I sort of did this. I finished reading this big book from DK about the history of political philosophy just in time before early voting a couple weeks ago. It was a little personal goal of mine this year.

With live chat? That's why I like to watch them on Twitch.

It's where I go to watch speedruns of Super Metroid and reruns of MST3K.

I'm really annoyed how little consistency there is in sizing terminology. One brand's 'XL' might be too tight for me while another brand's 'XL' could fit me like a garbage bag. Makes shopping online a real hassle for me. I always have to check measurement tables and even then it still might not fit right.

I don't understand why the inconsistency exists. If brands all agreed with each other on what exactly their sizing terms mean, wouldn't that cut down on returns?

Initially I read this to the "diarrhea" song.

Yeah. Let's not russian to any conclusions.

I may have experienced this. A couple years ago I was getting over a cold. I blew my nose and instantly experienced severe vertigo. The room looked like it was spinning and it felt like I was on a boat in the middle of a rough storm. I nearly fell over. It took about 15 minutes for the sensation to fully expire.

NYT: "Did Trump say immigrants have 'bad genes'? MOSTLY FALSE. Trump was actually critiquing immigrants' choice in denim jeans."

Once my family and some friends went out to a Mexican restaurant in Houston. The next day one of my relatives couldn't find her expensive digital camera (this was in 2006 when average people still used digital cameras before smartphones). She claimed we were taking pictures with it at the restaurant. That wasn't true at all; we took no pictures. Everyone at the table but her didn't remember taking any pictures.

Soon after she calls the restaurant and starts yelling at the manager claiming that one of his employees stole the camera. She threatens to call the police and "border agents" because she assumes they're all "illegal" immigrants.

The next day we find her camera in its bag hanging on a chair in our apartment where she left it before we ever went to the restaurant. It was hidden under a her jacket. No apologies to the restaurant. 🙄
