I’ve done many things involving my partners butt and, categorically, a relatively small portion of them have been overtly sexual.
- Comment on True love 2 days ago:
Well, unless your legal name is Impound4017, I think we can both agree many people have at least 2 names, if not more. I’ve accumulated at least, mmm, 8 over the years. Probably at least double that if you get pedantic about minor variations. And that’s just screennames, I’ve had a number of irl nicknames too.

Oh boy, core memory unlocked.
My first sexual encounter was 69ing on the floor while the food network was on. My head game was a lot better than hers, so she couldn’t really concentrate on upholding her side of the bargain. There I was, spelling out the ABCs watching Rachel Ray talking about pasta facials.

- Comment on If a revolution started tomorrow in the US to get rid of Trump, could the majority of society use hit and run tactics successfully? Or what would be the tactics the rebels would use? 6 days ago:
Please, you think this question is some kind of honeypot?
If it was, that wouldn’t work. 80% of his most loyal staff (especially the secret service) are part of the revolution, playing the long game to undermine his administration from within. Basically, everyone he truly relies on is plotting against him.

I try to avoid any kind of scroll-type behavior on my desktop. Desktop is for actual work, or hobbies that require actual focus and labor.
If I infect the big screen with mindless content consumption, I’ll ruin the quarantine.

It’s funny you mention the math because i hear english is bizarrely efficient as a language
Maybe, but I think it’s mostly just that it’s my native language and I was a voracious reader in my childhood so I got really good at it. I do appreciate the Germanic composite nature, but I didn’t, like, actively choose English.
Given how long it takes you might want to get started tomorrow!
Eh, like I said, that’s a future me problem. I think the “fun” way is going to be learning along with my kids. Start with the basics, consume simple media, immersion, all that. I’m not too worried about it, if I need to supplement with other methods I’ll supplement. But I think the time it takes the kids to become fluent will be long and gradual enough to work for me.

English, and quite well.
I’ve tried Spanish, German, Japanese, Esperanto, and a smattering of others. I just don’t have the mental temperament for language learning, I’m a math guy. I’m already very proficient in arguably the most useful one, and I just can’t justify the time and effort that I could be using to learn other more broadly useful topics.
I promised my wife I’d learn her native language alongside our future children, but that’s a future me problem.

Heads of state actually just do that, and in the process eject projectiles which look just like bullets into the muzzles of nearby firearms. It truly is crazy how nature do that.

Quinoa sounds awful on a sandwich, it’s gonna be all over the floor. Why not queso?
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
People who prefer using a spoon for (non ice cream) cake are the type of people who make a song and dance out of succumbing to temptation when they order it.

Capitalism excels at breeding innovation. Not in like, useful technology or anything, but in constructing labyrinthine bureaucratic structures to bypass regulations.

The Apollo missions were staged, that’s 100% a fact.
Jokes aside, yeah Soviets are the answer. If there was the slightest inkling that we faked it, they wouldn’t have come out to congratulate us.

Publication order is probably fine, though it takes a few books for him to settle into his general story structure. It’s not the only way, and unless you’re going to sprint through them in relatively quick succession it’s probably not the best way, as you may get lost in some of the focused character development.
This is a bit of an open question****. Most of the books center around one or another subgroup of characters (City Watch, the wizards, the witches, Death, etc.), although there’s some overlap. The way I’ve been going through seems to be roughly the agreed upon “best” way: choose one of these sub-groups and read all the books that center around them in order, then move on to another.
Those sub-series are relatively self-contained, so I think you get more from exploring a theme from beginning to end than jumping from theme to theme. There are several tie-ins, but I don’t think they’re substantial enough to agonize over missing context.
Personally, I’d either start with Guards! Guards! or Going Postal, as they’re the beginnings of the more grounded sub-series and give you a good foundation of the world in general, and Ankh-Morpork in particular. But as long as you’re not skipping ahead in a sub-series, you should be fine.

I was gonna make a joke, but then I read the article and
After serving enlisted in the United States Air Force, Eiffel entered the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1993. In her first year, she was sexually assaulted by another cadet, but thwarted the attack with a training sword. She was subsequently dismissed from the Academy with a personality disorder: “I really felt that the only way for me to sleep is if I was holding onto something, like my sword, because that was the one thing that protected me. And it just got worse,” she said.
kinda takes the fun out of it
