“Those Poor Boys”

I began playing metroid prime, and am now preoccupied using the scan tool on everything to find out if it’s edible  🍽️

I won't always act like it, but yeah.

Okay seriously. Reblog if you're OLDER than 11.

Yep.

Encyclopedia Bullshitica is now for sale through Barnes and Noble!

The first facts-i-just-made-up book can now be purchased through Barnes and Noble here. It's still available directly from Lulu.com, where I get about $7 per copy, but but Barnes and Noble can order it to any of their stores if that's helpful or more convenient.

If you like the blog, please check it out!

Ah yes. Cookie birth. Soon to get... Covered in frosting... How many baking terms sound kinda raunchy?

Instead of doing a big incoherent infodumping ramble, I decided to make a big infographic timeline to explain Metroid to someone. Thought it might be neat to share here, too.

Dentistry

When you go to a dentist, and they massively overcharge you for a basic cleaning, but also tell you that one of your molars is 'cracked' and 'dying, if not dead' you'll probably take it with a grain of salt, especially if you then check with another dentist who says there is only some minor damage from past cavities.

That makes sense, right? Disregarding the suspiciously expensive analysis from the dentist who seems to be trying to get you to pay excessive amounts of money?

I thought it made sense.

Sure, the tooth felt kinda weird, and I'd recently experienced some issues with all my teeth from having a sinus infection bad enough it made my teeth shift from the swelling and shrinking of the flesh in my jaws.

Sure, there was a point where the tooth in question shifted enough that I ended up biting it painfully, only for it to settle down again over the next day or so, and go back to feeling only slightly weird.

But surely I can't have a broken or breaking tooth in my mouth and not notice it! Surely I'd feel if a tooth was dying/dead!

Yeah guess who just swallowed about a third of a molar and needs a near-emergency tooth extraction to pull the remaining tooth out sometime soon?

I'm just glad it apparently is dead, and therefor not causing horrendous pain by being a literal broken tooth in my mouth.

Money doesn't buy happiness, it just lets you buy all the things that make happiness an option, like food and healthcare and shelter and societal presence and-

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.
