At the end of day 2, he says that Rhinehart encouraged him to only eat as much as he needs, and only when hungry. The logs of days 3, 4 and 5 are much more positive once he starts eating only when he's hungry.

They'd all be expelled, we'd hold elections and elect a new congress that does the exact same thing. The problem isn't the people in congress, its the people they represent.

Why is Aspergers presented as a third option? I'm pretty sure having AS doesn't just take you off the Introvert/Extrovert spectrum. And while many people with AS are introverted, it isn't always the case. I feel like thi

As someone who did some theater in college, the same thing is happening to scripts. You can't really get a look at them without buying them off Dramatists Play Services or Samuel French. It's hard enough to get people interested i

I felt exactly the same way. I "tolerated" the gun fights in Infinite, but the story and world-building were what I was really there for. I was talking with a friend today about how interesting it would've been if Elizabeth&#

It's the kind of thread that really has no home. Proggit would shoot it down for being frivolous, HN would probably do the same if it was a self-post. I'm glad that StackOverflow leaves closed questions visible. A lot of the value
