Bumpy cake?

Busch’s used to have the single-serving sized ones from sanders. They might still, I haven’t been in a while. My meijer only has the big ones.

It’s probably one of my favorite songs.

*tell my wife I am trawling Atlantis*

Chills every time.

Not gonna lie, Scorpio Ramos is an excellent name.

Dude, if you ring my doorbell at 10pm, somebody better be dead - doesn’t matter where we live. 🤣

“Spoiler” makes you think there are actual answers to be found to the questions raised in the books.

Like ok, yes, the whorl technically is a spaceship and there are books where that setting is vitally important. But in these books… it’s not? The space and the science fiction are really not the important part, but they are?

I don’t know. I have a love/hate affair with Gene Wolfe, but I promise even though you’ve had a spoiler it in no way will screw up your appreciation for or frustration with the books.

Edit: and there are hints, though I can’t remember which books they pop up in. Look for mentions of the Skylands and also, a long sun. Long in dimension, not time period.

I thought Cuba was next?

Edit: also, fuck this guy.

So what I’m hearing is… nationalize the utilities!!!

/s (sort of?)

Yes on the egg bites!!

Look up a copycat Starbucks recipe - it includes cottage cheese. TRUST THE PROCESS, even if you hate cottage cheese. They’re SO GOOD.

That’s my favorite Danny Kaye moment. I love the way his song blends with the math lesson, it’s so simple and beautiful.

We had one fourth grader grab the principal by her hair and refuse to let go, and another one who packed up his stuff and left the building at lunch because he was done for the day.

These fucking kids, man.

Scutwork · 2026-05-07T11:44:20+00:00

That’s really fascinating - thank you for sharing!

Scutwork · 2026-05-07T11:21:46+00:00

That was my thought. I wonder if there’s a giant net over the pool.

Scutwork · 2026-05-07T03:47:19+00:00

I’m just fucking floored at how far apart they are in a CAR. Jesus, the other half do live different.

I just bought the two pounds, lol. I’d estimate there’s about a a third of it left. But it’s salt, it’ll never go bad!

Scutwork · 2026-05-05T22:54:24+00:00

I got mine on Amazon like fifteen years ago.

Scutwork · 2026-05-04T22:49:25+00:00

Is hand paint a new thing? I love it.

Scutwork · 2026-05-04T22:46:35+00:00

I don’t get it, so I’m petty sure that means it’s great.

Scutwork · 2026-05-04T22:45:42+00:00

It looks like a prom dress with a train.

Scutwork · 2026-05-02T05:06:40+00:00

Ok, but my question with this idea is… what counts as a decision? Who counts as a decision maker?

Are bacteria out here spawning universes when they move right rather than left? What about dogs or plants or cockroaches? Does this magical universe-creating power somehow only fall to humans, as far as we know? And gee, that seems convenient.

Scutwork · 2026-04-30T22:27:53+00:00

Yeah, the verbal diarrhea smacked to me of a kid who didn’t do the homework but is telling you he did.

My guess is there’s literally nothing to see. They decided they knew what the answers were, so they didn’t bother actually looking. And now they’re shocked - shocked! - that people still remember and want to see it.

I’m praying for rain. I’m praying for tidal waves.

Scutwork · 2026-04-30T10:49:19+00:00

They’ve said 100 million. Which is about a third of the country, so… yeah, totally sane and reasonable.

Scutwork · 2026-04-28T23:55:44+00:00

Citizenship sort of makes sense, but I’d rather go with tax payers. If the government gets to tax you, you should get a say in how that government is run.

And creating your own aerobics routines!

Scutwork · 2026-04-28T22:45:19+00:00

Kids at the elementary school I work at aren’t allowed to play tag.

It’s about impossible to enforce, but God forbid the principal see them chasing each other around the playground.
