What is it? I used to drive an Avalanche lol (*ducks*)

got a totally unexpected phone bill for $1500 which i have no way of dodging. The rate your network tells you you'll be charged for calling a satellite phone is apparently not the rate you actually pay. Even when you're told you'll just pay international rates, it's actually fucking $7/minute. And there's nothing you can do about it. FML

Planet 1.3x the size of Earth is found orbiting in habitable zone of Proxima Centauri (the closest star to our own)
this is really nuts
spotting rocky earth-sized planets is rare, having one be at the temperature for liquid water is huge. the fact that its the at the closest star system is crazy.
smaller planets are spotted less but thats probably to do with the fact that they are harder to spot, so maybe that explains it being coincidentally close-by. still quite significant in its implications.
sup overlords
News of the year IMO. It's the only extrasolar planet that, maybe, perhaps, we might be able to send a probe to.

Just died two days ago. Been in the family since 1995 and had just passed the venerable age of 22 a few weeks back. Deaf but otherwise pretty healthy until the last few days. Godspeed my prehistoric kitteh <3

Most people prob watch TOWIE at least semi-ironically. Chuck it on in the background for a lol maybe so at least you have something to talk about

my cousin made these cool beer openers with a really strong magnet embedded in the back of the wood, i really enjoy using it and displaying my caps
On that note, is anyone else here interested in collecting caps? I have a deep photo frame on the wall filled with caps, I almost have enough to fill the second one but I've apparently drunk every drink there is to drink in this area with a vaguely interesting cap. Got lots of doubles for swappin', mostly Ontario/upstate NY but also some Eurobooze, anyone fancy a swap by post?

This is a bit more kvlt than monastic but you could still count it as "spiritual"

Transit of Mercury today. Trying to project it onto paper but it's bloody cloudy innit
-
First time I heard any of it was live which was neat. Quite enjoyed it and still listen to it innit

On weekend went to funeral of a relative's stillborn child. Pretty rough, as you can imagine. But it was also super awkward because only just prior to hearing that awful news, we'd announced to family that we were forming babby, and this was the first time since then that we'd seen any family. So, lots of people uneasily wishing us congrats at possibly the most inappropriate venue imaginable... Never felt more uncomfortable in my life

Just started Turn (American Revolution era spy shit), looks good so far
-
The Raft tracks are fantastic, in the jungly Kid Spatula vein
-
Is there an Official WATMM-endorsed contender for either/both/neither/Bloomberg party? WATMM should vote as a block so that American WATMMers' voices are taken seriously in Congress (or whatever its called, i dunno im not american lol)

Not-very-well-focused microscope shots of rocks, look quite IDM

Based on my shitting patterns, I suspect I might be a glutard. Also Leapfrog keeps freezing my machine despite rolling back system to a point when it worked fine, hmmm

Had the Test EP on earlier, Sublim is a fantastic album but not heard it for yonks, cheers Lopez for reminding me about it and cheers Dangers you scrawny bald genius

Watching the Life series narrated by David Attenborough right now. Really good. Very similar to Planet Earth, but goes a bit more in depth.
Have you seen Life on Earth - the Attenborough one from the 70s? Still his best IMO
The Beeb has made some incredible doc series over the years, two of my favs are The Planets (late 1990s - solar system, space exploration), and Earth Story (mid 90s, geology/earth history) - both a tad out-of-date now, but both beautifully put together and well worth a lazy Sunday watch

almost done with Leviathan Wakes. Sci-fi action stuff, it's a lot of fun although I'm a bit tired of characters saying that stuff will "crack like an egg".
-
His manhole cover photo collection is pretty IDM tho

wake up sheeple
open your mind

I just touched my christmas tree before opening my laptop, didn't realise my hands were covered with spruce sap, which has now been inadvertently applied across most of my keyboard making it sticky and yucky
Also I have no biscuits to have with a tea this morning

Surely you only need to deduce that, since humans are conscious* and intelligent*, then other animals must also be, at least to some extent? That conclusion should be obvious to anyone except creationists and Rene Descartes
*whatever those mean
