Landing pages, too. Often with a corny Shockwave animation.

Also, good guy St. Pauli. They are also currently transforming into a co-op which is unique in German soccer. TRAILBLAZERS!

My first thought was spies... because they are already on someone else's payroll.
Also, bootlickers and extremely desperate people that would take on any job.

~~Ok, boomer~~ Agreed, dark ager.

Hmm. Interesting, indeed. Now please excuse me while I, once again, sacrifice my own bodily fluids on the modern-age altar of fertility which has been optimized over ages and ages into the convenient shape of a... sock.

DAE remember that movie White Noise? The climax was fucking horrifying and I have to admit that it haunted me for quite a while.
For better or worse, kids today probably won't get it.

I'm very sorry for you.
FWIW, I had the totally opposite experience. Went to the nearest GP with no appointment, rattled down a long list of physical symptoms, then a long list of things that currently distress me. You could almost hear it click when they connected the dots. Got the good stuff immediately and it changed everything. Maybe it's something to do with socialized medicine (I live in Europe), IDK.

So, everything north of the Alps, basically? That doesn't sound right to me. I tried a vitamin D pill once but it gave me a rash immediately, which is a sign of overdosing.

That reminds me of three cities I used to frequent. You could predict their economic and political situation based on the way desire paths were being handled.

  • Place 1: poor, left-wing. Nothing, the desire paths were left alone.
  • Place 2: rich, left-wing. Desire paths were nicely paved over.
  • Place 3: rich, right-wing. They placed big branches on a desire path to block it. After people started climbing over them, they fell a tree on it.

A saying where I'm from goes something like: "To get old, eat soup for 100 years."

Wait until you find out about "Stray Cat Blues."

 

LibriVox is otherwise pretty normal, but this has me puzzled. The CD (!) case insert says: "Read by Justin Barrett, braindouche, Cow Nose the 50 Pound Cat, Sibella Denton, Esther, and Andrew Lebrun. Total running time: 00:54:13." Seems insane to me. Why put the whole reading on a CD? Why 5000 digits? Why are there no chapters? What if they made a mistake? Did they double-check the result? Who needs any of that anyway?

During the pandemic, this was, in fact, my main computer's desktop. Bonus: SimpleFind screenshot. Isn't it the greatest finder program of all time?
