I’m really sorry I was never there for you. You didn’t deserve that. You’re an incredibly special and amazing person and I’ll always regret not being there for these moments.

I’m so proud of you and how you succeeded without my support.

I want you to know that I’m here for you now and can’t wait to celebrate your successes and support you through life’s speed bumps.

Love,

Dad

Negasonic Teenage Warhead is so good that they named (created) the comic book character after the song, not the other way around.

How has nobody mentioned the term “pocket veto” yet? He can just stick it in a drawer and never sign it. His lackeys in congress can recess within the 10-day time period (you know, Thanksgiving) and then it’s dead. They have to reintroduce the bill and go through it all over again.

What if it already exists but you’ve been made to forget about it?

Great question.

In culinary school there is an entire module on butchering - mammals, birds, fish, etc. I’ve always said my ability to cleanly and safely butcher all the things would make me very valuable in a post-apocalyptic scenario.

Creating and maintaining a fire isn’t easy but it also isn’t hard. Unrelated to culinary school, I’ve learned the skill to create charcoal from solid wood in a primitive low-oxygen furnace - that would be useful.

Even without metallurgy, I could probably cook on slates and stones, or create pottery solid enough to boil water. If I’m around during or after the Iron Age, I’ve got all the cast iron I could want.

Ingredients would probably be limited. My knowledge of food chemistry would definitely help. Without refrigeration I’d have to rely heavily on pickling and salting. If I could learn glassblowing, we could move on to canning as a preservative.

Yeah I can go pretty damn far back. (username)
