The villains are always natural disasters but the Waffle House always wins.

Gen X/Millenial or Oregon trailer or whatever here: Having a hard time not ended every sentence with a FUCK.

FUCK

There weren’t many ways to make anonymous phone calls in the 90s, you had to find 10¢ and go into town to find a pay phone.

I think the what if mentioned neutron star explosions at 25 in the scale.

Syria was a water war.

It started after farming collapsed in the drought and the farmers started the revolt.

There’s still going to be wars over resources like water (and now the oil again, for no apparent reason that isn’t power hungry distraction tactics).

He’s making record run back from the border.

It’s got a suppressor to, so the pilots won’t know he’s dead till they land.

I’d rather have Dr. Pepper or cherry cola for the caffeine.

Sugar and gelatin, which is made from Pig bones and hooves mostly.

So depends on your definition of natural.

I used to write it all the steps I thought I’d need as these types of comments, then go back and write the real methods. But I usually replaced the comments with more detailed jsdocs style comments with as much detail about the parameters as returnvalues as possible.

28.69 (nice) years is a long way. Good gravy.

And a bunch of the food is more or less fossil fuels turned into corn. Solar+wind+battery with some nuclear power mixed in is probably the way, but long haul transport might be able to work on bio if we could get out of the growth only economy of late stage of capitalism.

I sometimes imagine a world where we make things that last, or can be repaired and our population has leveled off so that we can stop making the line go up and just keep it at some sustainable level. A lot of thing could change and keep us all happy.

Maybe my kid’s grandkids will see it.

With more AI presidential addresses like the Kirk speech.

I kinda think the controllers and size justify a slight premium over building as well though. At least in this stage (mid 40s) of my life.

Gotta add the alt text of this average human man watching a sunset over a city skyline.

Showing up with armfuls of bribes each time should help.

Staying anonymous would be the best way though, especially if your goings try it more than once.
