Dareon posted:A few days ago I was sort of wondering if America as a culture has just blasted our attention span to smithereens or if it's just some kind of apathy, or maybe both, like we'll mouth platitudes and offer condolences over the latest catastrophe, and fifteen minutes later we'll be wondering what Britney Spears is up to these days. Today I learned that Americans can buy guns at Walmart(??!?!???!). Just the most agonisingly stupid concept imaginable. I wonder if a short attention span might be a kind of psychic defence mechanism against the horrors of daily life-? Anyway, what is Britney up to these days?

You mean... you can't walk into a giant poorly-ventilated metal box, sprawling across what once used to be verdant land like an asphalt-and-concrete melanoma, and walk out with everything you need to stalk, kill, skin, prepare, cook, and dispose of a large land mammal while in varying stages of inebriation?

DontMockMySmock posted:This is literally the first time where I've ever gotten the impression that Donald Trump is feeling sad. He's been angry, he's been frustrated, he's been confused, but this is the first time I can think of where he says something that seems to belie a true sadness underneath. You know the bit of your brain that makes you ask dogs "who's a good boy? Is it you? Yes!" Trump is missing that bit of his brain.

Mak0rz posted:Nah, it's just a triglid. They have modified pectoral fins that are equipped with flexible spines they can use like legs to skitter across the seafloor. What! Wikipedia says these things are fish that can walk, glide, make sounds, and smell with their fins. Truly the most versatile of fishies.

Poor Miserable Gurgi posted:A Deepness in the Sky, actually. Is that the one where there's a spider planet trapped in some kind of hell winter and a weird mind-wiping bunch of humans are orbiting it in their doom fleet and the humans listen in on the radio broadcasts of the emerging spider civilization and some of the mind-wiped humans are used as translators of the broadcast and start beating each other up because the flickering remnants of their souls really, really get into spider rivalries? Sorry for the long sentence, I read that book decades ago, and it all started coming back to me. (And the humans believed they were emerging, so they called themselves the Emergency!!)

PetraCore posted:Wouldn't there be some ignorance with extremely foreign animals that it's hard to import, so chances to see them would be rare but the artist would have heard of them? Like, not the snail, but there's a lot of elephants in there that look like they're being vaguely based on boars and then edited to fit descriptions of elephants, and then there's one in the comments drawn from a live reference and it's a lot different. How much is contemporary cartoony stylization vs not having a reference for stuff like elephants and tigers? It looks like it's based on Durer's earlier BEAUTIFUL rhinoceros picture. Anyway, I sort of don't blame anyone for drawing crocodiles and hippos wrong. Imagine getting close enough for an accurate image. Brrr.

Blurred posted:In an active voice construction, "need" requires the infinitive: "I need to wash the car" is possible, but "I need washing the car" is not.

Re: HellShoes, I think Jesus mentions hell twice in the gospels; the people there are a) the rich and b) those who refuse to feed and clothe the poor and welcome the homeless.
