@Handy:
Hi Handy, it's so nice to hear you're the president of the commenters club! That's so cool. Can you do me a favor? If you can, will you walk over to the Crash Course in Science CD and see if "Kitchen Motors" is on it? The guys from the previous show were too busy to check but maybe you can find a moment between pledges to check for me. Just if it's easy for you to do so. If not, no problem, buddy!

Stances on book-reading and AI aside, I think both Mark and Matt would agree that boondoggle is a great word.

Severance is on Apple +. Mark is a confirmed hypocrite. CANCELLED.

Matt can read Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass, then watch the movie that Micah recommended to Jim the Poet.

AI will destroy humanity and creativity and that's a fact.

On the book recommendations, This is an Interesting look at how 50’s nostalgia influenced pop culture into the late 60s & 70s. “Happy Days” is at the center of this academic study and jumping the shark. It’s very good pop culture history.

No, don't do it Matt. You can read a book and keep your surveillance phone.
♥

I just got a new battery for my surveillance phone and used a new dumb phone for the week it was in the shop. I have to say, it kind of sucked. But might have been better with a touch screen, texting with buttons is just awful.

Happy to do my little bit! :) Thank you!
