I grew wat hing my dad, uncles, and aunts play cribbage with my grandfathers. When I was old enough, I was taught to play alongside my cousins. Good for two players, three, most fun with four. When I first met my wife as foreigners abroad, her beauty, grace, intelligence, love of travel and aligning tastes in music, religion and politics were all checking the boxes, but then we played cribbage with paper and coins and I might have realized then that I'd never find anyone like her.

My question wasn't as much about don't do anything and more about whether Mars is the best candidate to achieve colonial stability success. But there have been a lot of good feedback comments helping me reconsider the potential of Mars. My hangup on the protection of a magnetosphere wasn't considering the staggering amount of time it could take for it to erode.

That's really cool. I hadn't heard of that before. I really appreciate you sharing that.

Thank you. I hadn't considered the time it took to dissipate. That changes my thinking. I may be focused too much on the protection of a magnetosphere, thinking Ganymede would be preferable. But maybe the time element outweighs those concerns.

Can someone tell me what the point of that would be without a magnetosphere? "Without a global magnetic field, there was no protection against the solar wind. Mars lost most of its atmosphere and an ocean of water." Wouldn't it all blow away again? (To say nothing of solar radiation)

My lordy, that is a banger of a dump. So many of these resonated with me, a substantially higher percentage than other dumps. My collection thanks you, as I appropriated many of your memes.

There's the reference I came here to find. Sad it was so far down. Are we old?

One factor you may not appreciate is the endurance contest of facilitating trick or treating, on top of regular parenting. It isn't like the old days where kids just go on their own. Parents have to escort the entire night, directing traffic on a 2yo the whole time. Also, it's dark, this dad is racing against the clock here to get the kid home because it's probably already past bedtime. That's a good dad there. He's juggling alot, and not having a hint of a negative tone or raising his voice.

Can confirm. My BIL is a metal head (and a very talented musician I might add), long hair, wears black everything, bracelets, leather, motorcycle, whole 9 yards. He's the lead singer of a band and the dude can thrash and scream. If you didn't know any better, he could be perceived as scary from the outside my many people. But that dude is a great uncle to my three boys: sweet, gentle, endlessly patient. And good BIL too. Love the guy. We couldn't have gotten through COVID without him.

As a brother and now a father of three brothers, I can confirm this accurate. I actually determined which of my sons corresponded with each of the three lions.

Close, but no. It's closer to a german burrito.

Those who have not experienced tragedy and loss can lack the context to appreciate their blessings. Those that sadly have know how quickly it can vanish and how bad it can be, and as such many survivors appreciate the good while it exists.

My wife has had c-sections for all three of our children. She too felt this same sense of lacking an experience somehow portrayed as crucial to being a full mom. It's crazy. Ignore that BS. If you raise a child, with love and diligence, you are the mom. Full stop. I know plenty of gals who vaginally birthed kids who suck as moms. Fuck all that nonsense

My dad was 6'2" but I got my mom's side height (5'9", like geandpa and uncle). My wife is 5'7" and her dad and siblings are all 6'+ too. Guess what genes my kids got? None of that 5' bullshit.

The irony of a wretched woman claiming to worship a diety that literally espoused washing the feet of those less fortunate than you getting uppity about who decorates her hobgoblin toenails.

I would have been disappointed if I had come here, not found someone making this reference, and had to make it myself. Thank you

My VERY-poor BIL is a fantastic photographer that hardly owns any of the equipment he regularly uses. Lots of borrowing, leasing, etc. What he does own he scrapes and scrounges for at the cost of foregoing other luxuries because he is passionate.

I am so annoyed with Rogan and J. Pedersen bois, but many of them are capable of having redeeming qualities. But Alex Jones and his fans... a whole different level of deranged.
