FauxPseudo,

“hello, I’d like to get half a ton of dry ice delivered. No, we don’t have a working ventilation system, why do you ask?”

FauxPseudo,

Blankets are highly underrated. Gloves are good too. Reusable, zero carbon emissions after you get them home other than the occasional wash. No carbon or unburned wax buildup on the walls or ceiling. Blankets don’t steal oxygen or create a cold draft by sucking up air from under the door. Sweaters are good too.

FauxPseudo,

My brain is listening and keeps telling me that it’s Kurt Cobain singing for Social Distortion

FauxPseudo,

To be fair they weren’t vegetables. They were bell peppers. Which are fruits. He had it coming.

FauxPseudo,

No. Never.

To see if they still make any sense with the title character removed. The. There is the added complexity of them frequently not making much sense even with the title character. It’s absurdist humor stacked on absurdist humor.

FauxPseudo,

People have trouble with the unedited ones even if English is their native language.

FauxPseudo,

Lies. They go great in stuffing/dressing.

FauxPseudo,

Guys aren’t that picky about size. We are picky about picking women that will pick us back. Size is very low on the priority list. I’m 6’2". Only one girlfriend was taller than 5’4". They all chose me.

FauxPseudo,

This was difficult enough as is. That black cat did not want to go away

FauxPseudo,

I’m waiting for the first blind one

I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org (jeena.net)

I couldn’t find the Flintstones movie from 1994 anywhere but googling it I found it here archive.org/details/the-flintstones_202304 and you can either download it via torrent or directly. On top of it it says that the movie is CC0 which means Public Domain. But that can’t really be, it’s only 29 years old....

FauxPseudo,

The law is tricky. From Wikipedia “For works that received their copyright before 1978, a renewal had to be filed in the work’s 28th year with the Copyright Office for its term of protection to be extended. The need for renewal was eliminated by the Copyright Renewal Act of 1992, but works that had already entered the public domain by non-renewal did not regain copyright protection.”

In the process I found all kinds of issues with the geometry. The door was wider than the step. The tops of the windows are above the logic top of the door. I had to make substantial changes to get it all to work.

FauxPseudo,

Nah. There are enough new characters in modern Heathcliff.

FauxPseudo,

I’m 206 pounds. Realistically I should be closer to 190. So for soybean to provide 380g of protein I’d need to eat a little more than a 1.05 kilos, 2.3 pounds of soybeans per day. That’s an unrealistic number, especially after figuring in its endocrine disrupter issues and that the vast majority of soybeans on the market are grown with unsustainable herbicide practices. Plus eating the same thing every day is the fast track to being extremely unhealthy.

I’m not trying to argue one needs to eat meat but I am strongly suggesting that before you ever make a similar comment in the future you include way more than soybeans as an alternative. Lentils, peas, different types of beans, anything more than one. I’d probably not look at true nuts because those have their own issues with water usage. Peanuts are not true nuts. They offer 25.8g of protein per 100g. Comparable with beef but a 10th the water needed of almonds.

I avoid soy whenever I can because of the environmental and endocrine disrupter issues.

FauxPseudo,

Did you see the part where I said I’m not recommending meat?

FauxPseudo,

My comment was long enough so decided not to argue their premise on how much one needs, but just focus on the problems of eating as much soy as they said it would take using their numbers.

FauxPseudo,

Irrelevant. Because I specifically said I’m not recommending meat but advised they include some alternatives other than soy. Reread what I wrote. I wasn’t saying meat is the way. I was saying that soy by itself is not the way. Other vegan options exist.

FauxPseudo,

Protein isn’t one thing. If you just look at the amount of total protein your body will fall apart. There are 21 amino acids that get counted in the total amount of protein you see on nutritional labels. Consume all the protein you want and it won’t matter if those 21 amino acids aren’t accounted for. Now the body can make more than half of them but there are 9 it can’t and you must eat.

Lentils are the one of the few vegan source of all 21 amino acids. A variety of beans and rice also offer a complete protein profile. Peas are decently high in protein but you will end up deficient in methionine and cysteine if you used it as your main protein source. That can be made up with quinoa and sunflower seeds. Which might sound odd but a cold quinoa, pea salad with sunflower seeds and a vinaigrette is very tasty. Quinoa is also a complete protein but trying to live off it is a thing for the wealthy. The trick is verity. I’ve met too many vegans living off French fries, meets the minimum for everything but leucine, and end up very unhealthy. Don’t look for one or even a couple of super protein sources. Eat a variety. It’s healthier and less likely to result in burnout.

I had considered that Dracula is in serious risk here but hadn’t considered the effects on Moopsy if that would happen. This makes me wonder if someone eaten by Moopsy would turn into a vampire. Would they be a boneless vampire or would the bones regenerate? Or could the bones only regenerate if the new vampire was somehow able to feed on something else? Are boneless vampires viable vampires?

FauxPseudo,

Trouble? With Moopsy? That sounds like Starfleet propaganda. There is no trouble.

FauxPseudo,

Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

FauxPseudo,

Different author. Non Actor Peter Gallagher [NAPG] took over from his uncle near the turn of the century. He has actually been doing Heathcliff longer than the creator did. He decided to go anti-comic absurdist with it. It took two decades for the “joke” to really work but Heathcliff has more fans now than when his uncle retired. He has carved out a niche that no one else is occupied. Absurdist humor isn’t for everyone.

Then there is the issue of some idiot taking something that hardly makes sense and removing the only anchor point most people would have and making it even harder to “get”. So I get your frustration. It’s like watching Monty Python but four actors have been removed. You’re left with a dead parrot and wonder where the funny is.

FauxPseudo,

Cool. Thanks for the reply.

Context, he has replaced the garbage disposal. Not my best work. But it’s a living.
