Futurama did a good sketch on the concept with "lightspeed briefs" where they were advertising in Fry's dreams. Principle has always been the same.

I feel obligated to post the transcript for this reference.

Leela: Didn’t you have ad’s in the 20th century?

Fry: Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines. And movies. And at ball games and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts and written on the sky! But not in dreams. No siree!

Steamed broccoli with a little soy sauce & Sriracha is one of my absolute favorite snacks. Cauliflower, too. I'm gonna go make some.

Hey I'm driving through tomorrow, I might go see if they'll bring it down $500 or so!

My jar steak always comes out great!

It's a Wasilla listing, it might be genuine.

Now that you're old you smell funny and I don't want to be around you

I've broken many bones in my life, but the standout is my hip. I was 34 when I fractured the femoral neck in my hip joint. When I get up after sitting on a chair/couch for a while, my hip pops LOUD, and normally is pleasant feeling (sometimes really, really not), but anyone in earshot immediately looks to me with alarm because they can't place what popped to make the sound.

Me: points to hip--> it's my hip cracking, don't worry! Them: 🤮

There is a news logo on the bottom. This is likely a still from an interview about the incident

I can't believe everybody's just ad-libbing!

I'm about 75% through The Ritual by Adam Nevill. It is also a movie. I really enjoy how he writes his characters, and the book is legitimately scary and creepy. I have to set it down sometimes.

On the scary/creepy note, another amazing book and movie is Birdbox by Josh Malerman. That book legitimately terrified me.

Pearl by Josh Malerman (Bird Box).

It's about a pig on a small farm that can seep into your mind and make you do and see terrible things. I picked it up after reading Bird Box and a few other books of his, which I enjoyed. I expected to give up on it based on the silly 80s horror movie premise, but the book is truly demented and creepy and I felt existentially weird after reading it

With some dogs, anyone in the room is smelling their feet.

Thanks, Meat Cat!

That pronunciation always drives me wild! it only makes sense to call it data.

What, you don't like cold soured apple curd tart cream? It has nutmeg in it!

Damn, the shooter took that bullet casing to the face pretty well

Is it eating a pork rind?
