I agree. The same thing with the words idiot and moron. I find the whole evolution and usage of words to be fascinating.

I really do think about this from time to time as to why we ever even used this word. I grew up the same as you where we all said it and used it as a replacement word for “ass” in situations where cussing wasn’t allowed but you needed a word that hit a bit harder than calling someone stupid. I can’t ever remember a time anyone I knew using it as a slur because someone would beat your ass if you got caught bullying anyone disabled. Now that I know that it is offensive I don’t use it. But for me it’s a bit weird fully relating to the current perception of the word in today’s society because I still have mostly positive memories of goofing off with friends associated with it.
Okay I don’t really like Cradle of Filth but my husband does. But I really really like their cover of Iron Maiden’s “Hallowed Be Thy Name.” Somehow the cover has more energy than the original.
Can confirm I am a Linux lurker who would love to learn all this cool shit but right now I don’t have the time/mental fortitude to wade through all the bullshit and experiment. I already do that enough with power platform at work and I know that I know nothing. It’s exhilarating and tiresome. It would be great if we could have some “training wheels” type of community on here to help new users out.
That is a really cool website!
Reminds me of cabbage patch dolls with the signature on the booty.
Canned chicken over rice is my favorite poor food. Usually I mix the chicken with mayo and spread it over rice cakes. One can to 3 rice cakes is a full meal.
Old Bay in home made hamburger mix. Only do it if you’re using an 80/20 mix because the flavor stands out too much if you use lean hamburger.

If you can find a copy I would suggest the first Sly Cooper game.
I can’t praise chewy.com enough. I have a dog, a cat, and parrots and I save so much money not going to PetSmart or PetCo.
They want something to feel special about. Conservatives love getting away with stuff that is “wrong” and since society has normalized a lot of previously “wrong” behaviors these people no longer have anything to feel special about. Subjugating others is how they get off.
I think they don’t care if AI does a good job. I think that they will provide the AI capabilities to their lowest clients and keep the human sales team for the clients who are willing to spend more money. When you can no longer increase your sales base you start focusing on the ones you can milk for more.
Minecraft. I love building crazy things in creative mode or on peaceful but I will never play with monsters on or even attempt to fight the Nether dragon.
I kind of like all the unsolicited junk mail. I use it weekly to line the bottom of all my parrot cages.
I come from a family like this and my husband’s family did the same. Coincidentally my husband and I also share the same first letter. Our family gatherings can get confusing so most of us have family nicknames.
I just finished Talos Principle 2 and what a ride! I love Turing Test too and would also suggest Spectrum Retreat to scratch that puzzling itch.
I know it’s older but recently I’ve been listening to Ologies by Allie Ward. She explores all the different types of science, she’s funny, and she finds people who are really passionate about their field of work.
This is how I use control with lucid dreaming. If something is taking a wrong turn I just say “No” and either remove the bad part or rewind on something that doesn’t make sense. I don’t really want to actively control the dream because I want to know what my subconscious is trying to tell me.
I previously had an LG Stylo and now I have a Motorola G stylus. I love both of them. The stylus is kind of thin but it’s stored in the phone. I use the notepad pretty frequently so having a phone with a stylus is a must have for me.
