ND is the new introverted.

Only introverts think deeply, get anxious, or enjoy academic pursuits. Do you have a counterexample? Oh, well that person just doesn't know they're an introvert, so the pattern still holds!

Same with ND/NT. Nobody is neurotypical according to this definition because everyone has something they struggle with or are quirky about.

I've tried to participate in a few communities only to eventually realize I'm posting in a dead/defederated copy.

I'm trying hard to make this work, but it feels like there's really not much here outside of the standard "DAE fuck spez???" stuff.

Fair enough! It's a classic.

Also you can feed strawberry tops and leaves to dogs, if you have any, in moderation. They lose their minds over them!

Did this get reposted somewhere notable recently? This is the third time today I've seen someone reference this ten year old post

For what it's worth, several Catholics I know have also had to read the book with notes open on the side. Monastic culture and tradition isn't exactly common knowledge anymore, though I'm not sure if they would have been in the 50s, or if Miller just trusts that his reader is smart enough to catch on.

If you like Canticle, consider looking into the works of Gene Wolfe. He also writes very re-readable sci-fi that expects much of the reader, and delivers much in turn.

If Randall had a monthly newsletter consisting of maximally confusing (but technically accurate) headlines, I'd subscribe in a heartbeat

I really don't like eggs, but (eggs+flour) make easy noodles that will make several filling meals.

Any sort of cuisine from historically depressed areas is going to be great. For me, that's Cajun and Creole food -- lots of rice, beans, and spices in the skillet. Get frozen vegetables in bulk if fresh is too expensive, because you're going to be cooking them to mush anyway.

I've found that the key isn't minimizing the dollar amount, but maximizing the output. A little bit of butter may be more expensive, but if you add in a fuckton of rice and beans, that 2tbsp butter will improve your next week's worth of food.

The middle-South could use another team, and I hope they can support one.

Nashville is absolutely booming, for better or worse, and it would be nice for the Predators to get a few neighbors.

It's so wonderful to see him thriving in Cincinnati, and the team apparently loves him too. Thrilled for the Reds, and hope they can keep it going!
