    Some of the fish were smart enough to get back into the water. We weren’t. It’s on us.

    35 million years ago the dinosaurs had been gone for 30 million years. The Eifelian period where vertebrates were first on land was about 319 million years ago. If you use days instead of years that’s a difference of days that’s like saying I pissed in my bed a month ago, when in fact it was almost and entire year ago. You see, I’ve had issues with my bladder recently. I believe it was an infection, but the doctor says it was just some irritation. He put me on some medicine and it does help, but I think it will clear up on its own either way.

        Oh no, I’m glad they did. You see, I’ve had issues with my bladder recently too. I believed it was an infection, but if his doctor says it was just some irritation, maybe so it is for me too. I just wish I knew what medicine he got prescribed. I guess I’ll have to hope it clears up on its own.

    Nah, the fish crawled out of the ocean just to escape some bullshit meeting with the other fish.

        It’s why we put so much money into space travel. You can do pretty much everything you need to do with robots, but that’s not the point. The point is to get out of bullshit meetings.

        “Houston is on comms and wants to discuss the status of the mission”. Fuck it, let’s fly this thing into the nearest black hole.

    Covid proved this often superfluous content can either be in an email or consumed from home on Teams, with a peppy chat sidebar.

    There’s a new manager who keeps trying to make them in person. She was angry only 4 people out of 40 showed up to the last one.

    Lady, I’m not here to validate your power point creation. That, and I can watch your little slide show at home, in yoga pants, with hot tea, while watching deer out my window.
