This coming weekend is probably a big travel weekend for most folks. It's the weekend before Christmas, so we are travelling to Abilene to see my sister. My brother is coming in from DFW with his wife and two daughters that are the same age as my boys - 16 and 12. Drinking isn't as much of a thing as it has been in decades past. The moms usually get pretty lit up on wine, but my brother and I don't get all rowdy and hit the bars for high school reuinion type parties any more. The last couple of years I have brought a game to try to get everybody doing the same thing for a little while. I brought out this Blockbuster Video trivia card game. It was fun for about 20-30 minutes. I won. My brother got all snippy that I won. The girls liked it until they needed a second refill of wine. Good enough for a $20ish game. I was listening to a podast by Tim Ferris, and he made this new game that he was advertising heavily. Coyote. Link is a six second video showing game play. https://www.amazon.com/vdp/03eb9036ea534f5d921437398a126ad6?product=B0FBT88VRJ&ref=cm_sw_cp_r_ib_dt_w3W5sfx3AK6G5 Does anyone have other fun games like this for family get-togethers?- ChatGPT AI Tool— We all work for robots now

That didn't really bother me after the Chantix nightmare I had last night. I'm on day 24. I haven't smoked at all in a week. Dreams are so fucking real and I have been having a regular theme of dying in clostorphobia. Last night, I dreamed for a very long time. I was trying to cross over this pile of large rusty metal and junk to get across to my friend. Then suddenly the rusty metal and junk started moving as if on a conveyer belt, then began descending under ground. Then the metal and earth began to crush me feet first in painful agony and clostorphobic dread with plenty of time to contemplate the rest of my torso about to be crushed. Then something spikey started to crush my head, but not enough to kill me. I was under there with my chest compressed just enough for 10% breaths until my breathing failed and I died and then I woke up. Lulz.- Bidet Meta Threas
I just had an outlet installed near my toilet. What's the best electric model I can get for say.... $300? Maybe an option for $150? I have done no research, and I don't have time to read the thread.

That assembly video on the home page is nutzo... I can't copy/paste the video. Just go to the page Brat linked and scroll a little. Literally amazing.

Good video. That guy has really young looking skin that doesn't match his gray beard. So, why aren't there any/more violent videos? It seams there would be a lot of resistance. Right now it seams like no resistance. There's not really any running-away videos either; just compliance. Why is that? (This is a real question and not bait or sarcasm).- Dominique's Sweater Tonight

She is so fine. I'm not usually one for the hard-lined face, and I usually like a little more cushion. I like 'im a little softer and sweeter, but I would let her sex-bot-beat me to death. Death by snu-snu! And it's something about the way they shot those almost naked shots just right. Just a cunt's hair away from seeing a cunt's hair as her dress dropped. Although her puss was probably as bald as a hairless sex bot that was custom built to destroy men and worlds. More for my viewing pleasure...

I'm all for it. Nuke it from orbit. I do like usefull YouTube and short videos of how to fix/build stuff though. I'm glad we made it through the turmoil of the printing press and reliable paper manufacturing: Then came the early 19th century, which saw enormous changes in the manufacture of paper and improvements on the printing press. These changes both contributed to and resulted from major societal changes, such as the worldwide growth increase in formal education. There were more books than ever and more people who could read them. For some, this looked less like progress and more like a dangerous and destabilizing trend that could threaten not just literature, but the solvency of civilization itself. https://www.newamerica.org/weekly/19th-century-moral-panic-over-paper-technology/ AI Overview In the 1800s, fears arose that widespread reading, especially of cheap novels and partisan newspapers, would degrade culture by fostering addiction, anti-social behavior, moral corruption, and distraction from "real" knowledge,with critics describing it as a "reading mania" or "fever" that made people lazy, overly emotional, and disconnected from community, a common cultural panic mirroring concerns about new media today. Key Concerns & "Stories": Reading Mania: A prevalent fear was that avid readers, particularly of fiction, suffered from an addiction or "disease" that isolated them, blurring reality and corrupting morals, turning them into anti-social daydreamers. Distraction from Substance: Critics, like those writing in the 1820s, urged young people to stick to serious history and biographies, viewing novels as frivolous "flowery" distractions from sober facts. Moral & Intellectual Decline: There was a worry that the sheer volume of printed material, especially sensationalist or partisan news, would make people intellectually lazy, unable to memorize, and susceptible to misinformation, undermining true understanding. Social Fragmentation: The act of reading, once a communal activity, became individual, leading to concerns that people would become oblivious to their peers and community, lost in their books. The "Decline" Narrative: These worries weren't isolated; they were part of a broader anxiety about the transformative power of print technology, much like today's debates about screens and the internet. The rise of mass-produced books and cheap newspapers created a new information landscape, prompting older generations to lament a perceived loss of traditional values, deeper thinking, and community cohesion, all blamed on the new media. In essence, the "story" was that accessible reading wasn't uplifting everyone but rather creating a new kind of cultural illiteracy and moral weakness, a recurring theme whenever a new way to consume stories and information takes hold. - Family Games
