there are no reasons to keep going for me anymore. im scared but i guess i deserve it

How old were you when you first saw the 8 in the middle of the 8 of diamonds card?

A two headed duckling is double the cuteness.

For me, pogs were all the rage when I was a kid. It was a game played with circular disks made of thick cardstock (pogs) and metal disk (slammers)

The pogs had different designs. Some were cooler, more desirable. Most kids played the game for keeps but some kids traded them amongst each other. In a way, they were like money "I'll give you 10 pogs if you do my homework" or "I'll trade you 50 pogs for that slammer" and so on.

The fad was crazy but here's where it came apart for my friends and me. A family friend who ran a printing company was hired to print and cut pogs. We visited one day and he handed me a stack of overprints. Each page had about 40 pogs. I was a pog mogul overnight. He literally printed "money" and I had way too many for it to have value anymore.

I think kids naturally gravitate to creating money systems among themselves. They see the world transacting in dollars and instinctively know that money is a way to transfer value. But as a kid, you didn't really have access to "adult money" so you'd make up your own among your peers. I'm interested to see if there are other similar stories out there.

Are you scared yet?

Weather is going to start getting nice tomorrow, both literally and figuratively. My last final is tomorrow and spring should come to the Midwest. Until then, PJs and studying.

just setting up my nostr

My idea for disposing of nuclear waste:

1. Get it into the finest powder possible, while also being soluble in water, perhaps via a combination of grinding and/or combustion and/or other chemical process.

2. Dilute in large amounts of water.

3. Release deep under the sea in the middle of the ocean

Now, most people will balk at step 3. But here is why I think it is actually safe:

a. Each nucleotide only emits radiation a small integer number of times as it falls though some decay chain. After which it is no longer a radioactive nucleotide.

b. One radionuclide is not dangerous. The average human experiences 4,430 decays per second just from the potassium in their body.

c. The radionuclides will diffuse and spread out widely across the ocean, hyper-diluting the radioactivity

d. Hyperdilute radioactivity is already with us and quite normal (see point b about potassium).

e. If the release point in the ocean is remote enough and fenced such that people are made aware to stay 100km away from it (for example) for a while after insertion, people can avoid the concentrations of radiation that are dangerous.

f. It doesn't matter that the half-life is very long (100,000 years) if the particles are broadly spread out.

g. It might matter that some of these components are foreign to Earth (only otherwise created in supernovas and long-ago decayed on natural Earth) as they may have foreign and strange chemical properties. But probably not.

Too damn funny

Nooo bookmaking is so sick!!! I admire the precision and there are few things more exciting than a brand new a blank book 😍

I would love some weight loss. Unfortunately I just replaced drinking with eating lots of crap. My next challenge is eliminating 🍪🍰🥖🧁🎂🍩🍭🍦🍫🍬🍨. Or maybe I just accept I’ll never be perfect. We all suffer cardiac arrest at some point, right?

The bowl of strawberries sold me. Were still good by the time the book arrived. They still had a lil sugar on top, so I know they handled the package with maximum care. He ships faster than Amazon!

Congratulations! Obviously only you can make that decision for yourself, but I would encourage you to continue. I’ve been alcohol free for a good while now and I like the sober me better, both for health and social reasons.
