I was actually just telling someone about that on Thursday, I didn't even think to make that connection! The robots at the table splitting the bill as the core of the drive is so funny. Douglas Adams is a beauty.

I've just been watching through Futurama again, and so many of the lines never fail to crack me up.

I just watched the episode in season 3 where Zap, Kiff, Leela and Amy go on a double date, and the space station restaurant starts crashing so Zap takes the wheel to "save the day". As he takes the wheel he says so confidently"She's built like a steakhouse but handles like a Bistro" and that line absolutely slays me. I was almost in tears hearing it again, I love Zap as a character so much.

I'm reading Deaths End the 3rd book in the "Three Body Problem" series.

Some of the best sci-fi I've ever read, super unique ideas, I was blown away with some of the concepts in this series.

I feel like that's a common trend in modern media, a lot of remakes and alternate versions of the same story. Like they are bringing back Harry Potter as a series, and they are doing a peter pan and Wendy thing as well. Seems like there aren't a ton of original things that are getting these big budgets. Not saying there aren't original things coming out, they don't seem to be what the Hollywood "default" is at the moment

I love how sinister this comes off.

Roald Dahl's books (most) have such dark undertones, this picture feels so in universe I love it

It's just a word document with what I've done/ who I've talked to as different points. Sometimess something will have more meat so I'll give that one bullet points to speak more about it. At the end of the day, it's not for anyone other than yourself so what you write whether formal or shorthand, is up to you. I type mine a little bit more formally, it helps me be more specific and ramble less of that makes sense. It also allows me to be able to pull it up and read almost word for word if someone asks " what did you get up to today"

Don't know if that's helpful at all, but that's how Ive been doing it!

Lmao this reads like Warhammer 40K lore, it's amazing

My thoughts exactly, this is still generating a lot of traffic for reddit, and more proves the point that it doesn't matter what they pull, as long as they do some cool stuff that only happens on Reddit, people will still go. Maybe using place for advertising the fediverse would be better but even then, still using the system. Don't know the answer, just not sure this is as effective as we would hope.
