Quote from Madison: I purposefully cut my leg open so badly I would have to go to the ER to get it stapled back together. It was genuinely the only way in my mind to take a day off without being harassed for a reason why.

I think I would leave a crappy job way earlier than even considering commiting self harm.

I installed EOS and I'm liking it.

When I went thru immigration, I made small talk about what my college's Football team was up to that year. I HATED football. But my roomie was a fan and he always gave me a tl;dr I could recite in under a minute.

Holy hell I was always the fastest Asian guy thru foreign immigration at LAX.

Groove Adventure Rave was never completely adapted but the manga kinda ended a little rushed and forced. heroes died, but appeared alive in the epilogue due to forces they themselves could not explain.

I never got into fairy tail, but I think Oracion Six was also the name of the bad guys in Rave.

Pretty soon the word SLAM is mean "to gently prod in a meek and inconsequential manner"

Me and my roommate in college come from Southeast Asia. I'm of Chinese descent with lighter skin and he is darker skinned, more indicative of Southeast Asian natives ie Indonesia, Thailand, Phillipines.

We went to college in Texas. While he was out with a bunch of our fellow countrymen, they got stopped because the cops thought they were "behaving suspicious" while driving. But quite obviously it's because they looked Mexican. While waiting for one cop to search the vehicle, my friend put his hands in his pockets, and the cops immediately had their hands on their pistol holsters. HANDS WHERE WE CAN SEE THEM.

This was before 9/11. We both moved back home and found work here. Being a damn good engineer, he was given a contract job in Texas for a couple years, in the 2010s. He was asked by his bosses if he wanted to stay on for good, but he turned it down. Without elaborating, he told me, THINGS HAD GOTTEN WORSE.

As for me? Nothing much, just was called a COMMIE and asked where my little red book was. I think now they would shoot me.

Linux Mint hides and automates a little too much for my liking. Arch should be within my skill lvl but most days I don't want to be tuning the suspension while the vehicle is moving. Endeavour seem the right cup of tea for someone who has grown up using DOS and terminals and still retains the ability to touch type at 50wpm.

For a desktop PC I'm trying Endeavour OS. Feels quite good.

There is an air gap. You're safe.

But if water splashes up then it's GAME OVER MAN.

As I get older, I start to view eating competitions less as fun and awesome and more like illness.

You say that and it's funny, but it's also sad and true.
