Bakachu,

Yeah I’d say that’s got to be triggering to hear. How do you respond to “advice” like that normally? Assuming it’s from someone who actually knows your brother.

Bakachu,

Bionics. In the show, The Expanse there’s a scene where a guy who had his arm cut off in a space accident is trying to get his company to not cheap out and to pay for a bionic arm replacement instead of regrowing him a new arm. The bionic arm being greatly more superior than a normal arm.

Lately, robotics and prostheses are becoming so advanced I can see this as happening to where people will eventually want artificial designer parts over their own.

Bakachu,

Actually that makes a lot of sense in context of that scene, considering all the genetic struggles belters have to deal with growing up in low G.

Bakachu,

Bho ko - a spicy Vietnamese beef stew - immediately comes to mind for me. It’s savory, hearty, fragrant. Has a touch of sweet. Great mix of eastern and western ingredients so it’s familiar and comforting on many levels. A Vietnamese friend of mine made it for a dinner party a few years back and it set off the cravings.

I like mine without noodles, and instead with toasted french bread for dipping.

Bakachu,

That’s the magic right there - with the banh mi.

Bakachu,

If you’re one of the people who like the bowls from fast casual places like Chipotle, Qdoba, or even those poke bowl places, get their non-protein/vegetarian option then go home and add your own protein. This saves about $2-$4 a bowl and can possibly extend the bowl’s lifespan into two meals.

I bring it home my bowl and add in my own falafel, chicken, shrimp, or whatever protein I have on hand. Getting frozen protein and airfrying it is the easiest. I guess I could also grill stuff but I’m usually short on time.

I remember back in the day a few food court places did this. They’d preload a to-go container with a ton of food and mark it for $5 about 30 minutes before the mall closed. I haven’t seen a food court do this since 2008 though.

Omg yes this absolutely. I eat to nourish myself and survive and am punished randomly by self-inflicted mouth wound that lasts for days/weeks => evolutionary failure at its finest.

Insult to injury when the food is actually something healthy like a salad instead of fries.

Bakachu,

This is so fucked up but yeah I can see them settling for research on a drug or treatment that just keeps you from reaching Stage 4 to where you become a lifelong consumer of said medical company.

Bakachu,

I disagree - one hole for everything. Just imagine how many less medical clinics you need to go to.

Yes, I’m American.

Bakachu,

I find your third point interesting. I read something a while back that suggested some cigarette smokers got started or hooked because of a compulsive need to have hands and/or mouth preoccupied, particularly in stressful situations. I think it was called something like digital-oral fixation? Anyways, I wonder if that’s one of the reasons behind constant snacking. Maybe a stress response paired with a compulsive disorder…

Bakachu,

This show absolutely - if for nothing else but the casting that made you actually believe past/present/future characters were the same person.

Bakachu,

QR code to a “fun” website. Your definition of fun may vary.

Bakachu,

Sad to say but it’d almost be fitting that we get taken out by our own brain-eating selves after all the bullshit we’ve unleashed on this planet.
