"There are intellectually honest people who don’t know what the normal distribution is. There are no intellectually honest people who, not knowing what it is, figure that it must be something racist."
Ugh.
Made a stupid mistake and hurt people I love (and myself too.)
It will pass eventually, but it sucks.
A new _Spice and Wolf_ season where the duo get involved with crypt0currency, funded by selling lewd Holo NFTs.
Why is everyone so goddamn horny?
I hate it when that one guy has a correct point that ought to be answered, but it's all wrapped up in a nasty worldview that gets him banned.
I get a college education and work as a wage slave so my children can take out massive loans to get a college education and work as a wage slave so their children can take out massive loans and live with roommates to get a college education and work as a wage slave...
I forgot that two of the thugs had a side bet on if Takagi would give up the password.
Watching _Die Hard_, as you do, and I am struck by how slowly the movie starts.
Merry Christmas, fam.
I'm gonna spend time with my kids.
I hope you have a good holiday.
Theory:
The most effective NPI against covid was not closing businesses, but making it socially acceptable for people to stay home when they were sick.
I'm very protective of safe spaces for weirdos and get very upset when normies start <could you just>ing in ways that make them more convenient for the normies and less convenient for the natives.
Alice: I never would, of course. But I can feel the poison. It's in me and within me and wound all through me. It cannot be separated from me.
Bob: I think you're judging yourself too harshly for impulses you don't actually act on. These kind of thoughts are common, actually.
The nurse makes small talk with Miyuki about Kiyoko. Her name is Kiyoko too.
When Gin goes to pay Hana's bill he crosses paths with the nurse, who looks like she's just seen a ghost.
It's his daughter.
Gin wants more than anything to see his daughter.
Hana collapses. Has she been coughing up blood?
The doctor recommends rest and good nutrition.
Gin notes that they're homeless and rest and good nutrition are not really on offer.
Miyuki calls home. Her father knows it's her, even though she can't bring herself to speak a word.
Gin is having feelings. His wife and daughter didn't die. He just left because he had a drinking and gambling problem. Just like Kiyoko's father.
Miyuki has found something on a newspaper in the wreckage. It's a personal notice.
Miyuki: Angel has come home. - Dad
(Angel was her cat's name.)
Over the next day, they check and double check the photograph until they find the house.
It's a ruin.
The neighbor knew them though. He was a gambler and a mean drunk. Ran up a bunch of debt, then they had to leave town.
She was violent too. He had bruises on the regular.
"Mother", the owner of the club asks Hana why she's hanging out with a homeless guy.
Well, she's homeless too. Really ever since Ken died, she's fallen apart.
Ken died? Was it AIDS?
No, he slipped on the soap in the bath.
I guess we're always one bad step away from death.
Hana, with nowhere to stay for the night and no other options, calls in her last favor.
She goes to the drag club where she used to perform: the Angel Club.
And what do you know, Gin is convalescing there. His rescuer was that kind of angel.
