What are we but a collection of memories? Not much. A body, some desires, occasional suffering and joy.

The memories give context to everything else. Change them, and you change everything.

This is why my chronic illness is so terrifying. It's in my brain. Literal brain damage. It's being treated, but I wake up every day with a low lying terror that I have forgotten something important.

"We can hurt the bad people until they tell us what we need to know to be safe."

It's nonsense, but it can feel true.

That's called a taint squeeze.

They are just declaring their neighbors illegitimate and marching in like Putin.

I can say that unqualified judges generally cause the corruption more than the qualified ones.

Hijacking a plane wouldn't be enough. Plane highjackings were nothing new. They were even common back in the 60's. Conventional wisdom was you cooperate with the highjackers. They have to land eventually.

Nobody anticipated suicide highjackers.

Oil companies objectifying lesbians to pinkwash the tar sands.

Lesbians are great, this add is gross.

Steam never showed me this game. It said I have never played a game like it.

I've played arpgs, tactical RPGs, and crpgs,

What more do you need steam?

Pixel RPGs? Western RPGs?

I guess steam thinks the target audience is people that played Red Dead Redemption on steam.

Technically, the carbon came from the air and returns to the air, but taking the pellets from where the tree died and turning them into pellets and transporting them to the furnace costs energy too.

Also all the tree carbon that doesn't make it into the pellets goes into the air. So the cost is greater than the gain.

If we grew trees and then buried them it could be a form of carbon capture. But we need to get the energy to do that from somewhere.

Yeah, the naval base is the big thing.

For Ukraine, it's about the principle of the matter. Taking Crimea back would mean "we are a real country and you can't push us around."
