    I gotta comment on the mid 70s thing and how great it is to hear that. I have also been into computers since the late 70s (well and early 80s) although I imagine I got started a little younger than you … like I was 8 and writing basic/ assembly on my various machines back in the day (TRS-80 Model III, Tandy CoCo 2, Coleco Adam, C64). So I’m only mid 50s and I thought I was the old guy around here :) But damn if you don’t give me hope that I can stay like this for many years to come.







  • I doubt there is an adult alive that has kids old enough to have issues like this that hasn’t also had issues like this. They really aren’t that uncommon. Google the percentage of women that get them during pregnancy. And men also can have terrible bathroom habits that lead to them often using the toilet to escape for some quiet time (guilty as charged).

    Just remember though, these people wiped your ass for several years so I doubt very likely they will give it much thought.

    If my kid came tome with this problem I’d be like “yeah those can be quite painful and uncomfortable, let’s go get this looked at”. Just remember first and foremost, your parents are just people and likely want the best for you. This really isn’t a reason to be embarassed.








  • I’ve wondered this exact question. How does any of this evil fascist shit benefit the average Trump voter.

    Trade tariffs just make things like durable goods more expensive.

    Deporting migrant workers is going to make food more expensive.

    Killing all references to Trans people doesn’t do anything but hurt the Trans folks.

    Killing all references to climate change is just going to eventually destroy the whole planet (well just our existence on it… the planet will be fine eventually).

    Killing the Dept of Education is just going to make us all dumber.

    DOGE is just a meme dept whose soul purpose seems to be to let Elon enact his revenge.

    RFK2 gets in charge of all the countries medicine and vaccines and bans it all just in time for Pandemic 2, Electric Boogaloo.

    So basically things get a lot more expensive, the rich get richer, lots of people die, and the world becomes a generally more shitty place. Yay!!! Let’s Go Brandon!!
