Savory gelatin tho.... I'm so glad I was born too late to enjoy a 1970s midwestern potluck dinner party.

Look up Microsoft in the early 90s and how we all got through it.

I think you made the right choice with screw into plastic and captive nuts. If you're not going to take it apart, I think that's plenty. I recognize people like their heat set inserts and they're great for panels that need to be removed from time to time but for me, I prefer to screw it and glue it for most things, and captive nuts for the rest.

I really don't think you're being fair. I was in chanology in Clearwater, Arab Spring in Rabat, the second Penguin Revolution in Santiago de Chile, and countless major demonstrations in support of worker rights and LGBT community issues all over the world. When I come on the internet (as I've done since 1994), I don't want to endlessly talk about politics with the normies here. I want to talk about normie topics like cooking, cats, sports, and Taylor Swift. I save my outrage for real world actions.

According to you, I'm practicing an attitude of acceptance with regard to the state of the world because that's all you see and hear from me. What do you think that says about your worldview and your outlook on people?

I think we're at a point where we can all agree that having interests beyond what's serious and exigent is healthy and reasonable. Now we need to get past the idea that not liking something that's popular (like sports and entertainment) makes you better than people who do. It doesn't make you better.

People who like Taylor and Travis and want them to do well are not automatically complacent in other areas of their lives. They don't have their heads up their asses for this reason. They have nothing to be ashamed of, talking about topics that, in your opinion, are useless drivel. Especially here, on the internet.

In general it's super common to daydream all the time. Maintaining yourself in the mindful present is a skill you have to learn. Most people are generally not mindfully present in their lives. You may want to try something like zen or breathing meditation, anything to bring you back to the present when you start to drift.
