rest moderate or unsure.

    How about none of the above since they're all right of center?

  • Because our whole government operates as if this still the 1800s and the only thing holding us together is the Pony Express.

  • That's a privilege reserved only for Rene Magritte.

  • If you want to dip your toes, go with something easy. Popos or Linux Mint are the two most often suggested. Lesser offered but with a Mac OS feel is Elementary.

  • I think your answer also explains why they're so angry about white people no longer being the majority. They're scared they'll be treated how they've been treating everyone else.

  • Why hasn't anyone brought back an e-ink watch? Best watch ever.

  • Oh man, I clicked that link really hoping you were going to link to a Dyson Sphere.

  • That's why I loved StumbleUpon when it first came out. I discovered so many cool niche things that way.
