I really enjoyed the podcast but if you find it's bringing you down then cut it loose and we'll all look forward to hearing you on F+. Be well!

Godspeed, Lou. Can't blame you for wanting to hide that content. Hopefully this helps you out a bit.

I'll keep watching out for and enjoying your appearances on The F+, but please please PLEASE let us know here if you start another solo podcast.

P.S. There's still a public transit bus in Texas running around with one of your stickers on the fuel tank! It's out of the public eye, though.

Extra Credit swears it was unintentional but unfortunately we have more masturbation content from Reddit. Editing schedules can be unkind.

And it made one-eighth the difference.

To be fair any document involving reddit is inevitably going to descend into discussion about masturbation, that is the natural state of reddit.

There is in fact a bit of another instance of a dude who gets turned on looking at dudes getting turned on looking at dudes getting it on at least, that was fun

The Semen Retention doc had a gay guy desperately looking for other gay retainers but mostly all they got was "lesbians make sense because women are hot, being gay or bisexual doesn't."

I know the communities are different but also they aren't they're all just dudes talking about jerking off on reddit.

Plus there could be one document for F-Plus and one for EC. I'm sure there's plenty enough material to warrant two docs worth of sad insanity.

Just listened to the lottery episode and have to explain to my roommates why just blurting out random numbers is the funniest thing on earth to me right now.

Also thanks for the laughs Lou, but definitely do what you need to do. Do you still stream games sometimes? I enjoyed tuning into those sometimes.

God, this reminds me of this dude i overheard at Rennasaince Faire* who trapped this couple in a 20 minute conversation that they were too polite to walk away from where he explained in great detail the story that he was writing that was basically just Avatar the Last Airbender, The Witcher, Shadow and a Bone, and Harry Potter all put together

extremely large and incredibly huge
Back on the topic of inexplicable fanon wikis: The Googology Wiki, despite being hosted on fandom.com, is a serious and (if you have the requisite math background) coherent place for systematically creating and describing extremely large numbers. You could argue this is a fanon wiki, but it's much more intent on adhering to the 'canon' than most of those.

What I actually want to draw attention to is the Fictional Googology Wiki, where people go to just yell nonsense into the void. A lot of insane gibberish in here, ranging from extended rants to weird stubs with a few words and symbols on them. You can go to pretty much any page and encounter something completely baffling.

I feel like actually reading a book would have ameliorated most of the problems the people in the fantasy writing sub have. Like to the Yakuza guy, just off the top of my head Light From Uncommon Stars is about music and video games and works without namedropping Youtube links

It's... very difficult. I can get the hilt and the guard, once you understand that he literally wants his character to hold the thing like a pistol you can fathom that. Stupid, of course, but you can get it. But the description of the blade makes... little sense. I THINK it's supposed to be a multi-edged thing like a shaving razor? Except he talks about it being concave, so the blades would be on the inside? I don't get it.
