That’s actually a really good question because there’s no way, even with 100% of the sun’s mass going into the effort, that we could actually zap everything in the galaxy to death. We’d have to instead have a signal so depressing that, as soon as a species decodes it, they’d be guaranteed to start sending out a similar signal and destroy all life within zapping range.

What part of “America” don’t you get, tankie?

Thank you for “sonder;” I previously only knew sonder as the sort of middle-ground hotel/airbnb company. Now that I know the meaning of the word, I was somewhat recently in a situation where I had weed in a city but the only safe place to smoke it was where I purchased it, so I went way beyond my normal intake and smoked a joint of high-grade stuff to myself. On the way back to my hotel, walking through a dense cloud of people, I expected to get the paranoia and want to retreat even faster but instead got the sonder epiphany and just stood still in the town square for I don’t know how long. If you had asked me about the concept of sonder the day before, I would have said that I agree with the idea, of course. Feeling it, though, is so different. I heard Bjork’s Anchor Song in my head and was stunned when she got to “this is where I’m staying/this is my home;” I hadn’t consciously selected it for that message but there it was. The city is still very high, so to speak, on my list of places to settle down but I realize that I’ll have to go back to separate my feelings for the city from the whole-joint-to-the-face.

Did you store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight?

I can see both changes making sense. When they wanted to open the floodgates to whatever reality slop gets eyeballs, it made sense to keep the HBO brand free from the slop stigma. But then somebody realized that things have changed forever; there’s never going to be a way to profit from “HBO” being limited to the good shows, so let’s just re-associate it with the streaming service and draw in a few older people who remember when it was the channel you’d watch for at least 10 seconds before clicking onward because there was a decent chance they were showing something good.

Looking into it

That’s where mine was., too Could have been the same one!

How do real people accept the randomly-generated name? The program says “here’s what you’ll be known as here, unless you spend 30 seconds trying maybe three other things” and they’re like “no no, I’ll keep the garbage thx.”

To put a stop to it, right?

Did earlier presidents have Rand McNally on speed-dial?
