    The Chat Room

    The email works. Will try to catch up in the next few weeks. Good to see this is still going.

    Embarassing moments you had?

I was 12 or 13 at the time and there was a Cosmopolitan magazine in the toilet which set me off. Either the door didn't lock or I didn't think anyone would open a closed toilet door. My gran...

    Has your life and career gone the way you thought it would?

    I wasn't committed in in 2021 although it came close. Took some time off things that tend to aggravate me (politics/scams especially). All good in general, thanks.

    Yeah I lost my smell in Covid but when it came back it came back differently. Haven't spoken about it much, but it sucks.

    The Chat Room

    It still bugs me that we can't really share internal experience. After my smell came back I have a new sickly-sweet smell that's shared by hand-sanitizer, mint-toothpaste, lots of foods and literal feces. Aftertaste/smell in general but it's enough to put me off my lunch. Being an entirely...

    @LD50 You get people who'll argue just to win, whatever. Points I guess. Debating as a contest, not to learn anything. Being anonymous helps, in the sense that you can imagine your ultimate protagonist. Fighting that is tilting against windmills.
