I feel like this website would be so much better if we all got together and made 300 servings of plov

The Nobel Peace Prize becoming so prestigious that wars are fought over a head of state coveting it is some real monkey paw stuff for Alfred Nobel.

My biggest red flag is I think about buying a Jensen-Healey, Fiat Cinquecento, and/or Porsche 928 more than I should.

That… that can’t be the END of Act III. I mean, satisfying in its own way after 16 years of looking forward to it, and a damn good listen, but that didn’t wrap up the threads if it’s meant as finale.

Well, they’re performing it live tonight, so maybe we’ll have a fun surprise. #theprotomen

Repaired a final-gen ipod touch today, and it was a perfect example of why I don’t like modern Apple products: it required soldering to remove and install a new battery. when compared to a classic ipod, which was just a connector, the modern electronics truly aren’t built to be serviceable.

when some people choose between a weekly injection or daily pill to regulate their hormones so as to align their body with their desired appearance i guess it's no big deal

Of all of the indignities of modern air travel, at least we don’t have 20 people making the most mundane phone calls whilst we’re all stuck in a metal tube 10 km up.

This is why my licence plate is "VW ish". If a so-called enthusiast gets upset about it, then I've weeded them out of my life. These dudes take themselves and their incredibly subjective opinions way too seriously.

Ah, yes, just what adaptations of H.G. Wells's novel really needed: Zoom calls and stock footage from DVIDS.

Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung palaces are amazing, as is the Jongmyo Shrine. Walking around the hanok villages is also fun (Ikseon-Dong was a cute shopping area in old neighbourhood). There's also the Insa-Dong and Namdaemun districts (I spent pretty much all my time in Jongno-gu).
