The Roald Dahl story about the dude who gets to "live" forever as a brain in a jar certainly made an impression on 11-year-old me. aaaaaaaaa

His autobiography made a huge impression on me as a child and it wasn't until I was much older and had history degrees that I really realized he was the prototypical imperial subject, working for shell and flying planes around Africa and just generally being a cog in the extractive colonial apparatus, which he characterizes as a big fun adventure and is how I read it as a kid to

If I ever have kids I'll have them read Dahl but he's certainly representative of a lot of the cultural baggage from the mid-20th century people like to not acknowledge if they can avoid it

...I never thought of it like that before. Hmm.

A quote from his site, describing the internet:
'Tools to help us better communicate, write, explore, and learn. (Of course, soon to be adding hack, steal, exploit, deceive, bully, and maybe destroy democracy, but hey, what’re a few wrinkles? We’ll figure this out. Or not.)

My advice if you don't like the taste is to do what I did: fall backwards down a flight of stairs and sever your olfactory nerve. Then it just tastes like Leaves!

What? Where is the olfactory nerve? Can it be re-connected? Have you lost all flavours or what?
So many questions.

I fell backwards and hit the back of my head on some very unfriendly London concrete. It made my brain bounce back and forth, and the olfactory nerve either went "ping" like a maiden aunt's gusset in an Ealing comedy, or the olfactory bulb went to buggery.

Either way, I've not been able to smell anything for about six years now. My sense of taste is suuuuper basic. Sweet/sour/salt/savoury/bitter. Like, I can tell the difference between a burger and a pizza, but a whole lot of the joy of food and drink has gone. Plus I've accidentally drank a *load* of off milk. Which is gross as hell.

No idea if it'll ever come back! I'm terrified of gas leaks! I was once in the basement of a pub, waiting for my time on stage, and I was the last person to realise that the pub was on fire! It's not the best!

That sounds awful.
