@futurebird Kinda disappointed that Dune used "folding space" when wormholes were right there.

Both our greatest desire and our greatest fear is to be left alone.

Is there any money to be made in CPAP hookahs?

Every couple of months #Subway redesigns their app and it forgets SOME of your info. The best one was the time it remembered our standard sandwiches but forgot that we would want any condiments on them.

I'd be interested in a book or podcast about industry, agriculture, transportation, infrastructure, and so on, focusing on artifacts, processes, and systems rather than finances or personal journeys. How does the actual stuff in the economy get made and moved around?

Watcha got?

It does appear to be limited to actual strikes rather than boycotts.

@trinsec It feels slightly different in a way I'm trying to put my finger on. Consider the difference between a flock of birds in flight and the same group of birds noodling around a yard looking for worms.

@trinsec I'm looking for a word for the related feel of large numbers of objects swooping around: schools of fish, flocks of birds, starfighter dogfights, auto races, etc.

In a fit of panic, I called #Bananagrams with an incomplete word in my grid. I have brought shame upon my house.
