    Man being poor in this society is some bullshit. I hope in the new year we can learn the price and value of some good will.

    Falling that, I hope all of you strike it rich somehow.

    I had a boss once explain to me in detail how our work was haunted and all her theories about the ghosts and whanot.

    And I wanted to sass her so badly, but, I mean. She was my boss.

    Hey, next time this happens let me know and I'll fax over my rates. I can even get a group together with a smoke machine, some sophisticated puppets and a car with the lights and everything.

    because the exchange rate fluctuates, it is possible to make quite a bit of money with bitcoin.

    in the same way you would shorting trash stocks.

    on a long enough time line, with an automated system and a good amount of liquid up front, it's actually quite simple.

    Good luck getting actual money in exchange for your accumulated bitcoins, though.

    I believe Stale has already managed to make money before off of a fake, digital currency. I can't imagine this is any different.

    Bitcoin is a great racket

    but it is not MONEY 2.0 or the answer to inflation or the future of trade or any of that horseshit Reddit says it is

    it's a fucking racket

    I'm familiar with the story of how Stale bought a house with Star Wars videogame money, yes.

    It's significantly easier to get people to give you real money for fake videogame currency than it is to cash out 1000 bitcoins for USD, though.

    I can't forget about Dre. I was just thinking about the good doctor today, in-fact.

    Now Coolio, that's a dude I have pretty-much forgotten about.

    Hey chat thread. Last night I went round a mate's house, he got a rad telescope for xmas so we spent several hours freezing our butts off looking at the sky because recently there has been a weird phenomenon occurring in the UK where there are no clouds.

    I saw Jupiter close enough to see all its moons and the stripes on its body. It was AWESOME. GUYS SPACE IS SO COOL.

    Hey chat thread. Last night I went round a mate's house, he got a rad telescope for xmas so we spent several hours freezing our butts off looking at the sky because recently there has been a weird phenomenon occurring in the UK where there are no clouds.

    I saw Jupiter close enough to see all its moons and the stripes on its body. It was AWESOME. GUYS SPACE IS SO COOL.

    I had a dream the other morning that woke me up. A friend of mine that I work with got a new telescope and I went over to his place to check it out, much like you did. Only in my dream, the telescope magnified Jupiter to look like it does in high-res photographs taken by satellites, all huge and in my face. That was disorienting enough but then he pulled out a laser pointer and I could see it shining through Jupiter's clouds and that really freaked me out that somehow his light was able to reach that far. I got some major vertigo and I jerked awake.

    As a side note, I get bad vertigo just looking up at the sky when I'm standing away from buildings or trees or anything. Also whenever I try and visualize exactly how infinitely massive the universe is. And sometimes if I visualize a planet in front of me that I'm backing away from I feel like there's nothing underneath me (because there isn't) and I feel like I'm about to fall. I'm weird.

    eagles are monsters

    Kangaroos aren't in the game because they made it too hard.

    I mean, sure kangaroos can defeat foreign Eagles.

    But you say that to the Wedge Tailed Eagles I see sitting on the ground.

    Of course space is asexual.

    Why would space be sexual.

    Only a little bit at a time, otherwise it can cause permananent damage. Call a doctor if your high tide lasts more than four hours.

    So, I gave a ride home to a coworker a few years ago, but first she asked if we could stop at the grocery store to grab a frozen pizza. She looked and looked for a Canadian bacon pizza. I found one. Kraft brand Canadian bacon oven pizza.

    She promptly informed me that she couldn't buy that one because Kraft cheese has nanobots in it that control your mind!

    I couldn't even think of what to say to that after I asked if she was serious. Just smile and nod.

    Kraft cheese isn't
    Buy more cheese!
    controlling my brain.

    It is A Phenomenon.

    The thing that is important to remember is that "really intelligent" is not an actual inherent trait of a person. It's not like "really tall". It's a social descriptor. So you can colloquially be like "shit, that professor is well-versed in the field and has frequently got insightful ideas about the future of materials science" = "that person's smart", but that generalization will gloss over the fact that you have no idea what they're up to outside of that field.

    And yeah being well-versed in cooking up plausible explanations for phenomena sometimes causes people to say "Well, I don't have time to exhaustively check out ghost-related stuff because I am working full time as an astrophysicist but IF IT WERE TRUE it would be in this really clever hard-to-disprove manner."

    Take a moment to donate what you can to Critical Resistance and Black Lives Matter.

    Obviously not, everyone knows that Nanobots talk in italics, not spoilers.
    No we don't. And remember to drink your Ovaltine!

    Yeah I avoid it. It is gross. If she didn't like it, fine. But don't come at me with the nanobots.

    The real moral of the story is that only crazy people like Canadian bacon pizza.
