I will say again that he did step right into the same pitfall in Open House, townreading me in like 4 pages and fortunately being right, so I'm not personally completely sold on my idea.

I'm pretty willing to wait and see where Sleepless goes with this. If he's not caught up and believes that to be the most important priority, then that's fine with me. I'm just not enthusiastic about emphasizing realtime, wanting to get stronger reads...and then skirting the invitation to evaluate a PoE slot of his completely rather than giving it a shot.

I'd like to see more fleshed out reasoning on slots regardless of whether it comes from a general readthrough, my ISO, or someone else's ISO.

I still don't understand why Harvard Medical School is asking me to provide a two page communist-classist interpretation of & response to Craig Morgan's "Redneck Yacht Club", but I guess they know what makes a good doctor better than I do.

Naming themselves the "Redneck Yacht Club", our average heroes reject the exclusivity & nobility of the modern high life, appropriating the term & dynamic for their own use and classist rebellion with like "Regular joes, rocking the boat-That's us!".

They contend that the finer things in life are not barred to the morally impoverished lower classes, and that it is in fact the opposite that is true: it is the poor with the moral high ground and rich life of mind, and the merely material wealthy will never know the true joys offered by life.

Craig Morgan presents a cohesive, country-oriented philosophy for the 21st century Deep South proletariat.

it's a bit embarrassing how long it took me to register what the question is asking. the green one, clearly.

it appears to be a car, perhaps a racing car, running over some sort of animal. it resembles a tiger.

Just one, Datisi? And are you sure that it's not a tiger chasing a car frantically trying to reverse?

And you, skitter? What do you see?

I also feel obligated to give credit for the tiger graphic.

Once, many years ago, a few friends and I made our completely plastered way over to a house party. With our aesthetic sensibility refined to a sharp edge, tempered by a gratuitous portion of alcohol and a ferociously pounding bassline, we were convinced this song was the greatest artistic creation of mankind since Milton's Paradise Lost, or at least the "Harambe in Upright Respose, c. 2017".



And when we woke up we discovered we weren't even slightly wrong. skitter appears at 1:59.

me waiting for catboi to come back



I told you I'd leave a light on
In case you ever wanted to come back home
You smiled and said you appreciate the gesture
I took your every word to heart
'Cause I can't stand us being apart
And just to show how much I really miss ya
Every light in the house is on
The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn
The front walk looks like runway lights
It's kinda like noon in the dead of night
Every light in the house is on
Just in case you ever do get tired of being gone
