I am firmly in redneck land. When I have to do business "in town", I have a redneck outfit I wear to blend in.

Also keep an orange cap on the dash of my truck, as that's one of the signs that "I'm a redneck too".

what percentage of the people around you do you think are also doing this

Not so much these days, but not that long ago I was in hotels every week, and I'd get to know staff and get upgrades frequently such that I was staying in all these sweeeet hotel rooms on the reg, as the kids say.


One time though they gave me this honeymoon sweet, not my normal room package.... And it had this big giant jacuzzi bathtub in the center of this huge bathroom.

I liked nothing about it, but I figured might as well take a bubble bath, and poured in the contents of this personal sized bottle.

Suds start rising and rising and more suds and rising and suds and overflowing going everywhere, suds......

I spent a good hour cleaning up.

weeeeelllllllll the suds keep coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming

I wonder if we actually averted the Y2K apocalypse through people's efforts, or if it was always just a big nothing burger.

We did, by rotating ~all the computers and software that mattered. But if we hadn't, it woulda been an apocalypse on the order of "grocery store doesn't take credit cards for a while" and "some ATMs don't work", for us normies, not "planes falling out of sky" or "zombies in streets" level of poo poo.

AIUI, in the US the government required demonstration that systems + software could function with year set to 2000, and refused to do business with anything that couldn't. So once that had been done, the only risk was that something had been missed. I mention financial stuff above because it wasn't uncommon in the past for them to prefer storage as coded decimal rather than rather than "normal" binary (because 99 rolling over to 00 only matters if you're in base 10, not base 2).

Update: I somehow was mixing up my thyroid with my lymph nodes, not sure how that happened (I didn’t take anatomy and just knew both are neck area). Waiting on a throat culture test thingy to see if the antibiotics I got last week just weren’t working, but my ears and chest are clear now…

Not a doctor, but while it still sucks, I'm pretty sure swollen lymph nodes is waaaay better than swollen thyroid. Hope you feel back to normal soon.

I have been meaning to get into his work for years. I guess this is the year. Do you know where a good start would be?

Ligotti mainly writes short stories, so any of the collections (My Work Is Not Yet Done, Grimscribe, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, etc.). My favorite of their works (and the one I started with) is The Conspiracy against the Human Race but that's more philosophy.
