#47 I've said it before, and I'll say it again. No-one in Britain calls it "fairy floss". It's "candy floss" here. It's the Australians who call it that, and tbf, given the size of the spiders, they can call it whatever the fuck they want...

OK, so you triggered my AuDHD "can I find stuff out on the Internet" nerve, so I apologise in advance. There are apparently only 12 Canadian Emmy award nominees, and once you rule out the ones who already have Emmys (and the women), there's only really one left. Now, I could be wrong, but if I'm not, then tell Craig congratulations from me (nerdy Internet rando that I am...). (Also, if you genuinely have a problem with this, then I will delete it, but it really wasn't that difficult to find.)

#22 This has big Harry Dresden Energy, but I don't remember it as a specific scene in the books (mind you I haven't read all the shorts/novellas)...

Neither shaggyroots nor potatocheesmonk have posted in 20 days. I'm hoping they've found something better to do together than post memes...

I've heard (dunno if it's true) that they have to be individually airbrushed out (in every frame...)

I know I sometimes overestimate people, but there's so much "wrong math" in this that it can only be satire...

"50-60 interviews"? At, say, 10 minutes each? 10 hours per day "interviewing.

"Half buy a drink"? Making $300? So 30 spend over $10 (dunno what the cost of hiring/consumables in the machine is)

Well, to start "un-iron-ically", but then you've got the fact that RDJ played "Iron" Man and now Dr Doom - who both "unironically" dress in metal suits. If it was subconscious, then you need to give your subconscious more free reign...

OK, I'm going to upvote you, because that's possibly the most amazing multi-layered pun I've ever heard (either that or I just fell for Poe's law again...)

Is this (the moon leaving) true? Without doing any immediate research, my memory is that the Moon's orbit is increasing because it's "stealing" angular momentum from the Earth (most visibly in tides, but the Earth's spin is slowing too). When the Earth becomes tidally locked to the Moon, there's no more transfer and the Earth-Moon distance stops growing. I also can't remember if this is likely to happen before the Sun goes red giant...

I know this doesn't mean very much, but you have my deepest sympathy, and I'm sending you a virtual hug from several thousand miles away. I can't offer you any concrete advice (and, indeed, the situation is probably too personal for any advice to be any good) but know that I hope that you and your family find somewhere where you can live happily in the future.

Given how often the *prime* directive gets ignored, I can't believe that any rules about holodecks are treated as more than just "guidelines"...

YMMV, but I always used underscores for _italics_ and asterisks for *bold*. (Whatsapp also uses this convention, as well as dashes for -strikethrough-). Mind you, I've been doing this since the early 90s, so this is probably a case of "old man shakes stick at cloud"...
