Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

What is even happening?

Heh Jesse, I read your name as Jesus, when I first saw that post.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yeah, there's no wrapping your head around faith.

It's like trying to imagine infinity. It always hurts my head. One of the physicits brought me a sketch of the universe, shaped like a soccer ball. I said, "what's on the outside of the soccer ball?"

"Nothing"

"Well, that's something isn't it?"

It's like Monty Python around here, all day long, except it's not so funny when you're in the sketch and no one told you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And Jesus agrees with me, too!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Heh Jesse, I read your name as Jesus, when I first saw that post.

Heh. Proof of God's existence or sock puppet?

But I see evidence all around me that other people discount as accident.

But see, next to rainbows and lollypops, I see mass murders and child molesters. It's a nasty, two-sided coin which makes me doubt the existence of a benevolent diety. *shrugs*

Someone tell me I should be working on a volunteer project that is due TOMORROW and which I have only half-finished.

If I only had a brain...

I went to a Restoration Hardware warehouse sale last year. It was REALLY disappointing -- everything was wildly overpriced, like one of their chests of drawers with a gouge and two drawers missing. Price $300.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It's almost like I can't resist!

Almost?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

It's like trying to imagine infinity. It always hurts my head.

Quantum physics and cosmology are the closest things I have to a religion -- there is some massively weird and powerful shit out there, and it awes me.

We have the big bang in a trap about 10 feet to the left of me, or so they tell me.

And on a completely other topic, does anyone have a good recipe for peppercorn salad dressing? One that I probably already have everything for in my kitchen?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I don't recall if my high school taught evolution as such. Biology and earth sciences, yeah, but evolution? Not that I remember.(They certainly didn't teach creationism) As a tangent, I remember a point in high school biology(well, mammalian physiology) where I thought "all this is happening around us all the time! Cool!"(This being the workings of the various systems in a body)
