I give my thanks to those who reached out to congratulate me on this fiction, I am grateful for your kind words, but I regret to inform you that I did not write this - I think it’s a different Robert Denton. :)
The Corvit’s grin was otherworldly. “I can teach you to channel fire into the vestiges of the storm as it leaves the body... here, in the belly of this sleeping mountain lies enough power to grant your heart's desire. You only need learn to wake it.” 🌩️

I actually don't think there's anything wrong with taking GLP-1s to lose weight.
I do think it's *interesting* how so many body-positive influencers, who previously said looks didn't matter & different sizes should be celebrated, started taking GLP-1s the very second they could.
The point of the Red vs Blue Button thought experiment is to demonstrate: 1) game theory is largely incompatible with ethics; 2) the value of voluntary standards.
Of course Internet folks would rather miss that and divide each other into factions they can demonize for engagement.
@tesla_hillbilly It's a satirical account trying to prove that it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views because folks can't clock them as fake and don't double-check if they are real.
Dunno how reassuring that is, but now you're in-the-know.

it is friday, march 13, 2020. global markets are in freefall. President Trump declares a national emergency over the covid pandemic.
it is friday, march 13, 2026.
not to constantly relitiage this but the difference between a republican administration and a democratic administration this time around meant 800,000 people needlessly died from foreign aid cuts
I mean, I think it's pointless, because I don't buy my pans to look fancy, use them to cook my food. And frankly, my house has too many mirrors already.
But I do plenty of other pointless stuff that doesn't hurt anything, so who am I to toss eggs? Just don't forget to season it.
My culinary teachers & grandparents would have considered this heresy.
But this is how pre-1950s cast iron pans were sold. It does not affect heat distribution and it can still be seasoned. This pan works just fine.
I personally wouldn't do it, but hey, some folks need a project.
There's a fucked up group of men online who have mirror polished their cast iron skillets and they're cooking eggs and other things on it and they're just BREAKING ALL THE FUCKING RULES
Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time
@BigRoboLad It takes a certain type of molten hatred for milquetoast midwesterners to reproduce these details in such subtle mockery. It's very good.

If you're 25+ years old and grew up in Kentucky, your state was ranked 45 out of 50 in education level while you were in school, and U.S. civics was not a mandated course. Just in case you were wondering why grown adults living in KY think they have a say in the NYC election.
We’re getting calls about polls being closed. They are closed because we do not have elections today. Kentucky votes next year. You cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry.
