Toothpaste, then water, then brush, then water.

Very cool Nature, I love it 👍

Are crabs still winning and is there a word like carcinization to describe the mammal -> anteater pipeline?

I never take notes, but I make frequent use of the glossary and search function on e-books to go back and refer to things I might have misunderstood or want to refresh my memory on

I just got to part 3 of Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry, what a ride, loving it so far.

I don’t usually read non-fiction but for a reading bingo card challenge at my local bookstore and I was blown away by Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green, it was fantastic.

I didn’t know it was for plot hole reasons, though I wouldn’t be surprised. I thought it was just because the length was spiraling and he needed to publish the half that was done at the time.

So you can use it as lube?

So you mean A Dance With Dragons? I’d recommend doing the last two books mixed together so you get A Feast For Crows at the same time. Here is a link to one reading order by chapter: https://boiledleather.tumblr.com/post/25902554148/a-new-readerfriendly-combined-reading-order-for-a

You could watch it if you stop before the end, maybe through season 6, definitely before 8.

I vote Joe Abercrombie, their style is more similar imo and given direction from GRRM’s notes I think he could finish it much better than the show did.

The PS3 was stupid expensive at launch, like $600 in 2006, nearly $1000 in 2026 dollars. But yeah I think that argument was made then also.

I think the PS2 was marketed specifically for DVD capabilities in some cases, I remember an IR dongle and remote control they sold so you didn’t have to use a controller.

I think the PS2 being so well sold is more impressive because the price adjusted for inflation is closer to $560, or $299 in the year 2000.

I think part of it was the idea that it could also be a DVD player so you wouldn’t need two devices that helped sell it if I recall correctly.

I second trying Mort first, Color of Magic was good but I loved Mort.
