**Official** Physicists are freaks and very weird dudes LC Thread

I have a gut feel that kids who grew up with something tend to be in balance with it.

It’s the people who get hit with a new information-spreading technology later in life which they have no defenses for I worry more about (IE - Boomers and FoxNews and social media, my generation and social media).

They talk a lot about how we’re in the middle of an epistemological crisis on the trillbillies, but they don’t have much to say on what to do about it. As long as everyone believes a bunch of nonsense about everything and the profit motive is the only real force moving us, I don’t see how we’re not heading for imminent collapse.

My ex and I have been friends but I guess she’s not talking to me because I went to Costa Rica. Never mind she and I were going to “bubble” together - in which case I never would have gone. But instead now she’s hooking up with her ex-boss - and they already caught some sickness they thought was covid at first. So clearly there are some leaks in the system. Also he’s married but his wife is studying on the East Coast and supposedly he has a multi-year hall pass. But my ex is apparently shaming me anyway.

But anyway that’s not the point. The point is I had a lucid dream about her last night where we were somehow back at my college, planning to live together, but she turned our house into a huge party house with tons of people constantly coming and going.

The weird part is a) I remembered it very clearly and b) I kept falling back asleep and picking right back up where the dream left off. I hardly ever remember dreams, and never remember one continuing for so long between multiple wake-ups.

The weird part is I’ve been thinking about her all morning and having an urge to text her. But fuck her she didn’t reply to me multiple times last week. She tweeted me. Fuck that. So I’m not gonna do that. I’m legit done trying to be friends for a while unless she reaches out.

But it makes me wonder, other times in the past when I pined for someone all of a sudden - maybe it’s because I dreamt about them all night, but didn’t remember any of it?

I’m not huge on the unconscious mind etc but it seems weird to me that you would assume the dream causes the pining and not vice versa.

Well I didn’t pine that much yesterday. But yeah I’m sure the pining causes the dream. But then maybe the dream amplifies it the next day at a subconscious level.

My son is playing some Sesame Street game on my phone and I hear some character telling elmo “did you know tomatoes and avocados are fruits and not vegetables?”. That stupid argument is my biggest dumb pet peeve ever. Was fighting the urge to break my phone and burn down PBS offices.

If the food item in question is better consumed with ranch dressing, then it’s a veggie; if it’s better with ice cream, then it’s a fruit.

Spread the word. End the debate.

But raspberries make it into salads AND desserts, now I’m completely unsure

Ranch dressing is awful.

Fruit in desserts is awful.

Raspberries are better with ice cream. And salads that come with raspberries usually are served with vinaigrette dressing.

I forgive you for disliking ranch because I hate ice cream. We can’t all have perfect palletes.
