@iraantlers I used to set up and take down rides, work the games, a little bit of everything. It was fun to do as a teenager; a different town every week, new people. In hindsight there were problematic aspics but at the time it was an adventure.
My username (pronounced like quade or quaid, like ‘made in the shade’) comes from a nickname given to me by my boss when I worked for a carnival in the 1980’s

body horror
I wonder how hard it'd be to talk if one's tongue was replaced with one of those tongue eating isopods
@1moremin thanks.
it's strange how much i miss the little guys
@1moremin i'm sorry to report that Alfred is no longer with us. I recently lost his pal (and mine) Ghengi as well. unfortunately the life span of jumping spiders is quite short. :(

Does anyone even know what barbizon brick is?
@ingrid definitely could be a character in an Anthony Trollope novel
A spicy political take
@ingrid I think the democrats are terrified of an actual cohesive left movement because it would expose them as a center right party, economically. individual progressive/left policies are very popular outside of a left/right political context. so democrats co-opt popular left progressive leaders when they can and sabotage the ones that they can't.
@1moremin the front for the liberation of molars too!
Friends, the offending molar has been removed from the premises

Le Guin’s advice—read when you cannot write, sleep when you cannot read—has been top of mind all week and I am intensely grateful.
