OC.
I wanted to buy $100 of bitcoin in HS and couldn't figure out how. Would have been like $60,000,000 :ccc
I've only read the two, but I remember being skeeved out when I read it and feeling very validated when I read Galatea.
So it's acceptable for Elselvier et al to milk academics blind? At the minimum, authors should not be charged.
I think Richard Powers is a sex weirdo who comes up with elaborate novel structures to contain his tulpa gf's in. I was really put off by the woman in the last short story who goes from bimbo to sexy ghost. That felt prototypical for how he sees women. He also admits to stalking and creeping on one of his grad students in his autofiction Galatea 2.2. The short stories were beautiful but the novel itself felt poorly executed with a lot of cut plot threads.
Alright but look at how much they pay the authors. What other business pays ZERO dollars for their core product?
It's true. I do. Even so-called 'nice' cops. (they're not nice...)
The poorly-animated cast of the spin-off series barely resembles the characters we know and love
Not seeing the downside lol
i do! 
sounds nice. very fragrant
such an awful thing doesn't need to be made to high standrads.
Holy shit I had no idea it had been that long but I got a cake day message and it made me check lol. Anyways thanks for all the laughs and learning over the years. I am so grateful this space exists...maybe it's finally time to get on the liberapay lmao.
Some of my best personal writing has started as comments or posts where I got too pressed/invested and the pen ain't turn off. Overall, I still really struggle with setting appropriate boundaries with the internet but the lower speed and higher quality of this forum have been real boons to me.
Keep posting. 
This is replacing the normal startup sequence.
E: now the screen is whiting out but I can still send and receive calls by typing in numbers.

It's to measure insulin response in diabetic people. Also it's not plain, it's pumpkin spice! :p
The goal is to give someone under monitoring a very large volume of sugar in a controlled environment and measure their body's insulin response. This is particularly a test of Phase I insulin response when your body responds to sugar intake by releasing stored insulin as opposed to Phase II insulin response where your body secretes insulin as it is produced to bring down elevated blood sugar after the Phase I stores are depleted.
That said this is a nutty amount of sugar and I had no idea that they made them this large.
