So, I was just curious to see what kind of life that Carl Oligarch guy wound up living, and I think he's fictitious. I went to look up yearbook information for 2008 and 2009. Looked up names with O and these are the only people that show up. Josh is in both of them though.

Skimmed through all 100 something names in both yearbooks, and no Carl's or Karl's either. I'll go through 2007 and 2006 in a bit, but I need a small break.

Because Carl is from when Josh lived in ND not Casper. He is real and people already found him on Facebook img_1_1737235997710.jpg img_2_1737236005716.jpg img_3_1737236012761.jpg img_4_1737236071755.jpg

It still amazes me that people have the extra dough to door dash someone food across the country for shits and giggles.

Or four-wheeler, because they're more fun.

Instantly made me think of the first one.
It's off topic but genuinely makes me giggle that the boglim is absolutely lapped by great apes ability to perform complex tasks.
Hell they're even able learn how to do something the gothic bad boy himself is incapable of doing...

Great post, I enjoyed seeing them lather up. That's fascinating that one day, all orangutans in the area may barter fruit for soap. And you are correct, that monkey used more soap in a few minutes than Cobes does in a year. We need to get these orangutans some Tactical Soap, TMDWU.

IIRC, This is mostly from osmotic stress because the concentration of sugar is so high. Honey diluted in water like what's happening with the bog meads is just a sugar source for the microbes. When you're making meads, you're using that as food for your yeast to ferment into alcohol.

Also some bacteria can survive in honey. You're not supposed to feed honey to infants due to a possibility of it being contaminated with Clostridium botulinum- the bacteria that makes the toxin used in botox. Even in tiny amounts the toxin is potent enough to cause flaccid paralysis and kill infants.

I asked a beekeeper, and basically it's gotta be "raw-ass" honey, out of a hive. It's due to the crystalline structure, and the bees maintaining it.

But it's probably because it was alcohol, too.

It comes from internet people not being exposed to real, in person interactions. The internet basically makes everyone autistic, unable to understand behavior outside references to their favorite media or headcanon. Another way you can see it is listening to how a lot of content makers (especially faceless ones) mispronounce slightly uncommon words - they've only read it in posts or chat and they have poor understanding of how it works (like where accents fall, how vowels change depending on contexts or etymologies, which are usually picked up socially with usage).

Sort of, but instead of information degeneration between communicators due to high signal to noise, it's because there's a lack of context and communication vectors (body language, tone, context clues, etc), so they never develop the ability. They're not genetically predisposed, they're essentially trained to be autistic. I'd say the problem is exacerbated by the dopamine casino of social media.

Another way you can see it is the sheer gullibility on the internet of people who didn't grow up with it (namely boomers). I'm not SUPER fond of such broad strokes, but the best balance seems to be millenials, because they still had to grow up interacting with humans without screen distractions and being inside and terminally online was a fairly fringe behavior.

Many Egyptian, Chinese and European cultures embalmed their dead in honey. It's great for preserving bodies.


People in China would voluntarily eat and drink only honey, bathe in honey until they began to sweat honey before dying from the diet; they were sealed into a casket filled with honey to create Chinese medicine "strong enough to cure a broken limb."
