[02:06:13] ski/rizon "for a cold","u dont need to","take a med for","the rest of","ur life" -- it's more lucrative, if you have to

[02:06:26] ski/rizon bonsoir

[02:07:24] ski/rizon i was going to ask, did you swim this week ?

[02:08:07] ski/rizon hm

[02:08:45] ski/rizon perhaps you could try to get more into making good tasting, and healthy, food ?

[02:09:10] ski/rizon perhaps on other networks, ComputerTech ?

[02:09:53] ski/rizon yea, i just meant like starting to cook stuff from the ground, for yourself (and i guess for your dad too, if he'd like to), sometimes

[02:10:25] ski/rizon i mean, trying to force oneself to do stuff one doesn't enjoy tends to not work that well

[02:11:24] ski/rizon like, you could try making omelette, or baking bread, or making a soup or stew

[02:11:56] ski/rizon right. but you have to do things in a way that you'll associate positive memories with it

[02:12:18] ski/rizon like making a nice bread, perhaps with some tasty spices

[02:13:16] ski/rizon if you don't try to change things .. then perhaps

[02:13:25] ski/rizon small steps

[02:13:38] ski/rizon you can't start with a big change

[02:14:41] ski/rizon yea .. i can understand that :(

[02:16:40] ski/rizon ComputerTech : can't you turn it off ?

[02:18:17] ski/rizon sushi-chan : it's a secret

[02:19:00] ski/rizon poles want you to believe they have no secret. that's their only national security secret

[02:19:36] ski/rizon in several toilets ?

[02:25:15] ski/rizon sushi-chan : twin toilets <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RU8UoPVQDN4&t=6m10s>

[02:26:21] ski/rizon NiniGeo2 : cute and creepy

[02:26:47] ski/rizon sushi-chan : are their heads actually smaller, or just their brains ?

[02:28:10] ski/rizon (reminds me of one of the Oz books, in which there were people living in a city, who had flat heads, and kept their brains in metal jars/cans. some more influential people had acquired more cans than others)

[02:29:32] ski/rizon NiniGeo2 : "Fran Bow","Little Misfortune" are also cute. and "Darq" also had a nice atmosphere

[02:29:56] ski/rizon sushi-chan : i think there's also some condition that just makes the brain itself smaller, not the skull

[02:30:33] ski/rizon yes, it's a good game

[02:30:36] ski/rizon we possibly had

[02:31:07] ski/rizon NiniGeo2 : "The Excavation of Hob's Barrow" is a nice point-and-click

[02:32:28] ski/rizon sushi-chan : reminds me of some advice in a book, for someone who'd lost blood, that they should put an iron nail through an apple, over night, then remove the nail and eat the apple, then repeat same thing each night

[02:33:00] ski/rizon what kind of game is that, NiniGeo2 ?

[02:33:24] ski/rizon the french fries ComputerTech ?

[02:37:24] ski/rizon do you think you might like making some simple food ?

[02:37:45] ski/rizon not too complicated to make

[02:38:19] ski/rizon probably healther than premade

[02:38:51] ski/rizon like, even making a cake would probably be a step in the right direction

[02:39:24] ski/rizon although, say boiling eggs, or making scrambled eggs, or making omelette, or perhaps a simple soup, could also work

[02:40:08] ski/rizon hm, i know more or less nothing about rollercoasters, sorry

[02:42:01] ski/rizon so better start at another end, then, i guess

[02:42:27] ski/rizon i mean, try to attack the problem from another direction/place

[02:42:32] ski/rizon can you make crêpes ?

[02:44:12] ski/rizon if there's any park, or like place with a nice view, you could e.g. make crêpes, and make some kind of filling (fish, meat, whatever, as long as you make it yourself), roll that into the crêpes, takes the rolls with you, when going there, and eating them there

[02:44:18] ski/rizon sushi-chan ^

[02:44:45] ski/rizon or if you have a garden, you could eat it out there

[02:47:18] ski/rizon isn't it more common that the weather over the british isles later comes over France ?

[02:47:43] ski/rizon i didn't

[02:48:12] ski/rizon ah, that .. yea, i know (a little) about that

[02:48:51] ski/rizon there's a place called Carnac (sp ?) in Bretagne, with some kilometes long parallel rows of raised stones

[02:49:14] ski/rizon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnac_stones

[02:49:39] ski/rizon Lorraine is pretty close too, i think

[02:49:58] ski/rizon and Langue-d'-oc in the south

[02:50:25] ski/rizon wasn't it Richelieu or someone who started centralizing around Paris more ?

[02:50:43] ski/rizon it's not a new thing, anyway

[02:50:56] ski/rizon apparently France has a lot of canals, though

[02:51:48] ski/rizon wasn't it Monet who often painted on a boat on rivers and canals ? or maybe i'm thinking of Rodin ?

[02:52:00] ski/rizon oh, the water quality is that bad ?

[02:52:10] ski/rizon well, these are painters

[02:52:30] ski/rizon aren't all french very knowledgable about french artists ?

[02:52:56] ski/rizon ya, i'm just pulling your braid

[02:54:06] ski/rizon ehlo CrystalMath

[02:54:20] ski/rizon might be possible to change it to make oneself weaker, sushi-chan ?

[02:54:32] ski/rizon (like radiation, e.g.)

[02:54:41] ski/rizon mutations

[02:54:58] ski/rizon (causing cancers, most probably)

[02:55:28] ski/rizon well .. there's many more ways in which one could be dumb, than ways in which one could be smart, i think

[02:55:37] ski/rizon which means that being smart will be harder

[02:55:43] ski/rizon (or becoming)

[02:56:18] ski/rizon you could sing about vegetables

[02:56:45] ski/rizon warped proteins

[02:57:10] ski/rizon it's a kind of disease

[02:57:50] ski/rizon "mad cow disease" / Jacob Creutzfeldt disease

[02:57:57] ski/rizon also Scrapie, for sheep, iirc

[03:00:02] ski/rizon also Kuru is a prion disease. it was common among a tribe on Papua New Guinea who would traditionally eat the brains of passed relatives

[03:06:30] ski/rizon sushi-chan : or at least ask someone else to look up the symptoms

[03:07:40] ski/rizon (but then i'm also almost never sick)

[03:08:56] ski/rizon last time was maybe eight years ago, or so, when i got lyme's

[03:09:57] ski/rizon add some cinnamon

[03:10:36] ski/rizon yea, eating penicillin for ten days sucked

[03:10:56] ski/rizon after a few days, i noticed my breath smelling acrid

[03:11:03] ski/rizon and i'm sure it messed up my bowels a bit

[03:11:15] ski/rizon 'ello MonkeySays

[03:11:34] ski/rizon "walking pnuemonia" ?

[03:11:43] ski/rizon dunno .. how would i know ?

[03:12:34] ski/rizon not sure i noticed things appearing brighter, or noticed becoming more tired in eyes

[03:13:03] ski/rizon well .. i don't think i've ever really been drunk

[03:13:43] ski/rizon (but i don't recall feeling dizzy or anything)

[03:14:01] ski/rizon (also, no idea who my doc would be, really)

[03:14:15] ski/rizon did you add cinnamon, sushi-chan ?

[03:15:25] ski/rizon ouch :(

[03:16:19] ski/rizon the bacteria got into your blood ?

[03:18:35] ski/rizon did they let pressure off your brain ?

[03:19:36] ski/rizon adro : non-REM dreams, too ?

[03:21:42] ski/rizon Ryu : the things sounded distorted ?

[03:22:48] ski/rizon hello Armorall

[03:23:30] ski/rizon we're just people. randomly circling around ComputerTech, in a sunwise direction

[03:24:36] ski/rizon sushi-chan : it kinda reminds me of my SP experience, from the description

[03:25:30] ski/rizon Sleep Paralysis

[03:27:40] ski/rizon adro : or, you mind wakes, but your body's still asleep

[03:28:28] ski/rizon sushi-chan : i wonder whether dissociatives (ketamine, i think ?) makes you feel similar to that

[03:30:00] ski/rizon sushi-chan : perhaps they wake you up with dopamine, then, as adro suggested

[03:30:44] ski/rizon adro : oh, Gapapentin ? isn't that the one that can induce lucid dreams ?

[03:32:24] ski/rizon PapaFrog,Armorall : does it seem to induce LDs, for you ?

[03:32:45] ski/rizon Zack : did you boil it ?

[03:33:56] ski/rizon PapaFrog : does it seem to induce LDs, for you ?

[03:36:03] ski/rizon Armorall : why shouldn't they ?

[03:38:08] ski/rizon (don't worry, it's beer-flavored tea)

[03:40:02] ski/rizon what were you doing, Ryu ?

[03:40:38] ski/rizon i guess there could be a film, "Druggiespotting" ?

[03:41:22] ski/rizon adro : what was it used for, ooc ?

[03:41:37] ski/rizon mhm, Ryu

[03:43:11] ski/rizon (i'm now reminded of a radio show, one episode they called a nutritionist, and asked her about drugs. when she suggested they could try something more healthy, like carrots, they asked whether you smoke or freebase carrots)

[03:45:19] ski/rizon well, they were prank calling

[03:46:07] ski/rizon "soft fish" -- as in (partially ?) raw ? in a taco ?

[03:47:49] ski/rizon hm, Kitboga is famous for reverse scamming. scamming scammers back

[03:48:26] ski/rizon i dunno .. is coffee or alcohol more used ?

[03:53:12] ski/rizon sushi-chan : what will you try to bake/cook ?

[03:53:27] ski/rizon coffee cake ?

[03:54:13] ski/rizon sushi-chan : there's recipes where you put some coffee into the batter

[03:54:48] ski/rizon sushi-chan : i mean, put real coffee in it

[03:55:03] ski/rizon that's why i did

[03:55:06] ski/rizon what

[03:57:59] ski/rizon there used to be a soft drink here, that would turn your tongue blue

[03:59:21] ski/rizon careful, you might hit them with the bat, foxy

[04:00:08] ski/rizon sushi-chan : it's like a long club thing you use to hit a ball, in some ball games

[04:00:46] ski/rizon sushi-chan : although i think they're often brownish, rather than black .. and only related to mice

[04:01:35] ski/rizon iirc, many (most ?) bats eat flower nectar

[04:02:42] ski/rizon there's some species of bats, which have a very long tongue (like longer than the rest of their body). they eat nectar from a flower that only opens at night, and which have a very long tunnel thing the bat has to put tongue through, while flying beside the flower, to get at the nectar

[04:05:05] ski/rizon hm, i saw this documentary, about actual blood-sucking bats. i think it may've been filmed somewhere in the caribbean. one of the crew pretended to be asleep in a chair, to try to lure one of the bats to come over and have a snack .. eventually the bait succeeded in getting a bat over there

[04:08:22] ski/rizon perhaps the discoverer got salmon made by someone named Ella ?

[04:10:42] ski/rizon i thought it was partially based of some voudou stuff ?

[04:13:06] ski/rizon probably less than bullet to stomach

[04:13:56] ski/rizon sushi-chan : there was someone who got a metal bar rammed through skull, and survived

[04:14:20] ski/rizon sushi-chan : but suffered a personality change (for the worse. iirc, moody, more violent, &c.)

[04:15:30] ski/rizon sushi-chan,NiniGeo2 : yea, <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage>

[04:16:24] ski/rizon Armorall : are you sure you're not hypchondriac ?

[04:18:16] ski/rizon cooking pots for helmets

[04:19:57] ski/rizon sushi-chan : well, i have heard the soldiers did, at least sometimes, cook meals in their helmets

[04:22:42] ski/rizon sushi-chan : the space weather ?

[04:22:56] ski/rizon $out

[04:23:24] ski/rizon sushi-chan : there is such a thing as "sun storm forecast"

[04:24:25] ski/rizon sushi-chan : regarding streams of electrically charged particles coming from the sun. causes aurora (borealis and australis). can cause electrical stuff to malfunction and burn, if it's severe enough

[04:26:38] ski/rizon the sun's going through a (roughly) twentytwo year cycle. every eleventh year, more or less, there's more solar activity

[04:29:50] ski/rizon \g : yea, iirc one version of that was that much of the heavy elements got back to Earth, but lighter debris formed the moon
