    Why’s it so quiet up in here. I wanna here y’all’s thoughts.

    I’ll go: I like the Dixie Chicks, and I dislike that they were pressured into rebranding to ‘The Chicks’

      Am a bit bored so checking out things on YouTube. Have seen apartment therapy and now watching a couple of tourists talking about Melbourne. Fitzroy mostly, and they’re making a fuss of Lune. Are the croissants really that good?!

      Now they’re faffing about in the botanic gardens, to the tune of laidback jazz.

      E: that got boring, so now it’s Tracy Marks talking about lsd trials for anxiety. I reckon I’d be too anxious about the lsd to take it.

        Lune croissants are as good as the supermarket croissants in France but 5 x the price

          It actually looks really interesting, and apparently has potential to ‘re-wire’ anxious thinking instead of suppressing it with meds. Has been undergoing trials in America but I don’t know if anything’s happening here yet.

        I can’t say I’ve ever watched it. I bet it’s fun though.

        I’m watching the second American season of Love on the Spectrum and it’s really heartwarming like the others

        I will admit I was left a bit unenthusiastic about them too.

          It was a good win for the Germans but there really wasn’t any competition.

      Wine!!

      Also, isn’t it crazy that gravity caused time dilation!? A clock on an object on an elliptical orbit (i.e not circular) will tick slowrr the closer it is to the body it is orbiting, and tick faster the further away it is.

        the change in time of ticking only changes in relation to the object being orbited

      I’ve been watching cinema therapy talk about the Twilight movies. I never knew they were that bad.

      It’s amusing tho watching Robert Pattinson mess around with different acting styles just for fun.

      Story question. What is a 100 yr old vampire doing going to high school?

        There’s a rather fun fantasy book by Pamela Dean called Tam Lin, where the baddies are a couple of people from Shakespeare’s troupe of actors who now live in Minnesota, where they go to college. Because that’s a protected space where they can learn about the modern world without too many consequences for making mistakes due to ignorance. Perhaps the same applies to the 100 yr old vampire. Though 100 years is approximately 1920 these days, which is not all that different from today.
