Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

I think developing artificial meat is the way that animal exploitation for food is going to end not by everyone becoming vegan which I don't think is a realistic expection.

We'd guess that artificial meat becoming more affordable than the real thing is the second-biggest factor in a widespread switch (followed closely by the stuff actually being good)

There's already some reasonably tasty plant-based meat substitutes out there if you're into chicken or ground beef. Less so if you want some nice fish or a steak.

Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

I remember having a bad run-in with our newest trope. One of my (former) meat space friends thought that the stereotype that Chinese people eat dogs is completely and irreversibly true. As a matter of fact, he refused to acknowledge any information to the contrary I told him about it. x_x

And that newest trope seems to have been deleted already. :S

Checked the replies. Seems to have been a semi-rogue launch. People just don't understand that they need to update the launch notice if they're launching it later than initially stated. At least it's not as bad as, say, not knowing or understanding that they need to put the examples in the draft instead of just launching it and expecting people to fill it in for them if they're edit banned.

I remember asking my writing teacher what I should do if I ever become like Michael Bay or George Lucas. He said not to worry.

It was either launched too soon or was a bad trope from the start

What is it with M. Night Shyamalan and having his characters speaking in eyebrow-raisingly confusing dialogue?

I can never read OFC as anything other than "of fucking course" and it always confuses me for a second.

I’m at the water park it turns out that I live right next door to, and there are twice as many people here as there was the last time. surprised Then again, it’s hard to blame them with weather like this. Marvelous, isn’t it? cool

In other news, I can’t believe I almost forgot how good churros are. grin ^_^;;

Found a third party display stand for a Gundam model. It's for the Nadleeh, clear plastic rods attach to it, holding the pieces of the Vitrue to illustrate the armour shedding off.

Don't know if I should buy it, I tend to display my figurines without stands unless there's a specific pose I'm trying to get (which is rare).

I've noticed that when I listen to a U.S. state song, there's always a comment from somebody saying that they've never heard that song before despite living in that particular state for a very long time.

Well they're not played nearly as often as "The Star Spangled Banner".
