It’s like a mini veal calf.

Hard to be influenced by ads if one avoids them in the first place. I do a fairly good job at limiting my exposure to advertisements. Some are unavoidable, like outdoor advertisement, or going to a website with ads, but simply tuning out broadcast TV and radio, free streaming services and cable, with a few exceptions of course, eliminates a lot of wasted time on ads. I do pay money though to keep them away on some services. When someone brings up a funny ad that they saw on TV, I often have no clue what they’re talking about, and that’s great. My adversion to advertisement has been around since at least the early 2000s. I believe it was triggered when I sat down and watched the Weird Al movie “UHF” on Comedy Central and it took 4 hours to the end because of all the ads.

I wonder how long it’ll last before it gets all spammy.

RIP. I love that movie too. Virginia Madsen did a wonderful job and the soundtrack by Philip Glass is sublime. It’s nostalgic for me as well, since it takes place in Chicago during my formative years, and it’s a little glimpse of what it was like at that time.

Alister McGee’s Alice. Pretty much a horror version of Alice in Wonderland, and it’s a platformer with trippy graphics. I thought it was pretty fun.

Horses, recreational vehicles, motorhomes, boats, sports cars… I’ll just settle with my watercolors. I will however splurge on Daniel Smith paints.

I play around with the paid version of chatgpt and I still don’t have any practical use for it. it’s just a toy at this point.

Nothing new. My both deceased grandmother’s left behind houses, pole barns full of things. In the 80s, and the family resorted to renting a dumpster to get rid of much of it. It’s kind of sad, but everyone already had lots of junk of their own. I’m guilty of this as well, I’m starting to fill up a storage unit of my own. I however think twice now when I make a purchase.

I wonder what it would be like if it was dipped in batter and deep fried? New state fair/carnival dish perhaps? I tried a deep fried Snickers bar years ago at one and it was worse than I thought it would be.

Lots of money to make one look silly.

Better do it before the full power of exponential growth kicks in.

I’m all for giving credit where credit is due.

Many Boomers voted their progeny away when they put Reagan in office.

My thoughts exactly. I stopped wearing conspicuously branded products when I was in highschool for this very reason.
