That’s some really good cosplaying you’re performing there.

I won’t lie, some of your work I’d give five stars.

Spaceballs.

I have no doubt it can be done. I’ve seen something along these lines for myself. Many people have begun their life with destructive ideas only to realize what was wrong and shake that off themselves, which one might say is natural as the seekers of insight we are. I’d be lying to say this didn’t describe me in a few ways, having thought in a more generalized, unthinking way in the past. Given enough time, it’s hard to imagine that not all of us would become Uncle Iroh.

We are given a glimpse of this in history; we see the likes of Hirohito going from warlike to a pacifist, General Butt Naked converting from a genocidal warlord to a preacher, Dr. Seuss once being Japanophobic before making amends, the great Confucius himself becoming who he was after being disillusioned with his position of power, and if you are of my religious group, God himself.

I’m not sure. I’ve never tested that out. Though I’ve heard that even just being made of metal risks extra vetting at the airport.

Pokéballs by far. They’re like handheld guerilla reinforcements.

Do you know those supermagnets that can be found in old computer hardware? I take one of those, a particularly strong one, which my BF and his relatives found for me once during the advent of their metal detecting hobby. Good for things like getting stuff out of hard to reach places or determining the material of something, though I’m told it’s not so good for those who have put their phone or credit card too close to my baggage. I even once took a toy out of a grocery store toy machine this way (screw the rigged crane, especially when you have a kid who just went through a tragedy).

Some contaminants don’t wash. Certain kinds of bacteria, blood, etc. would be relatively more hazardous than, say, everyday filth. Ever hear of people complaining they can’t get the faint smokey odor off of furniture they received from people who smoked in their living rooms? My home has (for guests) a specialized smoke room for this reason (think a bathroom but just for smokers, not for people who have to use the bathroom).

Now we know where all the TP went during covid.

What if there’s no sink nearby?

Doesn’t that come with its own issues of reusage though? I think they stopped promoting ShamWow due to these.

Two factor authentication.

My childhood was far from relatable. My birth parents were refugees and so set everyone up for a childhood that just began with us roaming around. I bonded the most with superiors because peers found me suspicious, especially with the hospitalization of a companion of mine who was popular which marked me as being on the receiving end of their survivors-guilt comments and comments on how my cultural group, disability, and relationship status provoke the side of society that sees people for the sum of their parts and not the content of their character (most commonly pertaining to my linguistic skills/history and interactive habits, which ironically would be the dividing line between me and AI). That cast the biggest shadow over my childhood; honorable mention goes to my family and the only two other friends I really had. Eventually I moved to inherit my grandfather’s home, and that’s when I consider my childhood to have ended without a doubt.

Have you not seen the episode of the Simpsons where Homer gets kicked out of Moe’s tavern?

Look up Guy Incognito.

The American president?

When did this happen?

The rumor started with a few celebrities with their new age theories (from the same era that brought you “rock and roll comes from the devil”, “Anne Frank didn’t write her diaries”, and “Elvis is alive but Paul McCartney is dead”) and then it just kind of picked up because America isn’t very pro-disability and gets alienated easily. Fortunately it has finally just about died down, but once in a while someone will bring it up.

GoodWill comes to mind. Their coattail riding off of literally anyone who isn’t them is one of the reasons why I adopted a charitable modus operandi with the roles switched. There are three sides to GoodWill, being the gifters, the sellers, and the workers, and they all operate under a synergetic weave of false pretenses. They also ban people from shopping at GoodWill if they have a relative who works there because it brings up questions of nepotism and don’t let workers buy any of their own stuff. So yeah, if we could get a law saying we can ban GoodWill managers from our own businesses, I wouldn’t bat an eye.

I’ve never heard that before, but I do know that protestors aren’t very creative, which might be why they fail as much as they do.

Same here.

Monkeys.
